SYMPH - You are a very precious person. You are filled with tenderness
and caring for others and yet you have a strength that one does not often see. Your questions have brought you a lot of wonderful advice from people who care for you. God has already given the promises and the answers you seek. As you read the New Testament as Ariala suggested, when you see a promise that you would like fulfilled in your life, you may just claim it as your own. You may just say, hey God, I want that for me, and then say "thank you" because that's how quickly he answers. If you do not "hear" his voice, remember this quote:
"When Love is Great, there is no need for Words.........
For, even in the Silences, Love is Heard."

Just before you get ready to give your speech ....To yourself call upon the name of Jesus....Ask him to stand by you and to speak through you and to be a blessing to all those present......then give your speech . Beleve me Jesus will do exacetely as you ask him to.You ask and he will be there. You will do fine.

Faith is such a personal thing
For me, it's knowing that no matter what I do, what mistakes I make, or what hardships I may face, there is love that never quits showering on me endlessly. I tend to wallow in my own guilt (Italianish, Catholic, nuff said) for a while; then after I'm done letting my mother project on me, I finally let myself remember that the same joy I'm feeling when times are good will carry me through these rough spots, even through the gutter. I try to trust that love a little bit more each day, and it carries me through storms. That love speaks to me thorugh friends, loved ones, and within myself; that voice inside me that's telling me to stand my ground and don't be afraid is the voice of "God." hope this helps...

Yes, Symphony, I believe that...as for the Bible, I use it as a roadmap
to a better life. Your secret to happiness will be via a relationship with God. Some people try to clean up their lives, be good, stop bad habits and etc., but the secret is in maintaining a connection with God FIRST...everything else is secondary.
I'll be praying for you, my friend. Thanks for reaching out.

Symphony...
tomorrow will be hard but you will rise to the challenge, you have done many things just in the short time that I have been in blogland and this is one more thing that you will do well and with all your heart. God will be with yuo whether you are aware of Him or not so don't worry about looking for Him, He knows where to find you.

Symphony, sorry you have to go through this. God is in the eyes of your children, the smile of a stranger, the heart of your family, the memory of your brother and in the support of all of those who will be there for you tomorrow. Despite your great loss, remember all of the things that you still have. All of your feelings are a natural part of the process, I believe. My thoughts go with you.

Symphony, there are various ways of experiencing God. The first is via
the Bible. I do suggest you get one and start in the New Testament. Read about Jesus and His life and about His love for you and humanity. The Word is full of inspiration, good principles of living and encouragement. I also feel that when I read it God speaks to me. I ask, "What are you trying to say to me through this section, God?"
Another way to experience God is through nature. Spend time in an outdoor setting, near running water, a nice park, the forest, the mountains. Get around animals and spend time with nature.
Thirdly, I find God in others. I try to remain open to what God might be trying to say through my friends, a stranger, a blog, etc.
And finally, I experience God in myself, in my mind, my conscience and in my convictions.
I hope this helps and I, too, am sorry for the pain your brother's loss has caused you.

I'm sorry for your loss
It is a hard thing to lose anyone no matter the circumstance. I see that you stated you are trying to reach out to God? You don't have to reach far if your heart is sincere. God is always just a word away and He is there to comfort you and bring you peace. The word of God says "knock and it shall be opened unto you, seek and you shall find, ask and it shall be given".
You are correct that there are many 'spirits' about, just be cautious as to which one you get involved with. When a person is hurting, they are much more vulnerable, just be discerning.
If ever you need to chat, email me anytime.
In Christs' love;
Pastor Brenda
