The benefits of a well tended garden are obvious, but the decision to do so requires faithful commitment to attend to it’s well being. In doing so, we will partake of it’s fruit. Failing to so, will only produce worthless weeds.

Some people wonder: is being a Christian hard today? The true answer lies not with being Christian – but with the person themselves.

You have been invited to a party. There’s the promise of an abundance of food and drink, beautiful people, and rocking music. The only alternative is a night in with a cup of tea, reading the scriptures. Which do you choose?

You are a soul that has a body, not a body that has a soul. At first glance this might seem a petty semantic difference, but on further consideration the difference is profound. Instead of being a body with a soul trapped inside longing to escape back to the One, the All, the Source, as a soul inhabiting a body you remain part of the All.

As the minutes and hours of each day tick by, I try to tune my senses to both the supernatural workings of God as well as the ordinary, that is: the worldly things that happen all around me. This kind of two-world awareness is not an easy thing for me to do and often I may seem like I’m off in a never-never-land or up there flying around somewhere on my own private Cloud Nine.

How many thousand times have I said to myself: ” I shoulda done that differently, or, I shoulda asked God about that before I did it. Or, If I’d only known what was going to happen before I did it I woulda done it differently!” I keep trying for 20/20 vision but…
