giving and receiving

In life, we have to give and receive in order to see the beauty of God’s work and we all do it differently.  We have to give love and forgiveness as well as receive it from others.  Sometimes when we hurt, it’s harder because we really don’t understand why we had to go through that, but this is when we just need to be humble, open up our inner selves and trust God.  The goal of life is to help as many people as we can to be a light in someone’s darkness.
 
At times, we have to go the extra mile with others.  We know that this life is not about us so if we know the mission to serve, we should understand why it’s a need to do what is important in life.  God is working in our lives all the time; miracles happen and sometimes we don’t even see God’s goodness because we’re so caught up in ourselves.  We all make mistakes but the important part of that is admitting to our faults and trying to do what’s best for everyone.  It’s never about what we go through, it’s all about how we handle situations with integrity and love.
 
God wants to move us on our journey to serve and be better people, but we have to be able to receive His grace and be open to loving unconditionally.  Our today should always be better than yesterday if we accept God’s grace, do His will and humble ourselves to serve.
 
Amen and Thank You Lord
