Line 744: Line 744:  
The passage of time is cyclical like the seasons. There is, as they say, a time for all different experience under the sun. Human beings make themselves unhappy when they wish it to be spring when it is winter, or winter when it is summer. Happiness is found in the cherishing of what is. You cannot stop time or change it. One can only adapt to its various requirements. Be happy in what is now and let tomorrow take care of itself. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2001-05-10-Symbols_of_Reality#Cycles Ham]

==Witnessing==
One who has unwavering faith has great power to effect the lives of others. Conversely, those who proselytize with great fervor and passion sometimes in truth have the weakest faith. Those who are strong in faith have need of few words, and when they speak to another, regardless of that person’s home base of faith, there is complete communication and understanding. Great persons of faith have always understood each other across the boundaries of their respective cultures. It is those who are weaker in faith who cling to its trappings as an anchor. Those with true faith soar above all these things to grasp the spiritual reality of each individual. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2001-05-17-Witnessing#Lesson Ham]

Human beings tend to cling to the lessor thing, to defend it, and hide within it because it is easier and takes less faith than soaring on the wings of faith into the thrilling unknown spiritual adventure that awaits all human beings. -. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2001-05-17-Witnessing#Lesson Ham]
