Where is God in times of trouble? God is the loving gesture from a friend … the gentle touch upon an arm that says, “You are not alone.” God is in the gathering of loved ones to give each other strength. God is in the beauty of a flower that catches your eye in your greatest moment of sorrow to let you know that life goes on and beauty continues.

You are never alone, for God dwells within you as Spirit. Call upon the Spirit within to awaken and fill your heart. If you do not feel it immediately, Spirit will send you messengers in the form of a kiss from a puppy, the casserole of a neighbor, the kind word of a passing stranger. These are not mere accidents … this is God expressing Itself as Love … the true nature of all things.
