Friday Shoot-out - Power

Where do I get my power? I believe that all things are possible through Jesus Christ. He created the earth. It is His light and glory that sustains it. We gain power, literally, through Him. He has blessed me with all of the things on this earth that sustain me. If I have power, it is through Him.


I believe that we all have the Light of Christ within us when we are born.


Families are put on earth for a purpose, foreordained to a Heavenly mission.

God is aware of each individual on earth and even earth's tiniest creatures.

We have enjoyment on earth because He created the beautiful world around us for that purpose.

His world is a world of perfect balance. We humans, with our supposed "power", often set out to destroy it.

May we all, together, accept one another as brothers and sisters of a Heavenly Father. If we do, it will empower the whole world and everyone in it.
