No one can build security upon the nobleness of another person.-Willa Cather
Where do we look for our security? Do we look to our husbands or our lovers? Do we look to a parent or our childred? Perhaps we seek our security in our jobs. But none of these avenues brings lasting contentment.
Security of the spirit is with us from our birth. It's just that we haven't tapped into the source. Perhaps we don't even know the source, but it's been with us always, awaiting our realization of it.
No step do we ever take alone. Each breath we take is in partnership with the eternal source of strength and security within us. We have the choice to accept this partnership at any time. And this guarantee of security in all things at all times is the gift of freedom.
Our desire for security is God-given. The security we desire is also given by God to us. We are secure today and every day.
Each step I take is in concert with God. I need experience nothing alone. I can breathe in and tap the plentiful source of strength awaiting me, now.
