I think the greatest gift we can give our children is to show them that devotion to God's purposes - love for all beings - is the center of all right living.

The ego mind both professes its desire for love and does everything possible to repel it, or if it gets here anyway, to sabotage it. That is why dealing with issues like control, anger, and neediness is the most important work in preparing ourselves for love.

The ego is always looking to find something. The Spirit can see what's already there.

The thinking of the world leads us to think shallowly and act too quickly.

Much like a GPS, love re-calibrates itself if you've made a wrong turn.

Putting love first means knowing that the universe supports you in creating the good, the holy, and the beautiful. It means knowing that you're on the earth for a purpose, and that the purpose itself will create opportunities for its accomplishment.

Dear God, May all the tears I cry, and all the tears I have not cried but hold within, pour forth into Your hands. Please take each painful thought and unhealed wound, and send angels here to me. I long for peace. Amen.
