....the last shall be first, and the first last. -- from the Sermon
Long ago blinding flash of the obvious: We will never know peace until we let go of our personal sense of right and wrong.
My personal sense of right was that I get what I want, of wrong was either I don't get what I want or you get what I want.
The personal in my sense of right and wrong began to lessen when humility became a good thing to my mind and did not come easily...which is humbling but true.
Truth makes a mental U-turn when we are graced with our dreaded surrender...as in, you lose speaks our name, and we can only agree. That is the birthing of acceptance out of the womb of surrender...it seldom, if ever, feels like God calling.
That birth is the beginning of the mirror image of God working in our life. It brings the hardest lesson for us to grasp...there is love for any and all, or there is no love at all.
Thank you.
