Are You Insecure?

Search For God

If you feel insecure don’t be ashamed. Learn to live with uncertainty. The uncertainty has always been there, You were just too busy to notice.

Don’t mope around frozen in fear that your actions may be misunderstood. Get busy again. Keep yourself occupied, and whatever you do, please don’t sit around doing nothing.

Continue your search for God. That should help make you a happy camper. At least it will take your mind off what you can’t do anything about. Only God can make us feel secure so keep searching for his message of kindness and caring.

Starting A New Life

Search For God

I meet so many couples these days that are moving to a new location to start a new life. What was wrong with the old one? Location isn’t going to change who you are or how you act. Try and redefine your life with Faith right where you are. It’s going to take all your energy to do this. You don’t have the strength to go through moving day at the same time. Spend your time moving in the direction of God. That’s the best way to start a new life.

Desperation Alley

Search For God

Do you feel like you can’t go on anymore? Are you having personal or financial or health problems that you don’t think you can deal with. You are not alone. You would be amazed at how many people are trying to cope with the same kinds of problems. Maybe faith in God can help you resolve your difficulties. Maybe He can bring you peace of mind.

If you have not found the God of your dreams – the one that can offer you the kindness and caring that you need – this may be the time to do so. Continue your search for God. It might be the answer to your problems.

Sick And Tired

Search For God

I’m sick and tired of people telling me what to think and how to believe in God. It’s my choice and I think it is your choice too. Why can’t people be happy with the belief systems they have and stop trying to impose their views on other people. It’s none of their business what my politics are and how I choose to worship the Almighty.

I also believe that if people were a little less absolute in their opinion of how this world should be run, we might all be in better shape.

Let’s stop telling other people what to do. Let’s just ask them to be kind and caring towards each other. Let’s allow everyone to decide for themselves what their beliefs are.

I think when we do this we will soon realize that we have more in common than we thought. We have a common bond as human beings. We have a common interest in making our world a better place. Let’s express it in a search for the God of our individual dreams.

Stop Shouting – God Can Hear You

Search For God

It isn’t necessary to make your presence known. God knows that you are here. He knows what you are thinking. If you have faith there is nothing to worry about. If you are still searching for the God of your dreams, that’s okay too, at least God will know that you are reaching out to him. All you really have to do is to keep Him in mind.

Stop worrying about the small unimportant things in your life, and start to concentrate on what is really important – your search for God. That way you can make sure that He is getting your message.

Are you getting His?

Do you have Faith?

Search For God

I think that most of us believe in God in one way or the other. The real question is how strong is your faith in Him? I know that sometimes events occur that make us question our faith, but this is exactly the time when you need to believe in God the most so that you can take comfort from His caring and kindness.

Shocking God

Search For God

God must be shocked at what He sees going on around here.

People killing each other for different religious philosophies. Suicide bombers blowing themselves and innocent people up to prove a point. People fighting for the right to live in the part of God's country that they want to call home. Big corporations selling God's resources for outrageously high prices.

Where will it all end? Is this what God wants, or are we making a mess out of His grand design? Nobody seems to have all the answers, but God does. Isn't it time we started listening to the words of God? Isn't it time we started searching for His answers to help us solve our problems?

Immigration -- Can God Inspire Us To Solve The Problem?

Search For God


Is the spirit of “give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free” still alive and well in God’s country?

Talk about “huddled masses”, what do you call twelve million illegal immigrants? Is this what the poet Emma Lazarus had in mind when she used the term?

Perhaps if we stopped offering illegal immigrants free health care and schooling for their children we could reduce the flow substantially, but I am afraid we might run the risk of growing our own illegal immigrant terrorists from this formerly hard working lot who would become upset at the lack of equal social services being supplied to them. Besides, we probably don’t have enough buses in this country to send twelve million people home and we surely can’t expect them to walk although that is how many of them got here.

Do you think this whole problem is part of a French conspiracy? After all they sent us the Statue of Liberty on which Emma Lazarus’s poem is inscribed. I doubt it. It seems unlikely given that they have their own immigration problems.

What does the temporary or guest worker program proposed by the President and by some in congress really mean? Does it mean that illegal immigrants will have to work in this country until they are granted citizenship and then can stop working and go on welfare or refuse to take the low paying jobs that some corporations originally hired them for.

What’s to stop these twelve million illegal immigrants from forming their own union and going on strike for higher wages and pension plans? Can illegal immigrants have 401K plans? Can they take tax deductions on their tax returns for foreign travel as a business expense? So many questions and no one seems to have all the answers. What would happen to our trade deficit if these people stopped buying American goods that are made in China? Perhaps we should institute a buy Mexican policy. It might be cheaper than buying goods from China considering that we wouldn’t have to pay long distance freight charges and it might encourage some of the illegal immigrants to go home to find jobs.

What should we do to protect ourselves from foreign terrorists who might sneak across the border with all these peaceful and hard working immigrants? Perhaps we should install an honor system instead of a wall. We could ask all the illegal immigrants to report any terrorists crossing over with them – anonymously of course. Another approach that might work is to require all illegal immigrants to travel lightly. We should limit them to one small carry across the border type bag and allow nothing big enough to conceal a bomb. Probably something the size of a passport wallet would be safe.


You might well ask where God comes into this whole mess. I believe it goes back to my belief that this is God’s homeland every bit as much as it is ours. I can almost see Him using the poet Emma Lazarus’s famous words, “send these the homeless, tempest-tost to me,” as His own. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if God put those words in Emma Lazarus’s mind. Maybe we should find a way to honor the words of the poet and the thoughts of God at the same time.

There has got to be a better way to protect the rights of American citizens and at the same time give comfort to these struggling masses of immigrants. Why can’t we look to God for the inspiration to find the answers?

Mind Meld of The Magic Genies.

Search For God

Sometimes it takes a little fantasy to help us understand that the conflict between different religious beliefs in the East and the West has reached critical proportions


“Stretched across the vast ineptitude of my soul, I see the ever present temptation of resurrection. I can take no more of new beginnings. Can you not see how vague is our horizon? Doesn’t the glare of mankind’s failure wrench you from your thoughts of a better tomorrow? Glorious, my irascible Magic Genie brother, where are we in the cosmic theme of things? What is there left for us to do? Standing here on a transparent cloud of nature’s quirky design, what can we hope to find in the future? When will God tell us what to do?”

“My old friend Gali, my magical soul mate, my Magic Genie brother, you are as ever the old world philosopher. We can try again. We can search for a better time. We have less than nothing else to do. We can put our minds together and deduce a new beginning, if not at the very beginning, at least not at the end of humanity. Let’s meld our purpose and share the provisions of our hearts and minds to reinstate the possible. God will give us guidance.”

“I see nothing but shadows Glorious. My thoughts are too disheartened for a meeting of our minds to do any good. Woe is me, where has all the magic gone?”

“It has left us at the entranceway of a new beginning my dear friend Gali if we can only find our way. We must try again. It is God’s will.”

“But they are all gone Glorious, all our friends, their culture, their very humanity. We cannot expect to resuscitate civilization with our own shaky salvation.”

“ I guess Gali there is nothing left to do but have faith. What else is left to us?”

“Maybe you are right Glorious. What else can we do but have faith. I will try again with you. Come, join your thoughts with mine and we will try to begin again. Together we will resonate as one voice; one thought in our attempt with God’s help to resurrect humanity.”

“That’s the spirit Gali. After all, we are nothing if not free spirits.”

“This mind meld must be working Glorious. You are starting to sound like me.”

“And you Gali are starting to think like me. Isn’t it wonderful? Together we shall find the power for humanity’s salvation, and maybe even our own redemption. I can feel it, can’t you? The old magic is coming back. A new future is in the making. May we find a better way to be civilization’s guardians this time under God’s good grace. May we begin again.”

“Can you perceive it Glorious? Can you sense the strength returning to our spirit? Can you not see the vale of despair lifting? Where shall we start my old friend?”

“We must start before the final bombs fall Gali. We must go back in time. We must change the ending to find a new beginning.”

“I see, would that it were ever thus. Can we do this Glorious?”

“Do we have a choice Gali? “What are they waiting for?”

“They are waiting for final instructions Glorious. Here on the frozen Tundra of Siberia they are waiting for the command to let loose the final bombs that will end the world.

“Where will the orders come from Gali? What can we do to stop them? Why are they fighting?”

“They are fighting for different ways of life. They are fighting for religious principals. The orders will come from bunkers buried deep in the earth far from here where men of fanatical endeavor will give the orders. We can only stop them if we can show them that there is no one right way. We must show them that there has got to be a better way than destroying humanity to prove whose way is right. We must reinvigorate them with the possibility of a better tomorrow. We must give them hope Glorious. And we must do so quickly. Time my old friend is not on our side this day. We will have to split up. You must go to the West. I will go to the East. We must get them to stand down. Hurry, we are almost out of time. They are about to destroy the world. There will be nothing again - no humanity, no civilization, no hope for the future. I do not believe this is how God would have it.”

“How will I know what to say Gali?”

“Remember we are of one mind Glorious. We shall know each other’s thoughts. We shall speak as one mind. Hurry, we must find a better way. God will give us the words.”

Stop Patching Yourself Together

Search For God

A little kid came over to me at a Girl Scout meeting, and asked me if I could help her get her father to stop smoking, and would I recommend a Patch? I told her I normally don’t deal with children. I have enough trouble dealing with adults who are mostly children at heart, but I would make an exception in her case, and talk to her father if she promised not to tell anyone. I am not going to make this into a children’s hour. I spoke to her father and told him to stop patching himself together and have Faith he could stop smoking on his own. He told me he had no Faith in his ability to do so and that is why he smoked and drank. He was trying to forget how little willpower he had.

I told him I was going to repeat over and over, “you can’t win them all. You can’t expect everyone to have Faith.” I told him I had to go now. I was late for a Faith Building group therapy session for severely rattled Magic Genies who have spent too much time dealing with faithless people like him. I hope his little girl is OK. At least I don’t have to worry about your children too, do I? Stop patching yourself together. Get some faith in God to help you deal with your weaknesses.

A Good Lesson To Share With Your Children

Search For God

One evening a wise old man told his grandson about a debate that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between the two wolves inside each of us.

One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.

The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which one wins?"

Grandfather simply replied, "The one you feed."

VIRUSES, TERRORISM, AND BELIEFS

Search For God



I have been swamped, deluged and inundated with people’s thoughts telling me they are frightened by the possibility of terrorist attacks. They are scared of airmail toxins, viruses and nuclear explosions ruining their health and jeopardizing their lives. I am telling you people I don’t do illnesses, only social diseases. My only answer to you is to have Faith. We will overcome adversity.

Speaking of social diseases, there is one that is causing quite a stir. On this I am definitely a non- expert expert. It is called the Ostrich Virus. It isn’t airborne, but this insidious social disease leap frogs from credit card to credit card, leaving their wealthy owners trembling in fear of losing their material possessions. If you want the cure stop worrying so much about your assets.

Are you in fear of losing your possessions? If so, you are just causing the virus to spread. Do you judge your accomplishments solely in monetary terms? Come alive my friends, having Faith will give you all the credit you need. There, don’t you feel more secure now? Doesn’t having Faith make you feel prosperous? You will if you just believe in God.

Faith Or Inspiration – Which Comes First?

Search For God

Do you start out with faith in God or do you have to be inspired to search for Him? Where does the inspiration to believe in God come from? It seems everyone has an answer, but which answer is right?

I believe it depends on who is asking the question. If you are a person that is well grounded in your religious beliefs then faith probably comes first. If you are searching for God, then perhaps you need to be inspired to help you find your way.

I like to believe that we are all inspired to find our faith in God. To me it is a natural human instinct perhaps facilitated by an inborn genetic code or gene. I like to believe that the inspiration to find God comes from the Almighty Himself.

I think the inspiration comes from our need to experience God’s grace, to find inner peace, and to develop a sense of serenity. I think it comes from our need to seek God’s help in coping with our problems. I think it comes from a desire to believe that there is something more to our lives than the short span of our own mortality. I think it comes from a need to be assured that there is a Heaven.

Whatever inspires us to find our faith in God; the fact is that we do have the need to believe. Most of us have to believe in a higher power to make our lives tolerable. We want to have faith because it helps us achieve inner peace of mind. We are inspired to have faith because we want to succeed in our journey to find God.

May God grant us the strength and the inspiration and the faith to succeed in our search on a journey that never ends – the search to find God.

Stop Beating Yourself Up

Search For God

It is time to stop berating yourself because other people claim they are the only people of faith, and you don’t think you have the right to make the same claim. You have as much right as anyone else to be a person of faith as long as you believe in God in your own way.

Being a person of faith is not a matter of which religion you adhere to, it is a matter of what is in your heart. If you truly believe in God, then you have the right to claim that you are a person of faith.

Isn’t it time you started letting people know that you are a person of faith?

Chapter 2 Stripping Away Your Inhibitions Part 3

Search For God

You have to learn:
1. Not to give in to your fears that something will go wrong if you do not follow a set format. Don’t be afraid to change lifelong patterns of behavior.
2. You have to start to believe in yourself. Admit to yourself that you are a good and worthwhile person who is entitled to have his or her dreams come true.
3. Exercise your right to conjure up from the deepest resources of your mind those imaginative thoughts that can improve your life and those of your loved ones.
4. Analyze those imaginative thoughts that may seem out of context with your basic beliefs, and see if you can find a way to reconfigure them so that they can provide a framework for you finding more faith in God. Use these released thoughts to help you find more faith. Use your God given right to make a choice.

Stripping away your inhibitions can help you open your heart to God. It can help make you feel free. It can help you find more faith. I know that you’re thinking that it’s hard to change. But sometimes it is harder to stay in the rut of limited possibilities. Take the easy course to finding more faith in God, and strip away your inhibitions.

Chapter 2 Stripping Away Your Inhibitions Part 2

Search For God

Why else would the good Lord have given us the power of independent thought? Why else would He allow us the right to make choices about how we believe in him? Strip away your inhibitions and allow freedom of choice to frame a new response to your quest for more faith.

Most of us do things out of a sense of tradition. Many of us belong to organized religions that provide us with rules to live by. This is good because it gives us a basic set of values and beliefs, but we have to learn to go beyond what we have been told in order to discover what we truly believe. We have to learn to question ourselves to help us find more faith. We can use our traditional beliefs to help us form a foundation for finding more faith. We have to strip away our inhibitions so that we can expand out horizons.

In order for you to unlock your imagination and realize your promise, (that which is special about each of us individually), that each of us has to do more with our lives, you have to strip away years of inhibitions that have been keeping you from fulfilling your dreams.

Chapter 2 Stripping Away Your Inhibitions Part 1

Search For God

Do you ever wonder if you are doing the right thing? When you learn how to strip away your inhibitions you will learn what your options are, and which ones are right for you to follow.

Take the ‘little leap’ of faith that let’s you understand that only God can decide what is right and what is wrong.

Many of us spend too much time trying to live by a set of rigid standards that inhibit us from discovering our true feelings. It’s important to have a moral set of standards by which we live our lives, but we shouldn’t be so set in our ways that we aren’t willing to explore new thoughts and formulate new patterns of behavior.

Stripping away our inhibitions starts with a question. Ask yourself why am I doing things this way? Ask yourself if there is a different and better way for me to think about my life and its purpose so that I can find more faith. Ask yourself if you are doing things in a certain way solely because of family traditions or because of religious background or because you truly believe in the code of conduct you are adhering to. If you are secure in your beliefs as they are now you probably wouldn’t be reading this to help you find more faith. Allow yourself to question why you do what you do and how you can expand upon good and worthwhile traditions and religious beliefs to help you find more faith. Open your heart to God.

Take the ‘little leap’ of faith that allows you to admit to yourself that there may be more than one way to find God.
