Exerts from Letters by a Modern Mystic.
This was a series of letters which in the end I found very similar to Brother Laurence (Practicing the Presence of God) to be honest. I was thinking I am not sure where this is going to go because it feels like I have been here before.I suppose the one point that was reaffirmed to me was I must live in the now. Living in the moment is a great way to live. It allows us to experience God where he is right now, and where I am right now. This means we are looking for his best for us in any given moment. Oswald chambers wrote about "My Utmost for his Highest" which is so true and important.
However I feel if we neglect to realise that God also has His utmost for our highest. If we miss this, we miss the Father Heart of God talked about in the Prodigal Son. The Father has his best for us!I have a Father who loves me beyond measure. To grasp this again is freeing, because it allows me to change the filter of my thinking. It allows me to look at any given moment for my Fathers fingerprint and look for his best, even when it seems a dark place.
That is my task for the next week
Until next time!
