Six Godless Beliefs

  • I must have immediate fulfillment of my needs
  • I must avoid uncomfortable situations
  • I must be treated fairly
  • I must always get things to turn out right
  • I must have approval at all times
  • I must be outstanding at whatever I do or I won't do it

Fear

I am really afraid of something right now. It's very personal, very close to me, and very hard to put to words. I am reminded of a quote in my handmade quote collecting journal.

"We turn to God for help when our foundations are shaking only to learn that it is God shaking them." - Charles West.

Tell me what you think about that. Do you have a foundation that's shaking?
