We must make a decision. Are we going to believe in Christ, allowing for His abilities to help beyond our understanding? or are we going to believe only in our own understanding of how things happen?
We can choose to believe in Christ,
even though His abilities are beyond our understanding of Christ’s abilities.

Do you need a reason to love?
Try this reason – because loving adds God to people’s lives.
Do you need a reason to forgive?
Try – because forgiving adds God to people’s lives.
Do you need a reason to be patient with others?
Try – because being patient with others adds God to people’s lives.
Do you need a reason?
try – to add God to people’s lives.
Because by loving, by forgiving, by being patient or kind, or supportive, or encouraging, we are adding God to people’s lives. God exists in these acts when they come from our heart. All acts of love, bring God into the world. Where God is, Love is. Where Love is, God is. They cannot be separated. One cannot exist without the other.
Still, we don’t always recognize this to be true. We can sometimes recognize love to be present, but rarely do we recognize God to be present, as well.
The next time you want to have an experience of God, Love someone. God will be present in that moment’s experience.

How we live our life while in this world, is our legacy to the world when we leave it. . . whether we want it to be or not.

Effort is not a one-time step to take,
unless we want one step to be all that is ever taken.

At any time,
we can stop and listen to Jesus teach.

It’s okay to pray -
Lord, help all of us who have these failings -
the same failings as that are here inside me, even now.

For some,
Love is what they speak.
For others, though,
Love is how they live.

Having faith has always been God’s answer to a problem.
Not having faith has never been God’s answer to a problem.

Feeling peace is not experiencing God.
Helping someone else feel peace is experiencing God.

We go through change and transformation via the effort we make to heal relationships, …
the one we have with God,
the ones we have with others,
and the one we have with our self.

No one speaking judgment and condemnation speaks for God.
No one speaking fear and retribution speaks for God.
The one speaking love, forgiveness, kindness, patience and mercy – He speaks for God.
