I was taught by example to maintain a prayerful attitude, to keep on working, and to sustain focus on ultimate goals. Many of us are under stress at this time. We have anxieties brought about by a complex of matters including social and political conflict. A prayerful attitude is important because it keeps our minds humble and open to insight, inspiration, and leadings of the Spirit. Working and keeping active prevents self-destructive paralysis and ennui. Focus on ultimate goals lifts our sights and validates our efforts with meaning and purpose – we work for the attainment of freedom, justice, peace, individual respect, freedom from fear, healthy stability within families, and the disciplines of love. This triangulation of attitude and effort constitutes a sturdy, true, and proven route to victorious living.
