I know some people believe in the Big Bang Theory and that is all right, God Still Loves you. For me when I look at a rainbow, or a sunset or a sun rise, I know that we have a Creator. In my mind I cannot see how a chemical reaction can replicate the beautiful colors in the world.

Psalm 19:1
1 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

It is wonderful to say you a Christian because you have been baptized and go to Church every Sunday, but, what about the other 6 days and 23 hours? Do you show you are a Christian by how you treat people, animals and the earth with kindness and respect, the way a Christian should?

James 2:17
17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

Are often in this hectic day and age are we patient? Everything we do seems to have to be done in a rush. We are busy, busy, busy. How often do we expect everything to happen when we think it should happen? Just once try to be patient and not expect immediate results. That patience can lead to peace, not a falling asleep peace, but a calm that will allow you to take a deep breathe, seeing the beauty all around you. as the old commercial says "Try it, you'll like it".

Also, it is very hard to overlook the actions of others, especially when it comes to something they have done to us. When we hold those feeling inside of us, we are the ones that suffer. The person who has offended us probably feels better because they have blown off steam. We are harming our own body by holding the offense close to our heart. Forgiving the other person, brings us peace. They will be judged for their offense. We will be graced with Peace.

Proverbs 19:11
11 A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.
