esson 245<\/a>. I reacted in an unloving way toward P. And looking at it now I am more sad to realize that it took me several minutes to come out of self-righteousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n(The following is my rant at HS as my faith was rattled.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nWhere were You? Where was the prompting \u2013 the mindfulness? I was lost! I\u2019m trusting You to intervene, to bring the pause so I can check in with my heart. I messed up. Are You there, HS?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[Peace. \u2018Your peace is with me.\u2019<\/em>]<\/p>\n\n\n\nOk. I feel it now. There were no feelings from You then \u2026 no still small voice. No questioning within about my behavior. How do I go forward? I don\u2019t feel that I can trust myself to be loving \u2013 this is why I ask for help!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[Peace, again.]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please say more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[I am here always. You move away.]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was just in my head, trying to cook a nice dinner. How is that too far to be reached?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[Come back. \u2018Be still and know, I am, God<\/em>.\u2019]<\/p>\n\n\n\n[Your head\/mind is another universe, a world of your own creation. Come back to My world \u2026 Our world. Is there love in your mind?]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I think of others all of the time and how I can, or should, act to be loving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[But is it loving?]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes. Many of my actions are causal to love flowing between me and another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[Love is always flowing. Humans are the blocks. You could just sit still with loving intention, releasing your blocks to Love\u2019s flow. The work is not the Love.]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
OK \u2026 I hear You. I separate when I work. I leave God\u2019s world to go into the world where I must plan, focus, to do it all just right (by my own judgment). It is a very familiar place for me. Sorry \u2026 I did not realize that I traveled such a distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[Because you have lived there a very long time. You have been welcomed Home. Please stay!]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I choose to be Home in God as I move through my day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI will accept the way You choose for me to come to You, my Father \u2026 And so I choose to love Your Son.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nIt is choosing God\u2019s will that I love His Son, the Creation. No judgement. No attack. No ruminations on how to fix things in my own way. I love God\u2019s Creation, as created, as Tricia. I love everyone and everything as God created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dear Lord, it is all here within me and surrounding me. Please help me to see with Your eyes of Love as You would have me see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLet me not try to hurt God\u2019s son and think that I can know my Father, or myself.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nI think, that to reflect on giving and receiving, I can\u2019t know something until I give it. I can\u2019t know God\u2019s Love unless I give it. I can\u2019t know Self love unless I give it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Loving-kindness is key, no personal agenda, other than to give.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Help me please to get past the actions the ego wants to be with others and give as God wills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CAC newsletter today, the parable was the prodigal son, with emphasis on the egoic action of the older son. Cynthia Bourgeault wrote of the Father\/God role as \u2018divine mercy\u2019. The sower parable, CAC lesson of a few days ago, focused attention on the sower casting abundance over all with no discretion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If we are meant to know God\u2019s Love, we have to open to sharing Divine Mercy, love with no discretion, belief in abundance, sharing. Thank you for these insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
