Our days can be filled with more “must-do” than “want-to-do” tasks. After all, someone has to grocery shop, pay bills and earn a living. And while we might choose different activities if we could, appreciating even the most menial chores can lighten our mood and that of those around us. Recently, I realized I’d [...]
When I want something, I take steps to achieve it. But in my quest to get closer to spiritual enlightenment, I’ve found the harder I push toward that goal, the further back I slide. That’s because God decides where I’m to be and that’s all that matters. There’s a reason I’m where I am. [...]
Illness happens to everyone. Sure, it helps to lead a healthy life, but severe physical trials can strike anyone at any time. People ask me if they are to blame for their poor health.

Free will presents the illusion of power The Supreme Being gave us free will—the opportunity to choose our own way of thinking and acting.

In response to requests from out-of-town readers that I post one of my presentations online, I've uploaded this hour-long talk on my YouTube Channel.
