What is God's will for us? Are we destined to a predetermined path or are we captains of our journey? Niche said "He who has a Why to live for can bear with almost any How." A purpose driven life or value driven life may be our Why. Values and purpose then help co-create our map thus, determining the path of our journey. Begining with the end in mind gives us a much better chance at reaching our destination.
If we sit still in God's presence between thoughts in the Now; answers come and perspective is gained. Then, we are truly being human-beings instead of human-doings. This directness of purpose, in sitting and being, allows God's Will to be revealed and ultimately realized in the moment. This is the moment caught between our own E.G.O. of "Edging God Out" and the oneness of Spirit minus our own mind chatter. Thus, God's will, our co-captain, through directness of purpose, reveals our "Why" in the mist of smiply Being in that etherel place called the "Azure Edge".
- Romans 12:2 “Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.” -
What do we all long for but to love and be loved in return? How is it that few of us find what we desire? Are we looking for love in all the wrong places? How about the people we choose to whole-heartedly give ourselves to and then find out that we have been betrayed? How is that few in our world find happiness in love?
Maybe it's because we need to first seek to love ourselves. Isn't that where this feeling comes from? Our inner work thus creates our outer reality. We can continue to give yet understand that others will let us down. Expectations are just that "expectations".
It helps to know that there will be weeds in our garden. We just need to pull those weeds early. This helps ensure that our flowers blossom and spread their fragrant beauty on the winds of change. After all, nothing remains constant except change.
So, we need to continue to love ourselves in order to be loved and know that love comes from within each of us. We can not control another person's choices regardless of wether we agree with their choices or not.
Perhaps our only option is to hold tight and cherish those rare moments of being in-love which are caught in between thoughts and reside in the “azure edge”.
