CLIMBING OUT OF THE DEPTHS OF SHALLOW LIVING

God provides us with inner resources which renders us capable or able to overcome tribulations of life. Whether a physical condition that is caused by disease, matters of the heart which may leave us in a state in which we are unable to function normally and without pain, He is more than a conqueror to see us through our circumstances. "Nothing but the grace of God!"

A neutral or uncommitted person doesn't seek an expression of approval, commendation or favorable opinion of anyone. They alone evaluate and estimate the nature, quality, ability, extent, or significance of what is considered important. However, one must fully commit when seeking a relationship with God. It is a beautiful feeling when we are granted God's approval. There is favor in a relationship with the divine. Seek it with your whole heart and watch how all other worthy matters of importance fall into place.

To continually have an irritable and unpleasant disposition while subjecting those we love to sharply varying moods may give reason for your significant other to consider possible alternatives to a companionship with you. You see, this behavior interrupts the continuity of the relationship. You may as well be away. The most essential or vital part of being in a relationship is our emotional availability to our mate. When needing tender affection from our partner who is absent or unavailable, may cause an unfavorable combination of circumstances where expressing affection once felt becomes burdensome.  A situation now exist for counterfeit emotions.

Our minds are the unlimited expanse in which everything is located. With age, a superior wisdom is derived from experience. We develop the quality of being prudent and sensible by weighing the good against the bad to achieve our highest good. God has equipped us with the ability to apply knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense and/or insight to reach predetermined worthwhile goals. If we are made in His image, we are complete without defect or blemish. God made us perfect and complete in every respect with all necessary qualities to serve the purpose for which we were created. God the creator's knowledge base is one of having no known beginning and presumably no end. We serve a mighty God with feats of wisdom and knowledge too numerous to be counted.   

When we find ourselves filled with fear or apprehension, ask God to speak to us. The feelings of being struck with fear, dread, or consternation is a time to lean on God's promise. We all are thrown into a state of fear, desperation or deprived of our courage and strength, this is when our faith is being tested. No need of feeling worry, concern or insecurity, call on God to strengthen you right where you stand. 

I am but what I am. We all posses a quality of being of practical use for God's purpose for the world.  With God's resolve within us, we are carried through the battles of life with an unshakeable intent. Through our own example, we provide a new translation of God's word to others. In times such as these, good intentions are not enough. God's word was created with the conscious aim of answering immediate needs, He made no secret of His designs for our life on earth.

When we perform acts of providing something to others, lodging, food or to meet a need, we provide a stroke that puts the ball in play toward contributing to the fulfillment of a need. By the furtherance of this effort or purpose, we become a force that is a branch of the arm of God. Our own troubles makes us fit to be used by the divine.
