Take a Risk...to BE FREE!!

How to Excel in Love

(Excel the Dream)
Keith A. Craft
March 5 & 6, 2016
All scriptures are New King James Version unless otherwise noted.

2 Corinthians 8:7 NIV

Excel: to SOAR beyond our ordinary into Gods EXTRAordinary and receive good things which God has prepared
for those that love him.

Surpass past limitations

Overtake the ordinary with the Extravagant
Abound in good things
Receive and Release...by the power of the Holy Spirit

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool.

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out for another is to risk involvement.
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self.
To place ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk being called naive.
To love is to risk not being loved in return.
To live is to risk dying.
To hope is to risk despair.
To try is to risk failure.
But risk must be taken, because the greatest
hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing,
is nothing, and becomes nothing.
They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they
cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live.
Chained by their certitude, they are slaves; they have
forfeited their freedom.
Only a person who risks is truly free.

How to Excel in Love

Dont forget to SPRING FORWARD!

Big Thought:
When you Excel in Love, you will Excel in Life!

Set your clocks ahead 1 hour

Excelling in love means: raising the needs and desires

of another to the level of your own. It involves empathy,
generosity, unselfishness, mercy, compassion and most
importantly, ACTION. In the end, love is more than a
feeling, it is a motivated action on behalf of another.
John 13:34-35
