Welcome to Friday Food! A little bit of food for your soul…every Friday. For the next few months, we are looking at “Downloads from Heaven”. In these “downloads” we are contemplating what it would be like if we got a message from God (however you understand God). We will be exploring messages from God about pain and suffering and healing and blessing and love and peace other topics too! When you read these “downloads” you will notice that they are in quotes. This is to help you think from your heart NOT your head. Don’t get caught up in whether or not God, (however you understand God) actually said these things. Just let them speak to your heart. I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below. Here is today’s download:
Be In Joy and Peace
“Be in joy and peace even in difficult moments Put fear aside and look for the peace that passes all understanding. There are those whose hearts are hard and only want to accomplish one thing — which is to get their way. They will do so at all cost and may, in fact, seem to have gotten their way even at the expense of others. Sometimes they hurt others along the way. Do your part to stay strong if this happens to you. Don’t be upset by those who would try to distract you from you listening to me. They can try to put your light out in all kinds of ways but remember it is my light that shines in you and my light will never go out. I love you.”
Ponder
Difficult moments in life sometimes cause us to lose our center, our peace. In these moments, it is important to pause and go deeper than the chaos around us. In these moments we have to put aside the distractions, the hurt, the anger, whatever is distracting us and focus on something deeper. I call that the peace of God (however you understand God) or the light at the center of my being. How do you stay connected to this source in difficult times? If you would like help in developing a practice to connect to that source, let me know.
