I am very happy that this weeks blog ended on a very inspired and honored creed by your father. Dr. Robert H. Moreover, the insights of your blog of going through some very difficult and trying times can mold a leader into a better leader. And, by a military comparison people really do feel like they are drowning as they go through their difficult training periods. However, at the end, they do become true defined leaders. And, being tested can bring out the worst and its the very best in a person. Ultimately, to really define and to know thyself during those difficult times. And, with that said, I am not really sure if I agree with standing still for long periods of time. As leaders we must push and move forward to climb over the mountain or its wall...Never Give Up, Never Give Up, Never Give Up! Lastly, in my week long reflection on the possibility thinkers creed during your blogs, I do hope it inspired others. And, will stop back from time to time to listen to the blogs...

Through out this week, I have reflected back to the possibility thinkers creed from Robert H. and compared that creed back to your life's patience blog. And, it is very true that God's will unfold His perfect plans through-out life. Sometimes, God will give opportunity or a even a life boat to overcome difficulty and its adversity situations. Moreover, in military tactics a general will use execution and implementations to improvise, adapt and overcome. Therefore, would God want us to wait until the perfect storm for those strategic implementations or would He rather want us to do nothing until deaths door and then reflect back on what opportunity was missed...With that said, and in my view, that at the end of the day, I do think there is a combination of factors to consider in reviewing life's patience with its strategic executions. To do nothing or to climb over the mountain wall...it is with-in all of us to realize when the life boat sinks by waiting to long and doing nothing.

I will never go to a church that doesn't allow me to wear my baseball hat. I was totally humiliated by Mormons who think the outward appearance and practices including underwear are everything to God. They hinted I was too old (24) to be useful to there church. I didn't look right, nose to long, too little hair and didn't look like an Osmond or Mitt. I now wear a hat even to bed. I watch The Hour of Power as one of my few Church connections. Please do not deny people access to the community of Christ.

A big amen to this devotion.When I am confronted with so much pressure-I have to be reminded of the positive things I have learned from your Dad.It has greatly influenced my way of thinking everyday when I meet new challenges.It has made me more confident that God is always in me.God will never give up on us.As long as we have a pure heart He will give all what we desire.

I love your above scripture verse: Psalm 37:3-4 as it clearly demonstrates God's healing love, and I often wondered on its complete wholeness regarding desires of my heart. And, that God would be very cautious with me and with every-one with-in our true heart desires. I think there is more to understand on that issue regarding true intent of our heart desires. Lastly, to answer its above blog questions: What can you do today that will show that you put your trust in God? How can you encourage others to do the same? I would offer a few suggestions. One specific is that money is man's law not God's law and that Jesus taught us to be kind to one another. And, I always try to help in that fashion and to always try to return a kind gratitude in some way, shape or form and to use the barter system when I am unable to pay for monetary goods. To trust in God's love and to trust in God's loving miracle ways.

In a prior post I had drawn on your dads possibility thinkers creed:"When faced with a mountain, I will not quit! I will keep on striving until I climb over, Find a pass through, tunnel underneath, Or simply stay and turn that mountain Into a gold mine with God's help." And, I think angels are trying to remind people on how to overcome and not drift away from the basics of life. God never quits on people.

How true the following quote is --------BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD . ---------When we have the patience to let God’s perfect plan unfold, what seems hopeless on Friday is resurrected on Sunday! The same is true in your life. What seems hopeless one day will be resurrected the next by the loving, guiding, masterful hand of your Savior, Jesus Christ. Today, every time you look at a cross, or wear a cross, or see a cross, remember one verse and let your hope be renewed!---HE holds the future . GOD IS FAITHFUL .

"When faced with a mountain, I will not quit! I will keep on striving until I climb over, Find a pass through, tunnel underneath, Or simply stay and turn that mountain Into a gold mine with God's help." A creed from Dr. Robert H. And, yet in divine intervention: Psalm 46: 10 God Himself will turn its scars into angel halos with galaxy stars to prove a point with a message on how people really do miss out on some of the greatest opportunities to help fix its world problems of peoples ignorance, peoples intentional and obvious mountain obstacles, lack of leadership and their lack of faith. Stating such, it is GOD that does not quit on His people, rather, its people that quit on God. So, in my review of Psalm 46:10 I wanted to say A BIG THANK YOU TO GOD. Amen.

thing that ever happened to me.” Thank you for this Positive minute.------------------- ( quote Though employed elsewhere, now, for 20 years, she continued to be enthusiastic about how the “possibility thinking” ministry of the Hour of Power and Crystal Cathedral had helped shape her into the positive person she has become. “This ministry encouraged me always,” she said. “I became a better person…Dr. -------- taught me that ‘if you can dream it…you can DO it!’” She said she’s personally witnessed “God’s hand working in the lives of people everywhere through this ministry.”) This is also my story I have been Encouraged and I to have grown in the faith an become a better person through this ministry

On the 31st December I said to the my husband I am not going to go into 2012 with any baggage from the past 61 years, that was my New Years resolution. I have never been so determined. Prompting of Holy Spirit I believe. Next morning at 4am I woke up to watch any Christian programme that was on and when I turned the TV on The Hour of Power was on and a preacher I had never heard before asked who wanted to receive a miracle of joy.The Pastor was Jim P. He preached on Luke 5:17-30, about the paralytic and his friends and this is where my revelation, rhema came from. Not because of the healing but forgiveness of sins Jesus healed me right there and then he was there forgave me my sins delivered me from guilt and condemnation. The Joy has been with me since. Just to let you know I live in Brisbane Australia, you mentioned Australia also. You also spoke about a programme Revenge and God delivered me and healed me from revenge also I wanted to encourage you I Praise and thank God Adonai

Who has been a godly, positive influence in your life? First, thank you for your church services through the many, many years of the "Hour Of Power" ministry. And, I was very inspired over those years. I do know things have changed drastically in and at the Crystal Cathedral and wish you would re-store a full choir and return to its traditional music and church worship. In addition, I do know the worship choir team is very talented, however, I do wish they would incorporate themselves into the church choir and then add with special individual singers on occasion during the choir segments. Lastly, it really bothered me and several others that you have allowed people to wear caps or hats during the church worship team and its church sermon. I have always been offended by them wearing their caps or hats in God's church. In our church, we always bow our heads and remove our caps in church as its a place to honor God. Those would be some positive changes...

I do know things have changed drastically in and at the Crystal Cathedral and wish you would re-store a full choir and return its traditional music and church worship. I do know the worship choir team is very talented, however, I do wish they would incorporate themselves into its church choir along with special individual singers on occasion during the choir segments. Lastly, it really bothered me and several others that you have allowed people to wear caps or hats during the worship team and its church sermon. I was always offended by them wearing their caps or hats in God's church. In our church, we bow our heads and remove our caps in church. There are No exceptions to that rule. I do hope you consider and if changes would occur, it would be very inspired and with a huge welcome back home from your "Hour Of Power viewers.

Yes indeed God is a God of big and small miracles.But we sometimes do not notice it coming because we are too much focused on our problems,fears and worries.If we only keep trusting God and not on our present conditions ,well miracles will continue to happen in our lives......

God let us go through trials so we become stronger and better persons.He allows things to happen in our lives so we will someday use these for people to see that under any circumstances God is there as long as you call upon Him.My life is an open book and I fully understand that everything has a reason why these things happened.I am so grateful for my past,contented with the present and very hopeful for the future.With God always in me, I shall always be a winner and overcomer.God is so good and I can say that He is alive and living in me most especially when I am put under the test.If it happen to me, it can happen to you .Miracles do happen everyday .let us share to others and testify what God has done to our lives!

I can make amazingly many good experiences to inspire others. This works especially well with creative people and possibility thinkers (good book). The last book on creativity that inspired me was "Embracing Change" by T. Buzan. (mind map, visualization, vision, learning process, tools, self-expression, etc.). (cf. 1 Peter 4:10)

WOW! I am so touched with this message.Touching people's lives is one of the visions I have gotten from Dr.Schuller by using his positive thinking and possibilty living views.I can say he really has greatly influenced my views about life in a reakl mpositive way and I share this to everyone.Starting the day with a smile,thanking and praising God with my lips then my favorite:God loves you and so do I-jut like how your ministry greet everyone specially every Sunday,has molded me as a whole and better person.I can share on and on and on and I thank God for using him to reach out to more people even through the different modes of media.It is really amazing and wonderful feeling.And I thank all of you as well for continuing what he has started.My prayers always for you all!
