LIVING WITHIN THE COCOON OF LOVED

To live by the Sermon on the Mount is to live a turned-over life. A turned-over life is to live in acceptance. To live in acceptance is to resist nothing. To resist nothing is love. -- blinding flash of the obvious

Even as we are making a mistake, building an egoic rue, regret, remorse, our Father within is fixing it. Fixing it meaning God is intervening in our life in our behalf...in fact, in behalf of all even as it is happening. Our lesson is to realize that all steps taken by everybody involved are required to bring us to where we need to be for us to experience the relief of acceptance.

Ah, here's where the Sermon speaks: Matthew 5:17-20 Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets....For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 

We will not get the relief of acceptance until we admit our wrong and try to right it, make our apology, live our amends...Do The Right Thing. There are no shortcuts.

It is living within the cocoon of doing the next right thing that we feel accepting, non-resisting...loved.

Thank you.
