Hi Peeps,

Today's Quote

"The Good Deal that God has for you is right in front of your eyes every day if you listen, open up your heart, mind, and senses to the truth, centered in front of your face, by faith; if you don't walk away." ~ Jon Barnes

When Opportunity

When The Opportunity comes to help, give, and love by faith, will you be there to do the good job, acting, and following through to add the water and work? Did you listen and do what you were told or did you walk away from the action and heat, just because you are uncomfortable? Being still and lazy is not an option. Get out of your virtual reality and start living with people, who are a vital part of your deal and physical reality in space and time.

New Experience

New experiences are wrapped up into old fashioned work ethics of faith, that separates the doers from the thinkers. Thinking and talking about experience is NOT the Good New Experience you need to move ahead in doing the job. You must work into your faith and fear not, since God is with your Good Work in the deal. There is no deal to close if you don't walk through the work by faith, leaving behind the sins of the flesh.

Complete the work in your imagination, seeing the end results, as you take steps in the right direction in reality. When your steps are ordered by God and you stand still, your faith is deactivated, denied, delayed, and derailed by your own hands and faulty imagination of disobedience. Do all of the work, stop taking short cuts, and activate your faith in the moment of time you have right now, obeying God at every step.

    In today’s society, people are swept up in the wrath of being too prideful, or become greedy. These deadly sins deaden our religious life, causing us to distance ourselves from God’s path. Everyone must dig deep into their spiritual lives, and lend a helping hand to those who need it the most. Whether it’s simply having a conversation with a homeless person, donating money, or volunteering at a daycare for the destitute children, these charitable acts can make a huge difference in someone’s life. My service learning experience was an eye opener for me, and it made me realize how privileged and blessed I truly am.…

    Cotton encourages those seeking out a calling to seek out “the most homeliest and difficultest and most dangerous things his calling can lead and expose himself to,” (Cotton 71). This displays the importance of the bodily nature not only to exemplify obedience, but to persevere one 's faith. Cotton recognizes the importance of our spiritual nature and that the Lord is concerned about it and wants our faith and hope in Him, but Cotton simply depicts that it is evident that the best way to portray this spiritual nature is through our bodily nature and its willingness and responses to God’s calling. Cotton even declares that “faith with boldness resigns up his calling into the hands of God or man” (Cotton 73). This boldness that Cotton refers to is the spiritual faith that our bodily nature puts to work.…

    On a blazing hot afternoon, I was with my Peer Ministry. It seemed like our whole group, interacting with the sizable population of homeless on the streets of Riverside, CA, was working like a fast food crew; we were distributing food from our cars at a superhuman pace. This activity seemed like any ordinary job our group did together — until I handed a brown paper bag to a homeless African American man. His expression registered shock. He put his hand on my shoulder and said, “Son, how did you know I needed help?”…

    Through reading this book I have learning many things. To begin with, I have learned that patterns exist in neglectful parenting styles. For instance, in the book the author talks about Marquita, who was given adult like responsibilities as a young girl, such as caring for her older and young siblings and finding her drunk mother at night in order to bring her home. Because of her mother’s lack of care, Marquita started to run away from home, where she became pregnant, dropped out of school, and mothered four children from three different fathers. Soon enough, she became a drug addict and her children were taken from her until she cleaned up.…

    Creating a Catholic high school for low income students, with a work study program that helps students pay for their tuition, but is also a college preparatory high school, with cura personalis as its building block sounds like a dream.

By 2001, The Cristo Rey Network of schools was created, now including 30 schools nationwide. So the real question here is: How did he do it?…

    Learning to entrust in God, I am beginning to live life courageously and more engaged and in tuned to the priceless things life has to offer like interpersonal relationships. My worth is not measured by my failures but only by the limitations I placed upon myself. During my spiritual journey I realize self-assessments and evaluations are essentials to overcome personal challenges with integrity, commitment and boldness. As I navigate through life, it is not in my personal powers to control my surroundings but my behavior responses and personal choices. “I am not a product of my circumstances.…

    Being an immigrant born in a Christian family from a far east Asian country, i was always exposed to different and vibrant cultures. As a kid, my dad used to teach Korean to other Korean immigrants in the neighborhood, and I met many different people through school and our Korean lessons.

    I knew that I was only sinking in deeper into this desperate need for answers, but I didn’t question my circumstance, instead I watch myself turn into a religious robot. I was there physically, but mentally I was in another world. I wanted what I could not have, my loneliness outgrew my happiness, and through it all I knew I could not simply express my feelings because I was supposed to be “perfect” and “an example to others”. My “smile” hid my actual outlooks, I thought I was doing the right thing, I thought I knew everything there was to know about the bible and Christianity, but little did I know that being born in a certain environment does not make you part of a certain group. To conclude, little by little, these mental spiritual damages changed my personality and my view on Christianity.…

    The grace and mercy God extended to us has allowed us to live and serve Him along the path towards eternity in heaven. There are times that some may not fully understand why God continues to bless us with opportunities to serve our purpose even though we sin daily. That reason would be because God loves us, and that love is unconditional. Throughout this paper the grace and mercy we have been given will be inter-connected to three parts. Those parts will include theological definition, biblical foundation, and practical application.…

    The one verse I will forever live by is Psalm 143:8, “Let the morning bring the word of Your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in You. Show me the way I should go, for to You I entrust my life”. This verse tells me that I do not need to fear about singing in front people, or fear befriending people, or fear leading others, or fear anything in this world because the moment I gave my heart to God, He continually held onto it with such a delicacy. He knows that I trust and have faith in Him, and likewise, I know He trusts and has faith in me. Many people do not think about God having faith and trust in them, but He does.…
