EAGER FOR HAPPINESS

EAGER FOR HAPPINESS

Be eager and strive

earnestly to guard

and keep the  harmony

and oneness of (and

produced by)

the Spirit in the binding

power of peace.

(Ephesians 4. 3)

POINTS FOR REFLECTION

AND MEDITATION

1) The pursuit of peace

is only possible by the

attitude of humility,

gentleness, forgiveness

and kindness which

characterizes Jesus. His

character traits allow

us to pursue peace

successfully. These character

traits are acquired  by being

filled with the Holy Spirit.

2) When we are intentional

and intense in the pursuit

of harmony and oneness

with the binding and

uniting power of the

Holy Spirit we are

able to make progress

in achieving peace.

3) If you are eager for happiness

this is the key to lasting happiness.

PRAISE THE LORD JESUS

FOR HIS MOST PHENOMENAL GIFT!

HAPPY LIVING

HAPPY LIVING

Living as becomes you

with complete lowliness

of mind (humility) and

meekness (unselfishness,

gentleness, mildness),

with patience, bearing

with one another and

making allowances because

you love one another.

POINTS FOR MEDITATION

AND PRAISE

1) What characterizes Jesus Christ’s

attitude towards humanity? His

character traits, attitude and behavior

are  our example.

2) Happiness is doing what brings

everlasting rewards.

Happy living requires following the

example set by Jesus Christ, the

Captain of our salvation.

3) Let this same attitude and purpose

and humble mind be in you which was

in Christ Jesus: ( Let Him be your example

in humility:)

Who, although being essentially one with

God (possessing the fullness of the attributes

of God), did not think this equality with God

was something to be eagerly … Continue Reading

TRANSFORMED

TRANSFORMED

Therefore, if there is any consolation

in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any

fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection

and mercy,

Fulfill my joy by being like minded,

having the same love, being of one

accord, of one mind.

Let nothing be done through selfish

ambition or conceit, but in lowliness

of mind let each esteem others better

than himself.

Let each of you look out not only for

his own interests, but also for the

interests of others.

Let this mind be in you which was also

in Christ Jesus,

Who, although being essentially one

with God and in the form of God

(possessing the fullness of the attributes

which make God Who He Is), … Continue Reading

Noble

For if any person thinks himself

to be somebody (too important

to condescend to shoulder another’s

load) when he  is nobody

(of superiority except in his own

estimation), he deceives and

deludes himself.

But let every person carefully

scrutinize and analyze his own

behavior, attitude and work.

He can then have the satisfaction

and joy of doing something

commendable and not in

boastful comparison with others.

( Galatians 6.3-5).

And let us not lose heart and

grow weary in acting nobly

and doing right, for in due

time and at the appointed

season we shall reap, if we

do not loosen our resolve.

(Galatians 6.9).
