Prayers



Prayers

Quote of the day

‘Prayers should be daily affair, to help make you aware, to help you to compare, to help you not to swear, to give you the strength to take care and to learn to share and remain fair.’

Today actually reflects a typical day in my life that may help shape your life. I follow a stringent set of rules that work and I believe in following basic fundamental rules to help me make my day and my life a successful one. This helps me to be aware, it helps me to compare, it helps me to not swear and it helps me to gain the strength needed to care, share and remain fair. The following rules are rules that I abide by on a daily basis. The results that I get after a long and tedious day is typical of a meritocratic goal setter, one that strives to be successful. I start my day with a prayer for I know well that a prayer is my principal request to Almighty GOD in helping me to stray away from the talons of temptation. I plan menus for the day in advance and eat at regulated times, and I eat moderately and considerately. My working agenda for the day is written well in advance, in a prescription based on my abilities and capabilities. This agenda governs my day and I follow it with the strictness that it deserves. During the day I fill the sandwich of my activities in an altruistic fashion, exercising a humane role and in a pace that is not offensive to anyone else. As a humane being I value my relationship with every other human being that lives on our planet. Therefore, I extend love rather than hate and embrace someone with affection rather than contention. Education is important to me and therefore I need to learn to understand, learn to earn and learn to overcome adversities in my day and in my life. I have a physical body that constitutes my action plan and therefore I need to maintain my body at all times. Based on my desire I need to engage in physical activities throughout the day to enhance my well-being. I must acknowledge that all living organisms are part of the whole scheme of living on planet Earth therefore I must offer a helping hand to those that need it. I must be gentle to the earthworm that veered in the wrong direction or to the elderly that struggle to make ends meet. I must remain vigilant at all times because the converse of prayers is temptation. Temptation lures you to your ultimate demise in an attractive way. I must always remember that what I see in front of me is not necessarily what I want. I need to think ahead, about tomorrow, about the years ahead and about eternity. This helps me create new goals and makes my life more adventurous. Finally, I conclude my day in a prayer consisting solely of gratitude. I offer gratitude with sincerity to Almighty GOD for assisting me in my day and to grant me my request as set out in my early morning prayer. Dear Friends all of the above started with a prayer in the morning and ended solemnly with gratitude in the evening. I feel part of the chemistry of life and I am pleased to say that I am so glad to be employed in a vast employment bureau called The Universe, the faculty of GOD’s workshop. Follow the above rules with passion and desire and see how 2016 will change for the better.

The difference between Appreciation and Thank You



The difference between Appreciation and Thank You

Quote of the day

‘We often confuse the gestures of Thank You and Appreciation to a certain degree. A gesture of Thank You denotes a polite expression of gratitude by a Recipient to a donor. Appreciation on the other is a follow-on. The Recipient takes the gesture of the donor and puts it into practice.’

Dear Friends, of whom you shall always be, it is of extreme importance to show gratitude for everything in life. We may ignore our usual donors right in front of very eyes but actually gratitude is by far the greatest human gesture that can bring joy to the donor at a time when it is so much needed. Life can be hectic in a financially demanding world. Sometimes we forget to say thank you and sometimes we do say thank you. What is actually more effective then saying thank you is to follow on with appreciation. 2015 holds a melodrama of very sad events that toppled the lives of so many. It would be sad to carry these melodramas of turmoil and self-destruction into 2016. What makes a day bitter is not the working mechanism of life but rather the working mechanism of a human mind. Do the birds and the bees get in your way and spoil your day? Does the earthworm wiggle its way into your life? Do flowers give off an unpleasant odour as you walk pass them? Does the rotation of planets create a setback in your life? What actually muddles your day is another human being. Clashing with one titan that has a bad temper can be augmented if your temper is equal or greater. The world goes to war when clashes occur. Therefore, I say onto you and verily too start 2016 by being nice. The simplest nicety in life is gratitude consisting of two simple words called Thank you. As I have always stated in the past we have a fundamental purpose in life and that is to act as sole custodians of the living world. What is the point of being alive to only satisfy our senses, to deal with our tormenting expenses and to be on our constant defences? If this is the moral of living you can see quite openly that it is self-inflicted. You live to eat, you live to get in debt and you live to be in denial. Life is a lot more than this. Life is about examining the philosophy behind it. It is about being kind and serene. It is about caring, sharing and remaining fair. It is about the birds and the bees for without whom we shall be no more. It is about love rather than hate. It is about serving our Heavenly Father altruistically and to move on as Time Travellers from one galaxy to another as loyal servants. Life is about living it to the fullest. Materialistic desires always get you into a fiery furnace. It is good to live your life with what your heart desires but to achieve this you first need to receive it honestly rather than dishonestly. This is why I decided to write today wholeheartedly about two expressions and that is Thank you and Appreciation. There is a contrasting difference between them. Thank You is a common gesture by a recipient to a donor such as courtesy by one individual to another. Allowing someone to get onto a bus before you, allowing someone to pass before you and saying thank you when you are being served are common examples. Appreciation on the other hand is a follow-on. The Recipient takes the gesture of the donor and puts it into practice. Showing by example is to follow by example and this is the ideology behind the word appreciation. If you made breakfast for someone you may get a Thank You but what is more effective is when they clear their dishes from the table and wash them or place them into the sink to be washed later on. Saying thank you is not enough we need to follow on with genuine appreciation. When you offer gratitude to our Heavenly Father at night follow on with appreciation by illustrating that you will do your very best to make tomorrow a better day. Offer thanks by all means but learn to follow on with constant appreciation.

Prayer



Prayer

Quote of the day

‘Starting your day in Prayer will guide you for the rest of your day, over the hurdles of inhibitions that awaits you, down the corridors of confusion that makes you hesitate and through the matrix of stress related symptoms that dampens your spirits.’

Dear Friends, welcome to the start of a new working week. I wish you a success, joy and happiness from the bottom of my heart. With a plan of action and a sense of passion you can become accomplished and fulfilled at the end of each working work. To achieve success at the end of each working week creates an enormous triumph that can be felt within you. I know this feeling because I feel it at the end of each working week. It is a feeling that generates a desire to spend your weekends with the fondness of being alive and well. This is the concord of life whereupon each individual seeks to serve and to serve professionally, assertively, sincerely, spiritually, incessantly, optimistically and naturally. I call this the PASSION effect. To initiate such warmth in the approach to your day I always urge my readers to start their day in prayer. Starting your day in prayer generate passion in your life. With passion you have the power, the energy and the dynamics to achieve your goals. Without starting your day in Prayer, there is a good chance that your day will be ruined. There is a good chance that you will feel unwell, confused, stressed and muddled over what to do. Sadly there is good and bad in the open fields of society and this is something you should not doubt. There is good and bad in continents across the globe and in the divisions within each continent. There is good and bad in each city, across the demarcations of class, industry and retail. There is good and bad in our streets, in every alley and in the quietest cul-de-sacs. There is good and bad in each dwellings from the biggest mansions to the shacks that spring up as a result of unfairness. There is good and bad in every human being including you and me. To experience the wonders of life I say onto you and verily too, start your day in Prayer. Starting your day in prayer in the solitude of you home creates the warmth and glow in your heart to succeed in your new day ahead of you. There is good and bad in the world, and there will always be. There is good and bad in us and therefore I urge you to pray each day. Praying makes you humble. Humbleness creates friends and reduces enemies. A prayer a day certainly keeps the evildoer away. You made your request now let the angels follow you and guide you to a better day. I wish you a better day today. If you are ready to leave home, go back and pray right way. Fill your heart with devotion and sincerity. Fill your memo with scheduled tasks and stick to this throughout your day. Believe in the PASSION effect. Be Professional in all that you do. Be Assertive when performing your tasks. Be Sincere to your fellow human being. Be Spiritual in your heart and start your day sincerely with a prayer. Be Incessant in your performance and let your output be a continuous flow of positivity. Be Optimistic about your life and about your goals and how you shall reach 100 years in the warmest of feelings. Have the Natural flair and flare in you and let our Heavenly Father be proud of your daily contributions to humanity.

A Prayer for today and tomorrow


A Prayer for today and tomorrow

Quote of the day

‘A Prayer is not a daily ritual to make an appeal or request but rather a communion between you and our Heavenly Father.’

Dear FATHER, thank YOU for this wonderful day and for allowing me to share it with YOU. Thank YOU for giving me the opportunity to serve YOU in the best possible way. When I leave home today I cannot ask YOU to forgive me for the wrongs that I have done for I know already that YOU have forgiven me, all I can say is that I am very sorry indeed. I cannot ask YOU for guidance because YOU have always guided me from birth, I thank YOU for this. I cannot ask YOU to protect me because YOU have always protected me from my difficulties and my adversaries, for this I am eternally grateful. I am grateful for the wisdom that YOU have given me to live an abundant life, filled with constant joy and happiness. I am grateful for a second chance and will always use my wisdom to help my fellow human beings that maybe struggling to cope. Thank you for showing me how to be tolerant.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls a Prayer is a special communion between you and Almighty GOD. Therefore I urge you to strengthen your relationship with our Heavenly Father and to utter your prayer to HIM each day. Your prayer should never be a daily ritual to make an appeal or request but rather a communion between you and Him. Always start each day with a prayer and more importantly end it with sincere gratitude. Prayers are not meant to be solemn. Prayers are meant to be a joy and a privilege to speak in private to our Heavenly Father. Some of you may not agree with the concept of praying but I can assure you it is the most important facet of your day. A Prayer softens your mood, a prayer builds up your courage, a prayer alleviates your pain and a prayer strengthens your day. Leaving home without a prayer is like leaving home without an agenda. I enjoy praying at the break of dawn for my mood, courage, pain and my day is guaranteed to be better. My article today is personal. It is about Praying and it is about the way I pray. Every individual is different but ultimately we seek the same and that is to have a safe and humble day.

Love GOD


‘Love GOD’

Quote of the day
‘Do you love GOD as much as GOD loves you? Do you start your day with a prayer and end it with gratitude? Do you believe in GOD?’

We often confuse Science with GOD. Some believe in Science and others do not believe in GOD. Science has shifted our level of thinking away from Theology and today we depend purely on Technology. We have become blinded with knowledge and deafened with logic over the last 100 years. Dear Friends, I want to tell you that confusion will always lead to delusion and occlusion. You cannot start your day knowing that you are here to serve man rather than GOD, already you have taken a vital chunk out of your success equation. Success is about living. Living is about serving. We cannot serve GOD and serve Man at the same time. In other words we cannot serve two Masters. Man is equal from down under to above the equator. For those of you who read The Modern Day Trilogy you will know already that GOD does exist. Today’s article is not about proving whether GOD does exist or not. Today’s article is about loving Almighty GOD as much as He loves you. It is about reminding you to start your day in prayer and end it solemnly in gratitude. It is about believing in you and in Almighty GOD. It is about thinking about your life and the purpose of it. It is about exercising your role on Earth altruistically. I say onto you and verily too Love thy Heavenly Father with all your heart and with all your strength. Love is vibrant and divine energy that links the heavens above to us below. Love is about adoration for our Heavenly Father for giving us wealth in knowledge and health in fortification. Exercise your love sincerely and you shall inherit the Earth. Demonstrate your love for Almighty GOD and you shall become a prince or a princess. Don’t remove a chunk from the equation to your success, just eliminate doubt whenever you allow it to enter your life. Doubt breaks homes, towns, countries and continents. Doubt makes you hesitate, suspicious and sceptical.

‘Appreciation is your foundation to a better life’

Quote of the day

‘Appreciation is the summation of our gratefulness for the good things that we have in life. It is the celebration of life through enjoyment of it and through the happiness we gain by it.’

Appreciation is the foundation to your very own success. Appreciation is an expression illustrated by body language or through chosen words that reflects a person’s thankfulness, gratitude and gratefulness. Appreciation is simple and can be expressed simply as Thank YOU. Thank you to our Heavenly Father that has given us an opportunity to live on our planet to do good and to be good. Thank you for the billions of creatures that work laboriously each day and every day changing matter from one source to another so that we can live in abundance. Thank you to you for making me your friend. Thank you for all your appreciation for my tweets and for purchasing my books. Thank you for encouraging me to become a writer of inspirational content. Thank you to Mum for her immense sacrifice and thank you to your Mums for their immense sacrifice. Appreciation is an application that needs to be used every single day in our lives. Appreciation is not a complication but rather a celebration of thankfulness. Appreciation is a fascination for it shows admiration and positive reception. Appreciation is a vindication because we get better when we show appreciation. Appreciation is like respiration. We respire because we need to live therefore we need to be inspired each day to appreciate. Appreciation does not require preparation but it would be nice to show a good presentation. Do not appreciate with bitterness written across your heart, this makes your obligation insincere. Appreciation is an occupation, a conversation and an observation. By occupation we need to learn to appreciate and to appreciate to learn. Appreciation is a conversation because you must utter your gratitude so that it could be understood. Appreciation is an observation because what you give is what you get. Appreciation is a divination because it is something that you act well in advance before saying those two simple words – Thank you.  Appreciation is the summation of our gratefulness for the good things that we have in life. It is the celebration of life through enjoyment of it and through the happiness we gain by it.
