I CHOOSE TO LOVE, TO SERVE AND BE A LIGHT IN THIS WORLD AND DO MY PART IN THE PLAY OF GOD’S GRAND DESIGN FOR ALL “This is the day the Lord hath made— Let us rejoice and be glad in it.” —Psalm 118:24 All night, I tossed and turned and Sought entry into the realm of sleep, Truly exhausted from the rigors of the day, Truly seeking and needing simply to rest. Only as dawn stretched the night sky Did I find the secret inner stairway Down into deep and blissful repose after Entering a state of acceptance and gratitude. I am reminded that things will not always Go as I want, however well planned or urgent My needs may be, because this spirit I really Am lives in a body that will have it’s way. I am, after all, on the same train as Every living being, running down the Clickedy clackedy tracks of my life Towards that final station where I must get down and leave this world To continue this spirit’s mysterious journey, Over which I have no control except To choose my attitude towards ever new Levels of experience as they come to me— And so, right here, right now I choose to Rejoice in this day and all its opportunities— To love, to serve , to be a light shining in This pain filled world, to listen to the inner Guide and seek to do my humble part to Lift up my fellow man and humanity in The unfolding of God’s plan and grand design.
