Always believe in Him even when I don’t believe in myself.

Exhausted, never the right time to go
God, I done my time to go
Never the right time to go
God loves you
Love when you choose your steps
Gotta make it right before you left
Gotta make it right before you–
Everybody wanna feel like everything gon' be right
New me over the old me
Let it out, let it all out
God, please set it alright
Make it right, now that feels right
Nothing else ever feels right
Nothing else ever feels right

good story

faith in Him is high even when my faith in me is low

And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard. You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

Acts 20:35

WE ALL GOING TO HELL

THE USE OF THE SPIRITUAL OR SUPER-CONSCIOUS MIND

All inspiration comes from the Universal Mind, via the super-conscious. What we get from the super-conscious is direct inspiration from higher planes. This higher mind might also be called the Mind of Illumination, for those who can enter into it become illumined, being able to know the Truth and to see things as they really are, and not as they falsely appear to the senses.

This limited consciousness in which we live is bounded by our five senses. The universe that we see around us is partly real and partly an illusion. The real universe is Spiritual and infinite: what we sense is a limited, partial conception of a fragment of it. Our limited, finite conception of the universe is entirely misleading and erroneous, and so long as we rely on sense evidence and the human mind, we remain in darkness and uncertainty. When, however, we can rise into the super-conscious realm, our consciousness expands, transcending the senses and the limitations of the physical plane.

The Spiritual mind is, of course, only accessible to those who are more delicately attuned to its finer vibrations. Nothing that is worth having can be had without effort, and it is only after much self-discipline that it becomes possible for the student to raise his consciousness to this higher realm and understand life from the standpoint of the Universal Mind.

If ever a person is to bring forth a new idea which shall enrich humanity and add to the common good, it must come through the higher mind.

One who is properly attuned, becomes, through the super-conscious mind, a recipient of knowledge that is above human, and wisdom that is divine.

Let it be said here that all Wisdom must come from within. While books and the written word may be helpful, it is the Spirit within the reader that illumines the word, and makes it real and true to the seeker after Wisdom. One who realizes that he is illumined within by the Divine Spirit, and that this alone can bring him into real knowledge, is well advanced on the Path that leads to realization.

WITHIN YOU IS THE POWER

INFINITE LIFE AND POWER

When man, in his search for Truth, has given up all selfish striving after unworthy things, and has ceased to use his self-will in conflict with the greater Will of the Whole, he is ready for the revelation of his oneness with the Infinite.

INFINITE LIFE AND POWER

There is a power lying hidden in man, by the use of which he can rise to higher and better things.

Man possesses, did he but know it, illimitable Power. This Power is of the Spirit, therefore it is unconquerable. It is not the power of the ordinary life, or finite will, or human mind. It transcends these, because, being spiritual, it is of a higher order than either physical or even mental. This Power lies dormant, and is hidden within man until he is sufficiently evolved and unfolded to be entrusted with its use.

Thought is a spiritual power of tremendous potency, but this is not the power of which we speak. By thought, man can either raise himself up and connect himself with the ‘Power House’ of the Universe, or cut himself off entirely from the Divine Inflow. His thought is his greatest weapon, because, by it he can either draw on the Infinite or sever himself (in consciousness, but not in reality) from his Divine Source.

Through the Divine Spark within him, which is really his real Self, man is connected with the Infinite. Divine Life and Power are his, if he realizes that they are his. So long as he is ignorant of his oneness with the Divine Source of all life, he is incapable of appropriating the power that is really his. If, however, he enters into this inner knowledge, he finds himself the possessor of infinite power and unlimited resources.

This Power, then, is God’s, yet it is also man’s, but it is not revealed to him until he is fit to be entrusted with it. It is only when man realizes his oneness with his Divine Source that he becomes filled with Its power.

When man, in his search for Truth, has given up all selfish striving after unworthy things, and has ceased to use his self-will in conflict with the greater Will of the Whole, he is ready for the revelation of his oneness with the Infinite.

The power within is infinite, for, by faith in it, man is directly ‘coupled up’ with the Spiritual Power of the Universe.

A change, then, must take place within man before he can enter into his Divine inheritance. He must learn to think after the Spirit, i.e., as a spiritual being, instead of after the flesh, i.e., as a material creature.

For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ.

Hebrews 3:14

Non religious person but really interested If anyone ITT who is Christian has seen the recent ads "He Gets Us" promoting Jesus and funded by a billion dollar Christian fund to kind of revamp the image of Christianity in the US due to declining religious rates.

Do you guys feel like that's a good use of the money?

Do you think the ads are even neccesary?

Do you think that there's been a decrease in religious people?

Do you feel like Christians have a bad reputation in America rn and you think it's fair?

Just really interesting situation that speaks to the kind of unique Christian capitalism that exist in America and also is kind of rich Christians in America admitting things aren't going well in their opinions.

I'd like to hear more so regular people's thoughts because I think the whole thing is interesting and it's not alot of places beyond churches you can get a dedicated group of you guys to maybe ask this stuff.

I think the whole thing is a waste of time and money. They need to be more specific about who Christ is and what His mission on earth was. I like the attempt but I don't think that people should come into Christianity and leave because they got baited by the wrong message. There definitely been a decrease of Christians but I'm not surprised tbh.

I feel like msm is trying to smear Christians as bad people but I never here people talking bad about Christians in real life. We definitely deserved to get criticized for all of the Trump nonsense though. All those rich Christians should read James 5:1-6 and seriously reflect on their actions.
