~Inspiration~ Thought for the Day ~Twenty-Four Hours a Day

'Be assured this has been learned over the past two decades, that since putting God
in my life, striving to discipline myself spiritually, has surely allowed a different perspective on my life.
I believe the most significant aspect is earnestly striving to adhere to the principles of life according to
the wisdom of Christ's teachings of "fruits of the Holy Spirit."


'The fruit of the Spirit, including love, joy, peace, and patience, is a natural result of the Holy Spirit's work
in a believer's heart, and wisdom helps to cultivate these qualities. I believe much of the world's weariness
would surely be lessened when and/or if one learns to apply and to act upon the attributes of the Holy Spirit.'

'I believe without spiritual discipline, worldly efforts will surely diminish the ability
to hope for spiritual discipline. I have learned materialism is a great hindrance in
striving for spiritual discipline, here in the now.'

'Reconciliation requires grasping the truth.'

In 2 Corinthians 5:18-20, Paul writes that God gave us the ministry of reconciliation, as ones who have been reconciled by Christ. We also know that truth is equally important. It is captured so well in 1 John 3:18, where we are challenged to, “not love with words or speech, but with actions and truth.”

'I have learned over the years that the guidance of God's Spirit has greatly enhanced
my relationship with those around me, believe it. I have come to rely on the remembrance of
focusing on the inspired teachings of Jesus Christ in my coming and going, here in the now.'


'I believe keeping with proper remembrance and striving to act upon God's wisdom surely has
significantly influenced how I have learned to strive for spiritual discipline in all my coming and going.
Life has become more orderly, believe it.'


'Perhaps when one becomes more spiritually influenced, much of worldly foolishness will be eliminated.
Sadly, worldly notions surely prevail over spiritual realism. Many might do well to actively attempt
to grasp precisely the concept of spiritual realism. Surely spiritual reality may be known, but not
fully comprehended to the point of actively practicing this in one's daily life.'

'Thank God I have surely learned the importance of maintaining calmness in different
circumstances that have and do arise in life. I believe holding with calmness allows the potential
to acquire better choices and/or decisions challenges that are sure to arise.'


'In the 'go fast' pace of life, make no mistake, calmness should certainly be maintained to help
eliminate frustration and anxiety that often merely enhances more of the same.'


'I share many 'readings' as they have been instrumental for many years in helping me cope
with life challenges, so long as I learn to apply the wisdom in my life, which I have found
to be profound, believe it. I believe these 'readings' with the spiritual overtone surely can
be understood by the weakest mind.'


'Each year I start from page one as this is and has been my daily reading and contemplation as each day passes.
Over the past two decades, spiritual inspiration has surely been a great influence in my life. Believe it.
Sound understandable language with God as the co-pilot is indispensable in this life.'

'I have learned to focus on my own challenges and it is not for me to attempt to judge
another person. I can only listen and share my own experiences and give support and
encouragement to others.'


'I believe each has their own relationship with God and likely no one will make a big
difference in how others perceive one's personal relationship. Sadly, some look in
many places and listen to a variety of 'entertainment evangelism' which produces
mixed emotions and concepts, only to further one's confusion.'


'I have learned the spiritual reality and awareness of striving to have a God consciousness
helps to stay grounded in the principles of life and to focus on spiritual discipline the best I
can according to my ability.'

'I believe the experience of God's reign is not something that happens externally, but rather
an internal transformation or spiritual awareness. It implies a state of being where God's values, principles, and love
are present in one's heart and mind, leading to a life of purpose, peace, and connection with the Divine.'


'I believe any transformation and/or change of heart to believe this truth surely requires a spiritual
awakening that I believe does not take place in everyone, otherwise there would surely be a different
tone of language within the body of a Christian community.'


'Without a sound spiritual reckoning in one's life, worldly foolishness will surely bring the cause
of going alone with worldly notions outside of spiritual reality. And when this occurs, one often lives
in a delusional fantasy world.'

The "Kingdom of God" refers to the reign of God over his creation, both now and in the future, established through
his Messiah, Jesus Christ. It's a concept encompassing God's rule, not just in a specific place, but in the hearts and lives
of those who acknowledge him. Essentially, it's about God's power and authority, demonstrated through Jesus,
and the way he restores and renews all things.


'I have learned the importance of striving for spiritual discipline and this surely helps in living in
a materialistic world. Acquiring a spiritual attitude toward life has helped with worldly distractions
and not being as a great hindrance as once was in this life.


'I believe one must seriously look within self to know and grow in God's Kingdom, here in the now.'

'Preparing involves calling upon the Lord, coming to God in a relationship, praying, and seeking the Lord with all our hearts.
Our faith is not one more item on a “to-do” list. Our faith forms our “to be and to do” list. Throughout Matthew’s Gospel,
Jesus teaches people about living and growing in a relationship with God. Jesus stresses that being spiritually alive
means not just knowing religious information, or even saying we believe certain doctrines, but doing what Jesus teaches

regarding love for God and neighbor.

'I believe these words to be profound truth and wisdom that many unconsciously ignore and/or simply fail to fully comprehend
the significance of spiritual preparation here in the now. And this surely does not include adding worldly foolishness
to suit one's own selfish agenda.'
