Today's thought is:

About the time I wish I were dead, something falls in my path about which I make a difference. Then I figure God was saving me for that.
--Janice Clark

Not everybody has the easy faith that Janice has, but perhaps we could all cultivate it. They say it's never too late to make a friend of God who's been waiting in the wings all along. But some may question this point, particularly if they have lived this long without attending to their spiritual side. Indeed, it's not a requirement. However, those who have sought the counsel of a Higher Spirit have found comfort in the knowledge that they are never alone. Furthermore, they generally are able to see a pattern to the events of their lives, and they know that all situations have played their part in the total unfolding.

It is pretty exciting to believe that anything that crosses one's path today is by design. One of the plusses of believing in God is knowing that we don't have to handle any situation that occurs without guidance. We never have to have all the answers. We never have to have any of them, in fact. All we have to do is seek them from the only Source that really has them.

If we haven't allowed our lives to be this easy up to now, let's give this process a chance. There's no reason to keep struggling with the circumstances that happen to us. They are there as lessons, nothing more.

I will acknowledge the rightness of whatever comes my way today.

When I am ready to throw in the towel and give up it always happens. The thing that worried me the most works itself out. Sure usually with some footwork from me. However I believe in my higher power to guide me into the right footwork to take. I have been through oh so much including my last rights read and by the grace of my higher power I pulled through and I am here to tell about it. I know its hard sometimes to believe in a higher power. Sometimes what we don't see we don't want to believe. In my theory though I don't think I would have make it have as far into my addiction and then out of it if I didn't bellieve. God has brought me a great many of places and taught me so much. This is why I believe. It don't matter who or what your higher power is as long as you got one to help through the toughest times, or even the more simple moments.
