When God has faith in you?

I received an email from my sister-in-law that contained these thought provoking sentences that we should remember and pass it on to everyone you know.

Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble; it is a
"steering wheel" that directs us in the right path throughout life.

All things in life are temporary. If going well enjoy it, they will not last
forever. If going wrong don’t worry, they can't last long either.

Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, GOD smiles from above and
says, "Relax, sweetheart, it's just a bend, not the end!

When GOD solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities; when GOD
doesn't solve your problems HE has faith in your abilities.

When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them; and sometimes,
when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has prayed for you.

What is the real meaning of celebration?

At the outset, I sincerely thank Sherry who gave meaning to my small moments of happiness. She taught me to celebrate such moments of happiness that I have stopped doing long ago.

I don't celebrate my birthday, wedding anniversary and rare email notifications of payment received received from Paypal. Her blog post on 'celebrating' rekindled my desire to celebrate. I read it on the day when one of my internet marketing effort brought a sale.

While I never fail to wish my friends on their birthdays and wedding anniversaries, I don't wish myself on such annual occasions.

As she right said, we always have something to celebrate. As we grow old, nothing good or bad seems to matter to us. We take everything in our stride and move on.

Sherry's words that celebration is a form of gratitude made a lot of sense. By celebrating, we acknowledge our effort.

I quote Sherry below:
" celebrating is a form of prayer, a way of saying “Thank you, God” for the gifts we’ve been given".

Thank you Sherry. You are an angel.

How to measure the strength of your positive beliefs.

I have written a lot about removing some of the beliefs that would change your life for the better. I also firmly believe in this fundamental concept of law of universe.

Here are two of my articles on removing negativity that were published in Ezine Articles:

The latest blog post in this blog attarcted a couple of meaningful comments. In one of them, there was a mention about measuring the strength of changed beliefs. I never thought of this. Yes, we all can change our beliefs positively with the help of affirmations and other mind power tools.

Any new positive belief must be really strong to get the benefit out of it. So, how do we the strength of the new beliefs?
