Finding Our Way Back Home

Love is our Holy Work.
When we have lost our way in fear and hurt, we want to come home to safety and comfort.
When we have lost our way in anger and blame, we want to remember how to respect and trust.
When we have lost our way in guilt and regret, we want to forgive and love once again.
 When we are lost in a world of complaints, we seek to take action and make things right.
When we are lost in the sorrow of those in hunger, disease and war, we seek to remember their Essence of Good.
When we are lost in the disappointment of promises not kept, we seek to commit ourselves to what we agreed.
When we are consumed with the busyness of making ends meet and paying our bills, we see to be grateful for what we have.

Love is our Holy Work.

Love is our Healing.
Love is the trust that comes from knowing there is Good within all.
Love is the freedom to do what is true for us right now.
Love is the kindness that lives in our hearts.
Love is the laughter that comes with light=hearted play.
Love is the opportunity to serve those neglected and in need.
Love is the peace that comes from listening within.
Love is the joy that greets the sunrise each day.
Love is the blessing of the sanctuary of our home.
Love is remembering to greet one another with a smile.
Love is the wisdom that is revealed when we seek to know.


Love is our Holy Work.

Sometimes we need to forgive to remember to love.
Some need to have space and distance to love.
Some need to love themselves first to be prepared to Love.
Some need faith to understand and accept they are love.
Some need to create to see how they Love.
Some need to serve to have the experience of Love.
Some need simply to let go and trust in the Gifts of Love.
Some need to be loved to know how to Love.

Love is our Holy Work.

The world needs you and I to remember to Love.
Our communities need us to serve freely everyone.
Our families need the time and space to be together.
Our friends need to know we are there for them….no matter what.
Our enemies need to know we desire peace to know there is Love.
Our leaders need us to appreciate their sacrifices of time and energy.
Our workplaces need to have ambassadors of forgiveness and Love.
Our elders need to be listened to and respected to be loved.
Our children need our patience and guidance to feel loved.
And yes, we must love ourselves to be the Love we are.

Love is our way Home.
Love is our healing.
Love is our inner guidance system.
Love is the Way.
 

Loving you and all each day,

LOVE



There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer;
No disease that enough love will not heal;
No door that enough love will not open;
No gulf that enough love will not bridge;
No wall that enough love will not throw down;
No sin that enough love will not redeem.

 It makes no difference
  how deeply seated may be the trouble,
How hopeless the outlook,
How muddled the tangle,
How great the mistake.
A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all.

If only you could love enough, you would be the happiest
and most powerful being in the world.
