Love can't be boxed

Love can't be boxed. On the contrary, love is the one calling us out of the boxes we've somehow wandered into. Live an out-of-the-box life. Live free. Love outrageously. 

A great quote by Mick Mooney

Expect love

"They found grace out in the desert ... and met God out looking for them!" GOD told them, "I've never quit loving you and never will. Expect love, love, and more love! 

Jeremiah 31:2-3 (MSG)

Are you living by your head or your heart?

I found these insights by Mick Mooney on Facebook.  I've placed a link to his page below.

The whole world works in such a way that we are continually dragged away from our hearts to live in our heads. The problem with this is that our heads make decisions largely influenced by a mixture of fear and the pursuit of a comfortable, safe life. But our hearts are the fearless kind, our hearts are adventures of the best kind, and our hearts want far more than comfort--they want to do things we were born to do.

It is our hearts that hold the revelation of what will make us truly happy, and often our heads, with good intentions, pull us away from that life to live the 'safe' life instead.

Our heads say, "No, no, no!" to the dream in our heart. "That's not possible. It would be great, but it's too risky! It's not profitable enough. It's too dangerous. It's not safe. It won't put a roof over your head and food on the table."

In response, our hearts say: "But this is what I was created to do, to be, to live! Yes, it won't be easy, but it will make me fully alive! Yes, it is risky, but what is life, if not a daring adventure? Yes, it isn't profitable, not right now, but I want more than a mortgage and a fancy car! Don't you understand? I want to do what I was created to do. I want to live, I want to be fully alive, and I want to give the whole world what I have stored up in my heart!"

What is in your heart is there for a purpose. Don't let your mind dismiss the dream in your heart. Be brave. Trust your heart. Live from your heart, and follow the passion that stirs within it. For when we live from our heart, and follow the path our hearts long to walk upon, it is there we find life, and life in abundance. It may not be safe, it may not be easy--but it will make your heart fully alive.    by Mick Mooney

Secret pain

“When a preacher makes the Good News sound like bad news he's preaching his secret pain, not the Gospel.”   

Quote by- Rick Warren

Nobody is safe from a blessing

The Solution

His Presence is the key to all the solutions that you need in your life. No programs, lists, ideas or any other thing will bring a solution. Only the Person of Jesus Himself through His Spirit will bring the cure...

by   John Belt

Here's what to do

So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.

Romans 12:1-2 (MSG)

Blazing out of the darkness

The Life-Light blazed out of the darkness; the darkness couldn't put it out. John 1:5 (MSG)

Define yourself radically

Extravagant Love

Watch what God does, and then you do it, like children who learn proper behavior from their parents. Mostly what God does is love you. Keep company with him and learn a life of love. Observe how Christ loved us. His love was not cautious but extravagant. He didn't love in order to get something from us but to give everything of himself to us. Love like that.  Ephesians 5:1-2 (MSG)

What a Life!

Among the most precious of the facts

about the Divine Life is that we have God in

us. It does not seem possible.

Human reason cannot grasp it.

The human mind is staggered by it, but it

is true that “Greater is He that is in you than

He that is in the world.”

 

Christianity is not a religion, nor science,

philosophy or metaphysics.

It is God living His own life in us.

It is our union with Diety.

We become the house in which God lives.

Our mind becomes His instrument.

The sooner we become God inside mind-

ed, the quicker will we learn to use the force

that is within us and when any emergency

arises we will whisper softly to ourselves,

“The Greater One is in me.” 

 

When some problem comes that baffles us

again we will whisper, “Lord, here is your

opportunity, I cannot see through this, Thou

canst, and so I trust Thee to give Thy Wisdom

at this crisis.”

 

What a Life!

Having that mighty One living in you.

Always there, always ready.

His healing strength, His mental strength,

His love strength, all inside us.

My great need is to so educate myself

through the Word that I may be ever con-

scious of His indwelling presence.

No matter how great the difficulties or

what the trouble may be, I know that

“Greater is He that is in me than He that is

in the world.”

by E W Kenyon.

Encouraging family and friends

“Think of the people around you. What does the Lord want to be for them now? What confidence, encouragement and assurance do they need in order to step up into a new level or place with God?
Over to you now. Make notes on your family and friends, then go and be the gift that the Father wants you to be!”
by Graham Cooke

Awareness of our Oneness

Awareness of our Oneness by Godfrey Birtill 2013©

I've placed within you, The ability to see
As in a mirror, My likeness, in humanity.
My rivers of love flow out from your heart
You carry the light that shines in the dark

See my face in everyone
The old life gone, the new begun
Awakened to Awareness of our oneness

There are no walls here
There's neither slave or free,
No male or female
You are all, equal to me
Heirs of the promise that's given by grace
Not through the law, But simply through faith

Once for all time Christ has won
This beautiful communion
Awakened to Awareness of our oneness

We are one! We are one!
