It seems we all want to love and to be loved...but according to our own perpetual-motion notion of love. In our reasoning mind world, few others ever meet our mark...for long, but same goes that we meet few others' mark...for long.
There it is...the egoic perpetual-motion notion of love. Even blessed with the inner assurance of God, when I See Me through my ego's eyes, I long for "the feeling" of God (really truly, God) in my life. There is no enough then.
Lest we forget, temporary ups and temporary downs are the stuff the material world is made of. Up being Love, down being Fear.
We seek a dispensation through grace, and quick learn that in this life, we are constitutionally incapable of staying in grace. Having no true idea of what grace is, we secretly want it to be Perfect Peace For Me. Which we deny even as we want it.
Comes the day when we glimpse that nothing turns us to God faster than fear. We awake in a whole new world...we see fear as God in camouflage and are opened to "Go toward it," "Resist not," "Love and laugh."
All the temporaries of life become life itself...all are God in camouflage with our name on it.
Know this, fear will come. Never forget this: God never leaves.
Underneath are the everlasting arms. -- "God Calling" (and somewhere in the Bible)
Thank you.
