The Universe Moved Do you pray expecting to receive or with trepidation? When we pray with doubt, believing secretly in our heart of hearts that God is too busy or we are insignificant or since our hands are not perfectly clean our prayers will not be answered, we are praying with two minds, wanting ourContinue reading “The Universe Moved”

Saint Peter Cried We lay “claim” to things daily, usually without a thought. Whenever we start a statement with “My”, we claim ownership. Having ruminated on this over the years, I think I am finally getting it. Although I may have a headache or a flair up of arthritis, do I really want to “own” them?Continue reading “Saint Peter Cried”

Why God? We are actively engaged in daily prayer, meditation and service yet areas of our life seemingly are not improving, and new troubles seem to keep appearing, why?

Prayer Is Always The Answer 2019 I have not always “really” prayed. Sure, there were those furtive pleas of “please let me pass this (math, English, history, etc.) test,” “please stop the room from spinning” (if you have never said this prayer, I hope you never have too), “please, don’t let her be pregnant, IContinue reading “Prayer Is Always The Answer 2019”

Selling It It is been suggested we “pray with a feather” for prayer should never be hard work. Additionally, when engaged in prayer we should not concern ourselves with phrasing or providing long explanations. The longer the explanation or “set up” the more obvious we are trying to “sell it.” Now in truth, who areContinue reading “Selling It”

Nobel Prize for Physics winner Max Planck in a 1944 speech on the nature of matter stated: “All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. We must assumeContinue reading “A Wonderful Contemplation. Really.”

A Carpenter and Forrest Gump Fate, as a conscious power, is a convenient catch all for those unwilling to do the work required to live the examined life.
