I was just thinking about when I first wrote my book. I am so proud of this achievement because, at one time in my life, it was just a dream that I never thought I would see come true. The day I held my dream in my hands brought tears to my eyes. It is something I will always remember. I will have the opportunity to tell my grandson about it. Every time I look at it, my heart fills with joy and happiness. Seeing my dreams come true is such a marvelous miracle. Working on my second book has been a challenge, but I know I will eventually finish it. I am in no hurry because I want it to be perfect. For everyone who has a dream, don’t give up on it, and don’t give up on yourself.

My book can be found on Amazon.com

As always, thank you for joining me on my journey with Food for the Soul.

Super easy to remember!

Affirmations are like tiny sweets for the soul. They give the boost of positivity, strength, and support that we need in times of struggle and when we want to feel better.

On this blog, I’ve tried to cover every affirmation topic under the sun. But sometimes, it’s the short and simple affirmations that work wonders.

I do prefer shorter affirmations a lot of times because they’re so easy to remember and keep repeating. They’re the words I can imagine up on my wall or on a sticker at the back of my phone – always there to sprinkle a bit of light.

Affirmations, whether short or long, are powerful. These are some of the benefits that have shown up in studies on affirmations.

The regular practice of affirmations leads to,

1. Reduction in harmful stress
2. Increases openness to adopt healthier habits
3. Less worrying and rumination
4. Increase in resilience
5. Control self-sabotaging thoughts and speech, shaping a positive self-talk
6. Better mood
7. Higher self-esteem

I hope that today you will find affirmations that connect to your soul. Whichever phase you are in your life, with these affirmations you will find solace and the right kind of positivity.

G. Campbell Morgan understood the unity and connectedness of every part of the Bible, sharing this understanding through his Analyzed Bible. “Telescopic” in nature, his study focused on the structure of the Bible in broad strokes, leaving others to plumb the depths of individual verses and chapters.

Under Campbell’s expert guidance, readers can walk through this soaring panorama of Scripture, gaining the overall contextual understanding of each book’s unique place in the whole of Scripture. Each analysis begins with a clearly charted outline, followed by further detail and discussion of the major conceptual divisions contained within that section.

The Analyzed Bible study system lays a solid foundation to understand how the beautiful redemption story of Scripture unfolds. It sets the perfect stage for later study by providing the users a deep grasp of the scope, context, content, and outline of the Bible as a whole.

WHO IS GEORGE CAMPBELL MORGAN?

George Campbell Morgan (1863 – 1945) pastored Westminster Chapel in London from 1904 to 1919, and again from 1933 to 1943 where he mentored Martyn Lloyd-Jones, who would succeed him in the Westminster pulpit.

Morgan had no formal training for ministry, but his commitment to study and teaching of the Word led to his popularity, with thousands in attendance at his weekly Bible classes. In his many trips from his native England to America, Morgan was invited to lecture at Moody Bible Institute and teach at Biola. In 1902 he was given a Doctor of Divinity degree by the Chicago Theological Seminary.
