Eze 11:16 “Therefore say, “Thus says the Lord God: “Although I have cast them far off among the Gentiles, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet I shall be a little sanctuary for them in the countries where they have gone.” This has not happened when he said this. He says I have driven them far off among the gentiles, but I’m going to bring them home. “As a shepherd seeks out his flock on the day he is among the scattered sheep, so will I seek out my sheep and deliver them from all the places where they were scattered on a cloudy and dark day.” Who said this? Sound familiar? But this was not the Messiah; this is His Father in Eze 24:12 when He made his statement. So when the Messiah shows up on the scene a thousand years later, what happens? He says the same thing.

You see when I begin to read the front of the book, I believed to myself wait a minute, case the New Testament concealed and when I commence to read the back of the book I only say wait a minute, this is the Old Testament revealed. I’m needs to understand what the Sabbath day is all about. I simply need to read the front with the book to get the definitions so I could understand when Jesus say “I came for My lost sheep”. I’ll have the ability to know what He is talking about.

So who is the Great Shepherd? We know that’s the Messiah. So now as we move through this informative article and discover all of these things that our bible is discussing, let us find out the characteristics the Hebrews Scriptures say of the House of Judah. This is astounding when you look at all of the scriptures about the House of Judah which are the characteristics of our southern brother:

1. They have the Law of God (Gen 49:10), 2. They will reject the Messiah. 3. They did not lose their Identity because they came back after the captivity. 4. They are called those that are near (Dan. 9:7)

I’m Jim Staley. It is my heart’s desire that you will be challenged and transformed through the materials and resources that are in this article. Whether its about Jewish holidays, the sabbath day, or the meaning of Easter, we want you to know the truth because the truth will only do one thing!

For example, on some of my early heart walks I was staring at my profession as my intention simply because I was experiencing a lot of tension and worry whenever I went to go to work. Throughout the heart walk I was then lead to a rock outcrop in the middle of a small stream. And also the clear water was flowing gently over the bedrock.

And what I then got to witness in this was natural flowing movements. That with my ideal profession, it might gently move.

So to integrate this into my life, the most apparent step to do was to notice whenever I would get stressed and clunky at work. Then I would stop. Pull in a few deep breaths. Let go of all stress in my system and mind after which get back into the natural movement again by using flowing movements. Literally to move my hands whilst typing so that they flowed along the keyboard. Or if I used to be walking right into a meeting and felt stressed, I would again consciously aim to walk in a way that flowed. Bringing flow into my work.

However, I also got to witness that I was usually not in the natural movement with Engineering. That it felt much more like being a square peg within a round hole and that it just was not flowing. So after seven years at University and 5 years operating as an Engineer, it grew to become distinct that I wasn’t within your flow and that something needed to alter.

To chop a long story short, I found a sense of relaxation and ended up quitting Engineering. Then the pull was to cycle along Europe on a bicycle. From Budapest in Hungary to Paris. This was a 4,000 km rite of passage within eleven nations and seven months. The first half of my trip was symbolic of cycling from this from Engineering. And the second half was biking towards my intended lifestyle purpose which was in the flow. And on the edge of a mountain in the middle of France surrounded by the wilderness I then got to see that natural therapy was what I am to be on this planet to complete. That this was my flow.

As you can most likely picture it has taken lots of will, perseverance and courage to deliver about this transformation. An almost 180 degree shift to integrate the insight of movement into my career that day from viewing the water gently moving along the bedrock.

After being married to our grandfather for over sixty years, you can say that Julia had a fully blessed life. She lovingly brought up all of us, and was constantly at our side when we needed her. So even though it was somehow expected that she would soon be departing this life, it was still a painful time for the family.

For those who have suffered losing a loved one, they know that only the best memorial and funeral service is satisfactory. We wished to give our grandmother a truly heartfelt funeral to respect her family and friends’ time to grieve, though we likewise wished to celebrate her life in a sacred manner. We asked for the aid of professionals to set up the funeral as we were too overwhelmed to do so.

From the wake service to the burial arrangement, everything was taken care of smoothly and promptly. The picked out coffin looked simple yet fine, and the flowers were tastefully arranged. Also, the guests were able to come to the burial site without hassle because of the pre-arranged transportation service.

As the whole family was mourning, it was a smart choice to employ the services of funeral directors. Although we knew we could have organized it ourselves, we were also aware that professionals would be able to do it better.

And although we were able to keep the atmosphere of respect and solemnity at all times, there were nevertheless occasions that the entire room became filled with laughter and happiness. We wouldn’t want it any other way.

Funerals are a commemoration of a departed loved one’s life, according to how other people view it. Although it is hard, they merely want to entertain joyful memories during the painful time as much as possible. Although the anguish of losing a beloved family member or friend is overwhelming, it is still essential to give way to happy memories.

Case in point while looking through articles on Yahoo, I recently read an uber-famous pop star state that she doesn’t have any desire to be a role-model for kids and that she just needs to make music. And she is not alone in this attitude. In fact many highly influential artists share her perspective.

It’s simply no secret that kids look up the most popular artists of the day and often attempt to emulate those artists in style and so on. The problem that I sometimes have with that attitude is that these artists are role-models to our children, whether they like it or not, whether they accept it or not.

Therefore for so many artists try to cash in on our kids but then simply reject any responsibility towards the kind of art they produce saddens me. It’s not that I don’t respect an individuals right to create whatever art they so choose, I do. As a lover of art I have no desire to limit any artist in their creative endeavors, but as the saying goes “with great power comes great responsibility” and I think too many artists have chosen to forget or ignore this creed.

To conclude, I guess I just wish more popular artists of our time would not only succeed in the marketplace but would embrace their status as role models as well and step up to the plate. That is my passion for art in a nut shell.

Here’s my take on this….

To abandon a comfortable lifestyle that isn’t deeply fulfilling is to abandon nothing. There’s nothing of real substance there to protect. An income, a car, a house, or a lifestyle are not worth protecting if the cost of such protection is your own fulfillment and happiness. People who achieve some of the external trappings of success without internal fulfillment are only living an illusion when they tell themselves they have something of value to protect. In most cases the feeling that there’s something to protect is just an excuse used to avoid facing the real fear – that maybe all this stuff isn’t really worth anything compared to what’s being lost… that maybe I should be living more boldly and not be so concerned about what happens to all my stuff.

I currently have some material stuff in my life. I have a business, computers, a car that’s fully paid for, and my wife and I are closing escrow on a new home we’ve bought. But that’s all just stuff. It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t have any real value. I’d gladly give it all up and live in a shack if that was the price I’d have to pay to live my mission. I want my life to have had more value than just acquiring stuff and living comfortably. I may die rich, or I may die broke. But I won’t die with my music still in me.

After all, why are we here? Is it to acquire stuff, live a comfortable lifestyle, make our families as comfortable as possible, and then die? Whether there’s an afterlife or not, one thing is clear – we can’t take any of that stuff with us. Our comfortable lifestyle has no power to endure.

And here’s the worst part. While you’re working so hard to acquire and protect all that stuff, you could die unexpectedly. You might die today. You might die tomorrow. Maybe you won’t die for another 70 years. Maybe your consciousness will be transferred into an android body a few decades from now, but you could still be destroyed in an accident, even if you make a backup of yourself. At least in the present, you’re still vulnerable. Death happens to people every day. 150,000+ people died from the quake and tsunami in Southeast Asia. How many of them knew at the beginning of December 2004 that they only had a few weeks left to live? And look what happened to all the stuff those people acquired – destroyed. Fisherman or tourist – it doesn’t matter. We all end up the same way.

So what is the point of a life dedicated to the acquisition and protection of stuff? All of your money and possessions can be taken away from you by forces outside your control. No matter how many asset protection techniques you apply, you can never guarantee full security of your stuff. It’s perpetually vulnerable. There can be no true security then in a life based on the acquisition and protection of stuff.

So what have you got to lose? What are you truly risking if you go after your dreams? If your current lifestyle is unfulfilling, then you’re starting broke, no matter how much money you have. It doesn’t matter if you start with $0 or $1 million. You have nothing to lose either way. Money and material assets are just resources to use while you’re here – you can’t take them with you. You’re only a temporary steward of the money and possessions that pass through your life. So when you risk money, you don’t risk anything of any enduring value. Earn money, lose money, invest money. But don’t make material objects more important than your own fulfillment and happiness.

If you’re sitting behind a desk working at a job you hate in order to protect your current lifestyle, you are protecting nothing. Isn’t there a part of you, deep inside, that wants to just walk away from all of that junk and start really living? Can you feel how empty and hollow your days are, how devoid of meaning? Have you forgotten what it’s like to really live a day that fulfills you deeply as a human being? Look around your home at all your stuff. Recognize that in the long run, it will all eventually end up as dust. None of it will endure. It’s all temporary. Your house will eventually crumble. Your car will wind up in a junkyard. You cannot permanently keep any of this stuff. Eventually you’re going to lose it all. Or it will lose you.

So what kind of life is that – one that’s dedicated to the guarding of dust? Is that what you want your life to be about? If you feel there’s any purpose to your existence as a human being, then is this it?

Life is just too precious to waste. If you are spending your days working at a job that isn’t deeply fulfilling to you, then you’re spending your days guarding dust. There’s no real value there. Stuff cannot fulfill you. Ultimately it will only distract you from living on purpose.

What does it mean to really live? Deep down, you already have a sense of the direction where this answer lies for you. Ultimately, it’s a choice. You’re totally free to live the kind of life you want. But you’ll know you’re really living when you would live pretty much the same way even if you knew you only had 18 months left. If you would make some big changes in your life upon learning that you only had 18 months to live, then why not make those changes now? Someone reading this blog entry probably has less than 18 months to live. Maybe it’s you.

Live for what is real to you. Live for what truly matters to you.

What matters to me – what is real to me – is inspiring and helping people. Directly or indirectly, whenever I’m able to help someone solve a really tough problem or to motivate someone to finally push past a big obstacle, that is something I find tremendously fulfilling. And the fulfillment I get from doing this is so great that it trumps all the external stuff. It doesn’t matter how much money I make. It doesn’t matter if people reject my ideas or poke fun at what I enjoy doing. This blog entry may be read by over 1000 people, but it may be such that the ideas within are only able to help one person in a very small way. The other 999 may conclude I’m nuts and unsubscribe. And that’s fine. It’s that one person I’m writing for.

But at the same time, starting from the point of spending each day doing something that fulfills me, I’m building this work into a business that can support and sustain me and my family. This will ultimately include paid speaking engagements, and information products like books and audio programs. So I’m starting with doing what I love and building it into a source of income. The more money the business generates, the more people I’m ultimately able to reach. So making money is aligned with my own personal fulfillment – they aren’t at odds with each other. If you do what you love, then you can surely find a way to turn it into an income stream – then the more money you make, the more you expand your capacity to continue doing what you love in bigger and bigger ways.

Taking what you love to do and turning it into a source of income, either as an employee or an entrepreneur, seems hard to resist. If you’re going to spend so much time working to make money, why not make that money in the pursuit of your dreams instead of in the protection of dust?

What does your current to do list look like? Is it filled with tasks that aren’t even real to you? Are you typing stuff that doesn’t matter, going to soulless meetings, shuffling papers and filling out forms to appease computers, while sitting in a Dilbert-style cage all day? Why do you continue to choose that life each day? You’re always free to stop at any time. You make the rules.

What percentage of the tasks on your to do list will fulfill you deeply to do them? What kind of to do list would be real to you? What items might it contain? Compose a new piece of music. Write something inspiring and share it with others. Give your spouse a massage. Exercise. Play with your kids. Make a snowman in Las Vegas (my wife did this one yesterday). Clear out some clutter. Read a really great book. Audition for a local play. Start your own business. Tell your boss, “Talk to the hand. I don’t do soulless work anymore.” Do something that leaves you feeling at the end of the day that you really contributed the best of yourself. Don’t die with your music still in you.

Three things: 1) Working on your needs, 2) Working on other people needs, 3) Working on other people’s purposes.

If you don’t know your purpose, the limit of the work you do for yourself will be stuck at the level of need, which at best has the potential to grow into greed. Not particularly fulfilling spending your whole working life this way… Try it yourself for a few decades if you don’t believe me, and then look at the passionless shell that stares back at you from your mirror.

As you work with/for other people, most likely you’ll be putting lots of effort into satisfying other people’s needs and greeds: your boss, your customers, your company’s investors, etc. Even in your free time, you’ll be working to fulfill the desires of advertisers who want you to watch TV and buy stuff. Again, not particularly satisfying, although you may be thrown a few bones by your benefactors, such as the “gift” of working on some interesting projects. This kind of life will ultimately make you want to stand up and shout, “What exactly is the point of all of this?” But if you actually do that, you’ll only get blank stares in return. There is no point.

Now if you’re very lucky, you may get the chance to work for someone or some organization which is itself focused on achieving a conscious purpose. However, there’s no telling what that purpose might be. If you don’t know your own purpose, you can’t consciously choose to work for someone whose purpose aligns with yours except by accident or chance, and the odds of alignment are low. So there’s a good chance you’ll be working hard to achieve a purpose you don’t agree with. For example, if you join the military, you may be put to use to achieve some big purpose, but what exactly will it be? Most likely, in such situations you’ll be given a purpose to achieve that isn’t what you’d choose consciously for yourself. Fulfilling to spend your whole life this way? Not likely, but it’s at least a decent path for people who don’t like to think much – others will take care of all the thinking for you (and benefit greatly from all your thoughtless doing).

So if you don’t know your purpose in life, what kind of life will you end up living? I’ll sum it up with one word: owned (or if you’re a tremendous nerd, pwned). Your life is owned by others – their needs, their goals, their purposes. Why? Because if you don’t know your purpose, others will put you to good use achieving theirs. Advertisers spend billions every year to get you to take some small action. The company you work for or the customers you serve – they want to own you too. And how can you say no? You don’t have a better option, do you? Might as well get a job and buy stuff, make some customers happy along the way, and die quietly. That’s what others have planned for you. That seems to be what everyone else is doing. Might as well jump on the same bandwagon… seems safe enough.

Is that the plan you wish to follow?

Yes? Great… here’s a Scooby Snack. End of blog entry.

Hmmm… still reading, eh? Ok, welcome to the super secret society for purposeful living. Shhhh….

If you happen to be someone who’s consciously aware of your purpose in life, then you already know what’s missing from the above – freedom. When you don’t choose your own purpose, a purpose will be given to you by others. You give up your freedom. Sure you still maintain the illusion of freedom. You can decide the low level actions you take each day. But you’ve lost the greatest freedom – the ability to choose your own answer to the question, “What is the meaning of my life?” If you let someone else answer this question for you, then you’re owned. And it may not even be a single person giving you that answer. Most likely it’s a collection of many sources: advertisers, employers, coworkers, friends, family, social pressures, etc. Each contributes a small piece to your answer. But because there are so many contributors, the answer that comes out is fuzzy and complicated. So you end up living a fuzzy, complicated life crafted by third-party biographers, many of which you’ve never met.

On the other hand, when you know your purpose and live it consciously each day, you’re free. No one else owns you. Whether you run your own business or work for someone else, you always see yourself as self-employed. You lead your own life, and although others may hold formal authority over you in some situations, you focus on what you can control and don’t whine about what you can’t, and in so doing, your influence expands to the point that you become a leader no matter what your formal position. Your leadership comes from knowing your purpose. While your circumstances will change, your inner compass is constant. You could be caught in a sea of external chaos, yet you’re always steering a clear straight-ahead course, which allows you to feel certain when no one else can. It doesn’t matter what position you hold. When you live your purpose, you become a leader. When you don’t live your purpose, you become property.

When you choose the kind of work you do, you consciously choose what aligns with your purpose. Every day your actions are your answer to the question, “What is the meaning of my life?” You’ll still be bombarded by messages from others who want to own you in some way, but those influences will become harmless background noise, unable to sway you. Whatever happens out there, it’s like the waves tossing around on a stormy sea while you’re 1000 ft below the surface, where the water is calm. By knowing your purpose, you begin living on a deeper level where surface happenings like corporate politics can’t knock you around. Your purpose provides unshakable stability and security.

If you don’t live on purpose, then you don’t even know how to set goals. Even when you think you’re being proactive, where are your goals really coming from? Ultimately, they’ll come from your past conditioning, which means they’re coming from others. You set a goal to buy a new house or a new car, but if those goals aren’t driven by your own conscious purpose, then they’re really the bank’s and the car dealer’s goals for you, both of which are spending lots of money to get you to adopt them. Even if you want to advance in your career and make more money, there are many who want you to achieve that goal too, especially since it will allow you to spend more money and do more productive work. So whose goals are you working so hard to achieve? Sure you think you want all those things. You’ve been taught to want them by your owners.

To break free of working on your owners’ goals, you have to know your own purpose. And this means you have to empty your head of all your owners’ thoughts and conditioning and get deep down to 1000 ft below sea level, where your thoughts are clear and calm, where you once again remember who you really are. At that level all the external fluff fades, and you can hear yourself clearly. You have to squeeze your brain like a sponge to get all those owners’ voices out. The owners’ voices are the ones that make you feel weaker and more afraid. Once you go deep enough though, your own voice will begin to reassert itself. You’ll remember what you’re here to do, and you’ll recall the state of passion that drives you to do it.

After that, the hard part is listening to this inner voice and trusting it. It’s so easy to trust your owners because they seem so certain, and there are so many of them. Your inner voice is much quieter, but if you let it drive you instead of the external world, you’ll come to know your purpose, and your life will become immensely fulfilling. You’ll finally be free.

What exactly are temptations? Based on the Bible, temptations are tests or trials given to us for us to do evil thus sin against God.

Now don’t avoid Him just because He gives you a bit of challenges here and there. Keep in mind, this is a part of His test. God is testing us on how faithful we are to Him no matter what kind of temptation comes our way.

Avoid and withstand them using the God’s truth.

Focus yourself in other positive things like praying and going to church. Praying enables us to concentrate more in the good things in life. And don’t forget to repent if you have already fallen to temptation. Know how to ask forgiveness wholeheartedly. Not like asking for forgiveness now then again you’ll just repeat exactly the same thing afterwards.
