THOUGHTS THAT LEAD US OUT OF SELF

It comforts me to know that I do not need to be a Bible-believer to take comfort from writings from the Bible. I don’t know a thing about Buddhism but I take comfort from many sayings of the Buddha.

Here are three singular thoughts from the Bible that I turn to a lot:

When we feel the road before us is too difficult:
Isa.45:2 - I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight....

When an unexpected or scary situation pops up:
Matt.14:27 - ....it is I; be not afraid.

When called upon to meet a life situation that weighs heavy over our head:
Job.23:14 - ….He performeth the thing that is appointed for me....

Thank You.
