video of James reading with commentary |
It is not our brothers’ and sisters’ words and actions that upset us. It is our interpretations of their words and actions that upset us. We are not upset with them. We are upset at the way we are unconsciously choosing to perceive them. In essence, we are upset because of our perceptions of them, not them. We are upset with the way we are treating and thinking about God’s children and creations. Being all One, how we treat others is how we unconsciously believe we are worthy of being treated. Being all One, we cannot mistreat others and still think we are worthy of the peace and joy of God. If we don’t experience peace and joy, that is not God punishing us. It is our own misperceptions that are blocking our awareness of what is possible for us. Today, all we need to do to experience the peace and joy of God is to change our mind, our interpretations of what we are seeing and being offered. Today, let us recall that all our brothers and sisters are in our life to help us remember how truly worthy we are of God’s peace and joy. For this, let us offer them our gratitude and not our judgment.
Today, if you feel upset with people, make the conscious choice not to judge them. Instead, recall that it is not them, but your interpretation of them, that is upsetting you. You are upset because you are seeing a reflection of the ego’s judgment-centric programing and not God’s children. When you see God’s children as they were created to be, through His mercy and grace, then you’ll realign with the mind of God. Peace and non-judgment are signs of one who is aligned with the mind of God. Today, learn to use moments of anger, not to punish self or others, but to practice taking your thoughts and thus your mind and life back from the ego’s grip. In moments of despair, free will invites you to choose God over the ego, forgiveness over judgment, love over fear, and thus peace over pain. Today, dedicate the day to seeing your brothers and sisters only as God sees them, through Love’s lens. When you do, love, peace, joy, mercy, grace and non-judgment will become your interpreters and constant companions.
All glory to God.
Peace, Health, Happiness, Love, Laughter, and Light.
