Positive Daily Inspiration - September 25, 2022 - Sunday Funnies

(Submitted with our great thanks)

“The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of God stands forever.”
Isaiah 40:8

A former Sergeant, having served his time with the Marine Corps, took a new job as a school teacher; but just before the school year started, he injured his back. He was required to wear a plaster cast around the upper part of his body. Fortunately, the cast fit under his shirt and wasn’t noticeable.

On the first day of class, he found himself assigned to the toughest students in the school. The smart-alecky punks, having already heard the new teacher was a former Marine, were leery of him and decided to see how tough he really was, before trying any pranks. Walking confidently into the rowdy classroom, the new teacher opened the window wide and sat down at his desk.

When a strong breeze made his tie flap, he picked up a stapler and promptly stapled the tie to his chest.

… … Dead silence …

He had no trouble with discipline that year.

A man said, I was relaxing in my favorite chair on Sunday. Reading the newspaper, watching a ball game on TV and listening to another on the radio, drinking Coca-Cola, eating a snack, and scratching the dog with my foot – and my wife has the nerve to accuse me of just sitting there doing nothing.

__________

Lawrence grabbed his plate and walked up to the party buffet for the fourth time. Aren’t you embarrassed to go back for so many helpings? Asked his wife.

Not a bit, Lawrence replied. I keep telling them it’s for you.

George Burns punctuated this story with a flick of his cigar. “A woman said to me, is it true that you still go out with young girls? I said yes, it’s true. She said, is it true that you still smoke 15 to 20 cigars a day? I said yes, it’s true I said, is it true that you still take a few drinks every day? I said yes, it’s true.

Shocked, she said, what does your doctor say? I said, he’s dead.

__________

What is the definition of a bachelor pad?

All the houseplants are dead, but there’s something growing in the refrigerator.

An experienced real estate salesman asked his boss if he could refund the deposit to an angry customer who had discovered that the lot he had bought was underwater.

What kind of a salesman are you? The boss scolded. Get out there and sell him a boat.

__________

An employee said, the stress my boss puts me under is killing me. I have migraines, my blood pressure is going through the roof, I can’t sleep at night, I just found out I have an ulcer, and as long as I stay in this job the only question is whether I’ll have a stroke or heart attack.

So why don’t you quit?

Employee: I have a great health plan.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

On this Sunday, I agree to remember You God. If I am unable to go to church, I hereby promise to spend at least one hour watching a church service on television, or one hour reading the Bible.

I dedicate this Sunday to You, my God.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I am one with the ONE.

Positive Daily Inspiration – September 24, 2022 – Saturday Inspiration

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 24, 2022 - Saturday Inspiration

(Submitted with our great thanks)

“In as much as you have done it unto the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto Me.”
Matthew 25:40.

A young lady named Sally relates an experience she had in a seminary class, given by her teacher, Dr. Smith. She says that Dr. Smith was known for his elaborate object lessons.

One particular day, Sally walked into the seminary and knew they were in for a fun day. On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table were many darts.

Dr. Smith told the students to draw a picture of someone that they disliked or someone who had made them angry, and he would allow them to throw darts at the person’s picture. Sally’s friend drew a picture of a girl who had stolen her boyfriend. Another friend drew a picture of his little brother.

Sally drew a picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail into her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. Sally was pleased with the overall effect she had achieved.

The class lined up and began throwing darts. Some of the students threw their darts with such force that their targets were ripping apart. Sally looked forward to her turn, and was filled with disappointment when Dr. Smith, because of time limits, asked the students to return to their seats.

As Sally sat thinking about how angry she was because she didn’t have a chance to throw any darts at her target, Dr. Smith began removing the target from the wall.

Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus. A hush fell over the room as each student viewed the mangled picture of Jesus, holes and jagged marks covered His face and His eyes were pierced.

Dr. Smith said only these words … “In as much as ye have done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto Me.”
Matthew 25:40.

No other words were necessary, the tear-filled eyes of the students focused only on the picture of Christ.

A person’s religion is what they say and do all day, seven days a week – not what they say and do at 10 AM on Sunday.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

O God, how holy Your name,
give peace in our hearts,
in our homes,
in our world,
in our universe,
the peace of our need,
the peace of Your will.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I actively share my love of life with others.

Positive Daily Inspiration – September 23, 2022 – IN-BETWEEN STAGE

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 23, 2022 - IN-BETWEEN STAGE

“Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while.”
Mark 6:31

I once did a lesson in the church called “Firmly in Midair.” I talked about that unsure place that we all must move through. The trapeze artist must decide to move to the other trapeze. To move to the other trapeze, he must let go of the trapeze he is holding, sailing through mid-air to grab hold of the trapeze on the other side. When he has let go of the one trapeze, he has lost his visible support and is moving forward on faith, hoping that the other trapeze will show up at the right time. It is the only way to move forward.

Have you ever felt as if you were at an in-between stage in your life? Maybe you ended one project or relationship, but were not ready to begin another. Yet at the same time, you felt as if you should be doing something.

Your ability to let go of the past does not necessarily mean that you are ready for the next step. It could be that you are moving into a time of soul preparation, a time of rest and renewal that will give you the strength to move forward.

If you feel guilty because you are not actively participating or moving ahead fast enough, give yourself permission to just “let it be” and enjoy this special time. You have to wait for the other trapeze to show up. When the new beginning comes – and I assure you that it will – you will be ready and prepared to succeed, beyond your wildest expectations.

Do as Jesus has said: Go to a secluded place all by yourself and rest a while, in preparation for the fast movement that change requires.

When you are in the in-between stage, do not berate yourself for not constantly moving; you are doing valuable soul work that is necessary and needed for your future success.

People do not rest and renew enough. You must allow yourself this time, and give yourself permission to experience the touch of God through prayer and reflection.

God’s love is powerfully active in your life, and it will set you free to be the best person you can possibly be.

God loves you, unconditionally. God wants you to be a human “being,” not just a human “doing.” Many people only have self-worth when they are busy. Modern people often find it very uncomfortable to turn off the TV and radio and to sit in the quiet. But it is only in doing so that we discover our true spiritual being.

You do not have to be busy in order to be lovable, because God loves you as the special creation that you are. This does not mean that you will not ever change, for change is inherent with freedom from the past. What I am saying is that God loves you at every stage of your growth, even in the times when you do not see anything happening.

Humans, in today’s society, are addicted to speed. Spirituality is found in stillness. God will bring new opportunities to you at the exact and precise time when your soul is ready to grasp on to the God-given good.

Through rest and renewal, you will feel free to express your full potential, and let the love of God shine in and through you, every day. You will be empowered by God to move into new experiences, fully expecting not only to grow but also to be blessed in the experience of growing.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

I take a moment to stop and turn the situation over to God. I surrender my own will and let God’s will be done. It let Divine order take over and I recognize that God’s will is being done. I place my trust in the One power in the universe, knowing that I am surrendering my will to the greater will of the good of God. I invite God to be an active participant in my life, I let God be God in my daily walk. I pray for a Divine plan to live a fulfilling life.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION God, not my will, but Your will be done.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “With a closed mind and heart, the light of God cannot enter.”

Positive Daily Inspiration – September 22, 2022 – PRAYERS STILL WATERS

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 22, 2022 - PRAYERS STILL WATERS

“Draw near to God and God will draw near to you.”
James 4:8

Beyond the windy trees of thought
In the valley of reflection
Amid the certitudes of spirit
And quietudes of soul,
Is the placid pool of prayer,
Where I may find myself
Alone with the Alone,
And one with the One,
May I lose my self.

Be still, all you windy thoughts
That blow through my mind,
And sit down with me
By prayer’s still waters.

-James Dillet Freeman

The first step in the realization of life is always to know that God is life, abundant, omnipresent, eternal; and the second step is to make positive connection with God by declaring your oneness with God.

Jesus Christ declared His oneness with the life and with God – the source of life – when He said, “I and the Father are one;” and “I am in the Father and the Father is in me.”

You follow Jesus by declaring your oneness with God, and your oneness with life. You realize that God is life, and that God is the one eternal source of all. You make connection with God, through prayer, and you see that the possibilities for expressing this life, for expressing the goodness of God are unlimited.

You draw upon the intelligence of God, available to you through prayer, and you are inspired with Divine ideas, ideas that reveal the way to live a fuller, richer life.

In the stillness of prayer, you relax and realize how much God cares.

In 1 Peter 5:7, our Bible states, “Cast all your anxieties on God, for God cares about you.”

Conditions and circumstances may, at times, seem to block your path, but there is always a solution; there is always an answer.

Through your awareness with God’s great power for good in your life, and your realization of God’s presence always with you, your way through any tangled maze is made clear. You can surmount any obstacle. You can overcome all seeming limitations. You can rise above feelings of fear or doubt.

God cares about you. God is with you always, and God’s presence constantly enfolds you. You are never without God’s guidance. Regardless of what your need may be or what situation faces you, you are never alone. You turn to God, in prayer, and experience the feeling of your oneness with God.

You rest in the assurance that God is your help in every need. Then, with the feeling of total trust, you follow the guidance that comes to you from God.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, teach me freedom,
As the Eagle which soars in the sky.

Dear God, teach me resignation,
As the leaves which die in the fall.

Dear God, teach me regeneration,
As the seed which rises in the spring.

Dear God, teach me to forget myself,
As melted snow forgets.

Dear God, teach me to remember kindness,
As dry fields weep with the rain.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: Home is where the heart is, and my true home is in my heart where I abide with God.

Positive Daily Inspiration – September 21, 2022 – God Timing

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 21, 2022 - God Timing

How long, O Lord?
Psalm 89:46

Make sure your worst enemy doesn’t live between your two ears.

Do you feel that God is not listening to your prayers?

GOD IS LISTENING!

When someone tells you that your dreams will happen in God’s time, do you roll your eyes, sigh hugely, and feel that, if that is the case, your dream will not come true in your lifetime.

GOD IS HELPING YOU BEHIND THE SCENES!

Imagine being God. Imagine coordinating a huge week full of family or friends – like a reunion. Some people would not even begin to plan something of this magnitude, or of any magnitude at all, while others relish the tasks and challenges. Even if you are a person who loves to coordinate gatherings, parties, get-togethers, imagine one of such a great magnitude as 8 BILLION guests! (Current world population)

“Not me,” you say! This is what God does, AND GOD CARES FOR EVERYONE!

God coordinates each and every person’s life so that it entwines with 7 billion other lives.

We are familiar with human dreams and lives. Imagine this human asking God for a life companion (or substitute your own dream). They ask Positive Christianity to pray with them, for this life companion.

Daily, for a full month, Positive Christianity prayer partners pray with her for her life companion to come into her life.

“Hmmmmm … 31 days have passed … where’s this life companion,” she says? “I’ve been asking for days – or weeks – or – months or even years. Is God not listening to me? Is God not sending me a life companion????”

Sometimes, in our human state, we get impatient, discouraged, and even lose hope, and we, sometimes, even forget our dreams.

Ah, but continue on … God is really with you, always! And God is with the other person.

Imagine being God, again. This person just asked for a life companion. God says, “I have the perfect one for you! Just wait! Let me get them.” Because God KNOWS just EXACTLY the right person for this woman. God LOVES giving us what we ask for.

God knows that the woman’s future life companion is not quite ready for her, for one reason, or another. The man has a couple of years to go before he is ready to be the best life companion for her … and for her to be really ready, to be the best life companion for him. But, in getting these two together, several things have to happen. This relationship affects many people – their family, their friends, their co-workers, etc. Everything needs to be in the proper place, and timing is everything, for this to work within their lives, and within the scheme of the entire world … all so that God can give both of them, and all concerned, the highest and most wonderful, good.

But this person may be sitting there without hope, feeling intensely lonely, abandoned, and sad.

She decides to just go out and choose the first person who comes into her life who is willing to be her life companion, no matter if either of them is really the best person for each other. Sometimes this is not the best decision.

Do you get the picture? It’s like a huge, big, sit-down dinner in which you find that you have two people who have decided not to sit in their designated places at the table. And you spent so much time and energy placing each person in the best place for them and for all the others.

God’s grace is often fixing our impulse mistakes that we impatiently make on-the-fly. God works to bring good to each and every situation.

This is a light look at what God just might go through when we get impatient with the slowness of life. But, even in humor, life still can hurt; life still can seem like such a struggle; and each of us knows the deep sadness when we feel that we might not received, or attain our dreams.

There is only ONE thing to remember:

GOD HAS NOT FORGOTTEN YOU! God NEVER forgets you and is always guiding you and directing you towards that which you deeply desire and need.

God does not take your feelings, or your life, lightly. Whether you are looking for your life companion, or your life dreams to become manifest God helps in the same good ways.

God works night and day, within you, guiding you, directing you, showing you the way towards your dreams.

In Matthew 28:20 it says, “I am with you always.” We have heard that so many times, but I ask you now, when you face your difficulty, to remember these words.

You are not alone. God is with you, taking care of you.

We at Positive Christianity know that God works for you, for your highest good at all times. That’s why we pray with you so wholeheartedly and so gladly. We pray not only for your dream, or your desire, or your need, we also pray for your peace of mind, as you wait upon God, and as you learn that God’s time really IS the most perfect time. Each moment, every day, you continue to live the best life you can with what you have because you know that God is working, right now, towards that which you desire.

Instead of asking “How long, O Lord?” ask “what is my next step towards this dream, this desire, this need?” God will answer you. You have the answer within you, as God presence inspires you, leads you in patience, and celebrates the manifestations of your dreams with you.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, thank you for your vigilant care within my life and within every
other person’s life. I am filled with patience, today. I look above my
feelings to new hope in you. I ask you to help me cast out any feelings of
hopelessness, sadness, and frustration, and I see what you have placed
before me.

Each moment, I choose to move forward as I am guided and directed by you.
I imagine you walking beside me, every step of the way. I feel your
surrounding comfort, understanding, and unconditional love, wrapping
around me, like a blanket, calming my fears and lightening my heart.

Thank you, dear God, for always being there for me and with me, each and
every day. I pray that I enjoy the adventure of the journey.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: My life is in divine order in God’s perfect timing.

Positive Daily Inspiration – September 20, 2022 – Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 20, 2022 - Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

“From His fullness we have all receive, grace upon grace.”
John 1:16

I invite you to relax in the peace and silence of God’s loving presence.

Take a deep breath and hold it for several seconds. As you gently exhale, invite your mind to let go of all outer concern.

For these next minutes, all your concerns can be lovingly placed in the hands of God, and you can turn your attention to the kingdom of God and all the help it contains.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

Take another deep breath, holding it for as many seconds as is comfortable for you, and as you gently exhale, invite your body to relax in an awareness of God’s loving presence, a presence that enfolds, loves, and blesses us.

For these next few minutes, allow my words to resonate within you; allow my words to go to the very core of your being and to be your words consenting to and accepting their truth as your own.

The radiant life of God flows through me now.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

I open my mind and my heart to this loving Presence of God that is moving through every part of my being.

I begin, again, today with God’s willing help.

With God’s presence with me, I know that whatever I would like to be, I have the ready help at hand.

Whatever I would like to see changed in my life can change. With God, nothing is impossible.

I let go of old beliefs, old worn-out systems of thinking and feeling, and error thoughts about who I thought I was.

I am a beloved child of God, and God’s loving presence flows through me now and always.

God’s presence brings a newness, a new awareness, of Christ.

I feel God’s love flowing through me now.

This is the time – not tomorrow, not next week, not next year, but right now to personally feel God’s help.

I open my mind and my heart to God’s love, to God’s radiant life, and to God’s wisdom which is clearly guiding me and inspiring me to live the glorious life I was created to live.

Rest in the silence of prayer for a few moments, I invite you to hold an awareness of God’s loving presence as radiant life in every cell, every tissue, every organ of your being. Know that all of these parts of your body, and all of your mind, are being renewed, refreshed, rejuvenated, and regenerated.

I invite you to rest in the awareness of God’s loving, healing presence active in us all right now …

Rest in the silence of prayer …

I am a new person in Christ today.

I awaken, as if out of a dream, to a greater realization of God’s loving presence in me, now.

I awaken to a greater awareness of God’s perfect radiant life flowing through me, now.

I am richly and wonderfully blessed as I open my mind and my heart to this living, loving presence of God moving through my life, now.

I follow Jesus by becoming an instrument of God’s love and God’s life.

Thank You, dearest God, for Your loving presence flowing through me now.

Accept this now … In Jesus Christ’s name …

And so it is … Amen.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: My life is filled with Divine Grace

Positive Daily Inspiration – September 19, 2022 – ABUNDANT BLESSINGS

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 19, 2022 - ABUNDANT BLESSINGS

NEW VIDEO TODAY – see below

“God brought me to the banqueting house, and God’s banner over me was love.”
Song of Solomon 2:4

Perhaps you feel that only through great effort will you attain truly abundant living. You may believe that because of something you have done or said, you are being denied health, security, or companionship. Such negative beliefs can cause you to turn your back to your good.

You turn towards your good as you recognize that God is the Creator and your source of unlimited good.

God loves you.

God’s unqualified love for you is a powerful force that manifests bountiful good in your life. You are – right now – abundantly blessed by God’s love, so today, ask for and accept your blessings from God with thanksgiving.

God’s Divine love brings you bountiful good in your life, and you cooperate with God by being a grateful receiver. A lot of people are not good receivers, and they block their own good. Today, you are a grateful receiver as you align your life with the goodness of God. With an aligned life you enjoy health of mind, body, and emotions. In all ways, you are abundantly blessed.

Abundance in your life is founded on a prosperous state of mind. Through the activity of the Holy Spirit, you know that you are rich in Spirit. You know that your good comes from God. You feel secure, for you have the inner resources to meet any need.

Most of God’s blessings do not cost money. I was in Canada last week for a few heavenly hours next to Niagara Falls. I walked for about three miles exploring, with a perfect temperature and a light breeze. It was breathtaking in its beauty, and it was all for free for me to enjoy as God’s child.

Psalms 1:3 states, “In all that he does, he prospers.”

As God ministers to you, you develop an abundant state of mind. Become still in prayer and immerse yourself in the beauty that God has given. As you meditate and pray on abundance, it opens the way for outer manifestations of your inner riches.

The greatest abundance that you have as a child of God, is being immersed in God’s love. As you become aware of this and accept it, you have harmony and happiness in your personal relationships. You attain the experience, education, and skills for right and steady employment. You have whatever you need to ensure success in any area you choose to explore. When you continually accept that you are blessed by God, you cannot help but demonstrate this truth in your life.

You know that God is the source of your abundance, and you accept the good that is yours to enjoy. You are open to all ways and opportunities through which God’s riches will flow to you.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

A Prayer for The Children of Our World as they start another school year:

God’s wonderful Presence is now
blessing all the children of the world.
Each one is now held safely in the arms of God
who guides and protects them all through the day and night.
All parents everywhere are now being filled
with loving-kindness, patience, and wisdom.
All the resources necessary to raise a healthy, happy, and successful child
are now being drawn into their lives.
There are more than enough resources in the
Universe to care for all the children of the world and even now
the leaders and citizens of every country and nation are being
Divinely guided and supported to care for the health, educational,
spiritual, financial, and emotional needs of the worlds youth.
Every school, park, playground, and home is protected and
held perfectly in the hands of God.
Here and now, I give God my hands, my feet, and my voice
to be used to make the world a safer and more
wonderful place for all children to grow and thrive in.
I allow myself to be used in the service of helping
to raise up a society of healthy and happy adults.
I send out my loving thoughts now as a beacon of light
which shines outward into every street of the world,
blanketing the globe with God’s love and safety.
We are all healed together.
The family, whatever form it takes, is restored
by Divine Love this very day.
I thank You Lord for hearing my prayer and for the
manifestations of good which now follow –
I release this prayer to You now in full faith knowing that it is done
by Your Holy Spirit for the highest good of all concerned.

And so, it is.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I have faith that God’s loving understanding Spirit is now dissolving all blocks and establishing opportunity and right conditions in my life.

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 18, 2022 - Sunday Funnies

(Submitted with our great thanks)

“If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.”
Galatians 5:25

My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned. Couldn’t concentrate.

Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn’t hack it, so they gave me the ax.

After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn’t suited for it. Mainly because it was a so-so job.

Next, I tried working in a muffler factory but that was exhausting.

I wanted to be a barber, but I just couldn’t cut it.

Then I tried to be a chef. I figured it would add a little spice to my life but I just didn’t have the thyme.

I studied a long time to become a doctor, but I didn’t have any patients.

I became a professional fisherman but discovered that I couldn’t live on my net income.

I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining.

So, then I got a job in a gymnasium, but they said I wasn’t fit for the job.

Next, I found being an electrician interesting, but the work was shocking.

After many years of trying to find steady work, I finally got a job as a historian until I realized there was no future in it.

My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.

A man walks out to the street and catches a taxi just passing by. He gets into the taxi and the driver says, “Perfect timing. You’re just like Frank.”

Passenger: “Who?”
Cabbie: “Frank. Frank Feldman. He’s a guy who did everything right all the time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happened like that to Frank every single time.”

Passenger: “There are always a few clouds over everybody.”
Cabbie: “Not Frank. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand-slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy.”

Passenger: “Sounds like he was something really special.”

Cabbie: “There’s more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered everybody’s birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to use. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Frank could do everything right.”

Passenger: “Wow, some guy then.”

Cabbie: “He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Frank, he never made a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good. He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong. And his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too. He was the perfect man! He never made a mistake. No one could ever measure up to Frank Feldman.”

Passenger: “An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?”

Cabbie: “Well, I never actually met Frank. He died and I married his wife.”

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I am so thankful that You fill me with Your light and show me the way. You gently guide me so that I am sure and steady. You lead me to a place where I can be most helpful, and You remind me to be confident and stand firm once I am there. You direct my thoughts so that I am enriched by Divine ideas. Dear God, here are my hands, my heart, my whole being. I want to be Your light and love in action. I am ready to spread goodwill wherever I am.

In Jesus Christ name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I applied my efforts with God. God’s joy is established in me and in my life. God’s joy governs me in all that I do!

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.”

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 17, 2022 - Saturday Inspiration

“The kingdom of God is among you.” Luke 17:21

THE WEATHERED OLD BARN

A stranger came by the other day, with an offer that set me to thinking. He wanted to buy the old barn that sits out by the highway. I told him, right off, he was crazy. He was a city type; you could tell by his clothes, his car, his hands, and the way he talked. He said he was driving by and saw that beautiful barn sitting out in the tall grass, and wanted to know if it was for sale. I told him he had a funny idea of beauty.

Sure, it was a handsome building, in its day. But then, there’s been a lot of winters pass with their snow and ice and howling wind. The summer suns beat down on that old barn ’til all the paint’s gone, and the wood has turned silver, gray. Now the old building leans a good deal, looking kind of tired. Yet, that fellow called it beautiful.

That set me to thinking. I walked out to the field and just stood there, gazing at that old barn. The stranger said he planned to use the lumber to line the walls of his den, in a new country home he’s building down the road. He said you couldn’t get paint that beautiful. Only years of standing in the weather, bearing the storms, and scorching sun, only that can produce beautiful barn wood.

It came to me then. We’re a lot like that, you and I. Only it’s on the inside that the beauty grows with us. Sure, we turn silver, gray too … and lean a bit more than we did when we were young and full of sap. But the good Lord knows what God’s doing. And as the years pass, God is busy using the hard wealth of our lives, the dry spells, and the stormy seasons, to do a job of beautifying our souls that nothing else can produce. And to think how often folks holler because they want life easy!

They took the old barn down, today, and hauled it away to beautify a rich man’s house.

And I reckon, someday, you and I’ll be hauled off to Heaven to take on whatever chores the good Lord has for us on the Great Sky Ranch.

And I suspect we’ll be more beautiful than for the seasons we’ve been through here … and just maybe even add a bit of beauty to God’s house.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS in modern language.

1) I will look ONLY to God for the source of my good.

2) I will not think my life is lacking of anything. God gives all I need.

3) I will not speak the words of lack or limitation.

4) I will let go and let God do it.

5) I will deal honorably with God and all people. God’s good is in all people and all things.

6) I will not have harmful thoughts toward anybody or anything.

7) I will use my God-given, spiritual power for good only.

8) I will not seek something for nothing.

9) I will be honest with God and myself.

10) I will not limit myself by wanting that which is another’s. With God’s help, through prayer, I will create my own.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, in faith I know there is always a way.
As I place my faith in You my faith grows by leaps and bounds.
I ask You to help me to open the door to new good and new blessings.

Thank You God. In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I seek God and God answers!

Positive Daily Inspiration – September 16, 2022 – STEADFASTNESS

Positive Daily Inspiration - September 16, 2022 - STEADFASTNESS

“Let steadfastness have its full effect.”
James 1:4

Steadfastness is a powerful asset to any human life. Awareness of the presence of God will strengthen and fortify you. Knowing that your life is one with God and God’s love, you are able to surmount difficulties with courage and to rise above setbacks and obstacles.

You rejoice and give thanks for the progress that you are making in your spiritual growth. From each successive achievement, you are further inspired to go forward to better and greater things. You consider impediments or roadblocks to be challenges to merrily spur you on to become the person you want to be. You realize such blocks to progress serve as valued opportunities for self-examination and as a means of strengthening your aims. With God, you rise above discouragement. If one way does not work, you try another, and another. Nothing stops the forward action of you and God.

Continued contact with God, in prayer, gives you resourcefulness, confidence and lasting steadfastness. No person, condition, situation, or attitude can keep you from fulfilling your goals. As Jesus said, you are one with God. God guides you into the true expression of your particular abilities and talents.

All of life changes when you come to know that God made the world and everyone in it. God created humans in God’s spiritual image. The true nature of every human is love. It is easy to be steadfast when we realize that we are going from one expression of love to another. Is it unrealistic to think this way? No! It is true that many are not yet expressing from this high spiritual point – but you can. You can be steadfast in kindness and in love, and light the path for others to follow.

Once you awaken to this realization, then no matter what anyone may express, you will hold steadfastly to the truth that the other person’s true nature is love. You will find people reacting differently to you, for they cannot help but express what you know to be true about them.

No longer would you hold adverse thoughts concerning anyone. Instead, you will be steadfast in knowing that love is the reality of their being. No longer would you feel apart from any person or group. You will not think that someone does not like you. You will take it for granted that all people like you, because they, too, are created out of God’s love. Knowing this, you will feel in harmony and in accord with everyone.

In Romans 8:31-35 our Bible states, “If God is for us, who is against us? … Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?”

So, instead of stopping, you decide to keep steadfast, empowered by God, determined to seek after and manifest your God-given good.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

You will your on your ear starting work right now Dear God, in prayer, I enter consciously into an awareness of Your presence. I lift my thoughts, my voice to You in prayer, and my body responds with new surges of healing activity. I am continually being healed as Your spirit renews my body. Thank You for enlivening me with new life. Your spirit is at the core of my body in wondrous expression. Dear God, my prayer is that I remain aware of Your presence, Your life living out through me.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION The strength and vitality of God are now manifest in me.
