Love Prevails!

11/7/2020

Congratulations, my family and friends. We didn't give up even when we grew tired and hope wore thin. We trusted ourselves and each other and the best in all of us. And now we are experiencing what Hebrews 11:1 tells us, "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." As we joined together, we surrendered into another force, a spiritual force, that underlies our very existence. That force carried us and supported us as it always does. It did not fail us.

There is so much I want to say. But for now I'll just say thank you. Thank you for staying the course and for allowing love to work in you and through you. And now let's take a break. We have the work of healing ourselves and each other ahead of us. For now, let's celebrate!

I love your Pledge of Allegiance Phyllis. I love that you remind us that Love prevails. I don't understand where that love has been the last four years. I rarely saw it extended to the President.
I'm not sure what kind of love prevailed in this election but I will do the same as I did for President Trump. I will respect the person who is elected to the office of President and I will be open to their ideas and plans and if I disagree, I disagree with that and not attack the person or their supporters. I am only bringing this up here because I am reflecting in what I assume is a safe place to do so. May love be at the center of all our choices and may compassion prevail.

Thank you for your comments, Candy. It is painful to see the lack of respect and meanness all around us. But there is so much love that is also being shown. I may not like the way others act and may decry it. But that changes nothing. I can only change the lack of love within myself and then choose loving kindness and compassionate action and peace. Love is at work everywhere and always, changing each of us, if we are willing to change. Thanks for your reminder.
