Spiritual Growth Love

For anyone who has ever struggled with their identity, Landra Young Hughes has a radically simple message: give up. Specifically, give up your need to be in control of how other people see you. Instead, let God's words - not yours and not others' - define you. Through her own deeply personal story of trying to control her circumstances and others' perceptions of her through an eating disorder, Landra points the way toward a life free from self-obsession and self-resentment.

Alcanzar el conocimiento de lo que somos es reconocer que somos una unidad indivisa con Dios, en Cristo. La reunión de nuestra naturaleza humana con la divina, o mejor dicho el hacernos conscientes de ello, es aceptarnos tal como somos en verdad. Somos una nueva humanidad. Un nuevo ser en el que se reúne lo humano, lo crístico y lo divino en una sola realidad santa. Vivir en armonía con esta verdad nos permite vivir en paz con nosotros mismos, y por ende con los demás y el mundo entero. Somos Cristo humanado.

The prophet Joel compared the explosion of God’s endtime Church with the sound of galloping horses. 4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. 5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array. Joel 2:4–5

Somewhere along the way, there develops within the soul a yearning that can no longer be ignored—a craving for the great Love affair. We feel it drawing ever closer. It is the greatest of them all. It cannot fail. It is all-consuming. It is incomparable. It is the love affair with our own true nature and the source from which it comes. The desire is in all of us, but it is mainly ignored for other interests. We wrestle with each interest, trying to make it work, growing with each adventure until the light has grown bright enough for us to reach for it.

Multiplied millions of lives have been changed because this one Man dared to obey God and walk the Love Walk.

Love. It's that thing everyone talks about but very few will ever truly put into action. It's the fuel with which we are called to live, and it's the very reason Jesus' body was brutally broken upon that splintered cross. It's unbeatable, unrestricted, and hands down the greatest attribute of God. It will transform the way you see life, and it will radically invade the way you see others. The question is, have you discovered and harnessed it the way God intended?
