For your consideration…
This is so true and we don’t give ourselves enough credit for the hug, smile, helping hand, etc. that we freely give. We don’t spend enough time thinking about the light we added to moment. Likewise, we don’t give enough thought and gratitude when these same small things are given to us. It is the little things that keep the light in this Universe.
There is a second part to this message. Instead of “bit,” the word is “bite.” We are reminded that every bite counts. We don’t have to eat the whole apple to receive its benefit. We don’t have to tackle a hugh task. We can chunk it out and do it one bite at a time. My friend, Beth, often asks, “How do you eat an elephant?” Answer, “One bite at a time.”
Sometimes the whole is too overwhelming. It can paralyze us. It can make us procrastinate. Remember that any bit, or bite, we do is better than nothing.
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.”
-Remember…You are the keeper of your light. Wherever you go, there can be no darkness.
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Take on one bit or bite today.
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
What made me smile yesterday…
-A beautiful day.
-One day at a time. One whole day without a brother.
-Catching up with Alex, Lori, Mary, Cathy, and Jackie.
-House cleaned.
-A fun bookclub.
-A good book.
Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
Rev. Chris
