SHAYNA ABRAMS’ ARTICLES OF FAITH

There is a higher purpose for each and every one of us, but sometimes we don’t know what that purpose is.

If I try and trust everything is for the best, I can never be disappointed.  I am always looking for the best reason I can find as far as why things happen the way that they happen.

I try to remember that everything is perfect and as it should be.  This comforts me when things go wrong.

When I try to stop worrying about tomorrow and enjoy today, life becomes worth living.

Once you are happy, everyone around you is also happy.  Your happiness is actually catching.

The Universe aids in your growth as it does in the growth of everything else.  You don’t need anything but faith in the system of the Universe.

People are inherently good.  With the proper care (love), that goodness can be harnessed in the right direction.

When I try to love someone unconditionally, that person will automatically love me back – whether they want to or not. 

Our Universe guides us along an evolutionary mission.  Our destination is a peaceful world.  The more people on board to carry out the mission, the faster the mission will be a success.

Inflicting my opinions on others is just as harmful as causing other people physical pain.

When I talk, I must try to speak what is truth in my eyes.  If, for some reason my truth cannot be revealed, I try to refrain from talking at all.

I refuse to accept any other human being’s advice, no matter how much that person claims to know, if I don’t understand it.  For example:  my friend Jennifer is having a hard time losing weight.  She goes on a watermelon diet because she loves watermelon.  She loses all her weight in a very short amount of time.  She swears by this watermelon diet of hers.   Why wouldn’t she?  It worked for her.  But would it work for me?  I hate watermelon.

I try to give people the benefit of the doubt and trust them – even if I think they can’t be trusted.  Everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
