Reiki - A Path to Wholeness

At any given moment, people all over the world are reassessing their life. They wonder if it is worthwhile getting up every morning; if there is any point in going to work, in eating dinner, falling asleep and then getting up to start all over again. They are told they can be anything they want to be and yet they’re not even sure what that is.

Our problem with Jesus is not whether He lived on this earth for history proves it; it's whether we choose to believe it.

What is Real?

Christians must come to a realization of what is real and what is not. Some things are not what they seem to be.

Our Gentle Jesus

We cringe from those who would attack our character, even if it isn't all we know it could be. This is why we go to Jesus; we know He respects who and what we are, while He asks--not demands--that we know and love Him to our perfection.

Endurance

We get so discouraged some days. Others don't cooperate as we would like; we don't feel too well; the weather is too cold or too hot or too wet, and on and on. At times we wonder if it is worth the struggle.

The Question Religion Forgot To Answer - Does God Laugh Too?

Written in Water

God judges by motive and mission. Many a noble effort slips by relatives and friends, but God sees and knows all. If we keep in mind that our Brother Jesus missed out on fame and fortune while on earth, then we can forget about reward.
