For your consideration……

How often have we thought or said;

….If I only knew then what I know now…

….I would never have guessed.

….You never know what goes on behind closed doors.

….Do you ever really know someone?

….How can I be sure?

….If I had all of the facts….

etc. etc. etc.

We are on a journey. We are in a constant state of flux and learning. We always want to know more. That is how we are pushed to grow.

But do we really want to know everything? If we knew everything that led us to every moment and how it would impact forever more, we would be overwhelmed and paralyzed with the magnitude of even a single moment.

Our message today is that “not knowing” can be a blessing. We are not forced to suspend judgment on what we don’t know. We are not stopped from making mistakes/taking opportunities thus gaining the experience we need to grow. We have the joy of randomness and surprise. We are able to feel the satisfaction of accomplishment for what we had to dig and work for.

We are seekers and that is good. Not knowing everything allows us to be seekers.

Our message today is everything is in Divine Timing and Order. We will know what we need to know exactly when we need to know it. There is freedom in that.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…..

-Meditate/pray….ask……”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?” We don’t need to be overwhelmed with anything more than that…..just the next step.

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Let go of what is not yours to hang onto.

What made me smile yesterday……

-I slept in until 11:30. How did that happen? It never happens? It gets worse….I didn’t realize it until about an hour after I was up and thought the clocks had stopped during the night.

-A good book.

-Leftovers.

-Peace and joy at Stillwater.

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,

Rev. Chris
