It is Love that holds everything together, and it is the everything also.  – Rumi (the untold story)

love

It’s hard to fathom why we exist and God’s part in everything. Apparently love plays a huge part. Also it seems that God’s very essence and his motivation is love. What does this mean for us mere mortals?

god’s kids

We’re not merely mortals. We’re God’s children. Our spiritual essence is of God. Our very underpinning therefore is love. If we were to focus on love, on being love and practicing love then we’re probably on the right path!

No longer value your complaints, for they are worthless.  – Vernon Howard

time wasted

We can always find something in our lives that’s not working. We can complain about people and what they did or didn’t do or about things the way they ought to be. Any time spent on grievances is time wasted and energy lost.

What’s the opposite of a grievance? It’s gratitude of course. While complaints sap us of energy, appreciation and gratitude fill us with the right stuff. Feeling down? Be thankful, express gratitude…

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM grateful inside and out!
