Charlotte, Lee and Dr. Obvious thank you for your kind words. Everything you write is true. These comments are the quick answer from God. Stay with the faith, help others, and have thanks for the blessings and even the misfortunes we have.

I'm going to take all this to heart and keep keeping on. Also, God told me today to just keep writing.

If it wasn't for my faith in God and His Son Jesus Christ and the still small voice of the Holy Spirit, I would be burnt toast. I know we are here on this earth at this particular time to develop and improve ourselves. Making bad decisions is part of the learning process and forgiving ourselves is essential to happiness. I find that taking hikes in the woods is a balm to my soul as well as digging in the dirt of my potted plants and vegetables. One must find their narrow path to peace by asking Heavenly Father for guidance and direction.

Poor decisions are often not having the proper resources for making a good one. It could be lack of time, knowledge, experience, foresight, guidance. If we always try our best though, God will know this.

I was feeling pretty lost for purpose last year in November, but then someone prayed for me to see visions of how I may help others. The next morning I had a very detailed dream that I woke immediately from after hearing a single word. Since that I time I've done researched, and taken action. Now I'm in a place where I feel I have a greater purpose - that is for others and not just myself. In a sense, by me helping others, I (or the Lord) has saved me.

I will pray for you to have visions of what can help bring you purposefulness and meaning in this life. I do feel it requires daily reflection and action.

Direct email me if you want more info on how I'm helping others.

Dear Napoleon, I have always felt to be an outsider in this mortal existence myself. Yet I have come to the conclusion that the entire purpose of our mortal lives in our fleshly bodies is the creation of our immortal soul and the formation of our conscience.

Being human, born of original sin, makes us susceptible to bad decisions. In my life, the realization that the series of unfortunate decisions in my life were meant to be lessons from God.

All that I encounter in life that is good, true, and beautiful are divine blessings that I do not deserve the benefit of, yet the blessings appear.

The misfortunes and their lessons are their own blessings.

What am I doing with the rest of my mortal life? I’m making every breath a prayer of thanks to God and the desire to make every moment here be as He wills it.

My eyes, my mind, and my heart remain open to all God teaches me and wills of me. Being a flawed and scarred human means I can’t always accomplish these things well.

We were created by God and dropped into these lives on earth behind enemy lines. We are the constant sign to the devil that God defeated him and all his schemes at Creation, and restored each of us through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Jesus came to teach us and show us how to live. This is my constant inspiration to do the right thing because it is the right thing to do, and leave the world a better place than it was before I came into existence.

With eternity being our future, our physical earthly mortal life is begun and over in the blink of an eye. But how we live our lives determines our fate for eternity.

Therefore, I live for eternity more than

Now. God Bless you always.
