Daily Blessings

Self-image

I believe in good, in success, and in myself, for God is my constant guide and the source of all my good to come.

Success breeds success, but what if you feel unsuccessful in any area of living? You must consider your self-image. Do you believe that it is impossible for you to be successful? Do you think you are limited by other people, by circumstances, by the events of the past? You are not bound by these things. Begin to believe that you are not!

Picture yourself as a successful individual doing whatever needs to be done by you. The picture of success that you envision will draw to you success. Now you are on the right path. Keep always in mind the truth that God is working through you to be a special blessing to the world.

Know that God wills success for all of us. Your true success is in reality glorifying God. No one can make us successful except ourselves as we draw upon the fountainhead of the divine within. We choose our destiny by that in which we believe.

For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:10)

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.
