Above all, Love!

In this busy world of ours, we can so easily get caught up with many things. This is where our ability to choose is vital, especially if we want to develop a spiritual life and value our peace of mind.

A simple question can be, 'will this lead me closer to God, or not.'

The truth is simple and also the answers we receive, if we are able to choose, and choose wisely.

The world is a wonderful place and we are naturally attracted to what gives 'colour' to our lives, yet we must be careful and honest and ask ourselves, is this how I want to spend my life?

The greatest treasure is this life is found in developing a relationship with God.

He has presented us with His human nature in Christ so now we are invited to fall in love with Him.

Happiness

No matter who we are or where we are, we are interested in being happy.
At times this is an easy chore as all we have to do is be who we are and have an interest in those around us.
This is self-evident in people who put happiness as a priority in their lives.
It means we are willing and able to work at being happy.
No frills or great drama, just learning to be ourselves and allowing others to be their selves too.
When we venture into the spiritual life, we can often find ourselves faced with difficulties in relation to ourselves.  For some reason, our happiness skills can be faulty or at least we become aware of the common flaws that are found in our nature and personality.
No worries. This is the best time to turn to God and let Him know we need help.
When we ask for guidance then it will be given to us.
Often, we can be surprised at the simplicity and ease of mind that we receive.
Perhaps, now is a good time, beginning a New Year to renew our confidence and belief in just how much God loves us.
'Ask and you will receive....'
Could it be easier?  Do we need to get lost in thoughts that confuse us?
Simply turn to God and be surprised at the experience of Love that we can and will receive.
