Thankful Heart

The World

Overcoming


Eclipse Plumeria

 
"So to attain peace quickly in your surroundings, as well as in your hearts, learn your lesson quickly. And the overcoming is never the overcoming of the one who troubled you, but the overcoming of the weaknesses and wrong in your own nature, aroused by such a one."




Meaning to me: When wrongs are made against you, learn from that event quickly. Overcome the experience, learn about yourself and why this might have happened, not so much about the one who wronged you.

After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying:
 Fear not, Abram; I am thy shield and thy exceeding great reward. - Genesis 15:1

Every work, every interruption -- set yourself to see that none of it touches the harmony of the real you, that is hid with Me in the Secret Place of the Father."

Miracles

Waltzing Matilda Plumeria


"Remember that to Me a miracle is only a natural happening. To My disciples, to My chosen, a miracle is only a natural happening.

Meaning to me: Miracles are not something to marvel at if you believe in God who performs miracles daily.

I will set you on high because you have known My Name, but it must be a purified you to be so exalted." 


Meaning to me: Be yourself ... be what God wants you to be.

Step Firmly



Rainbow Alii Plumeria

Never Doubt

Mary Ellen Eggenberger Plumeria

"Joy in Me. Joy is infectious. Trust and pray. It is not sin for one who knows Me only as God, as Creator, to doubt Me, to question my Love and purposes. But for one who knows Me as you do, as Friend and Savior, and who knows the world's God as Father -- for that one to doubt My purpose and saving Power and tender Love is wrong indeed."

Tender Preparation

"Painful as this time is you will both one day see the reason of it, and see too that it was not cruel testing, but tender preparation for the wonderful life-work you are both to do.

Great success, in both temporal and spiritual worlds, awaits you."

Ask

J04 Plumeria


"Never let yourselves think "we cannot afford this," or "shall never be able to do that."  Say "the supply for it is not here yet, but it will come if we should have it.  It will surely come."

Meaning to me: Ask and you shall receive if you believe in God and have him in your life everyday - not just when you need Him.

Always Friends

Hot Magenta Plumeria

 

"What man calls conversion is often only the discovery of the Great Friend.  What man calls religion is the knowledge of the Great Friend.  What man calls holiness is the imitation of the Great Friend. I  am your Friend.  Think again of all that means -- Friend and Savior.  A friend is ready to help, anticipating every want, hand outstretched to help and encourage, or to ward off danger, voice of tenderness to soothe tired nerves and speak peace to restlessness and fear."
