If you knock on the door it will open. That's roughly what Jesus said and it's true.<br /><br />I haven't always believed, but once I decided I needed and wanted to believe in a loving God - Wow!<br /><br />You might be interested in the book I wrote, A Firm Place to Stand. I explain there how I came to the Christian faith.<br />Not trying to make you spend your money, but maybe if you don't want it yourself you could ask your library to order a copy. See info about the book in the sidebar to my blog.<br /><br />I'll try to write a bit in my next post on this topic, if you're willing to stand by and come back. Will try tonight.marjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01810913152746930742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-20049400950369410012009-09-07T12:24:21.109-07:002009-09-07T12:24:21.109-07:00First time at your site.

I firmly believe in spiritual influences, but I have a harder time thinking they care very much. A product of my life history, no doubt. It helps when I hear others who <em>do</em> have faith. It helps me believe I can find something akin to it again. Not that I am miserable, for I am actually at a pretty good place in my life right now. But it would be better if I had more spiritual connection. I yearn for it. Thank you for providing a message to me today that makes me think I might find my way back to feeling that there is a larger consciousness in play, and that this 'God' actually cares.WillSpirithttp://willspirit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-59491056810945900412009-09-06T16:41:35.881-07:002009-09-06T16:41:35.881-07:00Thanks, Nancie.

You're truly my sister in that way as well. <br /><br />I've come to think of this work as a kind of worship. Instead of music, use photographs to accompany the Psalms and other scripture.<br /><br />Take care.<br />Love, marjamarjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01810913152746930742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-5919720943218100932009-09-06T16:27:04.968-07:002009-09-06T16:27:04.968-07:00Dear Marja,

Truly there are healing power in the presence of God, in His bosom where we are loved and cared for. <br /><br />Your bookmarks are so beautiful! I love this one very much. It gives a certain sense of comfort and assurance that God is able to deliver us or sustain us in our trials. Thank God for the creativity He has given to you and to me too. I love to make bookmarks and cards, to put encouraging Bible verses with them to remind me of God's love, mercies and faithfulness.<br /><br />May you continue to know God's love and faithfulness daily. Take care!<br /><br />With love in Christ <br />and prayers,<br />NancieNanciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08098102116087099990noreply@blogger.com
