reflection on a monday night.

Despite of being wasted from work this night, I reflected on LOVE and SPIRIT.

I think that love doesn't need to be discussed, it has its own voice and speaks for itself. The spiritual life is essentially to love. One doesn't love in order to do what is good or to protect someone. If we act that way, we are perceiving the other as a simple object, and we are seeing ourselves as wise and generous persons. This has nothing to do with love. To love is to be in communion with the other and to discover in that other the spark of God.

So I prayed...

Thy will be done, My Lord.
because you know the weakness in my heart,
and you assign me only the burden I can bear.
May you understand my love--because it is the only thing I have that is really mine, the only thing that I will be able to take with me into the next life.
Please allow it to be courageous and pure; please make it capable of surviving the snares of the world.
If pain must come, may it come quickly. Because I have a life to live. And I need to live it in the best way possible. If he has to make a choice, may he make it now. Then I will either wait for him or forget him.
Waiting is painful.
Forgetting is painful.
But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering.

And so after I say a Prayer. When I tried to read the Bible, this was the first verse I read...

***Philippians 4:6-7***

Do not worry, do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which trancends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

I really know that God is sooo good to me that he answered my prayers at a snap of a finger. Thank You Our Father!
