If mind over matter works, would it matter if we adopted a Divine Mind?
Today, I feel great. Tuesday, I had a heart condition. How can that be? Our mind is amazing, isn’t it? Tell us we are sick, we become sick. Tell us we can do it, we can. Convince us it is our lot in life to be such and such, we become such and such. This […]
Be Prepared
If you’ve done all you can, you’re prepared.
The Instrument of Prayer
Prayer is the instrument we play for a listening God. Our prayers do not flow like a concerto, nor are they fluid like a symphony, nor rhythmic like a march. They are halting and unsure, like a child’s first piano piece. God is patient. Still, they are music to God’s ears. God knows the melody, […]
