The Reciprocal Flow of Abundance
Giving Without Expectations
Since giving and receiving are so intimately intertwined in our lives, we often expect that we can attract abundance by simply conducting ourselves in an openhanded fashion. Yet we find ourselves wallowing in disappointment when our ample generosity is not met with the expected results. The answer to this quandary lies in the expectations that, in part, initially prompted us to give. Though our intention is likely pur…

"Then God said, 'Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about'" (Gen 22:2).
Have you ever wanted something so bad that you would do almost anything to get it? Have you ever gotten so close to fulfilling a dream only to have it disappear right before your eyes? Such was the case fo…

There are people who can walk away from you.
And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk.. I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.
The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manif…

VERSE: "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God"(Romans 10:17, NKJV).
THOUGHTS: Did you know that your faith in God can grow and increase every single day? Notice today's scripture doesn't say, "Faith comes because you have heard the Word of God one time." No, it says that "faith comes by hearing"—in the present tense.
Sure, God's Word can transform us in an instant; but most of the time, we need to hear God's principles over and over again before they become active in our liv…

o Hug Certificate for You If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
and share with you its beauty
on the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
you could call your very own;
a place to find serenity,
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them…

Spirit of Light and Love
Spirit of light and love, Creator and Sustainer, God of many names, Sometimes the burdens I shoulder feel like more than I can bear. I am terrified I shall break under their pressure, My wallet flattened, My hopes broken, My dreams in dust, My mind staggering, Under the crushing weight of uncertainty. As I struggle with my fears, And work to hold my creditors at bay, As I fight to regain a financial foothold And hope against hope To reverse my fall, Uplift my heart, oh G…

Let Peace Prevail In This World.......
When you look for peace
then the peace lies within you
When you search for peace
then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive
then you allow white doves to fly over you
When you make peace with others
then the whole world live in your heart
When you le…

This is a hoot, but I suspect the minister didn't appreciate it.
A minister was completing a temperance sermon. With great emphasis he said, 'If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river.' With even greater emphasis he said, 'And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it an…

but he said to me,"My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness." I will rather boast most gladly of my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ may dwell with me. Therefore, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and constraints, for the sake of Christ;…

DAILY SURRENDER
Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
(MATTHEW 4 : 1)
Surrender to the Holy Spirit is not a one-time occurrence that happens when we are born again. We must surrender daily, moment by moment.
It is easy to spot those who are yielding to the Holy Spi…

11 Timothy1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of
power, and of love, and of a sound mind...
Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ
Jesus...
What is the mind of Christ? He is a sound mind, there is no evil or
corruption in Him at all...He is love, He is power...And the Word in
Philippians 2:5 says that if we know Him as Saviour and Lord then we
should have the same mind as Him...
Why don't we then? There is an evil one, satan, that would love to

One day a while back, a man, his heart heavy with grief, was walking
in the woods. As he thought about his life this day, he knew many
things were not right. He thought about those who had lied about him
back when he had a job.
His thoughts turned to those who had stolen his things and cheated
him. He remembered family that had passed on. His mind turned to
the illness he had, that no one could cure. His very soul was filled
with anger, resentment, and frustration.
Standing there this day…

Self-Determination
Using Your Power
Our lives are defined by the decisions we make each day. When we choose one option over another, whether we are selecting a restaurant or considering a cross-country move, we shape our lives. The decision-making process can be empowering, allowing us to enjoy the benefits of self-determination. Yet it can also be a source of anxiety because decisions force us to face the possibility of dissatisfaction and inner conflict. As a result, many of us…
