I embraces the belief that we are spiritual beings simple having a human experience. Ninety-nine percent of what you are is spiritual, your personality, your creativity, your god like nature. About one percent is your physical make up, the dust of the ground that became the temple that holds your spirit and soul. So you’re about one percent physical, and about ninety-nine percent spiritual. Yet the paradox of life is we spend ninety-nine percent of our time taking care of, worrying about and being a slave in many ways to the one percent that is flesh and blood. By contrast we spend about one percent of our time nourishing and biulding that ninety-nine percent of up that is truly who we are, our spirituality. We diet to lose weight, when the real fat is lodge between our ears I fear. We run for miles and exercise for hours to get a body in shape that too many times has an empty interior.
When people die we hear about their humanity, which never refers to their human bodies. We never hear at a eulogy. Here lays sweet Sara, wow she had a hot body. We all going to miss her wonderful legs, and how great she looks in a bikini at the beach. That would be humorless, and not what is spoken at such solemn occasion, what we do hear about is sweet Sara’s sweetness, her humanity, the ninety-nine percent of her that make her someone who was loved.
Have you worked on your humanity lately? I hope you will digest these thoughts and to decide to.
This book acronym Faith is all about that. It is about working on out self, who we are. We must learn to work on the INSIDE OUT, INSTEAD OF THE OUT SIDE IN.
The I and the IT of faith, and the I and the IF of life.
For many reason I think the word “FAITH” in one of the most import if not the single most important word in the human experience. I have looked at that word faith endless at times. This book should be proof to any observer that I have devoured that word in as many was as I could conceive. Yet I think the most profound thing about this word FAITH is at the middle of it is the letter I. See faith my friend is all about the I, and what do I do with Faith. What will I do with these endless faith acronyms? People say it is all about me, well one thing is sure, FAITH is truly all about the I. Also at the same time I see there is a word in the middles of FAITH, it is the world ‘it’ See faith is about what “I” do with “IT”. Very simple, yet it is so tremendously profound.
As I look that Faith is all about what I do with it, in my life. It hit him again when I looked at the word LIFE. Again the letter “I” is in the middle of the word “LIFE, and a word, the word is “if” is in the center of “LIFE”
I want to challenge you to embrace the I, the IT, and the I and the IF of FAITH and LIFE.
