About this ebook
Fountain Hendricks
Fountain Hendricks was born in Chicago, IL. He was raised in a Christian house-hold. He was a young man driven by worldly morality which prevented him from living underneath the power of the Holy Ghost. Through experience and many failures he has gained understanding and knowledge on how to exhibit Godly character. Going to church became a ritual for him but God never became the center focus of his life until he had a "Damascus" moment in his mid-twenties. The Lord spoke to Fountain in a loud voice through his transition of condition. After being isolated from love ones, betrayed by those whom he was familiar with and being separated from everything that was common he discovered that God allowed this to happen for a reason. The Lord was calling Fountain out of deception and darkness to live in the truth and light of holiness. Fountain realized that he was serving God under the influence of religion, tradition and commonality which empowered him to inherit misfortune but the Lord gave him clarity, understanding and great wisdom. This experience allowed him to see that "Becoming holy" is the difference between practicing Christian ethics and Christian character. Becoming holy has allowed him to live a joyful, purposeful, exciting and influential life. The Lord has placed him in a position to teach and nurture others on how to live a life, modeling Jesus internally and externally.

Why I Wrote this Book
Introduction
About the Author
Why I Wrote this Book
I wrote this book to provide an instrument of wise inspiration for the world. Nothing changes in the world until one receives inspiration. Inspiration leads to enlightenment. Enlightenment uncovers illumination. Illumination is the stepping stone to understanding and understanding provokes action. You have greatness inside of you. My assignment is to turn on the lamp inside of you so you will be able to see it and believe it! You cannot have a new day, a new week, a new month without a new mind.
Introduction
According to Proverbs 4:23 our thoughts run our life. Our thought life is the center of who we are. The mind is like a garden. Flowers or weeds have the ability to grow in a garden. The same way we can care for a garden should be the same way we care for our mind. Our mind is an open field. Inspirational thoughts and depressing thoughts have the ability to fill and cultivate our mind which will produce our behavior on the earth. Your mind will determine what type of person you are in the eyesight of God. This book will equip you to have the right mindset in order to live the right life.
Every thought in this book is inspirational. Every phrase will cause you to look at life through the lens of wisdom. This book was written for the people who desire to fill their mind with uplifting and inspirational phrases that will keep them focus on what’s pure, innovative, encouraging and empowering. However a man thinks will determine who he is. Proverbs 23:7 says For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee
.
Each of us is literally what we think, our character being the complete sum of all our thoughts.
- James Allen
