No More Disease

Creator of Life,
Whose being fills the Universe,
You fill me with awe.
All creation bows to you.
Nourish me with knowledge.
Protect me from the fear of the unknown.
Help me protect others from society's created fears.
Deliver me into eternity
As my mother delivered me into this world.
Let the learning that you impart

Through the toil of countless scientists,
Deliver a world free of disease, of suffering.
For you are the Infinite Mind,
All knowing, all powerful,
All Love.

For With God Nothing Shall Be Impossible

"For With God Nothing Shall Be Impossible."
An angel speaks these words to Mary.
Do these words speak to me?
Do I believe?
This is the battle within.
Learned as a scientist,
Can I reconcile knowledge and faith?
I must.
I can.
Science tells me how.
Faith tells me why.
God stands outside of time.
All is one for him.
Nothing is impossible.

Prayer for Beginning

Creator of all Life,
Who fills the Universe,
Your existence fills us with awe.
May all creation bow to you.
Nourish us with knowledge.
Protect our lives
As we protect the lives of others.
Deliver us into eternity
As our mothers delivered us into this world.
Do not let our science lead us astray,
Let the knowledge that you impart,
Deliver a world free of disease, of suffering.
For you are the Infinite Mind,
All knowing, all powerful,
All Love.

Renew Your Mind

And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Paul's words speak to me this day,
But how difficult his command is to fulfill.
We all wish to be surrounded by admirers,
Be a success in our work and play,
Have house, car and the latest electronic gadget.
Is that how we conform to this world?
Rather seek the knowledge of God,
Read the Bible,
Pray,
Study the writings of Godly thinkers,
Grapple with the truths of faith,
In order to
View the world from God's perspective and
Act in accordance with God's will.
Use material blessings to help others
And demonstrate God's love.
Use the advances of this age
To further the kingdom.
Be part of this world in body,
But not in soul.
Remember there is an eternity with God,
This life is but a moment.
