Ever feel overwhelmed by your bills?

"Does the way seem a stony one?
Not one stone can impede your progress.
Courage.
Face the future,
but face it only with a brave heart and a happy heart.
Do not seek to see it.
Know that all is well and the faith,
not seeing,
but believing,
is what will bear you to safety,
over the stormy waters.
According to your faith be it unto you.
If for wonder working,
if for healing,
if for salvation,
faith is so necessary.
Become as a little child.
Faith is the child attitude.
Seek to become childlike,
until the years have added to your nature that of a trusting child.
Not only for its simple trust must you be childlike,
but for it's joy,
laughter,
lack of criticism,
desire to share with all men.
Ask much that you become as little children,
friendly, and loving towards all - not critical, not fearful.
Except you become as little children,
you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven". -God Calling

The pleasure of belonging to a family is a treasure indeed.

Marriage:   Threefold, friendship, fellowship, passion.
Do you have fun together?
Common interests, emotionally supported.
Passion.
Are you secure in the fidelity of your marriage commitment?
In spiritual closeness/common eternal goals?

Enlarge our capacity to enjoy intimacy!

Do not weigh your spirits down with the sins and sorrows of the world.

Lord, help us to be good stewards of the blessings you have given us.
Only in the fullness of spiritual things can the heart sick and faint and weary be satisfied, healed and rested.

Do not weigh your spirits down with the sins and sorrows of the world.  
Look for the loving, the true, the kindly, the brave in the many around you.

It is more blessed to give than to receive.
Lord sometimes I am task oriented rather, looking at my goal, instead of being in the present.


Much that I must accept in life is not to be accepted as being necessary for me, personally,
but to set an example to share in the sufferings and difficulties of mankind.

"He saved others, Himself He cannot save."

"My path has tender lights and restful shapes that no other walk in life can give.
That your joy might be full.
True happiness rests in the certainty that God cares alot!
