It discusses avoiding evil influences, allowing God to reshape one's heart, and growing Christian virtues like faith, goodness, knowledge, and love.

Each stage of life is part of God's calling and Christians should focus on ministry, growth, and following God's leading rather than money or careers.

In Pursuit of Joy
1) The document discusses finding joy through celebrating God daily, not worrying, and letting prayers and praise replace worries.
2) It also discusses finding joy through worship which nourishes the soul, welcomes the broken spirit, and satisfies our longing for God.
3) Additionally, the document discusses finding joy through attitude, participation, and making Christ the center of one's life rather than worry.
Repentance
1) Repentance means turning away from sin and turning towards God by surrendering one's life to Jesus. Sin separates man from God but Jesus bridged that gap through his death on the cross.
2) To truly repent, one must acknowledge their sins rather than justify them. Sins destroy us just as physical wounds can kill if not treated. We must acknowledge our sins and turn to Jesus, our doctor, for forgiveness and cleansing.
3) True repentance changes our entire lifestyle and personality as we live to please God rather than man. It is a personal choice to let God change us from the inside out through turning back to him and returning to the right path.

With the contemporary renewed emphasis on the Holy Spirit and in the light of certain trials and temptations of the Christian life, its relevance and its meaning should become more clear. It cannot be easily identified with a clearly spelled out act or state, and yet it is the Sacrament, in a way, of everyday Christian vitality because it gives us the Holy Spirit in a special manner to fortify us in the day to day struggle with the powers of darkness, to enable us to answer the enemy, to come to maturity, prepared to show our faith in word and action, to live it and defend it, to persevere as defenders and witnesses to that faith and, as the old definition put it, "strong and perfect Christians, soldiers of Jesus Christ". It is by Confirmation that we receive the gifts of Pentecost that Christ sent us in order to make us his agents, the builders of his Kingdom. We are gathered here today for the joyful celebration of receiving the Holy Spirit in the Sacrament of Confirmation. The Lord will dwell in us.

More from David Walters
Are you running on empty.
A widow was left penniless after her husband died, with no money, food, or means of support. Everything in her home was empty. In her desperate situation, she turned to God for help. Though she had experienced great emptiness, when she turned to God, He filled her life with blessings. The passage encourages readers who feel empty in their lives to turn to God as well, who can fill them with peace and joy.
Are you running on empty.
A widow was left penniless after her husband died, with no money, food, or means of support. Everything in her home was empty. In her desperation, she turned to God. Though she had experienced great emptiness, when she turned to God, He filled her life with blessings. The document encourages readers that if they feel empty in life, they should turn to God to find peace and joy, just as He filled the widow's life.
Lost
This short document provides guidance for those who feel lost by recommending turning to God and Jesus, who said "I am the way, the truth, and the life" as referenced in John 14:6. It suggests those unsure of which path to take should turn to God as the one true way.
Take courage my friend.
Take courage, as God will go with you to fight for you and save you from your enemies, according to Deuteronomy 20:3-4. It takes courage to obey God and go where he sends you, as David must have felt facing Goliath. Whatever God has asked you to do, remember that he will be with you through it all.
Count your blessings.
This document encourages counting blessings rather than troubles, as God's love and goodness endure. When feeling down, consider all the ways God has blessed you each day, as named in songs and scripture. Even on hard days, God remains present to offer comfort and companionship.
Love 4.
God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son so that whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. The passage questions whether one believes that God loves not just the world but them personally. It asserts that while some believe God loves and cares for others, God truly does love and care for everyone, including the reader, but asks if the reader also loves God in return.
Praise 2.
This document discusses counting blessings, both seen and unseen. It references a hymn about counting blessings one by one, but questions if people truly thank God for those blessings. While minds typically count visible blessings, the document also encourages considering God's invisible hand in one's life.
Forgiveness 2.
Forgiveness is an act of endless forgiveness, just as God daily forgives us when we trust in Him through Christ's death and resurrection. God made the first move by forgiving our sins and continues to forgive us despite our failures, so we must forgive those who fail us as the Lord has forgiven us.
Love 2.
God's love is made visible through Jesus, not just possible. Real love is shown through attention, affection and sacrifice for others, without words. To know how much God loves you, look at what he sacrificed on the cross at Calvary.
Joy 2.
This passage discusses finding joy through God. It notes that babies smile at their parents because of the love and joy they bring. Similarly, getting to know God better through daily time with Him can be the source of great joy, as He wants to be the cause of our happiness and delight.
Thankful.
The passage encourages keeping the word of Christ dwelling within through teaching and admonishing one another with wisdom, singing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude to God. It suggests that practicing gratitude through starting each day with thanks and ending thankful helps keep one spiritually strong by maintaining an attitude of gratitude.
Worry.
The Bible verse 1 John 4:12 states that no one has seen God, but if we love each other, God lives in us and His love is perfected in us. The document encourages the reader not to feel discouraged because God's love is at work in their life and He helps us love others as He loves us. It suggests asking God for help in knowing how to meet needs and build relationships.
Love.
God demonstrated His love for humanity by sending His Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross as a sacrifice for humanity's sins while we were still sinners, separated from God. The cross provides objective proof of God's love in that He offered up His own Son to atone for our sins. Calvary, where Jesus died, is the absolute and irrefutable evidence of God's love for us.
Praise
This short passage discusses appreciating those who help you and seeing the best in others. It references Psalm 34:1 about always praising God and extolling the Lord. Seeing the positives in people leads to discovering blessings around you.
Mercy
Mercy is a gift from God that He asks us to give to others through forgiveness, not because they deserve it but because of the mercy God has shown us. When we show mercy and forgiveness to others, it also brings freedom to ourselves. God asks us to walk humbly with Him by showing mercy as He has shown mercy to us.
Joy.
Jesus found His joy not in earthly pleasures but in obeying God's will by enduring the cross to deal with sin and death once for all. This allowed believers to have full and lasting joy through their relationship with Jesus, as He discussed with His disciples.
Rejoice.
The Bible passage from Philippians encourages the reader to rejoice in God and not be anxious about anything, but instead make all requests known to God through prayer and thanksgiving. As one waits for answers in life, they should take the opportunity to rejoice in God and through doing so can experience God's best while patiently waiting.
Forgivness
The Bible passage from Leviticus 19:18 instructs people to love their neighbors and not seek vengeance or bear grudges. Bernard Meltzer noted that while forgiveness does not change the past, it can change the future. Forgiving others who have wronged you takes courage and is the hardest part of being in a relationship and investing in another person's life.
Christmas 2010
Isaiah prophesied about the birth, life, and reign of Jesus Christ. He saw three things: 1) A cradle, referring to Jesus's incarnation as both fully God and fully man. 2) A cross, referring to Jesus willingly suffering death to provide salvation. 3) A crown, referring to Jesus's future glory and eternal reign over all creation as the ruler appointed by God. Together, the cradle, cross, and crown depict the past, present, and future aspects of God's salvation plan accomplished through the coming of Jesus Christ.
You are my sunshine
A mother named Karen helped her 3-year-old son Michael prepare to welcome his new baby sister. During the pregnancy and birth complications, Michael sang to his sister in the womb. When the baby was born in serious condition and rushed to the NICU, Michael kept begging to sing to her. Despite rules against children in the NICU, Karen brought Michael to sing his sister's favorite song. As Michael sang "You Are My Sunshine", the baby's condition improved and she was able to go home the next day, in what was called "The Miracle of a Brother's Song."

The Revelation Chapter 7 Working Copy.docx
John witnesses the sealing of God's 144,000 witnesses, and he hears the crying out or shouting of an unnumbered multitude of those who have been saved during the great tribulation.
This is an intermission scene before opening the seventh seal. We have seen six seals opened revealing of the events that would shortly occur. The first 4 reveal what was to occur in the great tribulation during the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in AD70.
The fifth seal reveals the question from those slain as to when the Lord would avenge their death. The sixth seal reveals the answer to them from the One on the throne and of the Lamb which would be the punishment of their persecutors and accomplices. John sees four messengers/angels holding back the four winds of the earth & keeping them from blowing on the earth, the sea or any tree. In this figurative language, these are not heavenly messengers/angels. These represent those who are trying to restrain the word of God everywhere. Their efforts are restrained by the messenger in verse 2, preventing them from holding back the 4 winds, the spread of the gospel of Christ by His messengers/angels. These 4 winds stand on the four corners of the earth, Rome’s worldwide influence to stop its spread. But the gospel will be preached in all the earth. See the study for the Bible passages that support this. John hears the commands given relating to the sealing of the servants of God and the figurative number representing them. John sees a great multitude standing before the throne of all nations and kindreds and people and tongues who are clothed with white robes. All the messengers/angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four beasts fell before the throne and worshipped God. One of the elders asks John what those were that were wearing white robes. John said he knew and the elder identifies them. The chapter ends with his explanation.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
OM Meditation - ultimate meditation technique
PHASE-IV
The very deep experience of silence helps to expand from the 3 - dimensional awareness of the body to all pervasive awareness. The bed of silence becomes deeper and more expansive - an ocean of silence with waves on it merge into complete silence called Ajapa state of the mind. This silence is the source of Creativity, Power, Knowledge and Bliss.
PHASE V
From this deep ocean of silence in the heart region, let one OM emerge as an audible sound which diffuses into the entire body and the space all around. Enjoy the beautiful vibrations.
Blink the eyes slowly, gently open the eyes and come out of meditation.

Muladhara is the root centre of physical experience, located at the base of the spine, the sacral plexus. The square represents the earth itself, the four dimensions and the four directions. Four allows for completion, and earth embodies the elements and conditions for human completion on all levels.
Muladhara Chakra is the meeting place of the three main nadis: Ida, Pingala and Sushumna. The downward-pointing triangle indicates the downward movement of energy and the three main nadis.
The seed mantra is Lam, the yellow square represents the earth element. The Muladhara chakra governs the vital breath Apana. An inverted triangle in the centre of the square encloses the unmanifest Kundalini, represented as a snake wrapped in three and a half coils around the svayambhu (self born) linga. Because her mouth faces downward, the flow of energy is downward.
The opening at the entrance of the sushumna is called brahma-dvara, the door of Brahma, which is closed by the coils of the sleeping Kundalini. As soon as one begins working with Muladhara chakra, this dormant energy awakens, raises its head and flows freely into the channel of Sushumna, the central nerve canal that runs along the spine. These two aspects of the kundalini: sleeping and waking, are identified as her “poison” and her “nectar.” The kundalini is poison when she remains asleep in the lower abdomen; she is nectar when she rises up through Sushumna, the medial channel, to reunite with Siva, the Absolute, in the yogin’s cranial vault.
In the pericarp is found the presiding deity Brahma, the lord of creation. His skin is the color of wheat, he wears a yellow dhoti and a green scarf. Brahma is four-faced, four-armed, holding in his upper left hand a lotus flower, the symbol of purity.
The Significance of the Locust Army in Revelation 9
The Book of Revelation, filled with symbolic and apocalyptic imagery, presents one of its most striking visions in Revelation 9:3-12—the locust army. Understanding the significance of this locust army provides insight into the broader themes of divine judgment, protection, and the ultimate triumph of God’s will as depicted in Revelation.
Tales of This and Another Life - Chapters.pdf
This book is one of the best of the translated ones, for it has a warning character for all those who find themselves in the experience of material life. Irmão X provides a shrewd way of describing the subtleties and weaknesses that can jeopardize our intentions, making us more attentive and vigilant by providing us with his wise pages, reminding us between the lines of the Master's words: "Pray and watch."
