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:

Deals and Shortcuts

Deals and Shortcuts“There are no deals or shortcuts.  Don’t make promises you can’t keep or say one thing and then do another.  Give me all you can until you have given me your whole self.  In doing so you will know my love, joy, and peace.  This is how you are transformed.  I am not interested in whether you abide by a list of rules.  Nor am I keeping score with respect to good deeds or misconduct.  I only want you to love completely and unconditionally and I want to help you do that.  Give me your all and you will find that you have all of me.  I love you.”  

 

There are those who believe that the best way to take care of the soul is to follow a list of rules that include do this or don’t do that.  To nurture the soul does indeed take some discipline but trying to follow a playbook for what you can or should do or not do is the most elemental way.  To nurture your spirit you will want to move beyond the rules that hold you back and learn the way to freedom.  Would love to know how you find freedom on your spiritual journey in the comments below.
