Sometimes life just seems to have led us down a dead end. This can be experinced as bad relationships, depression, low mood state, poverty and so on. There seems to be nowhere to go, no way out, and our dreams and desires are further away than ever. There is a way out. There is a way to get back on track.

We oftentimes search for God frantically amid the storm, when troubles blow hard and the fires of adversity surround us. Yet, God is speaking to us in His own quiet way, and we are missing the message.

Our True Selves are from Heaven, and they are all equal. Why is there the distinction of good and evil in human character?

There are three laws of the Magi and this is the short version of one of them.

Have you ever been Had? God says He doesn’t want us to forget. We say, we just want to be healed. Has Good or Proud ever gotten in the way of you being Healed? There have been more Hads than Good or Proud may ever know. And sometimes it takes a Has Been to know a Had.

We reap what we sow. Whatever your heart needs or desires, give it away. Give it away until your heart becomes a reservoir of life.

Myths are dramatizations of our inner journeys. While on the hero's path, we will confront good and evil, right and wrong, wonderments and dangers--and most of all, ourselves.

The world’s idea of justice and freedom fall short of their purpose. Prison bars keep the guilty from repeating their crime while behind them. They cannot change the person. Freedom comes with a price. We have to take responsibility for our actions. We are never free from the tensions of living on the earth. We must pay the price of making a living and existing among people of different temperaments and cultures. Being in Christ is the perfect answer because he has already paid the price for our sins.

The inescapable fact of the matter is that by ourselves, we cannot do what is right. We just do not make the grade. Knowing the rules whether they are golden or silver, do not make us able to obey them. We keep on falling into a trap called sin.

If we are honest with ourselves, we would have to admit that the reason we have difficulty forgiving others is because we sincerely believe we are justified in our withholding forgiveness.

The gospel started with Abraham. That is why Scripture says he was introduced to the gospel in advance. If anyone was ever a religious fanatic it was Abraham. If anyone ever had an excuse to disobey God it was Abraham. God tested him in many ways including asking him to offer his only son of promise on the altar. Because he passed the test, we have the blessings of being in Christ.

I tell you, my friends do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after the killing of the body has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.
Luke at 12:4

After returning from a camping vacation, hopefully we will feel refreshed, we will have a better appreciation for our modern conveniences, we will have made some good memories, we will have strengthened relationships, and we will have brought our life a little more into balance.

Lexie Chihuahua is a very special little chihuahua girl that came to me through a series of miracles that I believe were orchestrated by my son, Brian Michael, before his passing on February 22, 2003.

The human nature means the soul and the body. There can never be a balance and harmony between the soul and the body without Islam.

The deeper beauty of spring is its process. In winter's last days, as the sun warms the earth, each root and branch awakens to the patterned memory of who it is and what it can be. Life stirs and nat...

I think I'm having a heart attack….. maybe not. Then it must be high blood pressure, my face is beet red. Could be a major allergy reaction…that's it! I can't breathe, my heart is pounding, my eyes are squeezed shut. Pass the EpiPen, I'm definitely very allergic to something I just read:
