ON ACCEPTING THE PERSONAL REALITY OF GOD

Blinding flash of the obvious: It is not giving love that we fear, it is getting love that we resist.

This is not new news to me, but it feels truer. I need not ponder this...though no doubt I will...I do need to inner accept the truth of it. 

Letting my thoughts ramble: There is no sense of responsibility in giving love...what is better than the feeling of new love, secret, cuddled in our heart and head. Whether it is love of a new pet, a new flower garden, a new lover...new, unknown to any but our own self...too early to spread the word. 

We may have no feeling of responsibility in the giving, but the getting, or more to the point accepting, love...uh-oh. Go slow.

In our daily search for still more spiritual growth, we have a whole 'nother level of getting. accepting, love. Accepting the love of God is no easy-peasy matter...well, it is, it is the human condition that complicates it.     

For many, accepting the reality of God...God, also known as Love...is an uphill slog. It feels less risky not believing than opening our self to the existence of an invisible God. Especially an invisible God that, it is said, wants only the best for us when His "best" seems a tish dicey to the naked self.

These are sacred thoughts whether we grasp that or not. They may seem to be just words right now, but they are in the birth canal. 

We are awakening...still groggy but aware. We let it be. 

Thank you.
