For your consideration…
Today’s message is for the givers. If you are here, that would most likely be you. I would like to think that most people are or would like to be givers. They want to be of service to others.
Our message today tells us that the very best way to be of service to others…indeed the world….it to be the best version of ourselves. Be the person we were sent here to be. That sounds daunting and it is. But not if we do it a step or moment at a time. The key is to stay focused on our authentic selves. Nurture it. Listen to it. It will lead us to grow our minds and hearts with each experience. It will lead us to take care of our bodies. It will guide us through good and tough times. It will identify real from fake. It will motivate us and give us rest and peace.
In a nutshell, rather than let the external drive the internal, put the internal…the authentic self…in charge. Let it lead our way. This means we need to let go and have Faith but the reward is great. It is the surest way to becoming the best version of ourselves and the gift we are meant to give to the world.
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.
-Let our authentic selves lead us to being the very best version of ourselves.
What made me smile yesterday…
-Catching up with my Uncle Tim, Alex, and Bob.
-I have a good start on a poem I am writing for my daughter.
-A good book.
-Some more packing done.
Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
