P. 4
5-S is for SPIRIT
A life lived without SPIRIT and truth doesn’t go far. We are not meant
to live life alone, but to make room in our hearts for our Creator God.
Having a receptive and releasing spirit brings more positive results to
anything you do.
Life Is Made Up of “The 3 Ps”
These three P’s are:
(1) Purposes
(2) Priorities
(3) Practices
These are three things that must line up in our lives, and compliment
each other, for our lives to run smoothly. We can’t have goals that are
at odds with these three things, and compete with them. These are like
‘the big picture’ of life in our minds and hearts.
We all feel we have a PURPOSE in life, or purposes, if it is nothing more
than going to work and clocking in from 9 to 5, and going home to
watch T.V. Hopefully life is more than just this. But the truth is we all
function from a purpose we deem to be important to us.
Then our PRIORITIES must line up with our purpose or purposes. If we
don’t live in our priorities in life, they don’t really take ‘priority’ in our
life. For instance, if you set a goal, it becomes like a priority to you, but
if that goal or priority doesn’t fit with your purpose as to how you live
life, then there is competition here.
Our priorities, and thus our goals, must evolve from our purpose. If we
list our goals, and they don’t line up with our purposes, “We are
double-minded and become unstable,” as is said.
