It is reasonably obvious that one is not required to be a member of a church, synagogue, mosque, spiritual fellowship, or any formal anything to live a spiritually based life.
What isn't so obvious, and may only be my belief, is that living a spiritually based life is as near to a guarantee for peace of mind as it is possible to get. By living I mean utter dependence on a personal Power of Love, a power for good and good alone...with our reasoning mind always coming in second. I mean living it.
If that would be so, then it follows that each of us would be individually responsible for making that guarantee breathe in our life. Each making the decision to throw in 100 percent with the God of our own understanding. That then would be our life's journey...if our heart's desire is for peace, love and joy.
I'm guessing what we would find in choosing that path is we would be relieved of concern for our own self, for our nickels, dimes and dollars, head colds. and old age. We would be wholly involved with helping others...with God turning foes into friends and friends into family.
If we would but try, I'm betting we'd find ourselves feeling like a kid again...like rolling around on a carpet of green, green grass the day before school's out, anticipating the joy...with friends, foes, family and Ruckus right there, laughing and scratching.
My God rocks.
Thank you.
