Positive Minute--The Greatest Possibility Thinker Part V
"Pray constantly." - I Thessalonians 5:17
Jesus lived in a Jewish colony where some believed He was indeed the promised Messiah. Every Jew awaited the day God would come to the world, born of a virgin, to live like a human, despised and rejected of men, just like the prophet Isaiah had written. To many, Jesus was the Messiah. To others, He was a liar.
"My Father and I are one," he said, claiming unity with God, the Father. "That's blasphemy!" unbelievers cried.
"I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father but by me." Cynics cried out all the more. Whispers were all over town.
Sure, He preached to thousands who believed He healed many people through His miracles. Yet when He claimed, "I am the Resurrection and the Life. He who believes in me shall never die," even they could not deny the rumors that He claimed to be the Messiah. Jesus had the courage of His convictions. He knew the truth and did not sway from it.
Jesus drew His courage and strength from God, the Father. And He did it through prayer.
Positive Prayer Produces powerful possibilities.

' 'Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?' Jesus said to him, 'I do not say to you seven times, but seventy times seven.' ' - Matthew 18:21,22
Carefully study Jesus' life. Psychoanalyze His acceptance into society - the way people put Him down, misinterpreted Him, and criticized Him. He was a sure candidate to grow up emotionally deprived, prone to violence, soaked with frustration, and destined to be a reactionary - a revolutionary who would lead the guerrillas out of the desert to attack the Romans at night. He'd be a radical terrorist with a cause of liberation that would build an army of men to march through the streets and assault Pilate's camp in Jerusalem. Jesus could have easily turned out to be a terrorist.
Jesus, the Man who had all of the negative stimuli within His psyche that could have turned Him into a negative radical reactionary, went through His thirty-three years as anything but that type of man.
Most of us would have to admit that we have not been subjected to as much negative stimuli as Jesus. Then compared to His life, ours hasn't been all that bad. We need to get off the 'me' and onto the 'He.' He is our example. He is The Way.
Forgiveness frees me to live positively, enthusiastically, even in the midst of a storm. "

"I will tell of thy name to my brethren, in the midst of the congregation I will praise thee." - Psalm 22.22
Jesus belonged to a family with no prestige or high-ladder connections. They were on the low social rung. His father was a simple carpenter. His mother, a peasant woman. Some said His mother conceived miraculously. Others disbelieved, and said, in fact, He was conceived out of wedlock. The rumors He heard, the people He met, the language He was exposed to, was the gossip and crudity of the Nazarenes.

"Behold we call those happy who were steadfast. - James 5:11"
Daily Manna from the 'Net for Wednesday, August 18
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, 'I love God,' yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother. 1 John 4:16-21

申命記十一章12節寫到：「你們要過去得為業的那地，乃是有山、有谷、雨水滋潤之地。是耶和華你 神所眷顧的，從歲首到年終，耶和華你神的眼目時常看顧那地。」
「神未曾應許天色常藍，人生的路途花香常漫。神未曾應許常晴無雨，常樂無痛苦、 常安無虞。神卻應許生活有力，行路有光；作工得息，試煉得恩助。危難有賴，無限的體諒，不死的 愛。」
申命記三十三25：「你的日子如何，你的力量也必如何」
耶穌曾說：「不要為明天憂慮，因為明天自有明天的憂慮，一天的難處一天當就夠了。」
詩篇六十八19「天天背負我們重擔的主，就是拯救我們的神，是應 當稱頌的」。

Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: 'Rulers and elders of the people! If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a cripple and are asked how he was healed, then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. He is the stone you builders rejected, which has become the capstone. Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.' Acts 4:8-12 NIV

"Creative Competition Part V---But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord, Jesus Christ." - II Corinthians 15:57"
「在愛裡沒有懼怕！」
若是說仍有懼怕，那就顯得愛並不完全；許多懼怕其實又是自找的，若說，神會照看一切，那麼在行走坐臥之際，還有什麼需要去怕的？更何況，未發生之事的懼怕，往往沒有人可以幫得了。
每個人各自已經有其軟弱之處，各自有其需要自我承擔的部分，只能先自行承擔，做到自我俱足之境，將豐盛分享給他人，而不是將擔憂交給另一個同是軟弱的人。
交出去，說得容易，做又是另一回事。開朗樂觀，也是形容得如意，在生活中實踐，又談何容易。
「劃界線」聽起來似乎不近人情，卻是一個基準，能使大家都蒙福的觀念與作法。當大火漫燒整個樹林之際，如果不先燒、砍掉一些樹，使其成為一條防火巷，這整片樹林將全面遭殃。
許多人的生命面臨到全面性潰敗，就因為不懂劃清界限，習慣性地要扮演他人的情緒承擔者，要去搶奪他人各自該承擔的責任，於是，自己也扛不動，他人也不自覺需要有什麼分擔。
各安其份、各盡其職，才是愛的根本，否則，缺乏人我之份際時，愛之將適足以害之。
