ABANDONMENT


To abandon ourselves would seem to be a foolish thing to do. After all, we are meant to be responsible for ourselves and be wise.

Is it wise to abandon ourselves?

When it comes to God, our Creator, then it makes good sense to abandon ourselves to the One who loves us.

This trust in God will help us to grow in a spirit of trust for others. This is the foundation for freedom.

It's so easy to be free when we are unburdened. Often what burdens us is attachments to a sense of freedom which is not real.

Real freedom comes about when we are not tied down by material things; when we can open our hearts to God and freely respond to the graces of the present moment.

Abandonment is the key to freedom and happiness.
