What is it inside of us that enables us to do things that we perhaps never thought possible?
We have all our bodily organs including the brain that keeps us alive. Our brain being the body's computer, controlling all our physical movements. However, Jesus was once to have said that "the Spirit is willing but the body is weak". When Catholics make the sign of the cross, they say in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost or Spirit. The Spirit is of a mind of its own and acts on its own. It can make you try when you want to quit, make you strong when you want to cry and it can change your entire life at a moment's notice!
The human body and the Spirit that lies within it are two different entities. God gave Man and Woman "Free Spirit" to enable them to follow the path in life they choose, a path for Good or Evil! Adam and Eve lived in the Garden of Eden until they broke God's Law and ate the "Forbidden Fruit". Free Spirit is like freedom when you live in a community or large city, though you are free there are rules and laws that must be followed and obeyed. The guiding light for the Human Spirit is our Lord Jesus Christ. We can think of ourselves as having two (2) selves, an outer self and an inner self, the Spirit. The outer self must be sustained by food, water, nourishments and learning. The second self is the Human Spirit which is nourished by learning, adventure, creating with innovative ideas and a force of achieving. It could very well be a boring Adventurer that travels and does while the physical self the body sleeps. You can call it a dream but it could be otherwise. When we think of Heaven and Hell, it doesn't necessarily have to be in another world. It could be that God created a parallel Universe or Multi Universes, that the Spirit within us has learned to navigate through. As human beings we hardly ever physically cross the paths of these universes but sometimes you will hear or read about a weird story about someone who has. So within all of us is the spirit that guides our physical, robotic body forward in life.
The Spirit within us is what enables us to have feelings, such as love, hate, jealousy and other emotions. The Spirit also has a thirst for learning and exploring new paths and ideas. The Adventuring Spirit needs guidance at times or it can run amuck.
Jesus Christ, the Son of God is that guidance, if you welcome him into your heart and ask for his help. Life on earth is short in time compared to eternal life. To have life everlasting you must follow God's Commandments and ask our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to forgive us of our sins so that we can have life eternal. The Spirit is given "Free Will" to do good or evil. The world is full of evil and wrongdoings that you must fight against every day. So, on your path, fight that good fight, stay the course that you have chosen and have faith in God that he will help you overcome all the many problems in life that you may face.
The most crucial step is learning how to pray and making time to pray. We'll call it learning the Art of Prayer as it can change everything in your life. Prayer is the language of speaking with God and listening to his guidance. You know that little voice that we hear at times that we often disregard or block out. When you make time in your day to pray, ask God to heal you, your family, all those who suffer with deadly diseases and injuries. Ask God to heal the problems of the heart, fix your job or business problems, intervene in the wrongs of this world and find ways for human beings to fix those wrongs with the help of God Almighty!
Let people that you meet know that change is always within us through The Power of Prayer!
God Bless all the followers of The Power of Prayer Mission of Our Lord Jesus Christ and let God be with you on your path in life wherever you may go, always.
