God entrusted this earth to us. Not to trash and spoil her, but to respect and treat her well. After all, this earth is the handiwork of God.

Prayer is when you talk to God. Meditation is when you become quiet and listen to God. You've learned how to talk and ask well. Time to learn how to listen and hear, because God has been answering you.

When you shine your light, you encourage others to do the same and your life becomes surrounded by the warmth and love of those you share a path with.

Lighten up and play. Remember, you are God's child, so it's ok to be silly, be curious, be fun.

When your mind is caught in a storm, be as still as a lake. Cool the currents of your emotions with compassion and faith. The storm will pass - and your mind will settle.

Ask advice on relationships only from friends who have deeply fulfilling relationships. Ask money advice only from those who are wealthy themselves. Ask advice on kids from your parents only if you are happy with the way you've been raised.

You keep wanting to know how things will play out, keep asking to see the future. God doesn't give anyone the power to know the future, because life becomes maddeningly boring when you know everything upfront. So, instead of struggling, enjoy the uncertainty - to be alive means to not know.

Happiness does not come from seeking new landscapes, but from having new eyes on the same life you've always been living.

In a world where there are many things competing for your devotion and worship, God is the only one that delivers and doesn't disappoint. Putting anything above God will ultimately let you down and leave you feeling empty. So sing praises, lift your hands in the air and give glory to God. It's good for you!
