There is a lot of talk everywhere about "The Secret". Apparently you can attract good things to yourself just by wanting them. It's absolute rubbish. Where does that leave the families of the school children whose school collapsed on them last week, or poor little Nia who was put in the dryer? No just wanting it does not work.
This does though.....
"Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4: 6-7
Be yourself
