As we go through life we are faced with realities about ourselves or our situations that we must reckon with, and hopefully and eventually, come to accept. We all have them. Some of us have a disability, or some may have a condition like diabetes, that requires constant attention or monitoring. Some of us feel we are too heavy or too thin, too plain or too awkward. We may have had a poor childhood or even been abandoned there, by our parents. We may have been abused or victimized. Our affliction may be addiction. 

Situations may have been foisted upon us that we had no control over, or we have made wrong choices that we must now live  with. Our goals and dreams may have been dashed. We may receive difficult or life changing news that we now must accept. Most people must face up to, come to grips with, and accept that which they cannot change. They have ‘tough pills to swallow’ in order to make it through life. Non-acceptance or denial of these things can result in constant turmoil, anxiety, or all sorts of mental disturbance. So much of our unhappiness is based on what we think others might think of us or how they will respond to us. 

As we swallow these tough pills, will all our joy be gone? Will we see life as just a bunch of hurdles to get through or can we still see life for all the goodness that it holds for each and every one? Can we see life as issuing forth from our Maker with His meaning there for us, even in the midst of what seem to be insurmountable hurdles and pitfalls there?  There is an answer, dear one, and I am the answer. God’s love is the answer. You see, when you turn to Me, you open up the gates to the Transcendent mindset that has living love as its meaning for you. 

Living love is God’s meaning inherent in each one. Its function is summed up in this verse, “Behold, I make all things new.” Now as you open to Me and to the love that is there, you will have a changed mindset about it all. You will see life as an eternal spiritual experience and that what is unfolding here is a learning opportunity, a place to open to the greater Wholeness of you, no matter what is unfolding in your life. I will guide you in this, dear one, and so I ask you to turn to Me, and to the living love that is transformational for you there.  I love you mightily and know that you are never alone. 

The Way Made Plain

When a problem seems to overwhelm,

No answer yet, is clear,

Stay open for my guidance,

The forward way is near.

You’ve brought the problem to me,

I see more there than you,

The answer is forthcoming, 

Trust that it’s coming through. 

And when it comes, you’ll marvel,

The problem, now resolved,

For what had seemed impossible, 

Has easily been solved.

Each problem has an answer,

And clarity you’ll find, 

As we join together, 

With living love in Mind.

Love is the answer giver,

Its light will point the way,

It is God’s very meaning,

His Will made plain each day. 

Let not your heart be troubled, 

Abandon fear and fret, 

Abundantly God giveth, 

All needs, for you, are met.

Rest assured, I’m with you, 

What comes, as One, we’ll face,

Your problems, needs, and wants, there,

Are gone, with love’s embrace.

Your trust is really called for,

Yes, child-like it’s true, 

Yet trust’s the greatest wisdom,

Remember, I’m with you. 

Let’s close this poem with joy, dear,

The way ahead looks bright, 

God holds us in His keeping, 

And living love’s our light.
