When God talks,
you listen. "Whenever you feel anxious about your future or your past,
just breathe, breathe in... breathe out."
The messengers of God perform
their part by their acceptance of His messages as for themselves, and show they
understand the messages by giving them away. They choose no roles that are not
given them by His authority. And so they gain by every message that they give
away. You are appointed now. No one can receive and understand he has received
until he gives. For in the giving is his own acceptance of what he received.
1: To improve your performance, stop thinking about it (unselfconsciousness).
2: To avoid worrying
about the future, focus on the present (savoring).
3: If you want a future
with your significant other, inhabit the present (breathe).
4: To make the most of
time, lose track of it (flow).
5: If something is
bothering you, move toward it rather than away from it (acceptance).
6: Know that you don't
know (engagement).
We will not recognize what we receive until
we give it.
I am among the ministers of God,
and I am grateful that
I have the means by which to recognize that I am free.
The world recedes as we light up our minds,
and realize these holy words are true.
Galatians 4:6 (NIV)
6 Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the
Spirit who calls out, “Abba,[a]
Father.”
Romans 8:15 (NIV)
15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear
again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. [b] And by him we cry,
“Abba,[a] Father.”
Mark 14:36 (KJV)
36 And he said, Abba,[a]
Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me:
nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.
Footnotes:
a. Aramaic for Father
b. The Greek word for adoption to sonship is a term referring
to the full legal standing of an adopted male heir in Roman culture; also in
verse 23.
"Abba" is simply the vocative form of the noun "father."
