ON DOING LOVE...GRAB A BROOM AND A DUSTPAN

I seek to be emptied of my spiritual shoulds...my idea of what a Christ connection should feel like...what I should be doing to prove my connection...what any spiritual connection should feel like.

I note that crash-and-burn was my original path to God, so my nemesis now may be my path to acceptance...feeling unloved, unneeded, unwanted and unappreciated may be my home base. If that be so, I can begin now to welcome those feelings. They, too, need to be loved.

"Beginning now" is my decision...pulling it off, i.e., loving the unloved, etc., will prove Thy will, not mine, is the key. 

With that decision, God's will, God's way has taken on a deeper commitment...daily I must recommit by doing love for the unloved, for the unwanted, for the unappreciated. 

Before I get too esoteric, I'd best get honest with my own self...doing love is pretty much make the bed, pick up around the home, call an ailing friend, offer to make their bed, pick up around their house. Oh. That has a ring of truth that needs some love itself.    

It seldom fails...we get some high-flown ideas of proving God in our life...I know! I'll save the babies in Gaza...and God gives us a broom and a dustpan. 

God is so good to us. 

Thank you.
