Use what you have

By Patricia Hardee  (Reblogged from CSMonitor.com)

In an interior design magazine, an advertisement caught my eye: “USE WHAT YOU HAVE. No big deal. Take the terror out of decorating. Talented professional can help you. No job too small or too large. References. Immediate results.”

It was designer Lauri Ward’s ad about using what people already have as a foundation to renew their home décor. For many people, her good idea revolutionized the interior design business. Rearranging for immediate and improved use what is already ours made such good sense, and I thought, That’s an essential principle that Jesus taught.

Speaking of what is already ours through God’s law of abundance, Jesus said, “Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (Mark 11:24, New International Version [NIV])…Read more

 

Prayer heals universally

This video interview got me thinking about prayer and how God operates.

It’s awesome to me, that it doesn’t matter that this man was praying in French; and it doesn’t matter that I pray in English. The universal law of God’s beneficial help apply to everyone, everywhere!

It doesn’t matter what language you speak, God hears your prayer. God knows when the heart speaks.

Through prayer, we becomes conscious of God.

When the human consciousness glimpses the pure, unconditional love of God, the benevolent will of God to man, and an understanding of how we are created in His image and likeness, there isn’t any fear, insecurity or uncertainty left. And consequently the mental foundation for disease is gone. And the disease can vanish as readily as it did for the man in this video.

It doesn’t matter if you are in America, France, Cambodia or any part of the globe, God knows when the heart speaks. And we know God hears us because we feel the presence of divine Love.

Bright light from senior workers

By Barbara Vining (Reblogged from CSMonitor.com)

It’s encouraging to know that age is not a barrier to progress.

I learned that lesson early from a neighbor – a childhood friend’s father, Mr. Fierke. We were still in high school when he reached the mandatory retirement age of 65 at General Mills, where he managed the flour division. Without hesitation, he enrolled in a six-month training course to become a stockbroker, after which he began a 23-year career with a well-known brokerage firm. After that, he continued to live an active life.

In recent times, age has become less and less a factor in deciding when one should retire – or whether one should retire at all. It’s quite common for individuals to want – or need – to continue working during their senior years. Many businesses are actually wooing senior workers, and mandatory retirement ages have been disappearing from the horizon. Employers are valuing seniors for their maturity, dependability, and experience – and, I also think, for the inspiration their example can bring to the workplace.

Mr. Fierke’s example certainly inspired me, as well as many others, I’m sure… Read more
