Aug 2022 – Removing Barriers Releasing Potential

**World’s opinion on some of the qualities we should have for a good life.**

Christian qualities we ought to live by?

Christians should be God-fearing and humble. They should display the fruit of the Spirit given in Galatians 6: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, and self-control. While no Christians possess these qualities perfectly, we must and will continually grow in them as a result of the Spirit’s work in us.

Your personal quality of life depends on the quality of your thoughts. The kind of thinking you have takes your life in that direction. You always have a choice as to how you want to live your life.

What I take from the passage above is that this is the world’s always focusing on the individual, what I want to do, as if I have freedom of choice. Well whatever your views, what if seriously what if we decided to live God’s way and choose the right path!

Let’s look at:

Giving up means you will be yielding, surrendering, relinquishing, relinquishment

As a human being I’m sure that there are times when for a brief moment we may feel like giving up, yielding to what seems an impossible mountain to get over.

We are called to be conquers, Romans 8:37 tells us ‘No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us’. Jesus loves us and calls all not some but all of us to lead!! Remember at the basic level you are called to lead YOU, and care called to be the best person you can be and not what others tell our you are.

Ok so let’s visualise this mountain of yours, what does it look like? How do you feel when you see the mountain? What thoughts, feelings and behaviours do you exhibit?
