Begin Anew

The Light of God within me eliminates all shadows. THE LIGHT OF GOD WITHIN ME shows me the highest way as I begin my life anew this day.

Isn’t it exciting to be able to begin anew? If we had to live with all of our mistakes of the past, we would be too burdened to go on. We need to cleanse our minds and hearts of error thoughts and feelings daily—not just once a year or on some special occasion.

We do not save the pieces of paper on which we have made errors, do we? We do not keep the burned toast, the broken dishes, the torn garments. Yet many seem to hold on to the memory of an ill-spoken word, an unwise action, a wrong choice.

We must let these things go, else they will soon clutter up our lives and leave no room for new exciting joy to enter. Each moment is new. Each thought can be a fresh beginning. As we ask Divine Spirit within our being to guide us, to direct us, to work through us, we will find we do not make the wrong choices and unwise decisions that at one time may have marred our happiness. In the awareness of God, there is perfect peace.

Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. (Isaiah 43:19)

Your Divine Plan

By Rev. Joyce Kramer

Transcript of a radio broadcast by Rev. Joyce Kramer, January 21, 2014.

What do you want out of life? Do you know? Few people have any real concrete picture of just what they want out of life. Consequently it seems that they live at the mercy of someone or something other than themselves. Thus we have the belief that we are the victim of things over which we have little or no control.

Each and every person is created with the ability and the power to determine his own future. Man is not at the whim of fate, luck, or chance. Neither is he created to be at the mercy of another person [ . . .]

The Joyce Kramer Ministries logo depicts a dogwood tree planted across the entrance to the church that Rev. Kramer founded in Virginia Beach. Transplanted from her brother’s property in Charlottesville, for eighteen months the tree seemed nothing more than a lifeless stick in the ground. Finally, on a Wednesday afternoon, the decision was made to dig it up, but the lawn maintenance man did not have a shovel with him. The next week, he said, he would come back and discard the dead tree. But that Sunday when Rev. Kramer arrived at church, she noticed a single leaf had appeared on the otherwise barren stick. They left the tree in place, and it grew into one of the most beautiful on the property. This flowering dogwood represents the message of Joyce Kramer Ministries: Growth is always possible; never give up.
