The soul is the sacred place of our deepest emotions, and can benefit greatly from the gifts of a vivid spiritual life, and suffer when it is deprived of them. Whether we are building a business, a network, or friendships, we always want to look for people who are genuine. After all, nobody wants to work or hang out with a pseudo personality, which lacks depth, character, and charisma. Genuine means actually being what seems or claims to be; real. Sincere; frank. There are people alive who iron everything from their underwear, undershirts and socks to their jeans, pants, shirts, towels and sheets because that is genuine for them. Some even still scrub the floors by hand. If you do not do those kinds of things, but tell someone you do, that is being fake. In a World full of kitsch popular culture, top 40 music, fake news, internet stars, psychology which promotes self-discovery through suppression, and television shows that program people how to think, talk, and act it is becoming more and more rare all the time to meet people who are genuine. Do you still know any genuine people? It is doubtful. In a large-scale series of experiments, Dr. Abraham Maslow attempted to find something resembling genuine personalities, which resulted in Earth shattering conclusions. Of more than 5,000 tested persons, fewer than 10 were classified as perfect personalities. #RandolphHarris 1 of 9
Genuine people are fewer than one percent of everyone. The ultimate reward makes any amount of human pleasure pale in comparison and seem worthless. The king’s mistress has only one wish, namely to be allowed to remain under the throne. To achieve this, she will turn her life into one entire fake, if need be. The primal fear is to be replaced. Basic research is the most important things of all, but when you open the newspaper or turn on the news, much of what you get is fake news or reports that were already published 40 years ago. The government has already taken noticed that third-party funded research seems to be taking over. Some special interest group outside the University, laboratory, or government agency is providing financing in return for getting something useful out of a project. In other words, he or she is offering the scientist wage labor to reformulate a problem and make it sound like a title of dissertation, even though the research may be false, harmful, or dangerous. In the past, God was present in so many people’s hearts that wherever we were, the Lord shone a bit and was perceivable. The critical mass of the faithful for this highest omnipresence has since fallen short, such that the World today seems to have abandoned belief in God. It is the hour of the prophets that predict the end of the World without God. The genuine, like real research, must return to the World. #RandolphHarris 2 of 9
The enemy is waiting to destroy us, but our job is to stay close to the Lord and to let God direct our path and direction. We must keep our eyes on God, and watch the Lord’s evolution of Love overflow in and through us. We are to be blessed in the name of the Lord. It is important not to let anything separate us from the Love of God, not death, principality, wickedness, envy, strife, nothing. God promised us that he will give us rest. He gives peace that surpasses all understanding. Once our minds are stayed on God, then we will know out thoughts and mental capacity for the Lord’s strength in our lives. May God grant us the things that he has solemnly placed before us and may the Lord give us perfect peace in the times of a storm. Allow God to come in and put grace in our lives. We must understand that grace does not give us an excuse to sin. God will grant rest to us because it will teach us to say no to ungodly activities and Worldly desires. The Holy Spirit will give us the power so to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling. It will also allow us to rest in the grace of God. As Christians, we should expose sin for what it is worth. Sin should not overpower us when we are in a struggle with it. We must learn to pray and seek the rest of God. There is hope for everyone who seeks freedom from sin. God can see inside of us. He knows our thoughts and can discern what we are planning to do. #RandolphHarris 3 of 9
There is a strange parallelism between matter and the One, because both are entirely indeterminate. Therefore, they both elude ordinary concepts, and we face the questions what it means to know them. As far as matter is concerned, it is sometimes likened to darkness, and the mental act by which we grasp it to unthinking thinking, or the soul’s reduction to indefiniteness. In order to know the One (whatever knowledge means here), the soul mist itself become one; there has to be some kind of suprarational insight. In which there is some kind of infallible knowledge of certain objects that are a kind of touching (thinganein). The soul can accomplish only by becoming as simple or as alone as the One. In the moment of such a union the soul has become God, or, rather, is God; the soul has reascended to it original source. It is not expressible in words, only one who has experienced it knows what it means to be ravished away by God. For this reason, we prepare ourselves by the acquisition of all the perfections (virtues, aretai). However, each of these perfections acquires different meanings, according to the level on which human being’s spiritual life takes place—thus, there is a social fairness, above it another kind of fairness, and so on. Human also prepare themselves by the exercise of dialectics. The preliminary stages of achievement is called becoming Godlike, which is the ultimate goal. What could be more fantastic than this? #RandolphHarris 4 of 9
God knows the desires of our hearts. We must hear what the Lord has to say; open our ears, eyes, mind, and heart to the Lord’s righteousness. If we hold fast to the promise, to the belief, and to the will of God, the Lord will direct our paths and make our narrow way straight and the light of the World brighter for us to see. There are circumstances and situations that may seem dim, but we must put on the whole armor of God and be guided by the Lord’s promise and thought process. We must seek the Lord first in all we do; acknowledge God’s ways, and let the Lord lead and guide us into the path of righteousness. There are situation and circumstances that may not seem right, but we cannot allow ourselves to get depressed about it. We must learn to depend on the Lord for the right things to say and do. Some situations may seem bleak in the human mind, but if we wait on the Lord, God shall carry us through. No situation is too hard for God. God wants to come and see about us, but we must hold on, keep the faith, and know that God will make everything alright. Nothing, absolutely nothing, is too hard for Go. Find our resting place in the heart of God’s heart, and knowing that he will never forsake us is the greatest blessing we could ask for. Manifesting is more practical than most of us thing. When we believe something will happen, and we align our energy toward that thing happening, it does. That is why we focus on God so much, so we can manifest him in our lives. #RandolphHarris 5 of 9
People who accomplish great goals are fierce. They set their sights on something and move toward it, no matter what. They fall, they get back up. They keep moving forward, and this mentality is important if we want to make changes in life. When we are committed to our own evolution, it is going to happen. Some people try to force themselves into relationship with people they want, but the best thing is to change yourself into the type of person who attracts the type of mate you want. One of the core concepts of manifesting is we have to feel what we want to create before it arrives. The purpose of a relationship is not to make ourselves complete. This mentality will only lead to dependence and disappointment. The purpose of a relationship is to share our life with another person, to learn about ourselves and others, and to grow even more than we could on our own. This will only happen in a satisfying way if we feel whole and happy before our partner arrives. Ideally, the only entity we should be dependent on is God. We have to love ourselves also. Self-love is simply feeling to the essence of love that lives within us. It is a resource that is in us all, just waiting to be accessed. By feeling more self-love, we connect to the most potent attractive force there is: love of God from the inside out. We have to claim our truth, feel the love, and believe we can create whatever we want, and we will be able to manifest the life and love we really wants. #RandolphHarris 6 of 9
In this way we are manifesting the love of God toward us. God is love. If we want to know anything about love, we must realize this truth because it is in this way that God has manifested his wonderous love to us. Let us look at the love of God and attempt to measure it by looking at ourselves. We will never know the Lord of God until we know ourselves. We will never appreciate the love of God until we know the startling truth about ourselves. Our love must be true, we must always turn in horror from what is wrong. We have to keep on holding to what is right and be affectionate to one another, and remain ever happy in faith and hope. “God is the embodiment of love. Love is the very essence of his being,” reports 1 John 4.8. We are children of Almighty God, created to grow, move forward, increase, and constantly break the barriers of the past and advance God’s Kingdom. “God created love. Love is a divine attribute, or characteristic, of God. The essence of God’s nature, is love. Love is more than a feeling. The love of God is a way of being,” reports 1 John 4.7. What does it mean to you that God has made you uncontainable? What seeds of greatness are waiting to take root and flourish in your life? God will take us placed we have never dreamed of. The Lord will bring opportunities that give us amazing influence. The love of God is unconditional. The Lord has invited every human being, no matter how much he or she has sinned, to enter into a loving relationship with him by simply believe in the Savior. #RandolphHarris 7 of 9
What God has destined for our lives will come to fulfillment. God is going to increase our influence. We must rid ourselves of that limited mentality that we once used to possess and press forward in faith. God will make us break barriers. God is about to thrust us into new levels of our destiny. The love of God reproduces itself through every human beings who is a born-again believer. The life and love of God is manifested in our lives through enabling of his Holy Spirit who becomes a resident in our hearts the moment we first believe. Every active member of the Church knows a lost sheep who needs the attention and love of a caring shepherd. There are so many young and old people who wander aimlessly and walk the tragic trail of drugs, gangs, and immortality, and the whole brood of ills that accompany these things. There are widows who long for friendly voices and that spirit of anxious concern which speaks of love. There are those who were once warm in that faith, but whose faith has grown cold. Many of them wish they could come back, but do not know quite how to do it. They need friendly hands reaching out to them. With a little effort, many of them can be brought back to feast again at the table of the Lord. We all need to remain active in the Church, have a friend, responsibility, and accept continued nourishing by the good word of God. The lost sheep need the exact same care and concern to help them back to the fold. #RandolphHarris 8 of 9
The challenge before us is great. It will require us to exercise increased faith, energy, and commitment if we are going to reach others. However, we must do it. The Lord is counting on us to do it. We must remember that change occurs slowly. We al need to have patience, offer fellowship and friendship, learn to listen and love, and be care not to judge. Power-with is the most life-giving form of power. In intimate relationship, such shared empowerment deepens the partners’ bond, helping to bring forth the very best from each, making it much more possible to change challenging things (like fear and mistrust) openly and vulnerably. Here, the needs of the partners and the needs of their relationship compassionately coexist. Here, power is an ally, with partners solidly behind each other, rooted in mutual trust. Their shared power deepens their love, and their shared love deepens their power. True masculine power is full-blooded power-with—power that strengths both our autonomy and our togetherness, power that aligns our heart, mind, and soul. Such power, whatever its intensity, does not abuse, and protects what needs protecting. It brings our the very best in a person, backing the individual in taking needed stands, without forgetting one’s heart. True masculine power is not ours to prove anything, but simply to support the living of a deeper life, a life of authenticity, care, passion, integrity, love, and wakefulness. #RandolphHarris 9 of 9
