All You Need Is Love

Songwriters: LENNON, JOHN / MCCARTNEY, PAUL

There’s nothing you can do that can’t be done.
Nothing you can sing that can’t be sung.
Nothing you can say, but you can learn
How to play the game
It’s easy.
Nothing you can make that can’t be made.
No one you can save that can’t be saved.
Nothing you can do, but you can learn
How to be you in time
It’s easy.

All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.

There’s nothing you can know that isn’t known.
Nothing you can see that isn’t shown.
There’s nowhere you can be that isn’t where
You’re meant to be
It’s easy.

All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.
All you need is love. (All together now).
All you need is love. (Everybody).
All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.
Love is all you need.
Love is all you need

For your consideration…
The first line of this song was what came in as today’s message. It was all I needed to track down the song it was a part of. “There is nothing you can do that can’t be done.”
Of course, this song is about love but just as important it is about recognizing our potential and stepping up into it. You are where you are supposed to be. Realizing the value of each moment and living it to its fullest  is what we are asked to do.
To do that we must love ourselves unconditionally. We have to forgive ourselves and suspend judgment when we have let ourselves down. The very best way to do that is to be our best self in the next moment. We are a work in progress. We all make mistakes. Consequently, we can get trapped in our own recriminations. We have to remember, those are past moments. We can not change the action but we can change the reaction. We can turn the negative energy around for healing in this moment. We can create positive and loving energy in this very moment to replace it. It is the way if we choose it. We have a choice. We always have a choice.
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?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Be your best self in the present moment.
What made me smile yesterday….
-A day off and since once again I did not sleep well, I was able to nap and chill out.
-A good book started.
-Alex is in Australia. HOPEfully we will get to talk today although it is looking increasingly unlikely. Oh well. We are happy she is getting some time off.
-The yard is just beautiful…at its best… and each day there is significantly more green on the trees. It is beautiful to drive down the street and see the daily changes.
Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
Rev. Chris
