Everyday Spirituality

I look at the lilies outside my window and wonder how I can be that peaceful and beautiful without saying a word or doing anything but being. Song of Solomon 2:2 ESV 2 As a lily among brambles,     so is my love among the young women.

When working on the 6th edition of 21st Century Science and Health, this sentence was revealed: “Faith, advanced to understanding, gains evidence of Spirit.” I think, human beings have faith, whether religious or not. We have faith is something, even if it’s in a random world. I choose to believe in an ordered world, but…

Many of us make lists. We read in The Message, “God, who gets invited to dinner at your place? How do we get on your guest list?” Ps. 15:1 I can interpret this to mean, invite yourself! We can invite our self to eat spiritual truths, to share spiritual truths and love. That’s what my husband…

From 21st Century Science and Health: “If God causes a person to be sick, sickness must be good and therefore health must be evil, for all that He makes is good and will stand forever. Or, if violation of God’s law produces sickness, it is right to be sick; and we cannot if we would,…

In America, is a 2002 film. Key script was when the wife told her husband, after enduring hard times that life seems like make believe, so believe you’re happy. It was an interesting movie that presented a decent father/husband figure.
