Building Belief in God's Help

Here is a note from Norman Vincent Peale's book, Believe and Achieve: Think of the many times God has been good to you. List each one on paper and review the list from time to time. For example, you might list: recovery from illness, the time your loved one was devinely protected, the occasion--when in deep discouragement--you found a way out of your difficulty. "God is helping me now." Repeat this affirmation every day, and your mind will become tranquil and relaxed as you assure yourself of his love and mercy. Then, you will know that you can meet whatever the day brings. Life will be good, even though it may be difficult at times. Here is the prayer he asks us to pray: Our Heavenly Father, help us to remember that when we take Jesus, our Savior, into our lives, we can handle anything. Help us to obtain spiritual power to overcome our problems and help others overcome theirs. T
hank you, Lord, for letting us live in this wonderful world and be part of its challenge. This we ask through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

I pray you are having a blessed Easter. Diana
