WHOLE
The real you will never be revealed as long as you are looking for it. It
will only come when you are looking for the Source. When you are earnestly seeking the Truth.
Does that sound strange? The same principle holds for more everyday matters. Even in social life, you will never make a good impression on other people until you stop thinking about what sort of impression you are making.

In
literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be
original, whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring
twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of
ten, become original without ever having noticed it.
The principle runs through all life from top to bottom. Give up yourself, and you will find who you truly are. Lose your life and you will save it. Keep nothing back. Nothing that you have not already given away will ever really be yours. Nothing in you that has not already died will ever be made whole.

CROWN OF THORNES
Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training.
They do it
to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that
will last forever.
Therefore I do not run like someone running
aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air.

GOOD FRUIT
After
the storm has passed and things have been taken
away from us, we are always given more in return if we stay the course.
Whatever poverty we are led into, it is always in order
that we might be blessed with glorious riches that can only be found at the Source.
Generosity
breeds generosity.
Whenever the Source manifests in our hearts there is always an abundant
overflowing.
Life.
Love.
Joy.
Peace.
Patience.
Kindness.
Goodness.
Faithfulness.
Gentleness.
Self-control.
Good fruit.
Putting our faith in God
first means taking the spotlight away from ourselves; away from our pain.
You
have to lose to win.
Pain is no measure of God's faithfulness;
rain is no measure of God's love for us.
No good thing from us,
no good thing from us;
He withholds no good thing
from us.
Let the Source
change you and you will change the world.

BRAND NEW
This new way of life cannot be explained or explored through old
lifestyles and philosophies. This new way of life is totally NEW. Different. Radical.
Counter-cultural.
I am a shadow of who I was created to be. Things have distorted the truth: reality has become like a dream and the dream has become like a reality. The more I breath, live
and dwell in the Spirit of Truth the more I am becoming the real
me.
It's
a metamorphosis- flowing freely from death to life, and then more and more alive
through many more small deaths. That's a life after the heart of God. Living
a new way of life after death.
