Silent Time

Part of human nature is, that we are not perfect.

But the good news triumphs over all imperfection.

Hatred.

Carelessness.

Love.

Do you have to take decisions?

For example a young person may need to decide which education to pursue, where to work, etc. Or in any age, to decide on what is the best way to spend the rare free time.

There are some big and many small decisions that we have to take, which all impact our future.

What can help us to find the right way, to take wise decisions that turn out well in the future?

Do you feel at times poor and helpless?

Stupidity – whom would you call stupid?

Some animals show behaviour, which we cannot understand, hurting oneself or others. For example sheep might behave unreasonably such as jumping into the same hole repeatedly from where it cannot free itself. All the more important it is to have a good shepherd.

Also some among people show behaviour which we cannot understand, hurting oneself or others. And sometimes we might find ourselves showing unreasonable behaviour. We do not like to be compared to sheep, but there is an amazing all-knowing shepherd who has a perfect long term plan.

Do worries help?

Usually they do not improve life’s circumstances; in fact worries might lead to further problems. It is better to focus on those things which can be done. And to put into God’s hands, what we cannot influence.

Are you a joyful person?

Many people have lost their joy, deep down in their heart, there is no peace.

Many matters only give us a few moments of happiness, which vanishes soon.

What brings us real lasting joy?

Called from darkness to light

Who is righteous?

What comes to your mind with regard to obedience?

We may not like it and spontaneously have negative associations.

But let’s think about it more deeply.
