TOO Good!

The common comment:

If it is too good to be true, it must be

got me thinking recently. Why do we as a culture take life so negatively? Is it negative to think this is a true statement?

I began to make a list of things

too good to be true - but ARE!

Number 1, right off the top, has to be:

Salvation. Redemption. Jesus coming to earth to find that which was lost. Immanuel.

When you think about this, it really is too good to be true, but it is true as many will attest. Thank God it is or we would have some really serious issues. Hopeless, Chaos, Despair, Unbridled violence. Oh, wait a minute. Sounds like the news. Maybe we need to start believing it is true.

But I digress.

What else goes on the list?

Number 2. How about the Beauty of Nature? Sunsets. Oceanscapes. Landscapes.

Awfully good. Awfully true.

Hmmm. The old saying is starting to lose some credibility for me.

Number 3. Loving, Encouraging, Edifying Relationships. Between spouses, between friends, among family. Granted it may not be true for us all, but if for only a few it still belies the original statement.

I suspect we could go on.

How about we get practical now and open our minds to the idea that

some things may be so good they are true!

How about a way to leverage your income to pay off your mortgage so early you can actually build a retirement - if you want or think you need one of those?

How about some natural products that are so potent, so "tuned in" to the needs of the human body that they actually markedly affect (dare I say "reverse"? and note that I would never dare to say "cure" because the FDA might jump all over me if I did) chronic dis-ease and a toughy like cancer?

Could these kind of practical issues that we are often faced with actually be impacted by something that is so good it could be true?

What might happen for us if we decided to believe it could be true????

I would love to hear YOUR story.
