“I do not believe in a God who would set up rules and commandments only to wait for us to fail so He could punish us. I believe in a Heavenly Father who is loving and caring and who rejoices in our every effort to stand tall and walk toward Him. Even when we stumble, He urges us not to be discouraged-never to give up or flee our allotted field of service-but to take courage, find our faith, and keep trying.” LoveGivingTryingBelieveGodCareChristianFaithFatherBeliefI BelieveWaitingReligiousWalksEffortChristianityCourageFailingFieldsFailureGiving UpI Believe InCaringPunishmentGod LoveHeavenlyUrgesTallRejoiceCommandmentsNot Giving UpNever Giving UpDiscouragedKeep TryingHeavenly FatherStumblingFleeing Author:Dieter F.

“Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won't die. You will come to life. And don't be concerned with how others define you. When they define you, they are limiting themselves, so it's their problem. Whenever you interact with people, don't be there primarily as a function or a role, but as the field of conscious Presence. You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are.” PeopleLifeInspirationalGivingProblemSpiritualDiesLosesRolesFieldsGiving UpConsciousConcernedFunctionDefiningPower Of NowDefine YouNew EarthDefine YourselfLimiting Yourself Book:A New Earth (Oprah #61): Awakening to Your Life's Purpose Source: A New Earth (Oprah #61): Awakening to Your Life's Purpose
