It is these who follow the Lamb wherever He goes; these have been redeemed from mankind as first fruits for God and the Lamb. Revelation 14:4
Mine it is to speak or be silent. Yours it is to wait and to listen. Ours it is to meet here, Spirit to spirit, and to renew our pledges of love. Mine it is to have mercy on you, and yours it is to remain aware that you are in constant need of this. Only in this way can your mind align itself with My will, and your steps be kept on the right path.There is no shortage of mercy, no holding back on My part. It is My joy to have My children to receive and to rejoice in it.

from Echoes of Eternity: Listening to the Father (Volume II) |
A Word from Carol:
"I often hear this question: Why a "faith-based" diet program? Or even,
what does "faith" have to do with dieting?
My quest in the early days of this journey was to learn how to apply the
faith I had in God -- the faith that believed he could move mountains
and that he kept my life in balance -- and apply it to my daily
struggles. Each of us struggles; my struggles were primarily with my
weight, my self-image, and my self-worth. I wanted to take my spiritual
beliefs and put them to work in my daily life.
I knew beyond any doubt that God cared about everything I was concerned
about. The Bible says that he cares about sparrows, and even about the
hair on your head! So why wouldn't God care about my struggles with
eating? While asking that question, I looked up at a Sunday school
bulletin board and a simple sign that read, "God Has the Answer." I knew
then and there that I had to incorporate God fully and completely into
the nitty-gritty details of my daily life.
Does God have answers? Yes, he does. He has answers for all of our
needs. We just have to learn how to listen, and believe. That's your
first challenge as you go forward with the 3D plan!"
