Query:
I’ve a tough time believing that the power to endure is one thing to be glad about. I preserve on the lookout for God, I hearken to what individuals say however I need to see and realize it with out having to take anybody’s phrase, with out everybody else’s concepts. I need to consider in a God of affection, a universe of abundance, an unfathomable good behind all of it. I don’t see it. I see good, I see the sweetness within the bushes, within the earth as I run it via my fingers, I really feel the love and empathy of others tales and lives. I do know compassion, and equanimity with animals and all individuals, however then I have a look at my life and the struggles. The arduous occasions financially, the seeming unhealthy “luck.” It’s simply circumstance it’s not anybody’s fault. However I discover that arduous to swallow. As a guardian I consider there are different methods to study classes and values with out hardship, and that consequence doesn’t must equal struggling. I consider Maya Angelou and her story of how the three easy phrases “God loves me” impacted her a lot, and I feel okay I see the blessing in simply being alive, in with the ability to breathe and stay and love, I see that. It’s fantastic and superb. I see the grace and sweetness, however it appears then that to stay means to endure typically. Is that it? I all the time thought that struggling was pointless, and there’s an enormous distinction between that and never getting what you need. If God loves me, why can’t he/she/it assist in the areas the place I’m truly struggling? What good does a universe of magnificence do if I’m no in a position to see it as a result of I’m too busy making an attempt to outlive? It appears to me then God is detached and I might by no means be detached to my youngsters and their ache. I might by no means let my youngsters endure to study, I might discover one other means. You don’t want to the touch the range to know the burn, there’s one other means, via data and caring rationalization and demonstration. No ache no acquire appears so archaic. Why ought to I be glad about the power to endure?
Response:
Struggling is due the misperception of your relationship to wholeness. Seeing your self as separate from others and the universe as an entire is the supply of struggling. Understanding our true nature as the identical actuality as cosmic existence offers us the deep expertise of connectedness, love, compassion, and pleasure. This removes struggling. Life is right here to be loved, to not endure. Struggling has nothing to do with God’s nature or about studying classes. The usage of gratitude is in connecting us to the supply of pleasure and appreciation inside as our deeper actuality, our increased self, in order that we discover our fact past the struggling.
