Human Nature

When the mind is intransigent, it sees what it perceives to be true; and only believes what it sees. This skepticism is human nature: yet all is possible with God. Some people hesitate to explicitly define their beliefs: for fear of being mocked or shunned. Our personal experiences enable us to define good and evil. But when we pray to God, we are spiritually comforted. Friends and family are integral to a healthy spiritual life. Our egos are fragile: we need a sound support structure, should self-doubts attack us: over failed dreams, low expectations, and meager accomplishments. Do not forget: you are a soul, don't allow doubt to be your tormentor and destroyer.

The fact that we call things good and evil brings us back to our belief in God. How quick one is to blame God and yet say he/she doesn’t believe. More the question is how God’s goodness fits. Be blessed my dear friend!
