My heart, my prayers, my love, my longing, all go to eternity. Faith, not believe. Bewilderment, not understanding. Trust, not command. Gratitude, not expectation. Reality, not ego driven ideology.
As a short lived, fragile creature living amongst billions of fellow creatures, also short lived and fragile, I endure the violences of deception, manipulation and physical altercations. The mania of ego driven ideology, with promises of certainty, entitlement and control, all of it evil, all of it violent, all of it ruinous. I am saved by God’s grace of a spiritual life.
I am my own part of God’s eternity, of which I live my life back to God, one day at a time. When I am dead and gone, my desire is that I am remembered fondly by God, as one who knew his place in creation, and was happy to have a place, and live my part of it.
People seek and assert identities, out of fear and a rejection of themselves. I once lived that way too, but as mentioned, I am graced by God to live a spiritual life now, and I am happy, without fear, pleased with who I am, exactly as I am.
My goal in life, my goal in sharing this, is that you too, find your way to a spiritual life, rejecting ego driven ideology, and loosing the needs for certainty, entitlement and control.
The essence of spiritual living is trusting beyond your ability to see and understand. The essence of evil is willful incompetence. These are your two choices in life. Spiritual living, or willful incompetence. Americanism embodies spiritual living, the principles of freedom, and simple competence.
