My Dear Children,
Life goes on! We all seem to have our share of good times and bad times, expect both. It is fun to make plans and do the things you want. However, it doesn’t always work out that way because other people have plans too. I remember when we were going to Israel, our tour agent told me things will go wrong but don’t allow it to ruin your trip. Make the best of it and enjoy your trip. I encourage you in the same way. Make up your mind to enjoy life every day, even when things are not going your way.
There are opportunities around us every day if we will only see them. To see them we must stop worrying about what someone else is doing or accomplishing or what their abilities are. I must see what my abilities are and what my opportunities are and take advantage of them. God forbid that you become a ward of the government or of the state to make all your decisions and take care of you all your life. What a sad dreadful state to live in all your life.
My dear children I know that some of you are finishing school or college. You have many years to do great things, to accomplish things that no one else has ever accomplished. Do not be intimidated by the future or filled with fear. In my lifetime so many things have happened that no one dreamed would ever happen. I never dreamed Pauline and I would be helping to make hundreds of lives better through evangelizing and the healing ministry. I never dreamed I would write several books that would help people. I never dreamed we would travel over much of the world and bringing other people with us. I wonder what you will accomplish that you never dreamed you would.
Don’t expect things to stay the same. They are constantly changing. Our best laid plans have a way of going astray, take that as an opportunity to make new ones. Don’t take that as a defeat, but that God has something better for you than your best laid plans.
We live in a time of great change. You can’t stop this change. It is happening all over the world. God is involved in this change. It is going to happen and we live in a very exciting time. Our nation is changing, the Arab countries are changing, Europe is changing, China is changing. It is very important to be aware of this change. Don’t resist it but take advantage of it. There are going to be many opportunities if you can get outside of your box. Some people will be able to break free from there little boxes, many people will not.
My dear children I want to leave you with this thought: Some people do not believe in God; some people hope there is no God; I tell you, there is a God! Down through the ages, nations, governments and religions have tried to take the place of God and failed! Only God can be God! Don’t ever let anyone be God in your life, but God!
I think of you every day and pray for you all the time.
You’re Loving Father
