∞ FAITH and ANXIETY ∞

Posted: Tue, Mar 1, 2005 05:49:59 AM

some days it just does not seem to be worth it to get up out of bed. other days i wake up with the a deep gratitude of being alive and excited for the prospects of the day. but most days i just wake up and go about my bidness without taking the time to FEEL what is up. i know the place of overwhelming FEAR and not being able to move forward with anything. the reading this morning talks about that but gently reminds me that one of the gifts that i have received is a relationship with a loving, caring GOD. and it has been my experience that i am not given any more in a day than i can handle nor am i left to fend for myself against what i perceive is a cool, cruel world. i am given all the tools that i need, if i choose to stop, look around and pick them. the GOD i have come to understand would not have brought this far along my journey to drop me now. and this is the core of my FAITH. yes i can be overwhelmed with FEAR, UNCERTAINTY and DOUBT and yes i can forget that i have the means at my disposal to take care of what i need to, but i must STOP, take a spot inventory then act.
simple? YES! easy? NOT HARDLY! but it is accomplishable

Tao Te Ching

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

The Tao Teh King, or The Tao and Its Characteristics
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 1

2) I do not know its name, and I give it the designation of the Tao
(the Way or Course). Making an effort (further) to give it a name
I call it The Great.
