Notice how the foLlowing verse says to be 'like minded.' If you could give someone a boxed up defintion of practically living for God, this would come very close:
Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble. 
1 Peter 3:8-12

In Search of the Right One

Image
. Searching for the right person, or the one you can love for the rest  of your life  can be a long, almost unending search. .  I'm not a phycologist,  so all I can share with you is from my experiences in life. The one thing I'm sure of however, is that I never found a best friend by searching for one. All my best friends showed up by accident  while I was busy going about my life.  Being patient is usually an understatement. And the desire to have  that person you dream of can become so great, that it can drive you to extremes . Loneliness is a hard thing to deal with and not many people  are made for that kind of single lifestyle.  . The thing to remember is not to let those desires get the best of you. What I found is that it's best to find love where it originates - and that is with God.  . God loves you completely and unconditionally and understands you better than we understand our own selves.  In the Bible it says: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his

What are We Doing With Our Life?

  When you mix, love, joy, peace, patience kindness together, like "mixing them together in a soup" it forms a beautiful life. You find that's the definition of God. That's who He is. And  that same love is what He wants to give to us too... When you look at what "LOVE" is, here are a few descriptions: "But  the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.... " Galatians 5:22-23.  You know when you think about those qualities, they're pretty great, but when you "mix" them all up together, you come up with something beautiful . That's who God is. He's patient with us, gentle, He's kind and faithful to us. Think about that for a second. Not only that but God gives joy (happiness) and peace.  In I Corinthians it talks about how love is patient, love is kind, love does not envy..."  Think about that for a second. If you don't have hope in God, what

Fulfilling Your God Given Destiny

  Welcome to Gods Beautiful Name!  I love sailing,hiking, personal motivation, business and sharing what I love with others! Feel free to check out all my exciting adventures at my websites below! . . This week I want to share with you:     Fulfilling Your God Given Destiny   You know, God has made each of us with special talents and abilities and a desire to succeed at using these talents for him to help others.  When we get caught in a rut and aren’t pushing forward to fulfill this destiny, then we lose our passion for life and find ourselves frustrated and “spinning our wheels”.  It’s also important to know however, that God loves us no matter where we’re at and no matter what we have achieved. Tomorrow is a new day and even the time we have left in our day is a good place to change gears and start thinking, dreaming and working again to fulfill this in our lives.  After listening to Joel Oilstone talk about this, I instantly realized what I loved to do and what o wish I could do mo
