que Cristo viva en sus corazones por la fe, y que el amor sea la raíz y el fundamento de sus vidas. Y que así puedan comprender con todo el pueblo santo cuán ancho, largo, alto y profundo es el amor de Cristo. Pido, pues, que conozcan ese amor, que es mucho más grande que todo cuanto podemos conocer, para que lleguen a colmarse de la plenitud total de Dios. Efesios 3:17–19 (DHH) La gente hace todo tipo de cosas locas por amor, aunque a menudo vienen con las manos vacías. El problema es que no entienden cómo llenar esta necesidad que todos tenemos de amor. La mayoría de la gente buscar amor en los demás. Por desgracia, nuestras relaciones con los demás no pueden llenar por …
MISUNDERSTOOD LOVE (320)
And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:17–19 (NIV) People do all kinds of crazy things for love, yet often they come up empty. The problem is that they misunderstand how to fill this need we all have for love. Most people look to others for love. Unfortunately, our relationships with others can’t completely fill our seemingly bottomless need for love and approval. Although we all need healthy, fulfilling relationships, we also need a relationship with God. God wants …
How to build the career you REALLY want
Sometimes it can feel like things are moving so fast that you’re no longer making your choices on purpose. Instead of spending time on your priorities at work, you live in what I call the reactionary zone, just reacting to the problems that pop up day to day. You’re consumed with problems. Although we all go through seasons like this where it takes everything we have to deal with the problems we are facing, we can’t create a successful career in this mode. There has to come a point where, no matter how busy you are, you choose to build your career instead of just survive it. Building your career is about more than solving problems. It’s about choosing the direction you want to go. …
Necesita Amor Ágape
Yo los amo a ustedes como el Padre me ama a mí; permanezcan, pues, en el amor que les tengo. Juan 15:9 (DHH) ¿Alguna vez lucha con los malos hábitos? A menudo, la gente trata de usar la autodisciplina para cambiar su comportamiento, y luego experimentan la culpa y vergüenza cuando tienen una recaida. Mientras la autodisciplina no es una mala idea, a veces tienen que cavar un poco más profundo. La raíz del problema puede ser que no están experimentando el amor de Dios. Ellos pueden estar tratando de llenar un vacío que sólo Su amor puede llenar. La adicción, agradar a la gente y el comportamiento codependiente son ejemplos de personas que tratan de llegar a tener una necesidad satisfecha por el …
YOU NEED AGAPE LOVE
I have loved you, [just] as the Father has loved Me; abide in My love [continue in His love with Me]. John 15:9 (AMP) Do you ever struggle with bad habits? Often people try to use self-discipline alone to change their behaviour, and then they experience guilt and shame when they have a setback. While self-discipline isn’t a bad idea, sometimes they need to dig a little deeper. The root of the problem may be that they’re not experiencing God’s love. They may be trying to fill a void that only His love can fill. Addiction, people-pleasing and codependent behaviour are examples of people trying to reach out to get a need met the wrong way. They have work to do on their belief systems, …
