Love means something different to each of us, but what is it really and why does it matter? On Spoken Word by Joshua T Berglan "Love", we have a very different conversation about the most powerful Force in the Universe.

The Live Mana Worldwide Foundation presents Thrive Recuse, A LIVE multimedia telethon. Thrive Rescue is an international anti-trafficking organization working to provide effective and restorative aftercare for survivors of child trafficking and exploitation through family-style residential aftercare and prevention programs. The trafficking and exploitation of children is a global injustice that reaches and affects the most vulnerable of all countries. We also seek to provide preventative services and connect with local communities through our hunger relief program. For Thrive Rescue, our part to play in this global injustice not only seeks to rescue and restore survivors but to empower and equip abolitionists to do the same through our anti-trafficking field training, Thrive Justice School. We believe that we were all meant to not just survive in life, but to Thrive! https://thriverescue.givingfuel.com/monthly-donations ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SNW1ggCjeg

My name is Joshua T Berglan and welcome to Gratitude:UnFiltered AM "Kingdom Come"..... You Bring God’s Kingdom To Earth What exactly is a kingdom? The classic definition is “the territory subject to the rule of a king.” But there is another definition equally as operative in the Greek for the word basileia, which is used in the biblical phrase “the kingdom of Heaven.” It is a “royal power, kingship, and dominion not to be confused with an actual kingdom but rather the right or authority to rule over a kingdom.” In other words, a kingdom isn’t necessarily a tract of land or a collection of cities. It is a sphere of influence under the authority of a sole ruler. When Jesus was brought before Pilate, just before His crucifixion, Pilate asked Him if He was indeed the King of the Jews. Jesus told him, My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this realm. — John 18:36 Christ’s kingdom is one of influence and authority, not borders and cities. Another telling characteristic comes from Paul’s assertion that the kingdom of God does not consist in words but in power. — 1 Corinthians 4:20 The proof of His kingdom doesn’t come on Sunday morning when the congregation is watching. It comes during the week when you’re alone. It’s not about how loudly it’s declared, but how soundly it’s lived. It’s easy to make a show of it through forceful words, but the real measure comes in the quiet times. When transgression takes hold, discord sets in, discontent reigns, patience evaporates, and every other fruit of the Spirit withers, the kingdom of heaven is not present. Even so, it is still near. It’s just a matter of changing our mind and renewing our spirit. The way we live indicates whether we are abiding in His kingdom. Paul encouraged believers to walk in a manner worthy of the God who calls you into His own kingdom and glory. — 1 Thessalonians 2:12 He goes on to say that we do this by receiving His word. This evidence that we have received it comes when it “performs its work” in us. Its work is changing our minds. When our minds change, aligning with His truth, it changes everything – the way we think, speak, and act. This enables us to spread His kingdom by expanding His influence. This is not a call to abandon the temporary because of the eternal. In fact, just the opposite. Those with an eternal view are far more suited to steward the temporary. We just understand that there is more than what we can touch, see, and hear. We build our lives on more than the earth on which we live; we build it on an unshakeable foundation. God’s kingdom is here and it’s for you. You n ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLDMpgH369U
