Here's the positive side of looking back. It is in looking back that we can see more clearly our life's journey. I recognize that my life began when I was in my 30s when I made the radical decision to return my free will to my Father within in exchange for His will.
Today, I see life as the proverbial long and winding road, and that we do come to the also proverbial fork in life's road. I see one branch of the fork as spiritually formed with the other all about self-will.
Since all roads lead to God, neither branch is wrong...in the long run, so to speak. Ah, but the long run is our life, the choice we make here forms the peace or lack thereof we get and then give in our life. That is, if we are ever to know God aright. [To be clean, I did not for a minute realize that at the time. It is in looking back....]
The good news is the choice we make, the branch we take, being right for us in the moment, gives us many opportunities on our journey to change our mind. With that, we realized we were put on the spiritual path to willingly seek still more spiritual growth to pass on to others.
Slowly our minds changed, upgraded actually...and one day we saw our mistakes...our rues, regrets and remorses...were in truth our pearl beyond price. Each priceless for it is the point of identity we share with others as we walk together on our co-journey of life.
Our minds have not just been changed, but exchanged...relying on our reasoning mind no longer, trusting a higher dimension now, daily we are taken deeper to our Father within.
We go beyond reason to love.
Thank you.
