PATHWAY TO JOY AND HEALING

This morning, my higher self told me that no matter how difficult my obstacles if I approach everything through love then I will overcome these obstacles.  In the past, I demanded that other change or meet my demands, or tried to eliminate the obstacle by running away.  These are ineffective approaches as we simply cannot change others, and running away only avoids the problem never resolving it for ourselves.

When confronted with obstacles now, I think how can I affect a more loving result.  Can I offer an olive branch of peace?  Can I offer another a graceful way out of an difficult or painful situation?  Can I offer to find a kind solution for those who ask for help?  In each situation, I am looking at options that I can offer others, and not what they can do for me or how I will be recognized for my efforts.

My life is beginning to change dramatically because I realize it is my behaviors and actions that can affect a positive result to which others may then react to positively.   That power rests within me, and I do not need to demand that others change for me, or that others must do what I demand because I am right.  Love is not about being right or wrong or what other did or failed to do for us; love is about forgiving others and giving others a second chance after making mistakes as we are all human.  May you find love to conquer the obstacles in your life.
