If there’s one tip for losing weight, staying healthy and finding true, infinite happiness it is this: Keep God at the center of your life through constant prayer and daily worship.



We humans are full of paradoxes and inconsistencies!    We have lots of internal functions going on, like nerves firing, muscles expanding and contracting, digestive processes, brain processing – and we’re not even aware of it all. The mind may say one thing, but the body does just the opposite, as in the case of eating from hunger verses habits, or feeding the stomach when feeling emotions.

Unlike us, and our restless lives, God is a constant.  We oscillate and vacillate, always shifting balances, seeking balance.  God is in the center, always stable and solid. God is in us, with us, is us.  We think we’re on our own, and apart from God, frequently forgetting who and what we truly are.  We forget to center on God, and while drifting away we think that everything’s all up to us:  that’s when trouble occurs because we just can’t do everything, we’re not conscious enough or powerful enough.  God is necessary, because we’re limited.

So, if you believe, believe you me: we are alive to seek God and remember Him.  Being God-centered at the center of your being will always be the best place to be.  God is our center and point of origin; our starting point for reuniting with our True Spiritual Self and the ending point of our problems and separation from God.
