It is one of the major elements of the Kingdom. <BR/>Thanks!

I needed to hear this today. <BR/><BR/>It is so easy, even as I vision for the future or make plans and goals, to be driven by the anticipation of the fulfillment of my own ideals. Yes, we have to breath to help others breathe. We have to be fully alive and empowered to empower others but maybe its more of a cyclical process then an order. We breathe in God, we help others breathe, and then those we serve help us breathe in God some more .......Christiana Ricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04069657100336881630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7557136.post-2748306898117237802009-01-29T10:41:00.000-08:002009-01-29T10:41:00.000-08:00Great post Rob.

I wonder if the whole idea of self nurture hasn't been inflated BECAUSE of the continuous messages of "having a good self esteem" that we are fed in our culture. I think it can be hard for people to actually believe it isn't all about us because that is what we have been told for SO long. Perhaps the difference between pursuits that are "life giving" and "life hoarding" comes down to momentum... what keeps the athlete moving are foods and habits that create forward energy and movement NOT things that make them fat (even if they love them).Tim McDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08633374573451622904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7557136.post-67529705571690425632009-01-29T10:29:00.000-08:002009-01-29T10:29:00.000-08:00Hey Rob,I just love this little essay.

I think that Americans or perhaps Westerners in general have difficulty with this one. Then again, I think it is the human predicament to believe "it's all about me."Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18405175210758514035noreply@blogger.com
