ABOUT TRAVELS, ROADS AND PURPORT

When we feel deep harmony with ourselves, then it looks like the whole world begin to help us... Step by step we go deeper. But all we  need is so little - "to hear  the voice, and open the door" [2]. Somehow, a few decades of our life we are afraid to open the door. Maybe because we do not believe in? Feared that through those doors someone can take us out... We do not believe that through the same door we can be filled... 

 

Opening. Prayers for others. Instead others. It is not intimidating to open, when the door is half-open. But you will probably need someone who should unlock the door and push it?

 

When someone asks me any question, I think - who can know better than yourself. And the answer is - ask your heart. Where all the answers. If we are God's expression of love and goodness, then we need to share ourselves bravely. Thus, we share good and love. 

 

With the knowledge - who I am, from where, and why  I have also a target - to deepen this knowledge, to search for and to share it with others. 

Each of us must find ourselves. Find the door that closed in us (and these are always available), try to open it and to go inside. It is important for the completion of one phase, calmly and quietly, but surely closing the doors. And feel free to go through another door. We do not know what Grace we will be granted entered the door. This road goes through us, in us, after us, to others and to God.  

God expresses Himself in all of us but in different ways. We all are so different  but also so similar in our mistakes. God created us perfectly - such imperfect, errant, but perfectly clear goal - to be ourselves.

To have hands that work. The heart that beats. Eyes that see. Not all of these gifts are awarded. There are many people next to us who do not have these or have lost. But they are granted with other gifts: patience, wisdom, great hope. None is without any grace. Those who do not comprehend all this are not hurt. They just feel the fragile state of knowledge more often and then do everything with the heart, that means - correctly.

"The crooked will become straight, and the rough roads smooth” [3].
W
e must go forward, although occurring in pits, we must open the new doors. If too difficult to open them, ask for help.  Do not hesitate to hear others asking for help. A lot of things we do in our life, are most for our’ sakes and not for others’. If we share and open ourselves, we do the best for US, not fot others. If we lie, we lie mostly to US, not to others. If we are dishonest - it is primarily with ourselves, but not with others. If we feel pride or anger, we harm mostly ourselves. If we disrespect others, then we disrespect ourselves. If we are faithless to someone, we firstly are faithless to ourselves - our values, provisions of ideas.

Everything seems so simple and straightforward. But in everyday life, however, we are trying to vindicate this or avoid to think about it. This approach leads to our actions, which eventually becomes flawed.
We are too small, so that we can change something about others. However, we can strive to become greatly small, letting God work in us and to express His full perfection in our erring soul. We have to rely on Him so much that we would be absolutely ready for what things we will find behind the door. God prepares us with His "quiet spirit and fire of love" [4]. All we need to do – to share that experience and feel a true joy.

"God is Love. Let‘s be brave to live in love"[5].

God gave me the body - hands, feet, heart, mind. "... glorify the God with your body!" [6].

I am only a small moving point in the universe among many others. I do not know the direction. But I know that I am in a meaningful way, and that the world will help me to be so. Meaningful way - not that I do something in life, but because HOW I do all. With the love for God. People. World.
And the mostly granted in such life are ourselves, not others... Foccused in prayers. Seeing and sensing of small things. Thanksgiving and requesting – God through people, people - through God.
What about you?
