Well it says that that individual is choosing to believe that they do not have the capacity to create anything o…



1452. I’m Too Busy for Me By Dawn Fields
      Everyone is busy nowadays. It’s hard to find time for anything. From the time we wake up in the morning until the time we go to bed, it’s hard to find 30 minutes to simply be by yourself. If you are married with children, I know you can relate to what I am saying.I have a girlfriend who is single and we were having the discussion about how the grass is always greener on the other side. I said I would love to have a few days when I come home to an empty house with peace and quiet. She said she …

1454. Spiritual Belief By Lynn Claridge
      The atmosphere surrounding the earth is still a matter of special interest for scientific research. Some physicists have discovered and suggest that we are living within a field of energy that surrounds and envelops the earth, like an invisible halo. Through this are shot electrical charges. It appears that not only does this energy charge the batteries of our mind, body and soul it also helps us to be successful. Einstein stated that to the physicist this field is as real as the chair you are…



1455. Confession and Convenience By Eric Engel
      If there’s one thing that never fails to amaze me over the Catholic controversy, it’s the argument over confession. Perhaps each person has their own theories about why a man should or shouldn’t confess his sins to another man, but the most typical one is that God alone can forgive sins…and that God demands no human intervention in the ordeal.Now I could write about the biblical evidence of our side, or use a complicated logical argument. But I don’t think either of these are necessary…or even…



1456. White Sun - The Human Desire By Teow Aun Chew
      As one begins his journey, he does not know how many pirate ships that sail in this sea. One minute he sinks and the next he floats. Floating and sinking seem to be the daily affairs and will happen to the one who tries to seek his way across the desirous sea. If desires are not overcome, the search is still far off. The worst desire of man is greed for which many have died.Throughout man's life, his eyes are opened by the greedy desires. Extinguish this thought and there will be no need to fi…



1457. What Is Wrong With Being Common? By C.L. Mareydt
      The Emmaus Journal What is Wrong With Being Common? This questioning title has tenaciously lingered in my mind for the past few months. Precociously tethered within a shallow stigma and pushed to the cliff of distasteful obsolescence; it seemingly mustered one final effort within my mind to be heard. It's voice almost now a muted whisper bends my mind into a straining listening poise. I begin to sense a long lived pain and deepening sorrow for a passing away of what once use to be. In…



1458. Talk About Purpose By Dawn Fields
      What better example than Jesus’ life to explain about having a life’s purpose? No other example I can think of, can you?From the moment he was born--wait, hold up…BEFORE he was born, His purpose was already established. And so was yours.Jesus was born to the exact parents He needed to be born to, in order for him to fulfill his life’s purpose, and so were you.Mary was a virgin. Just so happened, she was about to be married. Coincidence? I think not.Nowadays, things are a lot different than the…



1459. Be Abundant...Set a New Mental Equivalent By Charlene Proctor
      Limiting beliefs, just like positive, empowering thoughts, provide a foundation for our experiences and what we demonstrate. Old beliefs can leave us behind – and are often stale, lingering ideas left-over from our childhood experiences or from other areas of life that no longer carry any useful meaning. Abandoning negative assumptions about lack opens room to develop an abundant mindset. We can do that by setting a new mental equivalent that resets the dial on our trust channel – the chann…



1460. The Pizza Parable By Dave McKay
      Behold, a certain young maiden did often times and at strange hours greatly desire a pizza. This would often happen in the second or the third watch, when home delivery was not available. At such times there would be much weeping and gnashing of teeth because she could not have the desire of her heart.And so she spake thus with herself: "If I would but learn to make my own pizza, then when the desire cometh upon me in the night hours, I shall be able to have pizza straightaway, without…



1461. Love, Honor, and Obey By Paul Bradley
      Let's take a look at all these aspects. The bible speaks a great deal about loving, honoring, and obeying the Father. God, the Father off all creation, loves us so much, that he sent his only begotten son to save us from our sins. We have all heard this, but, "Do we love God enough to give him our all?" "Do we love him enough", to weather any storm and rely on Him for everything that we need. "Do, we show this to other people?"; I hope that we do. God, wants us to show him how much we love him…



1462. Prophets, Apostles, and Mental Illness By Dennis Diehl
      I have kidded for decades about the fact that in my ministerial years I have met at least 23 of the Two Witnesses. One felt he was both of them, thus the odd number.I remember going with a minister to a home in Idaho once where the woman heard the voice of God often in her head. She had a young baby so the minister asked me to tend to the baby while he talked to her about her visions and voices. The baby had not had a diaper change in a pretty long time, so I took care of that in the kitchen w…



1463. Teotihuacan: "Where Man becomes God" By Sheri Rosenthal
      Eights years ago I was upside down, dangling by my feet from the top of the Pyramid of the Sun in the amazing ancient city of Teotihuacán, Mexico. It was not your average dangling; I had a morbid fear of heights and barely made it to the top of the massive structure that day. Never did I believe I would trust someone to hang me by my feet off the side of such a high place! But, in the end, I did and I let go of my fear of heights and a few other fears in the bargain. My gratitude for this expe…
