I picked up on a line in God Calling today: “You are only beginning the new life....”
I had never noticed that line in particular before. Just reading it filled me with hope and wonder for I know it to be true. That is true whenever we read it...at any and every stage of our lives.
On the spiritual path, that is an awe-inspiring truth...it's true for those not on the spiritual path, too, only the "awe-inspiring" is more like "dread-filled."
As long as we are living a self-determined, self-driven, self-powered life, we're living on the razor's edge of fear.
There are little old people, there are young people today, who are living in less than wonderful outer conditions who get up every morning filled with the grace of gratitude. And there are young and not-so-young billionaires who get up and go to bed every day with a mind living on that razor's edge, some of whom are making that work for them. Good on 'em, I say.
I'm sticking with the grateful folks who remain unmoved in their gratitude. There is no anxiety there, and when there is, all we need do is welcome it. Oh, it's a great gettin' up morning!
Thank you.
