The material world is akin to a coin...two sides, one side good, the other not so much. People in the material world, without spiritual guidance, see only from their own life's experiences...quite often anger is their base for interpreting what they are seeing.
Point: When we try really hard to do love...to be loving...to have love as our ever-present guide, we are inviting an either/or response...either, a friendly smile, a feeling of acceptance, or, the middle-finger salute, a snarky remark...in other words, a less-than friendly response.
Our problem is us...whether we are living from self-will, trying to give love to get love...or from spiritual will, to give love.
That one word, try is the clue. That's the self-determined objective's anthem...try.
When we try, our concentration is entirely on getting what we want, which causes us to forget that God knows our needs. We forget, or have never accepted, that we have all the love there is which was gifted us with birth. Instead of trying to give love to get love, we love...from our inner supply which is already there ready to be freed.
My to-date experience tells me that to go beyond reason to love is the first goal for spiritual growth. The spiritual lesson be the first to give over in any conflict or potential conflict means we go beyond reason...else we will be in an escalating conflict with our own reasoning mind refusing to give over, give up, give in. Which, face it, is the solution to our own ego's dictates.
We must go beyond reason...beyond the reasoning mind...to love...to God consciousness, One.
Go beyond reason to love.
Thank you.
