Dolores O'Riordan - Human spirit - LIVE in Mannheim
16.11.07 Mannheim/ Alte Feuerwache
Human Spirit seems like a noble focus for the day.
Good Wednesday, October 7, 2020 morning my friend COL Mikel J. Burroughs
Quotes I appreciate
1. Roger Bannister 'The human spirit is indomitable. No one can ever say you must not run faster than this or jump higher than that. There will never be a time when the human spirit will not be able to better existing records.'
2. Chester Himes 'There is an indomitable quality within the human spirit that cannot be destroyed; a face deep within the human personality that is impregnable to all assaults.'
3. Ronald Reagan 'There are no constraints on the human mind, no walls around the human spirit, no barriers to our progress except those we ourselves erect.'
4. Corrie Ten Boom 'The human spirit fails, except when the Holy Spirit fills.'
5. C. S. Lewis 'The human spirit will not even begin to try to surrender self-will as long as all seems to be well with it. Now error and sin both have this property, that the deeper they are the less their victim suspects their existence; they are masked evil. Pain is unmasked, unmistakable evil; every man knows that something is wrong when he is being hurt.'
Scriptures:
a. 1 John 4:1-2 ESV 'Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,'
b. Zechariah 12:1 ESV 'The oracle of the word of the LORD concerning Israel: Thus declares the LORD, who stretched out the heavens and founded the earth and formed the spirit of man within him:'
c. Proverbs 20:27 ESV 'The spirit of man is the lamp of the LORD, searching all his innermost parts.'
d. Proverbs 18:14 ESV 'The spirit of a man can endure his sickness, but as for a broken spirit who can bear it?"
e. Psalm 8: 4-8 ESV "What is man that You take thought of him, and the son of man that You care for him? Yet You have made him a little lower than God, and You crown him with glory and majesty!
You make him to rule over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet,
All sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, the birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea,
whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
f. Psalm 51:10-12 Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads this prayer has a healthy spirit/soul along with their family members. I pray dear LORD for the extended family members and friends of ours who are broken-hearted from loss or separation. Do a mighty work of restoration of relationships dear LORD. 'The spirit of a man can endure his sickness, but as for a broken spirit who can endure? [Proverbs 18:14 ESV]
LORD I thank YOU for sanctification which is your method of perfecting our soul and spirit. Thank YOU for YOUR perfect timing in all things. I am grateful for the renewing of the mind of each one of us who are YOUR adopted children dear Lord. ‘Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit.’ [Psalm 51:10-12 ESV]
I pray for the policemen, state and federal agents in this nation as well as in Canada, Mexico, Europe, India, Philippines, South Korea, Japan Australia, New Zealand and other relatively free nations and their loved ones. LORD I pray that YOU bless each one of these individuals with wisdom and discernment to do their jobs including family members at home. I pray for an increase of justice for the guilty and mercy for those abused.
I lift the teachers and parents who are doing their best to educate each child in actual school rooms, virtual school and home school. I pray that YOU renew the mind of YOUR own and bless the children with an optimistic spirit and endurance to finish their schooling.
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Wednesday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Thursday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ

"The human spirit is large and in charge, no matter what it's face with. May we continue to bring out the very best in all of us through our human spirt and soul. May we always encourage as individuals and leaders the concept of wholeness thinking, human creativity, and adaptive problem-solving by focusing on the human development and human spirit and soul of those we come in contact with, those we lead, and those we influence; may you always caring the positive attitude that the human spirit brings out in all of us; may you endeavor to keep your personal health at its very best during these trying and uncertain times; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy. Always Welcome the Human spirit and soul." - COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Good morning Mikel and my friends on RallyPoint! Great topic today. I immediately thought about human spirit and our quest for meaning which made me think about Victor Frankl.
"Dostoevski said once, "There is only one thing that I dread: not to be worthy of my sufferings." These words frequently came to my mind after I became acquainted with those martyrs whose behavior in camp, whose suffering and death, bore witness to the fact that the last inner freedom cannot be lost. It can be said that they were worthy of their sufferings; the way they bore their suffering was a genuine inner achievement. It is this spiritual freedom-which cannot be taken away-that makes life meaningful and purposeful.”
― Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning
I wish you all a safe and happy day!

I expect you are aware that the essential nature of each human being is our soul/spirit and that our soul/spirit has been created as an imperfect image of the perfect Spirit of the LORD. The Lord is Spirit in HIS essence. Jesus the Christ took on additional nature when HE became incarnate. Only the souls of the elect of God are being sanctified into the perfect reflection for us uniquely to be a member of the Body/Bride of Christ. 'The spirit of man is the lamp of the LORD, searching all his innermost parts.' [Proverbs 20:27] my brother-in-Christ SGT (Join to see).

'The spirit of a man can endure his sickness, but as for a broken spirit who can endure? [Proverbs 18:14 ESV]

Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit.’ [Psalm 51:10-12 ESV]
