GRATITUDE, THE EVER-PRESENT GIFT

Ego consciousness is a gift from God...or so I read this morning. I wonder, is that like free will? A gift that we are best suited by returning to God? Thus becoming our life's work and joy?

Relieve me of the bondage of self...another part of my morning prayers. I suddenly realize that relief comes by way of gratitude. Thank you for the bondage of self for it is the ever-present thorn that makes my choice for me...Thy will, not mine.

In a life of choice between ego consciousness and God consciousness, gratitude is a free gift in either case.

Thank you.
