Loving, not blaming
When I was having a rough day some time ago, I began ruminating on all the reasons I felt things were going so badly: Our preschooler had wakened at 3:30 that morning, my husband was out of town, and our new cat was being troublesome, especially at night when we were trying to sleep. All I was focused on was, How can I make my day, my life, easier?
Well, making life easy wasn’t exactly Christ Jesus’ message to us. He certainly didn’t take the easy road himself. But Jesus did solve problems, and he proved that the effective way to do that is to lift our thought into a greater understanding of ever-present spiritual harmony. He said, “The kingdom of God is within you” (Luke 17:21).
The kingdom of heaven can be found now. We don’t have to wait for human circumstances to change.
