Practical Spirituality-The Third Force
In our previous two articles on the Four Forces we talked about interactions on the horizontal plain, or axis. We talked about centripetal force pulling one inward, into the inner world. We also talked about centrifugal force pulling one outward to the external world and social interactions. When one was successfully alternating between each of these forces one would be moving on the horizontal axis in a figure eight. One would loop from the inside to the outside several times passing through the center, the place of balance. Healthy need would draw one outside of oneself. Healthy fear would draw one back inside the self. One would move back and forth on this horizontal plane, the physical plane of existence, until one experienced another feeling knows as guilt.
Having Done All To Stand – Your Are Stronger Than You Think! – Being An OvercomerThere are people that are paying a great price every day to worship God the way they choose. We should not take our freedom to worship lightly in the United States. More so, we should take advantage of this freedom.
He speaks to us in a whisper. Acknowledging the game of life helps us to understand how to win. Knowing the Spiritual dimension of our world is to have knowledge, while living in this world like everyone else is to be simple minded.
God Is Not Mad At You – He Is On Your Side – His Mercy Is EverlastingGod makes his mercy available to men through covenants. Man must come to God based on a covenant agreement in order to receive mercy. Notice Deuteronomy 7:9-11, “Know therefore that the Lord thy God, He is God, the faithful God which keepth covenant and mercy with them that love Him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations and repayeth them that hate him to there face to destory them, he will repay and not be slack to him that hateth Him. God would much rather shed His mercy on people than His wrath according to James 2:13, “Mercy rejoiceth against judgment.”
Spirituality and SymbolsIt appears that every belief has symbols attached to it and it seems the human mind likes to use symbols, almost as Nations like to use Flags, animals and symbols to describe their domain; for instance a National Bird or a National Flag is very common. In religion and spirituality symbols are also used quite a bit.

A brief description of what it is like to be living in a world of infinite possibilities.
What Faith Is And How It Is To Be Used – Great Rewards Are To ComeBy faith we stand against evil both inwardly and outwardly. We stand inwardly against personal sin. We stand outwardly in opposition against the evil of this world. However, we must stand in all meekness and gentleness of Christ and not with a condemning attitude.
The Prayer of Pure Instinct – HELP!Now I know for myself, I am secretly wishing for help more often then I care to admit. There is no kind of help that is harder for the Divine to deliver then any other. If you pray for help when your child is sick it’s on the way. If you pray for help when your computer freezes up it’s on the way. If you pray for help when your car breaks down on the freeway it’s on the way. If you pray for help finding a parking spot at the mall, you guessed it, it’s on the way!
Faith Can Be Seen – Your Life Does Not Go Un-Noticed!Faith brings God glory, it testifies, it reveals His grace to those who behold the endurance of others that have entered into Christ’s sufferings. In reality, man has two choices. He can enter in to temptations or he can enter into faith which brings Christ’s sufferings. Both are a willful act.
More Please!Most of us find it easy to pray when things are in the rough. However, often times when things are going really well, our prayer practice suffers. Part of this is because we haven’t established a strong enough connection with the Divine to make it a part of our daily routine. Part of it is because subconsciously we are programmed not to ask for too much. However, the universe is an expansive place. The Divine loves to give and wants to have as many opportunities to shower us with blessings as are imaginable. Let me tell you, Divine, given the chance, can imagine ways to please us that we can’t!
