In the Present

Take the first step

"When we take one step toward God, he takes seven steps toward us."

-- Hindu Proverb

If our ego is to know spirit, we must make the first move. Spirit does not come down and knock on our door. It sits waiting for us to acknowledge it. We must want to change and take the initiative and persevere. The love of spirit will embrace us. But we must take the first steps.

In what areas of your life are you ready for change? What step can you take to open the door to new possibilities? It starts with you. Faith is not complacent; faith is action. You don’t have faith and wait. When you have faith, you move.

Simone Weil said "It is not my business to think about myself. My business is to think about God. It is for God to think about me."
