OUR ONLY NEED

I was at a retreat once where the retreat master suggested we take a popular love song and think of it as us singing it to God. She suggested "You Light Up My Life" or "I Will Follow You"...thinking of God as the "you." It was fun and enlightening.

This morning I thought, what if God is singing to us? Ponder that.

This reminds me of my blinding flash of the obvious with my first dog, a seven-pound Maltese, Ari of Aslan. All Ari wanted was to love...he was the original if I can't be with the one I love, I'll love the one I'm with. He just loved to love.

My BFO was that we all of us have a little Ari at our core...we need to give love. Our mistake is in believing that we need to get love. No. We are loved. Our only need to is pass that love on.

Thank You.
