    “our current mental-hygiene philosophy stresses the idea that people ought to be happy, that unhappiness is a symptom of maladjustment. Such a value system might be responsible for the fact that the burden of unavoidable unhappiness is increased by unhappiness about being unhappy.”4”
    Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

    Dan S. Kennedy
    “When I started in real estate, despite high ambition, I was constrained by the same 24 hours as everyone else. My early success came from a grueling schedule, long hours, and the high price of near burn-out. In self-defense, I devised a system that featured direct marketing in place of traditional prospecting plus a highly effective team, with all the non-rainmaker tasks delegated to them. This took me to the top of the profession, twice #1 in RE/MAX worldwide in commissions earned, and 15 years as one of the top agents—working less hours than most. While an active agent, I consistently sold over 500 homes a year, even while starting and developing a second business, training and coaching more millionaire agents than any other coach. Without the inspiration of Dan Kennedy’s direct marketing methods and his extraordinary, extreme time-management philosophy, these achievements simply would not have been possible. LEVERAGING yourself, by media in place of manual labor, and with other people is very intimidating to most real estate agents and to most small businesspeople. It frankly is not easy to get right, but it is the quantum leap that uniquely and simultaneously lifts income and supports a great lifestyle. —CRAIG PROCTOR, CRAIGPROCTOR.COM”

    “19Now devote your heart and soul to seeking the LORD your God.g Begin to build the sanctuary of the LORD God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD and the sacred articles belonging to God into the temple that will be built for the Name of the LORD.”

    Zac Poonen
    “For a convert to become a disciple, he must first of all cut off any attachment to his relatives that hinders him from following the Lord (Luke 14:26). Secondly, he must be willing to deny himself and put his Self-life to death daily (Luke 14:27). Thirdly, he must give up his love for material possessions (Luke 14:33). These are the three minimum requirements for anyone wanting to be a disciple.”

    Zac Poonen
    “Jesus said “If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, he cannot be My disciple” (Luke 14:26). Those are strong words. What does it mean to ‘hate’? To hate is the same as to kill (1 John 3:15). What we are asked to put to death here is the natural affection that we have for our relatives.”
    Zac Poonen, Practical Discipleship: The Christian Attitude to Earthly Matters

    Zac Poonen
    “To hate our own life is to give up seeking our own rights and privileges, to stop seeking our own reputation, to forsake our own ambitions and interests, and to stop seeking our own way etc. We can be disciples of Jesus, only if we are willing to go this way.”
    Zac Poonen, Practical Discipleship: The Christian Attitude to Earthly Matters

    Zac Poonen
    “God may allow us to use some of those things. But we cannot think of them as our own any more. Even if we are living in our own house, we must consider the house as God’s; and that He has allowed us to stay in it rent-free! This is true discipleship.”
    Zac Poonen, Practical Discipleship: The Christian Attitude to Earthly Matters

    “How great a tragedy it is for God to write books for man to read and yet most men do not read them as they know they should. Such negligence is willful ignorance and is not responsible nor is it reasonable.”
    Jesse Morrell, Cleansing the Temple: A Call to Radical Christianity

  • #12
    “Christ also warned, “He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad” (Matt. 12:30). There is no middle ground. You are either of God or of the devil, a servant of righteousness or a servant of sin, a saint or a sinner, walking in the light or walking in darkness, reconciled or at enmity, repentant or carnally minded. Those who do not take orders from God must be on the side of the devil. Failure to submit to the leadership of God is the very act of treason. The more we disobey God the more we help advance the territory of the enemy. Submission to God is of the utmost importance because the battle itself is over that - submission to God.”

    “If you could not help but to sin, how could God hold you accountable for that which you were forced to do to begin with?”

    “16You will surely forget your trouble,e           recalling it only as waters gone by.f      17Life will be brighter than noonday,g           and darkness will become like morning.h      18You will be secure, because there is hope;           you will look about you and take your resti in safety.j      19You will lie down, with no one to make you afraid,k           and many will court your favor.l      20But the eyes of the wicked will fail,m           and escape will elude them;n           their hope will become a dying gasp.”o”

    “5:13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.”

    “17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.”
