We are born into the material world, and blessed are those who learn early that there are two ways to trudge destiny's road: by reliance on our reasoning mind (a constant push/pull) or by dependence on a power greater than our self (peace...slow but certain).
I think of war and peace...opposite sides of the same coin the core of which is one thought or, really, one decision...peace or war? One thought...welcome it and have inner quiet; resist it and our battle within is set.
There it is, the choice with which we begin our discerning life: the material road or the spiritual path? Our decision determines our life's perspective...as realized through self's eye or through a Selfless view.
We will rest assured of our better choice when we find our self praying not for others to change but for our thoughts about them to change.
Choose you this day whom ye will serve. -- Joshua 24:15
Thank you.
