Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
“Faith In The Eternal Is Always Justified”
For the eternal is forever kind, infinite in its patience and wholly loving and living. Which can be tough now a days. We just need to remember, God is God, and we are not. Just saying. Faith in the eternal is always justified. It will accept you wholly and give you peace. Yet it can unite only with what already is at peace in you, immortal as itself.
The body can bring you neither peace nor turmoil; neither joy nor pain. It is a means, and not an end. It has no purpose of itself, but only what is given to it. The body will seem to be whatever is the means for reaching the goal that you assign to it. Only the mind can set a purpose, and only the mind can see the means for it’s accomplishments, and justify its use. Example: {I am trying to lose weight. I have stricken my diet. But I see something with a lot of calories! Yummy! I tell myself, NO! You can’t have that! Move on girl.} Peace and guilt are both conditions of the mind, to be attained. And these conditions are the home of the emotion that calls them forth, and therefore is compatible with them. So, faith in the eternal is always justified.
