I know a special truth. I have proved it for myself. I act on this principle and have had great results in life and business. When I am down and out, I can take this "way of escape" and leave that state.
The principle I speak of is Action.
The Bible shares this wisdom when it says;
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves..... But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. (James Chapter One)
Act ! Be a doer! Do something that you have been putting off ! Write that letter. Pick up that phone and make that call. (Remember that the phone does not weigh 100 lbs.) Forgive that person. Give that donation. Just do it !
Any movement towards order creates pleasure. Action will always overcome feelings.

Proverbs
Proverbs 1:28
When they cry for help, I will not answer.
Though they anxiously search for me, they will not find me. For they hated knowledge and chose not to fear the Lord. They rejected my advice
and paid no attention when I corrected them.
Therefore, they must eat the bitter fruit of living their own way, choking on their own schemes.
For simpletons turn away from me to death.
Fools are destroyed by their own complacency.
But all who listen to me will live in peace,
untroubled by fear of harm.

Faith
Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."
Hupostasis, the word translated "substance," means "that which underlies the apparent; that which is the basis of something, hence, assurance, guarantee and confidence".(Spiros Zodhiates, The Complete Word Study Dictionary: New Testament, p. 1426).
We all "Hope" for a better life, or a guarantee of a bright future in this life. We also secretly covet assurance of life beyond the grave, Having our sins forgiven, Life Everlasting . The great thing is the very things we "Hope" for are promised to those who are Saved by the Grace of God Through Jesus Christ. And you can be included in this ! You can recieve by faith what God has provided. You can't earn it, you don't work for it, and you don't deserve such favor. You recieve it by Faith. And that FAITH is the assurance of what you hope for ! And we only hope for what Gods has said in His Word,The Bible.
If you would like to Know what God has provided for you, click on the "For You" link above on this web page. This information from the Bible can provide all the Faith you need. "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God" Romans 10:17.
