STICK with GOD

BY VERONA T. GARCIA

I USED TO BE AFRAID THAT IF I DREW ON THE SPIRITUAL TRUTHS that I'd been learning in Sunday School, I'd find them faltering, and that they might even let me down. When other people prayed for me, their prayers worked, but my own prayers weren't always effective.

Still, I realized that if I wanted to demonstrate God's power in my life, I had to actually start using what I was learning. Maybe I was waiting for some super-inspired feeling, some kind of elation that I thought was supposed to come with healing. But my Sunday School teacher told us that you don't have to have that feeling in order to heal. You just need to keep holding on to Truth, to God. To me, holding on to Truth means maintaining that we are good and we express all the qualities that God has, even when we seem to be lacking.

For example, if someone feels insecure, I can know that that person is complete and has everything he or she needs from God, has no need to hurt others, and would not want to, either.
