Heart of the Matter

 The human heart is at the heart of the human problem… 

 It’s part of our nature to blame people, places, and things when it doesn’t turn out like we want. 

This thinking is built into our culture as well as society. 

Don’t trust me, just tune into any news broadcast or media report and the finger-pointing and blame placing is the major part of the story. 

This thinking, when allowed to dominate our thoughts, covers our hearts and makes it hard for the Sunlight of the Spirit to flow through our hearts and minds. 

Now don’t get me wrong, bad things do happen and there can be other people, places, or things involved. That is what our justice system is for. 

What about the veil of negativity and closed-mindedness we are left with covering our hearts and minds? 

I mean it’s hard to trust others, especially these days, 

It is a spiritual principle that we have to GIVE in order to GET, 

We must put away our negativity and mistrust and replace it with grace and faith. 

If we can open our hearts to allow Jesus to fill us with His Holy Spirit and to cover and protect us with His grace, then things turn out better… 

Check your experience… 

“Here was something at work in a human heart which had done the impossible.” Big Book pg 11 

Lord, let us turn our hearts and minds over to the care of Your will and grace, AMEN. 

"Yes, even today when they read Moses' writings, their hearts are covered with that veil, and they do not understand." 2 Corinthians 3:15 

Have a blessed day Y’all!

Caller ID

Looking at your Caller ID… 

Modern technology provides us with many conveniences that make our lives easier as well as more informed. 

From instant information available to all on the internet to digital medical records that doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies securely share, these benefits enable us to lead easier and more productive lives. 

One thing I particularly enjoy is caller ID. 

Back in the day when the wall phone in the kitchen rang, we had to answer it no matter what and we never knew who was calling. 

Caller ID has simplified my life. 

If you are on my contact list, I know it’s you and I will answer, if you are unknown to me, then you get to speak to the voice mail I check once a week! 

Spiritually speaking we have the same opportunity with the calls on our hearts and souls. 

God uses Jesus and the Holy Spirit to call on us through our hearts to not only help us but also show us His will for us. 

Because God loves us unconditionally, He gives us the free will to choose to take His call or not. 

What is our choice to be?.. 

Check your experience… 

 “There had been a humble willingness to have Him with me -- and He came.” Big Book pg 12 

Lord, let us answer Your call knowing You have the answer for us as well as the way of grace and peace, AMEN.

 “…lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God.” Ephesians 4:1 

Have a blessed day Y’all!!

We Get What We Give

What goes around COMES around. .. 

Have you ever played with a bouncing ball? 

Did you notice that it always comes back to you with the same force you give it? 

Now I am not trying to teach physics, but the ball example contains today's spiritual thought. 

I have learned over the years that my relationships with people, places, and things have the same effect. 

We GET what we GIVE. It's a spiritual principle. 

When I treat others with grace, I get grace and when I throw out grief and negativity, I get it right back. 

 Check your experience. ... 

"Just to the extent that we do as we think He would have us, and humbly rely on Him, does He enable us to match calamity with serenity." Big Book pg 68. 

Lord, let us give others the same grace and joy that you freely give us, AMEN. 

"So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you," Matthew 7:12 

Have a blessed day y’all!
