For your consideration…
Today’s message came in reminding me of something I read. It was an article about animal shelters. For the first time, I can ever remember, most animal shelters were virtually empty.
Why I asked then and why this reminder today? The answer is people need companionship. They need love. AND it needs to be two-way communication. Each of us needs to give and receive love to be happy, joyful, peaceful, HOPEful, etc. Consciously and sub-consciously we understand this. Our heart knows this.
Pets are a perfect example. They accept our love with immense gratitude and their love is for us is unconditional.
We are reminded today to love unconditionally…without judgment and gratefully receive love.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…
-Affirm…“I am loved.”
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths but spend more time outside if you can. Put your bare feet to Mother Earth.
-Give and receive love…all different kinds.
What made me smile yesterday…
-A beautiful day.
-A huge rain at night.
-A good book.
-A trip to the nail salon. I am smiling because it is over. It was tough while there.
-Catching up with both my girls.
Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
Rev. Chris
