This is something I have found to be true without exception: that when we, any of us, focus on things in our lives that are passing away, we get scared, we get anxious, we get depressed, we lose hope; and when we focus on things that are being birthed and are coming newly into creation, we get excited, we get imaginative, we get optimistic, we feel drawn closer to one another, we feel as if we have meaning and purpose in this life, and we have joy. … It’s about keeping our focus upon God’s Dream. And the wonders and miracles. My friends, you know, we are given change as an ingredient in life. We can be frightened and anxious and resistant to it or we can embrace it as a tool to transform us. 1 —JIM KELSEY (1952– 2007) Thompsett, Fredrica Harris; Kujawa-Holbrook, Sheryl A. (2013-02-06).
