Eric’s Life Lesson # 162: “I am learning to live in the NOW.” (Yesterday is gone and by the time tomorrow gets here it is today.)
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added… Continue reading
Eric’s Life Lesson # 161: “All of the Lord’s behavioral expectations for me are designed to enable me to run the race of life at peak performance.”
“Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I… Continue reading
Eric’s Life Lesson # 160: “The more I live to please Jesus, the less I live to please myself.” (Amazingly this results in far more pleasure than any other lifestyle!)

Eric’s Life Lesson # 159: “”My perception of the “Acts” of God is determined by how well I know the “Ways” of God.”
“He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.” (Psalm 103:7 NKJV) “Where is your father?” they asked. Jesus answered, “Since you don’t know who I am, you don’t know who my Father is. If you knew me, you would also know my Father.” (John 8:19 NLT) “Jesus replied, “Philip,… Continue reading
Eric’s Life Lesson # 158: “It’s as easy as A, B, C.”
After publishing yesterday’s blog, in which I made available the impartation of joy, youth, and peace, the Spirit impressed upon my heart that someone out there needs to take a step back and receive a more basic gift first. You see, without a relationship with Jesus these other blessings will be very limited in their… Continue reading
Eric’s Life Lesson # 157: “Tri – Life Impartation”
Having just looked at “Refirement”, I believe the timing is right to offer the “Tri – Life Impartation” to those ready to receive. The Lord has commissioned me to impart youth, joy, and peace to the Body of Christ. I am imparting them to you as “Kingdom Seeds” with the reminder that as Kingdom co… Continue reading
