I was in the
hospital for a kidney stone
·
Kidney stones are
small (mine was about 1.5 mm, the width of a penny)
·
How can something
so small have such a big impact?
·
A small thing
such as a misplaced, thoughtless, or unkind word directed at another (or
ourselves) can be the catalyst for suffering and pain
·
Jesus counsels us
in Matthew 17:20 that if we have faith the size of a mustard seed (or a kidney
stone?) we can move mountains
·
Even a small
dedication to spiritual principles will have a big impact on your life
·
Attending to “the
small things” with spiritual principles (before they turn into unnecessary
mountains) will have a big impact on your life
·
How do we do
this?
·
“Step back and
let God lead the way” (listen to our inner guidance… let divine wisdom sit on
the seat of authority)
·
This can be
difficult because we have been trained to be in control of our lives. If we
want something, we are told to go out there and make it happen
·
There is a light
in you, in everyone; the Light of God… and the universe and all that it
contains is longing to behold your release of this Light. The entire universe and all it contains is
waiting to join with you in the Light of God.
As you step back, the Light in you steps forward and encompasses the
world in happy union.
·
You are the Light
of the world, and that is no small thing!
·
“Step back” and
let the Light of God shine in every little thing you do
