Welcome to day 4! At the
midpoint of our Quest today, we are “just as far in as we’ll ever be out”.
(Anna Nalick)
There have been some times
I’ve seen with my heart and some times I’ve seen with my head. My buttons are still there, waiting to be
pushed. The difference now is that
rather than being swallowed up by them, I know where they are. I recognize them and feel when they are being
pushed before I respond. At that
point, I am more in charge of my responses than I’ve ever been.
Agape is power. It takes control of your life and adds order
to it. Until now, you may feel somewhat
pushed around by the events, people and even the places of your days. The ups and downs of your moods are dependent
on what or who you run into. This can
change.
Unconditional love is a
force. It is already running through the
very heart of you. It has just been
camouflaged with judgment and blame; with failure and defeat. These emotions are not truth. They are markers. They point out places where love is hiding.
There are no parts of you
imperfect. Loves imprint has marked you
permanently. You are love. Nothing you can
think, say or do changes that. At your
very core is acceptance without condition.
To live this way is not something you’ll have to learn, it is something
you’ll have to remember.
Moments of remembering are
announced with happiness. Joy is the
companion we seek. Until now she has
arrived unbidden. We can call Joy forth
in every moment with unconditional love.
This is the power of Agape.
In order to utilize this
power, you’ll have to change your operating system. You’ve engaged the world as if it has control
and determines your mood. It has looked
like this: You are walking along, singing a song and someone approaches. You stop,
look at who they are and feel however
they make you feel. The options are many.
Your new operating system
has been designed in reverse. You are
walking along singing a song and you feel
grateful, loving, happy, abundant and
peaceful. Someone approaches. You stop
and look. Your feelings can no longer be manipulated by
your environment. You’ve set them to run
on self-love 24-7.
What happens now? You can predict the outcome of every
encounter. You are in control; dependent on no one to fill you up or
push your buttons to get you going. This
is a powerful place in which you stand.
It is a place of sovereignty. It
is where you are home.
Your operating system can be
changed regardless of your age or history.
New hardware is not required.
This is not an upgrade. It is
more like a removal of a malicious virus.
Once accomplished, you are ready for whatever and whoever you walk
into.
Power comes from knowing the
answer. You do. It is resting in your heart and available for
every question, encounter and seeming setback.
Life happens. Sometimes we are
broke, broken or broken hearted. These
feelings do not define you, they are landscapes. Backdrops for the unique and gentle stroke of
your hand, your heart, your light. The
answer is Agape.
Love your self in every
encounter, circumstance and moment.
There is a part of you that does you know. He or she has been waiting a very long time
for you to get with the program. YOU are the One you’ve been waiting for.
See you tomorrow.
