The Law
Posted in Business, Motivational, Relationships, Spiritual
We have laws…lots of them, and breaking the law brings consequences, as we all know. Here are a few laws you may have heard of, and a few that you have not heard before:
The Law of Love: Love endures through time, conquers your fears, and covers a multitude of sins. There is no law against love!
The Law of Fear: Fear is false evidence appearing real. Don’t let it rule your life and derail you from peace and happiness.
The Law of Feelings: Feelings matter, but feelings can and will change. Don’t let them make your decisions.
The Law of Forgiveness: Forgiving someone for a wrong is the key to moving forward in your relationships, and only you can unlock the cage of bitterness, rage, and revenge that unforgiveness creates.
The Law of Listening: If you fail to listen, you are destined to fail.
The Law of Speaking: Think before you speak. Once the words are spoken aloud you can never retract them and the damage they do may be catastrophic. Your words will either hurt or heal.
The Law of Laughter: Laughter is good medicine. Use it liberally.
The Law of Success: Success is never owned. It is rented, and the rent is due every day.
The Law of Failure: Failure isn’t fatal unless you give up. Your breakthrough requires you press through.
The Law of Stupidity: Life is harder when you’re stupid. Learn the lesson the first time.
The Law of Truth: Truth always comes out in the end. There is your truth, my truth, and THE truth. It is up to each of us to find THE truth.
The Law of Lies: Half truths and white lies are still lies. Don’t fall for them.
The Law of Money: Live within your means. Invest and save. Don’t worship money, it isn’t God.
The Law of Encouragement: Everyone has issues. Be an encourager. You never know how a kind word may help someone who is battling depression or having suicidal thoughts.
The Law of Issues: Everyone has issues, but some people have “ISSUES.” Be careful that you don’t get invited to join their circus. Misery loves company and evil company corrupts good behavior. You may have to encourage them from a distance.
The Law of Friendship: There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. Nurture those friendships. They are more valuable than gold.
The Law of Learning: We are students all our lives. None of us, even the experts, know it all.
The Law of Bullying: A bully will eventually find someone who stands up to him and puts him in his place.
The Law of Teaching: To be a great teacher, you have to give all that you have to all that you serve with humility, dedication, and a commitment to excellence.
The Law of Leadership: Great leaders have the ability to inspire others to greatness. They make the hard decisions and empower people to make decisions on their own. They lead by serving and have an unwavering focus on the goal at hand.
The Law of Power: Power that you abuse, you lose.
The Law of Opportunity: When opportunity knocks, if you don’t answer it, it doesn’t disappear; it simply moves on to find someone who is willing to open the door.
The Law of Purpose: Finding your purpose in life is the one thing that you have to find for yourself. Other people can help you identify it, but it is up to you to claim it and walk it out.
The Law of Peace: There are two types of peace: internal and external. It is possible to have internal peace in the midst of chaos, but that requires faith in something greater than yourself.
The Law of Freedom: Freedom isn’t free. It is paid for with blood, sweat, and tears. Protect your freedom because once you lose it, it may be difficult if not impossible to restore it.
Shalom!
