As a Christian I am very comfortable bringing faith in to our sessions. Some of my favorite scriptures are as follows:
Isaiah 26:3-4 "You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You." NKJV
Hebrews 10:23 "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful".
Proverbs 3:5 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your path." NKJV
Phillippians 1:6 "Be confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ." NKJV
My favorite being:Proverbs 3:11 "My son do not despise the chastening of the Lord, Nor detest his correction; For whom the Lord loves, he corrects NKJV.
Although I am Christian I am comfortable providing services to people not prescribing to the Christian faith.
