GOD LOVES ME...THAT'S ALL

What doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul. -- Deuteronomy 10:12

What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? -- Micah 6:8

Truth to tell, neither of those quotes rings my bell. I don't doubt them, they just seem dry as dust...they strike me as the definition of boooring.

So I asked me, what does the Lord my God require of me? In the quiet came my answer: open mind, open heart, open fist, open purse...detach from all reasoning mind wants dressed up as needs...love all, every grain of salt and sand, every new born lamb and fallen leaf, every resisting thought and feeling...love thoughtlessly...and when taken advantage of, love that...love the person or the condition taking advantage...love the "calcitrant" and the recalcitrant...love.

There. That rings my bell...then my reasoning mind, not known for taking God's word without a push-back, kicked in with "Sounds good. Lots of luck."

I then opened my book and read: There can never be a limit to the unfolding consciousness which you are when you go beyond the reasoning, thinking mind. -- Joel Goldsmith, "The Heart of Mysticism" at p. 1051

God loves me sooo much.

Thank you.
