For your consideration…

Today’s message is about getting along with people, things, events, etc. What a novel idea! Certainly, if we listen to any media, it would seem that this is a rarity. In reality, it used to be the norm. People tried to get along.

From the beginning, we learn to be part of our families. Then we go to day care/ school, and we learn how to get along with our classmates. It seems that things start to fall apart from our teens on. More and more we feel entitled. We don’t have to compromise or bend. We don’t have to try to like someone. But it is more important than ever to try to do these things.

Consider this J. Allen Boone quote…

The most effective way to achieve right relations

with any living thing is to look for the best in it,

and then help that best into the fullest expression. 

We are asked today to try, try to get along with all living things.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

 

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

-Remember…You are the keeper of your light. Wherever you go, there can be no darkness.

-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.

-Try to get along with all living things.

 

What made me smile yesterday…

-A beautiful day.

-A spent the day with Owen.

-Then we picked up Conner after school and played and had a picnic in the park.

-Progress on my book.

 

Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,

Rev. Chris
