Daily Blessings

Think

I open my mind to new understanding, new insight, AND new ideas.

Are you a thinker? If so, then your mind is filled with fresh ideas on any subject to which you give your attention. Our ability to think, to meditate upon an idea, is what makes us different from the rest of the animal kingdom. Along with our ability to think, God gives us the ability to work out constructive plans to bring these ideas to life.

Avoid permitting yourself to be so busy that there is no time to think. Take time each day for your mental expansion.

Think clearly and constructively. Take a good look at your life. Where are you going? What areas of your life need improvement? What do you want to accomplish? Learn to think and you will have your answers. Then God will give you constructive ideas to take you to the place of your vision.

Think over what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything. (II Timothy 2:7)

Your Divine Plan

By Rev. Joyce Kramer

Transcript of a radio broadcast by Rev. Joyce Kramer, January 21, 2014.

What do you want out of life? Do you know? Few people have any real concrete picture of just what they want out of life. Consequently it seems that they live at the mercy of someone or something other than themselves. Thus we have the belief that we are the victim of things over which we have little or no control.

Each and every person is created with the ability and the power to determine his own future. Man is not at the whim of fate, luck, or chance. Neither is he created to be at the mercy of another person [ . . .]

The Joyce Kramer Ministries logo depicts a dogwood tree planted across the entrance to the church that Rev. Kramer founded in Virginia Beach. Transplanted from her brother’s property in Charlottesville, for eighteen months the tree seemed nothing more than a lifeless stick in the ground. Finally, on a Wednesday afternoon, the decision was made to dig it up, but the lawn maintenance man did not have a shovel with him. The next week, he said, he would come back and discard the dead tree. But that Sunday when Rev. Kramer arrived at church, she noticed a single leaf had appeared on the otherwise barren stick. They left the tree in place, and it grew into one of the most beautiful on the property. This flowering dogwood represents the message of Joyce Kramer Ministries: Growth is always possible; never give up.
