VISION (Re-Post)

"Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil".

- James Allen

"We lift ourselves by our thought. We climb upon our vision of ourselves. If you want to enlarge your life, you must first enlarge your thought of it and of yourself. Hold the ideal of yourself as you long to be, always everywhere -- your ideal of what you long attain -- the ideal of health, efficiency, success".

- Orison Swett Marden


"Vision: the art of seeing things invisible". - Jonathan Swift

Where there is no vision, the people perish.
(Proverbs 29:18 - KJV)

Excellent, LOVE the biblical crossfererences to this way of thinking, Ask and it is given, As a man thinketh in his heart...

God sent His Son into the world so that the world might have VISION.

...recovery of SIGHT.

Let there be LIGHT...let there be vision...and it was so.

Lord, open our eyes that we may SEE what has always been there and those giftings that are buried within us, may they be unearthed, cultivated with excellence and bring forth much fruit for the betterment of humanity. Even in those uncertain times, help us to SEE your Goodness, Mercy, and Grace surrounding us so that THANKSGIVING to the utmost and the Spirit of Praise may arise within us where even when we grow tired, THE VISION will pull us towards your destiny and purpose for our lives as we are delivered and transitioned from glory to glory everlasting, from weakness in ourselves to Your Supernatural Strength, and from faith to your Ever Increasing Faith that empowers us, keeps the sparks burning, that will give us greater Hope and New Expectancy of the best that is yet to come.... Selah...Amen.

I got this as an email tag, thought I'd share ~

Do more than belong; participate.
Do more than care; help.
Do more than believe; practice.
Do more than be fair; be kind.
Do more than forgive; forget.
Do more than dream; work.

William Arthur Ward

Peace,

Hello Bishop,

Happy Thanksgiving!

On the subject of vision I wanted to let you know about a new worship blog I've got up that I hope will help the choir especially, but also anyone who wants to visit it. It's called WORSHIP NOW and you can reach it at: www.worshipinthenow.blogspot.com

One thought is to post songs that have recently been sung at the services and finding possible videos to them, and hopefully pictures of worshipers. I'll be looking for suggestions and ideas from the choir and band,too.

Let me know what you think sometime.

Again, have a great Thanksgiving celebration with your family. God's blessings!

Love,
Karl
