Billy Graham

Young people are searching. But they don't really know what they're searching for. They're hungry for something. Materialism hasn't satisfied. Sex hasn't satisfied. They're searching for something.

I tell young people that God loves them, that God is interested in them, and that he wants to help us in this life. Not just in the future life, but here and now. Young people are doing so many good things. Sometimes we promote the idea that all kids are bad. Well, they're not!

There are thousands of kids out there who are doing the very best that they possibly can, not only for the Lord Jesus, but for their communities and for their families and for the other people around them. There's a lot of homelessness, and young people are helping to build houses. A lot of them are involved in feeding people who are hungry.

With all of the problems that people face, you may be asking, "Where is Jesus?" He is alive, and he can be with each one of you. The Christmas message tells us that. It answers all of the questions that have plagued the human race since time began. It goes straight to our searching hearts and tells us that Christ alone can bring us lasting peace—peace with God, peace among people and nations, and peace within our hearts.


COOL STAFF!!!

Depending on Him Alone

One of my bigger influences as a preacher in the area of applying the word of God to my life as an everyday source is Joyce Mayer. I love her way of preaching because she is open to tell us about her mistakes and I truly appreciate someone who is willing to share they up and down.
So this morning I check her daily devotional at work and it really impact my life so I decide to post it in our blog.

Then Jerubbaal, that is, Gideon, and all the people who were with him rose early and encamped beside the spring ofHarod; and the camp ofMidian was north of them by the hill ofMoreh in the valley. The Lord said to Gideon, The people who are with you are too many for Me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel boast about themselves against Me, saying, My own hand has delivered me. So now proclaim in the ears of the men, saying, Whoever is fearful and trembling, let him turn back and depart from Mount Gilead. And 22,000 of the men returned, but 10,000 remained.
—Judges 7:1-3

Instead of telling Gideon, who was facing a major battle, that He would give him more men, God told him that he had too many for God to give him the victory. Interestingly enough, sometimes God works through our weaknesses better than through our strengths. There are times when we have too much going for us in the natural for God to give the victory. We are not in line for a miracle if anyone but God can help us. God was telling Gideon that they were too strong in themselves, that He wanted them in a position where they would have to depend entirely on Him. Pride and boasting ruin the best of men so God has to help us stay humble and, under His mighty hand, totally dependent on Him.

Hope you find it interest it too.

God Bless you !

Why some people are successful!

By Nancy vinasco

My lovely husband and I are going to reach our first anniversary and we are so amazing of how many things we have learned and GOD has been with us at all times even in those tricky adjusting moments... if you marry you will know what I mean by that ...if not you will find out soon.

We are so please and so grateful to God … We have been growing in the minister our Wednesday cell group is getting stronger and we had a great time at pastors house last Wednesday …Football time with them was great ….. Saturday cell group is also growing and more teenagers have been receiving Christ. I also started a new job about month ago and it has been a fabulous experience as I had the opportunity to meet such a wonderful people

My husband and I also managed to lunch our family business couple of months ago www.blossomwedding.co.uk things are going well …our main goal in this area is to form what you call a Group company so we are currently developing this idea GOD IS GOOD.

Our Pastors and Leaders at church (Christian Community of London) always encourage us to grow in every way so we and our co-workers at church take the initiate to start a POSSITIVE RALLY WEEK - so we set a challenge of just talk positive things 24/7 this week…Let’s see how it goes.. …I will let you now more about this next time …

So this challenge inspire me to write about being positive and like everyone else I have been spent some time thinking about why some people are so successful in life. And what factors in success that are under more personal control than others.

Successful people might be intelligent or have had socially well connected upbringings. Or be naturally energetic and open and positive.

But a lot of the factors that make some people more successful at almost anything in life are very much under their control. And much can be improved in anyone’s life by learning from the people that have gone before us and obviously from "GOD" the master and his word.

Here are some of the thoughts on success that I have come up with from reading/watching documentaries throughout the years about people such as Michael Jordan, Thomas Edison, Eleanor Roosevelt and Henry Ford. The following factors of success are just a few and I’m quite sure there are a lot more.

They make decisions and take action
they take actions even thou they may fail at the beginning but either way it’s always better than making no decisions and taking no action at all. As Franklin Roosevelt said:

“It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.”

They do things even when they don't feel like it
I think this is a pretty huge factor. A lot of us back down when we don’t want to do something, even though it may eventually bring us to a wonderful experience or goal. Successful people may not always like doing some of the things they have to do. But they do them anyway. And in the longer run that makes all the difference.

They do the most productive thing right now
Instead of trapping themselves in doing productive but not so important tasks or projects they realise what’s most important and do that. And after they are done with that they do what’s most important again. Instead of just doing a lot of things, they think and plan before they act and try to focus as much as possible of their thoughts and actions on those few very important things.

They do one thing at a time
Many of them don’t seem to multi-task. Some reasons for avoiding that may be that it creates internal confusion, wastes time and spreads the multi-tanker too thinly. Instead, they do one thing and focus on that until it is done. Then they do the next thing until it is done. Focusing 100% on one task at a time will get it done quicker and better.

They have a positive attitude
A negative attitude can be very damaging and limiting our life. A positive one can open new doors every day. It can open your mind to new ideas and input and create or sustain great relationships. It helps you through the hard times as a successful person often sees an opportunity within what others would merely see as a problem this will be achieving by.

They have redefined failure
While a lot of people see failure as a way to rationalizing the feeling of wanting to giving up or as a sign that actually is time to do something else , successful people tend to see it more as useful feedback. They may not like to fail, but they don’t fear it – or at least they have little fear of it - and they know that if they fail they’ve been there before and they can start over again and succeed. This is of course a very useful belief and keeps successful people going while the rest have already given up.

They don’t let fear hold them back
They overcome fear and slay that dragon whenever they face it. Or they may have defined or redefined reality so that fear is substantially decreased or even gone in some areas of their life.

Doing this enables you to take action on your thoughts. This pulls down the barriers in the mind and create new roads and opens up to whole new possibilities.

They have found a purpose in life
They are internally driven rather than externally driven. They do what they have a burning desire to do rather than conforming to what others think they should do. Even if what the others think may be positive and successful stuff.

The Michael Jordans, the Edisons and the Stephen Kings have figured out what they want to do in life and are doing it (or did it).

The purpose, I think, is largely why they can keep on going and be motivated while others may tire or just go and do something else that they find more purposeful. The successes love their purpose and when they aligned with it then it seems to push them forward with enthusiasm and energy through life.

They don’t get distracted
When others get too caught up in everyday life to do what they really want to do the successes don’t. They can really focus on actually doing what’s important and what needs to be done. Again, this seems to go back to having a purpose and more clear sense of direction in life.

They value their time highly and plan it out well
A lot of people don’t value their time that much. Successful people have a purpose in life and therefore they do. They have so much they want and an inner urge to do it and therefore need to plan well to use their days effectively.

They have an open mind and are willing to learn
Successful people take the time to study and learn – and often seem to really like doing it - what is necessary to improve their skills. They are open to thoughts, suggestions, solutions, new information and change rather than thinking they already know everything, that there is not much more to learn and that everything should be as it has always been.

What to focus on?
Now, what factors are the most important ones, where should one focus the energy? I am currently focusing on improving my ability to take action, doing what I may not feel like doing and doing the most productive thing right now. To me it seems like these three factors are very important and since they are pretty interconnected they are easy to combine.

STAY BLESS
