VOTE with knowledge
By
Cheryl Petersen
The power of the vote is seen when people become informed and vote according to justice, honesty, integrity, and energy, rather than according to a party or sect. We have the ability to discern the spiritual characteristics of candidates and vote for the one who will rise to every occasion with moral courage. From…
Stepping out of eating disorders
By
Cheryl Petersen
From 21st Century Science and Health: In seeking a cure for digestive and food related problems, don’t consult matter. Physical particle/waves do not express Spirit. God is infinite omnipresent Spirit. If Spirit is all and is everywhere, what and where is this limited so-called substance? Remember, truth is greater than error and we cannot put…
Planting garden bulbs
By
Cheryl Petersen
Bulbs should be planted as soon as the ground is cool. In most parts of the country, this would be around the time of the first frosts, when evening temperatures average between 40° to 50° F. But you should plant at least six weeks before the ground freezes. Look for bulbs that are plump and…
Feel-good stuff

Cheryl Petersen
From 21st Century Science and Health: On our spiritual journey, if we sympathize with mortality, we will be at the beck and call of error and follow a zig-zag course getting nowhere. If we travel with the worldly minded, we get sucked into a nasty cycle. A good example of this is randomly walking around…

From 21st Century Science and Health, “The nature of spirituality is peaceful and blessed.” You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. Isa. 55:12, NIV
One chip is enough
By
Cheryl Petersen
Marketing experts adapt people to the habit of eating not just one chip, but the whole bag. The problem with this doctrine is we get fat and confused. Many year ago, by sheer circumstance I was recuperating from an accident and found I just couldn’t eat very much at a time. One chip, or rather…
I don’t want to be afraid of God
By
Cheryl Petersen
Leviticus 25:17New International Version (NIV) Do not take advantage of each other, but fear your God. I am the Lord your God. When I was younger, it was difficult to wrap my head around the demand “to fear God.” I’ve been afraid of my dad before, and the fear caused our communication line to…
