“When a flower grows, free from effort, its petals naturally unfold to reveal its beauty. And so it is with an open mind.”

No Substitute for Human Blood
I find it amazing! With all the technology we have at our disposal, there is no such thing as artificial blood. Doctors can do amazing things: build artificial hearts, transplant organs, re-attach fingers and toes. But there is still no such thing as a human blood substitute. Donate today.
God has created the human body in such a fantastic way. If one little thing goes wrong in your body and you can’t make a specific protein or enzyme, your blood won’t clot properly. The placenta creates a barrier that protects a mother from her baby’s blood, but allows nourishment to be passed to the growing human. It all points to the Creator and his intelligent design.
It’s Mexican Week!
Although the attitude of meditation is effortless, the commitment to sit each day requires an undeniable effort, however gentle.

Kindness
When we’re kind to another person, it doesn’t matter if we’re seen or acknowledged. What’s important is our willingness to be kind.

Modern Heresy
Adults in the US—including evangelicals—are moving away from orthodox understandings of God and his Word year after year.
We took a look at this year’s State of Theology survey… 1/5
More than half—56 percent—of evangelical respondents affirmed that “God accepts the worship of all religions, including Christianity, Judaism and Islam.” 2/5
And 62 percent of evangelical respondents said that everyone is born innocent in the eyes of God. 3/5
But while evangelicals were found to be moving away from orthodox beliefs about God, they’ve grown more assured in their stances on cultural & ethical issues.
For example: 91 percent believe abortion is a sin, the highest level since the survey began. 4/5

Sometimes I feel like the guy in the circus parade walking behind the elephant.
We’re not ignoring, chasing, or rejecting thoughts. We’re seeing them clearly, acknowledging them, and letting go.

We meditate to remind ourselves that, like the blue sky, our enlightened nature is always with us. Even when it’s obscured by clouds.

Throughout the day, try to catch the mind when it wanders off and notice if it’s thinking or feeling.
