Living in God's world

Acts 2:42
  • God expects us as believers to practice some exercises – excercises that happen to train believers.
  • We have communion to remember what God has done for us.
  • Why read the Bible? To know God. If you are going to help someone at work, if you make friends, are married you need to get to know them.
  • Don't do what Man wants, do what God wants. Reading Bible is not to gain knowledge about God, but to know God - relationship. Abraham was a friend of God. This is what we want to be.
  • Learn about God and learn about fellowship. Fellowship- get to know each other's heart. The things that tick you off and the things that don't.
  • Breaking of Bread - to remember what God has done for us. Prayer - (like the walkie talkie). How you live your life and how you talk with God. Everything you say goes up to God. He hears it all.

What is this verse describing?

Objectivity – Changing Habits

The nature of the entrepreneur will put you in unprecedented situations constantly Past experiences; - most of the decisions we make on a daily basis are based upon our previous experiences. The reactive observation, “That looks off - I was hurt once - don’t touch it.” This is really a rather simplistic decision to a situation. The idea of understanding, evaluating and deciding our decision making process, is quite possibly one of the most effective, yet difficult things to do. We are always being confronted with decisions, both big and small. These decisions usually carry with them some sort of emotional process that is important to us as individuals and are like an emotional compass that helps our decision process. We need to cultivate a discipline for making good decisions that seem contrary to our emotions or our initial thoughts based on past experience and feelings. Sometimes though, I find myself so far out of my comfort zone that I don’t know what to do and with no prior experi...

We remember those who fought for our freedom

Australian troops at Milne Bay World War 2 - Papuan campaign We remember those who fought for our freedom Australian forces defeated the Japanese attempt to capture the strategic Milne Bay area in August 1942. During the Battle of Milne Bay two brigades of Australian troops, designated Milne Force, supported by two RAAF fighter squadrons and US Army engineers defeated a smaller Japanese invasion force made up of Japanese Special Naval Landing Forces units. This was the first notable Japanese land defeat and raised Allied morale across the Pacific Theatre.

BELIEFS

If we want to understand what we believe we need only to look at what we are involved in. I know that amongst successful business people they talk about things like leadership, innovation, persistence and longevity. I know that all of these are important and I feel and speak passionately about these things often. How ever to achieve in any of these areas it is our beliefs that will set our values and our character will be the example of theses. We all believe something – what we believe is important to success. Belief is not a gift – it is learned from others – it is something we can teach others. We can give someone a dollar, but it soon will be spent and be in the pocket of another. Teach someone something valuable they can believe and they set a value they can use to reproduce that dollar. We can give presents, compliments, advice and embrace one another in moments of despair. But to teach another a right belief is a commodity for which time passed, or circumstance can never take aw...
