REAL POWER: MAXING OUT ON GOD'S LOVE |
GOD’S LOVE CHANGES WHO
YOU ARE
How does God’s love do its miraculous
work?
1.
First, it changes the way you
think.
2.
Second, it changes the way you
feel.
3.
Third, it changes the way you
live.
First, you experience God’s love
intellectually, and that changes the way you think. You need to
change the way you think about many things. When you look at your
limitations, you need to change the way you think. When you look at
your failures, you need to change the way you think. When you look
at your past, you need to change the way you think. When you look at
the present, you need to change the way you think. When you look at
the future, you need to change the way you think. When you look at
who you are and what you can do with your life, you need to change the
way you think.
Once you start thinking differently,
the emotional healing begins, and God’s love changes the way you
feel.
Your emotions are the direct result
of the thoughts that you put into your mind. When you think new
thoughts, you experience new emotions that are consistent with those
thoughts. Your new thoughts become the musical score for a new
emotional symphony that plays in your heart and mind. When God is the
author of your new thoughts, the melody of God’s love starts playing,
and good things happen in your life.
God designed your mind to function
best when it’s under the influence of his love. When your mind is
full of thoughts consistent with his love, your mind is exactly the
way God means for it to be.
God designed your heart so it would
experience healthy emotions when it’s dominated by his love. When
your heart is full of emotions consistent with his love, your heart is
exactly the way God means for it to be.
Once you start thinking new thoughts
and enjoying new positive emotions, another miracle happens. You
start taking new actions. You even start doing things you could never
do before. New actions mean a new life, and that is exactly what
happens. God’s love rolls through your heart and mind, and you become
a new person with a new life.
But that isn’t all the good news.
You also establish a new relationship with the Great Physician who
will use the power of love to transform your life. He will not give
you a placebo or Love Potion Number Nine. He will give you the real
thing, unconditional love that lasts forever. No matter what your
problems are or how long they have been present, God’s love will work
on them until the job is done. God is in it with you for the long
haul.
How long will it take for your life
to get better? That depends. How much time are you willing to invest
in your new life? There is no specific timetable for improvement.
You write your own schedule of healing based upon the amount of time
you spend focusing on God’s love.
Ten minutes of focusing on God’s love
is better than no minutes at all, but that doesn’t give God much time
to fix what ails you. Dabbling in God’s love is doing things the long
hard way. If you want God’s love to do its miraculous work, you must
become totally immersed in it. You must practice God’s presence every
day, all day long. Only then will your heart and mind be continuously
exposed to the healing power of his love.
DYING OF THIRST IN
GOD’S OCEAN OF LOVE
Imagine what would happen if you took
a large drink of water and decided that since you have experienced
what it’s like to drink water, you don’t need to drink it anymore.
You have been there and done that, and it’s time to move on to other
things.
No one would be so foolish to do such
a thing. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what some people do with God’s
love. They drink deeply of it only one time, and then they move on to
other things. Instead of focusing on God’s love, they focus on the
trivial events of life. Soon they die of spiritual thirst even though
they are immersed in God’s ocean of love.
JUMP INTO GOD’S OCEAN
OF LOVE
Imagine what would happen if your
mother gave you a bath on the day you were born, and after that, she
never bathed you again. For the next eighty years, a drop of water
never touched your body.
It wouldn’t be long before everyone
could tell by the smell it was you when you walked down the street.
Although you might have a few friends, you wouldn’t have any close
ones. They could not endure the stench of being near you. You would
only have distant friends and relatives. There is no such thing as a
bath that lasts a lifetime.
God’s love works the same way. Your
mind easily fills up with the toxic waste of the twenty-first
century. If you don’t wash the trash and toxic waste out of your mind
every day, the stench will become unbearable. You will develop a
major case of stinking thinking, and your emotional wounds will not
heal. You desperately need a clean mind and a pure heart, and the
only way to make it happen is to wash your heart and mind with God’s
love every day.
You must jump into God’s ocean of
love and allow it to wash you from the top of your head to the tip of
your toes. When you do that, your life is never the same. You are
born spiritually, and you become a new person. Old things pass away,
and all things become new. You look at the world with new eyes and
listen with new ears. You think new thoughts, take new actions, and
have a new life.
God’s love changes the way you think
and feel. He gives you a clean mind and a pure heart. Your old way
of thinking and feeling is gone. Your mistakes and failures are cast
into his ocean of love. For the first time in your life, you dare to
call God your Father and live as one of his children. God’s love
heals your damaged emotions and washes the toxic waste from your
mind. Your negative feelings and guilt are washed away in a tidal
wave of love.
Each day you must jump into God’s
ocean of love and have a life transforming experience. Dabbling in it
will never do. This is not something you do just once and the
positive effects last for a lifetime. You must do it every day for
the rest of your life. For as long as you live, you must max out on
God’s love.
Affirmation:
When I jump into God’s ocean of love, my life is never the same. I am
born spiritually, and I become a new person. Old things pass away,
and all things become new. I look at the world with new eyes and
listen with new ears. I think new thoughts, take new actions, and
have a new life. Each day I jump into God’s ocean of love and have a
life transforming experience. This is not something I do just once,
and the positive effects last for a lifetime. I must do it every day
for the rest of my life. For as long as I am alive, I will max out on
God’s love.
