Faith is The Key

FAITH

God is the One Presence and One Power active in my life and in the universe.

The wind is invisible, but I can see evidence of its power as it blows a sailboat across the water or turns the blades of a giant wind turbine. As I observe the wind, I am reminded that the spirit of God is also moving in and through my life in seen and unseen ways.

No matter what I am facing in the moment, peace fills my soul as I affirm my faith: God is the One Presence and One Power active in my life and in the universe. I not only proclaim my faith; I live my faith. By holding an expectation of good, I actively help shape my experiences. I recognize that even challenges offer good to be discovered.

My faith in God inspires me to have courage and encourages me to live life fully.

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.--Hebrews 11:1

RELATIONSHIPS

I am thankful for my relationships.

My heart warms with gratitude when I consider the relationships that enrich my life. I have family and friends who are my companions, and with whom I share a deep and lasting soul connection. We celebrate, cry and hug one another through joy and sorrow.

I am also thankful for my acquaintances--the store clerk who asks about my day, the veterinarian who cares for my pets, the neighbor who proudly shares pictures of her grandchildren--all are valued relationships.

Interacting with others offers a meaningful and rewarding avenue for spiritual growth. Our hearts open as we learn each other's ways, work through challenges together, and recognize each other's sacredness.

May the God of steadfastness ... grant you to live in harmony with one another.--Romans 15:5

DIVINE ORDER

Divine order is established in me and in my life.

As I think about order, I marvel at nature. Winter's barren trees follow their indwelling pattern to become summer's canopy of green. Birds follow their internal compass to make their yearly migration. The sun rises every morning in the east and sets in the west.

I am part of and immersed in the order of life. My breathing is orderly and rhythmic, as is my heartbeat; neither requires my control or direction. I relax into the flow of divine order and allow God to express in and through me, guiding my unfolding.

As each new day begins, divine order manifests in all I think and do. Divine order is established in my life, and I am grateful.

You have made the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows its time for setting. --Psalm 104:19

The Joy of The Lord

Home | Daily Word: "JOY
My life is filled with joy.
I begin this day with a joyful heart, filled with positive expectancy. I experience joy in many ways--seeing a child at play, feeling the love of a pet, talking with a friend on the telephone.

If challenges come my way, I do what I must, without worry or drama. I appreciate the life I have been given and the opportunities that arise. I give to others in loving service and strive to be a positive influence on the world around me.

Joy does not come from outside of me; it emanates from Spirit within. It reflects the choices I make, moment to moment. As I end my day, I give thanks for manifest blessings. My life is filled with joy.

I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete.--John 15:11"

Christian Healing - The Real Victory in Healing

FaithWriters.com-Christian Healing - The Real Victory in Healing:

Why is there so much pain and sickness in the world today? We are experiencing deep inner-pain today for a number of reasons. The environment has been populated and our medical systems are not focused on healing in as much as billing. Yet, Jesus could heal in ways unknown to mankind.

Jesus could simply walk by and people were healed. The same is true for Peter and John as well. Jesus could heal the sick, and dying the dead to life. Our souls are in need of healing too. Just watch one hour of T.V.

In closing, a lady stopped me in the store, she was dying of cancer. She asked me to pray for her. I did. We continue to pray for all the sick and shut-in. People need the power of Jesus today . We need to know that Jesus died on the cross so that we may live. God raised Jesus from the grave for our salvation. It is by faith and prayer that we have the victory in Christ Jesus for all our needs.
