More From Jan Karon

What is sin? it is the glory of god not honored. the holiness of god not reverenced. the greatness of god not admired. the power of god not praised. the truth of god not sought. the wisdom of god not esteemed. the beauty of god not treasured. the goodness of god not savored. the faithfulness of god not trusted. the commandments of god not obeyed. the justice of god not respected. the wrath of god not feared. the grace of god not cherished. the presence of god not prized. the person of god not loved. that is sin.
Greatness Wrath Justice Of God
Nature always takes you at your own valuation. believe you are the child of god-really believe it. believe that you express divine life, divine truth, and divine love. believe that divine wisdom guides you. believe that god is your supply. believe that god is helping and blessing humanity through you. believe that you are a special enterprise on the part of god and that he is opening your way-and what you really believe, that you will demonstrate.
Children Believe Blessing
Give god the first part of every day. give god the first day of every week. give god the first portion of your income. give god the first consideration in every decision. give god the first place in your life.
Giving Decision Income
To find god, you must look with all your heart. to remain present to god, you must remain present to your heart. to hear his voice, you must listen with all your heart. to love him, you must love with all your heart. you cannot be the person god meant you to be, and you cannot live the life he meant you to live, unless you live from the heart.
Live Life Heart Voice
It is a wonderful thing to see a first-rate philosopher at prayer. tough-minded thinking and tenderhearted reverence are friends, not enemies. we have for too long separated the head from the heart, and we are the lesser for it. we love god with the mind and we love god with the heart. in reality, we are descending with the mind into the heart and there standing before god in ceaseless wonder and endless praise. as the mind and the heart work in concert, a kind of loving rationality pervades all we say and do. this brings unity to us and glory to god.
Prayer Heart Reality
Let's ask ourselves: are we open to the holy spirit, do i pray to him to enlighten me, to make me more sensitive to the things of god? and this is a prayer we need to pray every day, every day: holy spirit may my heart be open to the word of god, may my heart be open to good, may my heart be open to the beauty of god, every day.

To be fully human, fully myself, to accept all that i am, all that you envision, this is my prayer. walk with me out to the rim of life, beyond security. take me to the exquisite edge of courage and release me to become.
Prayer Accepting Release
Pounce had it easier than any of us. no one noticed a black cat in the street. he stopped here and there to sniff aught of interest. wherever our rat stopped, pounce was there, close enough to see up the rat's nose. i was so proud. now there was a proper god, making himself useful! since my thought might be deemed blasphemy, i said silent prayers to the goddess and to mithros. i begged forgiveness and asked them not to misunderstand. since i wasn't blasted where i stood, i guess they forgave me, or they hadn't heard my blasphemy.

Never, never, never, never, never! pray you, undo this button.

Look to it that you do not try to do all of it, do not try to do too much, lest your spirit grow weary. besides, a good prayer mustn't be too long. do not draw it out. prayer ought to be frequent and fervent.
