Rainbow Connection
There’s No Debate…..
Reading my inspirational devotion today makes me ‘certain’ of my ‘core beliefs’…..
……that being…God IS Good!
Knowing God personally….from years of ‘faith living and believing’ as well as reading His resume in His Instructional Book for Life and Living….
there is NO debating the fact that…..God IS Good!
Beside all that…..He deals in…..Miracles!
I don’t know about YOU….but I really NEED Miracles for myself and my family and friends… Does any other ’religion’ offer miracles?
Why waste our short time on earth….not knowing….the Creator of the human race?
This is what my ‘inspirational reading’ has to say for today….
“Unknowingly, some of us think we serve a God who is stingy, who loves us only in proportion to how much we work for Him, who is embarrassed by laughter and surprised by spontaneity.
We have forgotten that each day is a gift---and all the work in the world won’t give us more. We’ve forgotten that the mark of a believer is not only love but joy, wonder, appreciation, surprise, creativity, peace, tenacity, hope, simplicity, and even…..PLAY.
May God open us to the ’little things in life’ so that our hearts don’t grow old…
May He teach us to be supple and thirsty for the everyday wonders of being alive so that our minds won’t grow weary.
May He help us not to have to be so useful…..that…we become useless…."
My ‘core values’ are the same as those above…..there is no debating the fact that…..God is the author of…..The Good Life!

After writing the above....I decided to include something that I had written in
April 2003...(from the archives)....it elaborates on the above....
Are You Sure?
When I think of......miracles.....Joy leaps in my heart!
They are a delight to behold, to experience, to pray into others lives and to receive.....out of the blue!
Miracles happen every day.
The brilliant genius Albert Einstein has this view on miracles:
“There are only two ways to live your life:
One is as though nothing is a miracle;
the other is as though EVERYTHING is a miracle.”
The dictionary defines a miracle as.... “an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs.”
Do you know that you can make miracles happen in your life and the life of others? The most familiar way to make a miracle happen is to.....requisition or harness the tremendous, often underestimated....power of prayer.... particularly if you are one who is blessed with.....faith.
Prayers are answered.
You do not need to feel you are being pushy or presumptuous when you pray for something.
After all, it was Jesus Himself who urged his followers over and over....to lobby God for their needs. “Ask and you shall receive,” Jesus said.
“Seek and you shall find. Knock and the door will be opened to you.”
Jesus always practiced what He preached and did not hesitate to perform His wonderful miracles on those who ASKED Him for a miracle.
The medical field is paying more attention to the fact that at times seemingly incurable diseases disappear without standard medical treatment or other human means.
It is often described on medical charts as.. ”spontaneous remission”....Yet, they still can’t explain....how it happens, or why it happens to one patient and not another. There is medical truth that our attitudes and emotions are linked in critical ways to our bodies, specifically our brain, and nervous, endocrine, and immune systems. Numerous brain chemicals - - -released in response to everything from sadness to euphoria - have been proven to affect the immune system.
Exactly why the emotions affect the body is not fully understood.
But there is evidence that certain psychological and spiritual states CAN change the course of disease.....
An on-site doctor and president of the Lourdes Medical Bureau, Dr. Roger Pilon has this to say about miraculous healings at the famous Lourdes Shrine in the French Pyrenees....
”In every disease there is a psychological part.
Any doctor will tell you that someone who wants to be cured is a better patient and has a better chance of recovery than one who give up.”
Why do some people have miracles ....and others don’t?
Only God knows the answer on an individual basis but based on my experience with Him..... ....Faith is the answer.....
Faith’s definition based on Hebrews 11:l says.....
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and CERTAIN of what we do not see...” or....”substance of things hoped for.....yet evidence of things not seen...”
That’s faith.... Faith produces miracles for ourselves and others.....when we petition God...believing in our hearts ....we are Blessed by.....Miracles.
I pray for a MIRACLE for YOU.....today!
....God's only pain is to be Doubted:
....God's only Pleasure is to be BELIEVED!
