If 'God is love' (1 John 4:8) then those who live in love, live in God, and know God experientially. There’s no other way we can know who God is—or who we truly are—but to love and be loved. -- Fr Richard Rohr, Daily Meditations
The thought flashes: Love is nonresistance.
Naturally, I must ponder that...and I realize that, among other things, for sure love is nonresistance. The newly realized fact is that learning to love is and has been our unrealized marching orders.
Our spiritual orders always have been for us to love...plain and simple.
A good start was to find my difference between acceptance and nonresistance; i.e., acceptance is of reasoning mind, nonresistance is spiritual mind. How simple could it be? And isn't that the nature of still more spiritual growth? Complicate it, and we're in the zone of the reasoning mind...again.
If there is an of God difference, we can let it be. Our raised consciousness will enlighten us as we continue to loose it and let it be.
Thank you.
