Do you think about that possibility these days?
Every day we are bombarded with news about the wars, famines, floods, and fires that are a realty…the Bible has a chapter called Revelation that speaks to these times. Should we worry about it all? Well…the way I cope is to cling to my faith that there is a Blessed Controller who has a plan and all I can do to facilitate good, is to be …well…Good! Meanwhile, we all have daily tasks and responsibilities to perform. Children to feed, dogs to walk, jobs to go to. These daily almost mundane duties take up most of the space in our heads to the extent when our attention is diverted to a calamity we are most shocked. Mass shootings, scary diseases and such disturb our peace.
Time to refocus on our love for our families, friends, and our God. Do what you can to help promote good energy, guard your words and promote healing for yourself and others. Some things are out of our humanly control, so build a happiness bubble around you and those in your circle, by speaking positively and use compassion to reach out into this hurting world. Maybe, just maybe we can relieve the stress of someone and guide them and ourselves into a meditative peace that only your faith can give you.
