As Fr Richard Rohr wrote in his "Daily Meditation" this morning, You become the God you worship. Interesting to me, that is basically what my mentor many years ago taught me, i.e., I am the image of the God I adore.
As we are, as we know and show ourself to be, just that is the God we experience. Recognizing that and trying to will ourself to show forth a better person is working on the façade. No. We stay our mind on God and the things of God which allows our reasoning mind to come from a higher place, bringing forth the love, peace and joy already within us.
To stay our mind on our own self is to see lack, the birth of all wants, despair and dissatisfaction.
We go within to where the change is waiting to be released into our life as our good. It is our duty and our joy to know our life to be as God is within us right here and right now...lacking in nothing, filled with love and light.
To realize that is to know delight...and the grace of gratitude.
Thank you.
