Denise Inge introduces a selection from Thomas Traherne's writing
in this, the third volume in this series on seventeenth century
spiritual writers. This volume will contain some biographical
detail and historical context, the story of the discovery of his
work as well as a discussion of its literary and spiritual power.
The main body of the anthology will cover both well known works
such as a selection from the Centuries and also excerpts from newer
discoveries, including a recent find from Lambeth Palace Library.
Thomas Traherne 1636?-1674 was schooled at Brasenose College,
Oxford, was ordainded and served in the village of Credenhill,
Herefordshire.
Our culture is self-obsessed - in our schedules, relationships, and
especially online. (Can you say selfie?) But in this
near-narcissism, people are less content than in decades past. Why?
Because we forgot the joy that comes from putting others first.
Doing so requires us to live alert, listening for "heart drops,"
hints from those in our lives who need a helping hand or a generous
dose of encouragement. Living alert lifts our own spirits, showing
us that blessing others blesses us even more. Listen, Love, Repeat
offers biblical teaching and suggests doable actions that are
simple, heart-tugging, sentimental, even sneaky and hilarious. This
message: * Presents scriptural examples of those who lived alert,
including Jesus, who noticed those who least expected to be seen. *
Explains the role of good works for followers of Christ. They
aren't our ticket to heaven but they are our marching orders on
earth. * Gives creative ideas for showing love to friends and
family, and suggests practical ways to reach out to the lonely, the
marginalized, the outcast, and the odd duck. Additionally, it helps
you comfort the grieving, showing what you can do when you don't
know what to say. * Provides inspiration for blessing the
"necessary people" in your life, those often-overlooked souls who
help you get life done every day, and teaches you how to hug a
porcupine by genuinely loving the hard-to-love. As we scatter love,
we create a safe space where we can openly share the gospel. We get
to see lives changed right before our eyes. Most importantly,
Listen, Love, Repeat will enable you to live a life that is full of
kind deeds, not to selfishly shout, "Hey! Look at me!" but to
humbly implore, "Will you look at Him?"
Each moment that you’re given is a precious gift from God. You can
choose to have a thankful attitude and live each moment full of joy,
simply because God is good. In The Power of Thank You: Discover The Joy
Of Gratitude, renowned Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling
author Joyce Meyer encourages us to take a look at ourselves and the
importance of being thankful.
Living life with a heart of gratitude for who God is and what He has
done lifts your burdens and allows you to see everything in a different
light. Regularly giving thanks to God not only helps you fully realize
how He’s working in your life, it gives you a new perspective—your mind
is renewed, your attitude is improved, and you're filled with joy.
Things will certainly happen to you that don’t seem fair, and it’s much
easier to make excuses and feel sorry for yourself. Keep saying, “I
trust You, God, and I believe You will work it all out for my good.” If
you find The Power of Thank You in every situation, truly believing
that God is working everything out for your good, you will end up with
the victory every single time.
