¨THE MIRACLE OF LOVE¨

FRUITS IN THE DESERT – MIRACLES IN THE HEART

(For Lent, especially Ash Wednesday on February 14, 2018)

Even though the World seems to be in so much gloom, encircling ominously all around, I feel that I am getting someplace!

In spite of an older age, I have found a certain wellbeing in my life and I would like to share this.

It was a long road of psychological analysis, perspective introspection, prayer, letting go of toxic relationships, finding good ones, adjusting to a more favorable environment and discovering the support around me.

It has been more than 40 years since I got married to an Argentine man.  Could it be that we are enjoying the Promised Land in old age before it leads to the end of our story?  Sometimes trials and tribulations make the Spirit grow and give us another kind of strength only possible by overcoming obstacles and through consistent training to help us to a higher consciousness.

What hope and light does this project out into a suffering World?

The evidence is held within the songs, music, and positive works for others that have developed.  Faith produces good works. It is no longer a question of faith or works, but that they are superimposed.  In producing concrete products, the natural outcome is to be willing to share and to serve rather than be served.  From the confidence acquired, a humble positive pride and good feeling develops.  The joy in serving is installed.  This is the true reward that causes miracles to occur.  The satisfaction in producing fruits enables us also to distribute them!

The satisfaction in doing for others is so rewarding that self-realization becomes one with the ¨drink and food, nutrients¨ given to all.  One begins to understand the contradiction that the ¨greatest¨ is the least. 

It still is not clear just where we are getting to.  It is more like a feeling; yet its presence is felt deeply.  It feels like miracles are beginning to happen; that miracles are advancing!  A time for Miracles!  ¨A time for peace, I swear it´s not too late¨!

Sometimes you have to go a long way, maybe beyond the limits of mental illness or selfishness or personal desires, to find your own innermost being.  Like a labyrinth of the mind.  It is so much easier once we find a direct pathway to the heart!  But it took many journeys in order to find the best way.   Coming to terms with old hates, hurts and harms is a personal choice and no one can do it for you after all.  Once you let go of all that you can feel the better possibilities coming.  Something like what happens when a converted man fixes things in the house.  It may not be flowers or chocolates but is much more difficult to obtain, and is surely more what you really need!  Of course, since Ash Wednesday is on Valentine´s day this year, it all makes sense and is totally acceptable!

Love in our hearts is the first and most important miracle!
