|  Spiritual Peace
You are reading from the book Touchstones. Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail. --John Donne All of us have some difficult circumstances to face today. Some among us find ourselves in the hospital or in jail. Others are worried about pressures and frustrations at work. Tensions and concerns about war and the future of the world affect us all. We have many uncontrollable circumstances in our lives, but we don't have to give ourselves over to them. A man's body may be in jail while in his heart he is free. We build a palace for our spirits by maintaining contact with our Higher Power. We are always within the circle of God's love. Always! Knowing that helps us make peace with the limits on what we can do about our situations. Then we can go forth working to make peace in our relationships, accomplish what is possible in our lives, and make a contribution to others. Today, I will remember that the frustrations around me are not all of who I am. When I am at peace within, I live among spiritual riches.

and that is all I am trying to seek today... to keep myself in my God bubble... full of love.. and the belief I am worthy of that Godly love... that is the steady... undying source of power in my life... the great.... leveler... that picks me up when my times are down... or grounds me when I am lifting off in my dysfunction... my compass.. my solace... my... I'll never be alone again... Thanks Ann... for food for reflection... | |
