I consciously and gratefully ponder how blessed I am that my goal almost from the first has been to do the Sermon. I have not done it way too many times to know, but I have done it way too many times to know, too...and each of those time has been the grace of God breathing.
My notes in my daily readings are my proof of the times I have followed the instructions to turn the other cheek...or to agree with your adversary quickly. In most instances I have seen that proof as love being returned for love. Best part...seemingly without the other even being aware of the inner workings.
God is so good to us.
It will be interesting to see in years to come (and I may not be on this earth long enough to see it) the end result with the JoB brouhaha.
To my mind, the end result of love being returned for love would have to be me accepting JoB with not a word...or thought!...of condemnation. There, that's the hard, hard part. Because, of course, that would require me to get over my own self, not JoB nor JoB's actions. Ah, God's work...through his gifting me with a change in consciousness.
This I believe...there is never a problem that does not have a spiritual solution. If there is no spiritual solution, there is no problem. There is only my ego Lucy doing my thinking for me.
Thank you.
