A new perspective of what i do and what Jesus does (:

" Instead he explained," Hi, I'm Russ Blowers. I'm with a global enterprise. We have branches in every country in the world. We have representatives in nearly every parliament and boardroom on earth. We're into motivation and behavious alteration. We run hospitals. feeding stations, crisis-pregnancy centers, universities, publishing houses and nursing homes. We care for our clients from birth to death. We are into life insurance and fire insurance. We perform spiritual heart transplants. Our original Organizer owns all the real estate on earth plus an assortment of glalaxies and constellations. He knows everything and lives everywhere. Our product is free for asking. Our CEO was born in a hick town, worked as a carpenter, didn't own a home, was misunderstood by his family and hated by his enemies, walked on water, was condemned to death without a trial, and arose from the dead. I talk with him every day."

A little lesson on contentment.

A man once went to a minister for counseling. He was in the midst of a financial collapse. " I've lost everything." he bemoaned

" Oh, i'm so sorry to hear you've lost your faith."
" NO," the man corrected him," i haven't lost my faith"
" Well, then i'm sad to hear that you've lost your character."
" I didn't say that," he corrected." I still have my character."
" I'm so sorry to hear that you've lost your salvation."
" That's not what i said," the man objected. " I haven't lost my salvation."

" You have your faith, your character, your salvation. Seems to me," the minister observed," that you've lost none of the things that really matter."

Excerpts from travelling Light by Max Lucado.

Messages which hit me real hard today. Do what you can for people today, look lesser at what you can do for yourself.

To you! i hope you know who you are. I'm sorry i shouldn't have expected, because love doesn't expect, love always trusts, hopes and believes. So i believe in you and i hope you see what i truly hope to sustain and achieve. I hope that you still remember the promises and try to keep them tho its difficult XP but i will miss you (: yeah and i hope that you'll be safe and you'll be well (:

Travelling light is difficult. Everyday i pick up guilt, sling on weariness from trying to do things on my own, get loaded by emotional burdens, tied down by things i think i "need" to do. But truly its time to learn how to put the burdens down.

Miracles need people with open arms to receive them. With all the baggage around, i won't be able to catch it. But i want to catch it. For the sake of people.

For God so loved the world, He gave his one and only son, so that all those who believe in him will not perish but receive eternal life.
Love is what matters and its task is to reach people.
I want to be one of those stepping stones for that task.
Do you? (:
