For your consideration……
We all have the gift and blessing of “always”. Indeed, “always” is a criteria or benchmark we can use to remind us of what is really important. What gifts have we been given that qualify for “always”?
Certainly, love. When a loved one is not physically present or even has passed from this world to the next, the love remains…. always. Education once earned is ours forever and always. Our moral fiber is with us always. Truth is with us always. Mother Earth is with us always.
While we may not always choose to acknowledge it, while it may sometimes be inconvenient to remember it, while we may not choose to use it….. we all were given the tool “always” in our life tool box.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…….
-Meditate/pray…. feel your always.
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Feel your blessings and take them with your wherever you go and in whatever you do.
What made me smile yesterday……
-Catching up with my sister.
-A yellow butterfly anxious to catch my attention and lead me to the ladybug on the screen. Thanks Mom and Dad…..always.
-After years of dreams and lots of hard work, our Alex is an Navy airwoman and has her name on a plane. Go Navy.
-A good book.
Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
Rev. Chris
