Highlights: Spiritual Principle - FOCUS
In my pursuit to start "giving" through this blog, today begins a series of highlights. These are reviews of some of my favorite posts in the Spirituality Blog thus far -- Words from God to help our spiritual condition.
First, we review a spiritual principle. The spiritual principle that guides this blog and must guide your life: FOCUS
I dedicate this highlight to a kind person who emailed me recently "Alex".
One of the ways that Evil penetrates our minds, hearts, nerves, emotions is through distraction -- preoccupation with earthly events. While, we must all tend to daily needs for staying alive, clothed, fed, housed and living freely, Jesus' example and teaching is that there is a higher place of security that covers all those needs and more ( Matthew 6:19-34). He shows that if we, during break time from God-given responsibilities of work and family, will preoccupy ourselves with training our inner-spirit, God who owns the spirit-realm will cause the other things to fall into place.
Earthly events include wars, rumours of war, disasters, famines, disease, poverties etc.. Jesus warned (and He knows everything) that as the age of earth's end as we now know it approaches, people would have their hearts failing them for fear of the "things they see" ( Luke 21:25-27)! If your occupation is managing people or situations through such problems, then that is your job. However, to inundate the mind with thoughts about such things instead of focusing our minds in the realm where there is power to change ALL things will break you down! The result is that fear, depression, bitterness, cynicism, hatred and even suicide compete to enter the human heart.
I am sharing with you Christ's revelation to me on focus. In obedience to His truth about focus, my conversations through this Spirituality Blog will not entertain talk about world events, the news, politics etc.
This blog is meant to be a sanctuary in your day, a special time when you and I can meet and have the most valuable thing we possess lifted into power -- the human spirit.
May God's divine help abound upon me ... and you ... for the task:

Truth Seekers Statement of Faith
by Min. D. A. Wynne
I BELIEVE IN SATAN, SIN, HELL and ETERNAL DAMNATION.
I believe "every" person is eternally damned to hell/sheol through birth into an earth where the contamination of Sin and Death is in the very air that we breathe! Satan is a created angel that "turned rebel" and Devil. Satan is opposing the authority and lifestyle of God though human cooperation and none of us can be saved by doing individual good deeds or organized works.
This truth reveals the source of all the Evil actions happening around us or to us at the moment you are reading this Spirituality Blog. It is the reason we come here for a sanctuary and re-fueling. We are re-fueled to continue throughout the day overcoming the powers and strategies of Satan in everyday affairs. Through Jesus Christ, we shall overcome and lie down in peace to begin another powerful day!
