Today I’m sharing a post from one of the 30-Day Journaling Challenge participants. This is a question that I and so many have asked, and I love this answer.
“Good morning, God! Thank you for this beautiful day. Here the sun is shining, the birds are singing, the ducks are swimming on the lake, and a cool breeze caresses my legs and arms. Here the grass is green and mowed, the neighborhood is quiet except for traffic a little ways off, and people are peacefully starting their mornings in their safe, comfortable, and attractive homes. Yet, in other places on the earth, perhaps not very far from here at all, children go hungry, people are at war – with each other and in their own hearts, the songs of the birds go unheard, and Your Peace is unknown. Though I don’t dwell on those things, it saddens me to know that it’s true. I know I don’t have to save the world by running to every place of need, though sometimes it is creative for me to do so. Yet I sit here and wonder how I can best extend Your Love Joy, and Peace into this world in ways that will help those people I will never meet…………Larry”
“Bless you for your kind heart, Larry. It is through your consistent expression of kindness, of loving thoughts and actions, or Being in My Peace yourself that you see the separateness fade away and know that your heart is One with that of the starving child, the embattled soldier, and the people mired in anger and sadness around the world. You have an impact on them through your heart, consciousness, Spirit, and Being. You can build houses with Habitat, contribute money to Kiva, go to help in disaster areas, and many other things on the physical plane when those seem fitting. You can write your books and offer workshops. You can smile at people on the street and bring lightness to waitresses and grocery store clerks. Or you might simply be reading in your room or writing to Me. The effect that you have is all about whether you stay in My Peace and My Joy – Your Peace and Your Joy – in whatever you are doing. Give that to the world. It’s why you came here…………God”
