What results are manifested

-- TO MY FRIENDS --
What results are manifested
in the future is determined
by the causes that we are creating
by the causes that we are creating
right at this moment.*
Let's summon up our courage
Let's summon up our courage
and put our faith into action!
Making a decision or determination
Making a decision or determination
means that we immediately
take action.
And as we do,
instantly boundless joy
overflows in our hearts!
*"If you want to understand the causes that existed in the past, look at the results as they are manifested in the present. And if you want to understand what results will be manifested in the future, look at the causes that exist in the present."
*"If you want to understand the causes that existed in the past, look at the results as they are manifested in the present. And if you want to understand what results will be manifested in the future, look at the causes that exist in the present."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"No matter what painful challenges we may face, we can overcome them. And we can turn all hardships into 'treasures of the heart' (WND – 1, 851.) This is the power of the Mystic Law, which can change 'poison' into 'medicine,' and the power of faith, which assures us of absolute victory."
