Welcome To The Religion Network!

I'm Lisa Bowman, editor of The Religion Network, a multi-faith Web site. This site provides inspirational quotes through an
exploration of a new spiritual theme every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The Religion network is offered with the
conviction that inspiration can be found in all spiritual faiths, and furthermore, that finding the commonalities
among the world's religions is more healing than pointing up their differences.

Religion as an institution is a precious gift, blessing individuals and uplifting communities. However you choose to
worship, I hope this site enhances your journey. If you'd like to know my story, click on biography.


Dear Readers,

Despair can cloak our lives with heavy darkness, blocking out the light of Truth.
But when we feel despair's weight on our hearts, it is our right as children of God
to take His hand and step above the shadows into the sunlight of the Lord's love.
Even when we think we can't find His hand in our darkness, we can reach out;
He will find us and lift us into Light where we will sparkle as His precious gems.


- Lisa

 




God's Perfect Child


Truth pour over me as a healing garment
Filling me with hope and love and gladness.
I feel its power of love wiping away all sadness.
When down in the depths, the ladder of hope
enables me to climb the heights on the wings of glory.
My gratitude increases, I claim my heritage as God's own child.

Lenda Honegger
Christian Science writer

Hear my prayer, O Lord;
listen to my cry for mercy.
In the day of my trouble I will call to you,
for you will answer me...
For you are great and do marvelous deeds;
you alone are God.
Teach me your way, O Lord,
and I will walk in your truth;
give me an undivided heart,
that I may fear your name.
I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart;
I will glorify your name forever.
For great is your love toward me;
you have delivered me from the depths of the grave.


Psalm 86:6-7,10-13
The Holy Bible
New International Version


____________



 I called on your name, O Lord,
from the depths of the pit.
You heard my plea: "Do not close
your ears to my cry for relief."
You came near when I called you,
and you said, "Do not fear."
O Lord, you took up my case;
you redeemed my life.

Lamentations 3:55-58
The Holy Bible
New International Version



The Last Word:

Either we are adrift in chaos or we are individuals,
created, loved, upheld and placed purposefully,
exactly where we are. Can you believe that?
Can you trust God for that?

Elisabeth Elliot (1926 -   )
Christian author and speaker

NOTE FROM LISA:
Elisabeth's story is fascinating:
