Send God A Text! Each day we are in communication with other people, why not with God? Phone calls, emails, instant messages, texts, why not send God a text or two, or three, during the day? We tell people throughout the day what we are thinking about or planning, why not tell God too? The Biggest Identity Thief Have you ever had your identity stolen? I have. Twice. It's not pleasant. Discover in this article the biggest identity thief that I know. This thief can steal your identity in a matter of seconds. God Is Not In Charge God does not just butt in and take control over your life. Everything wasn't just "meant to be." If that were true then why are there so many Scriptures encouraging us to pray and ask for His help? Looking For Hope? Regardless of where the economy is, and regardless of what the news reports say, good or bad, you don't have to lose hope. You can have hope even in these trying times. There is hope! Don't Let Anything Stop You They thought Cliff was crazy to even think that he could do it. Some feared he would die trying. He did a lot more than just try. Cash For Clunkers? Some say that the government's Cash for Clunkers program was a big success. Nearly a half a million cars and trucks have been sold; a real boost to the economy. But what about people who see themselves as a clunker? Three Keys To Prosperity In these days of economic uncertainty, it is important if not critical to operate the keys to prosperity. These are by no means all the keys to prosperity, but I think these three are among the most important. Make Something Happen Sadly, many people feel absolutely hopeless. They feel that way because they have forgotten just how powerful and delivering God is. They look only at their own abilities and see no way out. And so, they wait. Are You Brainstorming... Or Blame-Storming? This is especially good advice for someone who has lost their job. Finding yourself in that situation can easily tempt you to blame, blame and blame. But what good does that do? What does that accomplish? How does that aid you in finding new employment? Guess What I Heard On The News? Regardless of any circumstances no matter how insurmountable they may seem, God's promises are still true. How To Receive More Of God's Favor He has freely extended His grace and favor. We, on the other hand, so many times, object to His good favor. Object? Yes. How? Trump It I do not think that any circumstance or situation ought to be viewed as "the cards you have been dealt." To look at life that way indicates that there is nothing that you can do about your situation. That is just not true. Who Calls The Shots? Suppose you received an email from someone you do know, and they said some pretty lousy things about you. What would your reaction be? What Are You Worth? But regardless of what we have done, or, what we haven't done, in God's eyes we are still worth the highest price ever paid. Prayer Under Stress I hear people from time to time talk about their boss and what a mean person they are. I hear others talk about not wanting to work at a company because the boss is not a Christian. What about Daniel's boss? What Are You Looking Forward To? There are people who get so low that the feel like they have nothing to look forward to. Day after day it seems to them that nothing ever changes. They just don't see how things can get any better. Survive Or Thrive? I believe that whether you "survive or thrive" has a lot to do with your mindset. What are willing to accept and what are you willing to reject? Your personal beliefs will determine the action that you take. Do You Have Hope? The life that is to come will surely be beyond what we can comprehend. But the life we have been given to live today is full of promises of His abundant blessings. Facing the Unknown When you stop and think about it, every day we face the unknown. There are no guarantees that everything that we have planned will play out just like we think it will. Life is full of surprises. A Promotion and a Raise With so many people going to work each day with fear in their hearts, how far from their minds is a scenario like this? It happened here in the USA, in February of 2009. Do Things Really Happen for A Reason? We need to be careful about what we blame God for. It's all too easy to say, "That flat tire happened for a reason," well all the while thinking that it was God Who did it for a reason. If you are speaking on God's behalf, you really ought to be real sure you are accurate! In This Economy, Are You a Miser or a Giver? You can choose to be influenced by the media, or you can choose to be a giver. What? Giving in these times? Yes, I am talking about the Law of Giving and Receiving. Based on a True Story If movies based on true stories can inspire people, just think how much more true stories from the Bible could inspire people if they only accepted them as being true. They could really lift a person's confidence in God to new heights. The Little Known Secret About Gratitude! This is the little know secret about "gratitude," how few even recognize it, and yet if they knew it, how much it would impact their lives! A Lack of Confidence! When reading the promises in the Bible, you won't read any legal disclaimer, or expiration dates, or that, "certain rules and conditions may apply." The promises you read in the Scriptures are all true for you to claim right now! Less is More, But Can More Be Less? The Creator never intended for us to settle! He never intended for us to live a life being "less" than what we could be! His desire is for us to reach our full potentials! This Economic Mess Just Isn't Fair! I am convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that our God is both able and willing to help, regardless of the stock market, the housing industry, or, the global economy for that matter. Whom Can You Trust Now? "If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach him how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime." I'd like to add to that, "God is big enough to show you where to fish and when to fish!" Are Weeds Growing In Your Head? So, if I choose to not plant weeds in my flowerbed or garden, why would I want to plant weeds in my head? The things that I choose to think about and say can and do plant weeds. Are You Tired of Your Job? How do you feel when you come home from work? Frustrated? Fed up? Exhausted? Can't wait to find a new job? Have you found that new job yet? No, you haven't. Therein lies the irony! It Figures! If you will consistently apply this method over and over, this kind of thinking and corresponding action will replace your current belief system with a new one. I'd Be Happy Too If I Were Rich! The thoughts we think produce our core beliefs, which determines where our lives will be. Perhaps the Bible says it most succinctly, "As he thinks in his heart, so is he!" You Are Not Perfect! How many people do you know who are perfect and never make a mistake? Thoughts of past failures are very defeating. And, so many times our past failures and mistakes and shortcomings hinder us from receiving God's promises. Can You Control the Price of Gas? No matter what is going on around you, regardless if the markets are up or down and no matter where the price of gasoline is today, you can choose to accept and believe the promises of God. You can choose to stay focused on God's promises, and then expect to receive. Self-Talk You can start today building positive self-talk. It will reduce the stress in your life, give you confidence, and, empower you to living a dynamic life. It is your choice to change negative self-talk into positive self-talk Who Do You See in the Mirror? "The reason most people are so miserable is that they can't stand themselves." It is sad but so true! There are many people who just cannot stand themselves. I needed to change my perspective. Get Up And Get Dressed! The thoughts that you consistently think will form your belief system, your core beliefs. Our own core beliefs will determine our own circumstances. Soar With The Eagles! It's not the storms in life that defeat us. It is how we respond to the storms that will determine the outcome. Just like the eagle, we can soar high above the storm.
