My Faith

Carol anne's avatarTherapy Bits

I am not a big believer. I do have faith but it’s not very strong.

I am spiritual in my own way.

I believe in angels, and I believe in a higher power.

Not sure about god though. Where was he when I was being abused?

I often question if there is a god at all.

There is so much cruelty and evil in our world.

Why would god allow this to be so?

I really am unsure what I believe, I do pray though.

Mostly I pray to my guardian angel.

Thoughts of man

Ever hidden jewels in caverns,
Lie the deepest thoughts of Man
Where God´s Love is always stirring
never near mortal demands

A place of calm and deepest refuge
A place unfettered like the sea
Always stirring pure emotions
Setting every captive free

Like the waves e’er pushing forward
Or the leaves in autumn trees
freeing man from his addictions
a place where every demon flees

Back and forth with branches swaying,
A breeze it sweeps upon the leaves,
Bringing man to stations higher,
Than at first he did believe.

Touching first the ruffled feather,
Of rested birds within their nests,
Then stripping through the thickened treetops.
Bringing leaves, autumnal rest.

Gently stirring garden blossoms.
Harshly pulling tidal seas,
Taking man to places heavenly,
Than he could e’er first believe.

Different message?

Different message?

I was reminded yesterday that even if you’re in the same room as other people, see the same things, hear the same words, and experience the same atmosphere, each person there will probably take different things from what they saw/heard/experienced.

That is why it’s important that when we communicate with others (regardless of the method of communication), it is important that we ensure the message we relate is understood by those receiving that message, simply because we all pick up on different things in different ways.

So in summary, present your message using whatever communication methods you want, but get those you’ve given your message to, to repeat to you a summary of your message. That way, if your message hasn’t been fully understood, you can then present it in a different way, maybe using a different medium, to try to get your message across.

Lives, Words and Actions

As Christians we have to be careful because our Lives, Words & Actions are seen by those we meet every day. Because they are full of twists & turns, Joys & heartaches, success & failure.

People will only judge us by how we act or react to certain circumstances and our actions must be in line with what we believe and speak out love, grace, mercy, faith, kindness, self control, patience to those around us.

Do people see Christ in us, or do we hide him? What would our friends & neighbour’s call us?

Finally would Jesus like what he sees in you?
