Mind Over Matter part 3

02/02/2018 20:19

Love is all powerful. Which doesn't mean MOST powerful, but means, has ALL the power. There is NO other power. When God arises, His enemies are scattered. When the light shines, the darkness flees. Now watch this: "And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet...

If you don't mind... it don't matter. That's what's been on my heart recently. The whole idea of how we let ourselves get wrecked so often by the smallest things. Perceived slights. We think someone is being rude to us, when the truth is they probably aren't thinking about us at all. See, I'm...

The phrase that's stuck in my head... and when that happens sometimes I figure I oughta write about it... is, "If you don't mind, it don't matter." And what I'm going to try to say for the next few days is just that: You don't have to let everything that happens on the outside affect what is...

Sharing is caring. Sharing yourself--giving everything you have and everything you are--is love. And the best part is... when you share... you also get to experience what you're sharing! When you share a meal you get to eat it too. And, in fact, the best way to experience something is to share it....

I always think its really cool when someone hits me up. Especially, like, just to check on me. Because that means they were thinking about me, and actually did something about it. Because a lot of the time it seems like we have a good idea (good intentions) but we never take that next step and put...

I think the right order (for everything) is found in 1 John 4:19, "We love him, because he first loved us." And, remember, we love Him BY loving each other. But what I'm trying to say is... you have to receive it before you can release it. Even though, in a sense, we receive it BY releasing it....

Caring part 2

If you care about somebody, loving them is eay. Giving everything you are and everything you have doesn't feel like a sacrifice. It IS a sacrifice, but it doesn't feel like it. It isn't a hard thing to do. Love is not a ball and chain that drags us down. Love is the only thing that can lift us up!...

They say sharing is caring, right? And if "they" don't... I sure do. I can't think of a better way most of the time to show someone you care than to give them what you've got. To share yourself with them. To lay your life down for a friend, if I can say it that way. And the coolest part--besides,...

Pleased part 5

God is pleased WITH us when things go well FOR us. When we experience the gift that we've been given, which is the eternal, abundant, everlasting, Resurrection Life of love. Which we do by receiving and releasing that love that He first loved us with. But God is well pleased IN us because He is our...

Pleased part 4

God is not just pleased WITH us. Because, to me, that implies conditions. Something we do pleased Him. And that happens, don't get me wrong. Every time the Word (which is Jesus, which is love) becomes flesh and the idea of love becomes charity, or love in action, I believe God is very pleased. Like...
