New Format!



Today I begin a New Format, each day I'll be highlighting a new word. It may be a single word, or it may be a phrase or quotation.

It is my hope that at the end of the year, you and I will have a learned something!

I'll keep the soundtrack:

The Vince Guaraldi Trio - "Cast Your Fate To The Winds"

now....


Let's talk....

Today's Word is a quotation:

"You are the embodiment of the information you choose to accept and act upon. To change your circumstances you need to change your thinking and subsequent actions." by Adlin Sinclair

Here is a great key to successful living. When we realize that who we are is determined not by what we wish we believe, but by what we actually believe - we move towards a greater understanding of ourselves.

So many failures occur in our lives because we don't really believe first, and then act. Rather, we act and then hope that the results will inspire belief. When the results come in negative, we assume that what ever it was we were looking for was just not for us. We are rarely honest enough to say - "I really just didn't believe it would happen."

Scripture speaks to this - there was a man whose son was possessed by a demon. This man had taken his son to the disciples of Jesus looking for a cure, but they couldn't drive the demon out.
Desperate, he searched out Jesus and pleaded for help. Jesus rebuked the demon and healed the boy. His disciples afterward questioned Jesus privately: "Why couldn't we drive out the demon?"
Mat 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Only believe....

We'll Talk....
