It is a Christianized version of the Secret and promises that as long as you have “faith” (think the right thoughts) God will give you what you want and that you will lead a comfortable life here on earth. If people would take the time to read Christ’s words and read what life was like for the early Christian believers they would understand that comfort in this world was never what it was about. It is about giving yourself to God and doing God’s will no matter what the earthly consequences. It is about understanding that God’s perspective is an eternal perspective and that what we are living for is God’s glory, not ours.<BR/><BR/>God Bless,<BR/><BR/>BillBelle Gearyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07979223755535270232noreply@blogger.com
