Let the beast thump it's chest, stomp and bellow like an angry bull! Let it proudly think it won the battle, for it's too blind to see, IT'S LOST THE WAR! There's nothing human about it! It's THE BEAST of the instinctual, egocentric nature of the flesh, that God named Satan and man calls ego and which stains (marks) your character (thoughts, words and deeds/forehead[mind] and right hand[actions]), with its characteristic pride, vanity,...

Kids today! It's a common cry of the older generations, in every generation. But honestly, what is it with kids today? As a parent of a number of children who have all 'grown up', except my youngest, 16 year old daughter who still lives with me, I look at how the younger generation today expect to have everything handed to them on a silver platter and if they don't get what they want or like what they hear, the beast of their flesh...

One of the reasons I left my farm in the Australian bush and first wife, was because God told me I couldn't hide my light in the bush, and one day, 20 years later, I left my home again and walked out one night, in the middle of winter, until about midnight I sat under a bush on the side of the road, literally freezing my butt off and cried out to the Lord, 'Lord, I can't take it anymore, I'm ready to come home and be done with this...

When you get right down to the nitty gritty of it all, everything wrong in our lives and in the world, is because of ego and particularly it's characteristic pride, from which it gets its strength. The difference between right and wrong, is the difference between what's virtuous (good) and what's unvirtuous (bad). It's the pride, vanity, envy, selfishness, ambition, lust, greed, desire for creature comforts and fear for survival of the...

You have to dig deep to find it! But first, you have to get past the bodyguard of your own ego, overcome it and the world that's sprung from it. That means, every spot of its characteristic pride, vanity, envy, selfishness, ambition, lust, greed, desire for creature comfort and fear for survival, along with every blemish of worldly (instinctual & egocentric) cares, concerns, desires, hopes and dreams. And if anyone thinks that he knows...

God calls it Satan, while man calls it ego. We in His League of True Love call it, the instinctual, egocentric self, that makes YOU your own worst enemy and stains (marks) your character, with its characteristic pride, vanity, envy, selfishness, ambition, lust, greed, desire for creature comfort and fear for survival. My ex-wife, is as usual, running from pillar to post and going through a lot of drama. She said to me, "I'm sick of...

Nobody can serve two masters. You can't live for love and ego. But the natural (instinctual, egocentric) man does not receive the (virtuous) things of the Spirit (divine nature) of God (absolute love), for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually (supernaturally) discerned. 1 Corinthians 2:14 In eternity, it's all very simple. It's all to do with human nature and what's known as heaven, is the...

Virtue of the Week
PERSEVERANCE
lion-like characteristic
Perseverance is being steadfast and persistent. You commit to your goals and overcome obstacles, no matter how long it takes. When you persevere, you don't give up...you keep going. Like a strong ship in a storm, you don't become battered or blown off course. You just ride the waves.
And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseveranceRomans 5:3
