Quotes from "The Christmas Sweater" by Glenn Beck

Ultimately the message of this book is overcoming the largest of our trials. There is hope....it can be done.

"You are only alone if you make it so. "

"Don't fear the storm....fear the cornfield."

'Trust that the traveler is worth of the jorney and desination."

"Stop feeding the storm and giving it the power."

"No one had ever been lost to the storm, just lost in the storm."

"Don't Be Unduly Concerned..."

A friend of mine shared with me a bit of spiritual revelation that she had. The events leading up to this revelation were weighed down with worry, fear and deep concern for her family and their future. She found herself directed to the scriptures and came across this scripture and its reference:

Philippians 4:6 "Be bcareful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God."

The footnote for this scripture says: "Don't be unduly concerned about anything."

What I personally took from this was that if we are doing what is right and have faith in God's plan for us, going to Him in prayer and thanksgiving, we'll be directed for good and all will be as He intended it. To be "unduly" concerned and fearful about things can also be a distracter of the Holy Ghost which is absolutely vital if we are to learn of and follow His direction for us.

Faith

Faith and fear cannot exist simultaneously.
