Why do some people have HOPE and others don't?

I have noted that phenomenon often. I love the definition I heard for hope once, "Hope is God's however". When hard things happen, God will always follow with, a however...I can help you get through it and even help you see life good again. I do like that and has been my experience often.

Would it be that people's life experiences, good or challenging, directly measure ones amount of hope? I don't know, there seem to be "well off people" pretty hopeless and destitute others very hopeful. How does one grow in hope?

Let us know what you think:) Peace out and peace within, your Sis' Becky

What is Prayer to YOU?

I love to pray for people, some may say what does that mean? To me, to pray for others, is to stand in the wide circle of God's love...which includes ALL people and all of creation! Prayer is standing in love with another person. Prayer is walking in the faith that light shall rise from any darkness. Prayer is being in the presence of God with all I think, desire and do. Prayer is my immediate connection to your heart, where we are one in Love and God. What do you think prayer is? And I would love to include your prayers intentions to my own:) Please hold my Dad in yours, as he is challenged with illness at this time.
With Peace and Love, your sister, Rebecca

Who Loves Who More?

An interesting thought came my way and I pass it on to you. What do you think about God and relationships? It is a hard one to explain...like I think about how much I love God, yet when I think of my loved ones out of my life, it all pales, does that mean God is not enough or I am not loving God as much as I should/could?

Yet, when I asked God about this person I loved, I felt God saying, "I would never put myself before that person?" It was like being cloaked by a God of SUCH humility. I was like in AWE! I learned more about God from that one experience, than many others! What learning and a witness of what I am called to do....not put myself before others, not out of a sense of false humility, but simply out of great love! Come on in and let me know what you are thinking...

Anyone got a question?

Come on in and post your question and then I'll put it out here for everyone to see!
Sorry I have not been on for awhile, I've been great, check out "Life of a Nun" to see what's been up:)

Do you think your soul is in your body or your body in your soul?

Someone asked me this question, what do YOU think? I know my experience has showed me some interesting things with this concept. Come on in and share your experience...

How is it that we can hold sorrow and joy at the same time?

That question has been with me these days...as I listen to so many people through the day, which is my blessing and privilege, I note how each life is called to do this and how hard it can be. How do you experience this in your life? Do you think God made us this way...to hold both pain and joy at the same time within us? Do we hold them in the same place within or in different places within? Is our goal to "get rid of the pain" and just be joyful? Is that possible? Is that our life goal which brings that peace the world cannot give? What was Jesus' experience of this human phenomenon? Come on in, I love your conversations....God's Peace, your sister with heart:)
