HOW TO TURN THE ORDINARY INTO THE EXTRA-ORDINARY IN YOUR LIFE
Here are my notes from Charles Price (Living Truth Ministry 30th August 2009)
My Note:
Where the term “Him” is used, use whatever term which you use (She, It, Ultimate Source, Ground of All Being, Higher power, Universal Consciousness???) to describe God, Source of Life, Infinite Spirit
*
“The Son can do nothing without the Father.”
“I am here to fulfil.”
Whatever He says, DO IT! (don’t be scared, my good friend “John boy”!)
Listen. Ask for His co-operation.
God is the initiator of anything significant.
Jesus gives a command: “Speak it into existence!”
Every act is precipitated by an act of obedience.
Depend on Him. Just TRUST
He takes the ordinary and produces the extra-ordinary – his raw material is the ordinary.
God does things you and I could never do… so revealing His glory. Jesus’s disciples put their faith in Him.
*
THE (MY) GREATEST RACE
Paul had a purpose in living – he had the single-mindedness of an athlete in training. St Paul lived with a selfless attitude in serving and giving.
What we put into our minds determines what comes out in our words and actions. Paul tells us to program our mind with thoughts that are true, honourable, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent and worthy of praise.
Don’t let anything take your eye off the goal – knowing Christ. Focus all your energies towards winning the race.
DEPEND, SUBMIT and simplyTRUST
Shine your light brightly for Christ, the One who makes the ordinary in our lives extra-ordinary.
Charles Price

“A book is small enough to hold in your hand; but when you read it, the walls fall away and you’re in a room as big as the world.”

“As we live and move and have our being, so from this vision, we create heaven in our own lives… and perhaps even heaven on earth.”
– craig (as inspired by Acts 17:28 and the words of Felicia Searcy)
“Aim at the earth and you may not get off the ground.
“Aim at the stars and you may reach the moon.”
“Aim at heaven and you’ll have earth thrown in…
and you may even hit the stars.”
– craig (as inspired by the famous quote by CS Lewis – 24th May 2012)
“When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.”
– Leonardo da Vinci

“If a man is called to be a street-sweeper,
he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted,
or Beethoven composed music, or
Shakespeare wrote poetry.
He should sweep streets so well
that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say,
here lived a great street sweeper
who did his job well.”
– Dr Martin Luther King, Jr.
