��The truest measure of a life is not it��s
length, but the fullness in which it is
lived.��
- Maria Housden

? The temptation to not go all out
? The temptation to live for ourselves
? The temptation to take life into our own hands

? Disoriented as we walk the terrains
? We end up become earth-bound, forgetting
life doesn��t depend on us alone
? The fire becomes extinguished, God gets
put in His little place (can��t trace His hand)

? A burning stick snatched from d�� fire ~ John
? A stumbling & a haunting ~ minister,
missionary, failure, haunted by his sin
? Strangely warmed ~ a morning promise, an
evening discovery, a lifetime passion!

versus 13-27
?Chewing on it ~ (arguing, questioning)
?Confessing d�� truth & living it ~ giving voice to
their reality
?Company with d�� Divine ~ giving space for the
stranger to chronicle life for them

versus 28 - 32
?Transforming journey : hopeless to hope-filled
?Transforming discipleship : clueless to dawning
understanding
?Transforming friendship : guest to host

versus 33-35
?Changing their journey��s direction
?Finding new fuel for d��future
?Finding His presence among them

? Each our own colorful lives
? Courageous daring to tell the truth & live it
? Allowing d�� Divine Presence to disciple us

? Going thro our own wilderness experiences
? Refusing to divert our course
? Confessions & conversations with God

? Never living half-heartedly ~ meaningless
? Recognizing God��s imprints ~ points to our
next calling
? His continued Presence ~ which never lets go

��Walking Out of Darkness" is a book about moving beyond loss and living a more fulfilling life. We wrote ��Walking Out of Darkness�� to be a comfort to anyone that has lost someone in their life, or is going through a difficult time in life. No matter how devastating a loss or challenge in life may seem, there is beauty in the world around us. In this book, we try to encourage readers to recognize and appreciate the magnificence and beauty that surrounds us.

The document discusses how people often envy others and wish they had what others possess. It notes that advertisements and media promote the idea that acquiring certain possessions can transform one's life. However, the document argues that everyone has their own talents and strengths, and encourages focusing on developing one's own abilities rather than envying others. It concludes by advising the reader to recognize their own strengths and talents in order to find true peace and happiness.

Mother Teresa was a Catholic nun and missionary who dedicated her life to serving the poor and sick in India. She founded the Missionaries of Charity and won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 for her humanitarian work.

TIME OF THE SIXTH SUN currently in production is a film about the shift in global awareness?and the expansion of consciousness?as we move beyond the much prophesized date of 2012. Our Ancestors understood our symbiotic relationship?to the Earth and the Elements and foresaw the collapsing of an unsustainable world. This is a story about collectively co-creating a new sustainable world for our children and their children. A new Earth. Our legacy.

This document discusses the importance of partnership and collaboration based on biblical examples. It notes that the Bible depicts God, Jesus, and the early church as partnering and working together. Jesus modeled sharing leadership with others rather than insisting on being the sole leader. The document encourages loosening one's grip on power and authority in order to develop deeper friendships, experience greater joy, and accomplish greater tasks through living and working together with others as God intends.

Life Means MoreNikhil Parekh

Life means more according to the document. It summarizes that life means imagination, observation of magnificent surroundings, seduction to unprecedented limits, devotion to what you cherish, fascination with beauty on Earth, and being connected to God. Life is also described as grandiloquent, benevolent, turbulent with thoughts and emotions, fragrant, prudent, unfathomable, unconquerable in love, unbelievable with amazing incidents, unimaginable with new perceptions, fabulous, mysterious, mischievous, adventurous, perilous, and an incredulous gift from God.

The Pilgrim's Way: On the Camino de Santiago de Compostela Rose Pacatte, D. Min.

"The Pilgrim's Way" is a presentation I gave at St. Margaret Mary Parish in Lower Burrell, PA (Greensburg Diocese about an hour from Pittsburgh) on March 22, 2014 during a weekend retreat using the 2012 film "The Way" starring Martin Sheen and directed by his son Emilio Estevez. This presentation was given to the parish at large on a Saturday evening as part of the parish's intergenerational catechesis program - for the adults and older teens while Sr Jennifer spoke to the junior high kids and Joan Duncan and catechists gave a pilgrimage presentation to K-4. The plan was to give those not participating in the "Lenten pilgrimage" retreat to get a taste of what we were doing and perhaps entice people to consider making a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, a Marian shrine, Rome, or even a local shrine or the Cathedral. The idea was to introduce and deepen the delights of the pilgrimage, inner and outer.

TMCPJ 57th Anniversary - Remembering Our Past & Building For Our FuturePhylicia Hwam

Trinity Methodist Church Petaling Jaya celebrated its 57th anniversary by looking back at its origins in 1957 and efforts to expand facilities to accommodate growing membership. The church began in a small hall but saw membership increase quickly, requiring an expansion in the 1960s to build the current sanctuary. Through the 1970s and 1980s, the church continued expanding its kindergarten and facilities. By the 2010s, decades of growth led to plans for a major 60,000 square foot redevelopment and extension project to meet continued needs, with construction beginning in 2015-2016. The church emphasized the project's purpose is to glorify God and cement people to Jesus, not just increase real estate.

TMCPJ Wholesome Family Camp - #01 Redeeming Paradise by Dr. Herbert TanPhylicia Hwam

This document discusses redeeming family relationships through turning hearts toward God and each other. It explores how Genesis depicts family ideals and their fall, but promises restoration. Key points include: 1) Redeeming paradise involves turning parents' hearts to their children and the disobedient to wisdom, to prepare people for God. 2) Genesis models centrality of God, worth of women, and redemption following humanity's fall. 3) Relationships can be redeemed through affection, intellect, and will being turned from self to others. 4) Both parents and children are called to turn their hearts to each other through love, understanding, and building connections.

The document discusses the importance of parenting and discipling future generations according to God's commands. It emphasizes teaching children and grandchildren God's decrees so that they may live righteously. When nations follow God and do good, they become wise and understanding. However, revival is needed as many modern families lack spiritual discipline and instruction of children. Christians must make their households places where God is feared and holiness is practiced, discipling the next generations to stand firm in their faith.
