Adjusting the Lens Through Which You See the World



Belief

Your belief is the only limiting factor today for most areas of your life. What you BELIEVE to be true about your worth, value, beauty, assets, contribution, health, creativity, brilliance, potential and unique gifts and talents determine what you will find, create, attract and develop today. He says you are perfect just the way He made you. Believe that. Trust that. BE that... Just do YOU today-- that is enough.

Search

I'm looking for something extraordinary today. Something that makes absolutely no sense. Out of the norm, so much better than I deserve. Outrageous and stupendous, unexplainable and beyond reason. Miraculous... Now the search begins-- "Fascinating."

Lakewood

I need your prayers... We (The Power of Peace Project) are attempting to buy a building down in the Lakewood Community of downtown Atlanta-- near Turner Field where we have our Carver High School "Inspired Straight" Program. Because of the neighborhood where it sits, nobody wants this building (crime, drugs, prostitution, etc). There are currently 44 beautiful little children that have daycare programs in this building every day, because of the love of two little pastor ladies who teach them while their parents can't afford daycare. They are in danger of losing their program and the building being sold to put up another liquor store and pawn shop. We aim to buy it and rescue these kids-- as well as bring all the other programs that this little, hopeless community desperately needs. Please help us bring the Light.

Angola

"A Weekend on The Row." (At Angola) What a life changing experience as we spent a weekend in old death row cells and served the men of Angola State Prison in rural Louisiana... An old plantation prison, once known as the bloodiest prison in the world, Angola sits on 18,000 acres of farm land bordered by the Mississippi river. The largest prison in the U.S. Angola houses over 6,300 inmates, almost 5000 of whom will live the rest of their natural lives there. One death row inmate asked me why I was there, and I honestly told him that while I could not relate to being on death row, that I did remember what loneliness felt like, and if I was there I would want someone to visit me... I met an old man named Samuel at Angola who had been incarcerated for over 50 years (longer than I have been alive). He has spent over 30 of those as an elder for the church at Angola. I asked him if he would mentor a fool like me. His eyes filled with tears and he said yes, and would I be willing to write him-- I said that I would be honored. I need wise men like Samuel in my life, and I will sit at his feet and learn from him... More to come from my "Field of Dreams." I will never be the same.

Thoughts

Today you and I will have in the neighborhood of 50,000 unique thoughts. The question is: will you be paying attention and aware of the thoughts that dominate your head space? Many have listened to "old tapes" for so long, that they've become unaware that they're still playing them; over and over (the lights are on, but nobody's home)... Are those 50,000 based in Lack or Plenty? Scarcity or Abundance? Faith or Fear? Thoughts become THINGS. Pay attention and play some new material-- it will set you free.

Moving Fast

What an amazing weekend for the Power of Peace Project in Southern California... Friday night meeting with a Publicist in Burbank to pitch a Catalyst TV Show idea; taught our Inspired Straight Program to a group of youth offenders for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Dept on Sat afternoon; then we filmed a fascinating interview for our Unshackled Project with an ex-offender who recently was released after serving over 30 years in the toughest prisons in the CA Dept of Corrections-- laughter, goosebumps and tears; then had the honor of preaching to a beautiful church in Santa Clarita on Sunday morning-- Diary of a Prodigal Son... Took the red-eye home last night, and now I must fall down. Man, God is moving SO fast.
