Happiness Or Wholeness? Some Things To Consider

Dec4

Have you ever felt confused (emotionally) about happiness? Why don’t you experience it more often? How come it plays ‘hide n seek’ with you? Why does it seem so far away when you most need some?

I would like to express some thoughts with you about HAPPINESS – WHOLENESS and BALANCE. Seems everyone is after Happiness almost to the expense of experiencing  other emotions and being OK with them.  It kind of throws things out of balance and makes you feel off pretty quickly when you experience other emotions – the unpleasant ones tend to stay around longer (you get stuck) and you find it difficult to shift Modes.

Looking Outside Our Square

Feb23

You have heard the saying “Thinking outside the Square?”

hang-ups, bondage and self.

We tend to look inward a lot in our Christian lives often.

The following website helps us to think outside

our little square in a positive way.

Many Christians are lacking in JOY because they don’t think

outside of themselves. Most sermons are centered on us

in some way, so they are partly responsible for that.
