In my reading, I never could believe in reincarnation. It just didn’t make sense. Then, recently, I started to understand that maybe there’s a possibility that it could make sense. I talked with my husband about it and although he liked my idea, he didn’t seem very interested in it. He is very utilitarian. Whether or not, reincarnation actually is real, he feels it doesn’t have much to do with his life right here right now. And he is probably right.
Yet, I can’t believe that all of my learning about faith and the spiritual part of life is in vain. Trying to understand God and how we come to be on this world can’t be a foolhardy endeavor. I believe that it is one of the most important things that I will ever do in my life. It is only through the contemplation of my own life that I will be able to surrender it to God. Only by introspection do I find my way to understanding that I truly do not understand everything. I gain a greater appreciation for all that life has to offer and I find myself wanting to be a better person. Maybe it really doesn’t matter how it all works, in fact, I often say, I don’t need to know God’s plan, but in contemplating faith and God’s plan, I find myself on a journey that is more than just about eating, drinking, and my own self-preservation. I find myself understanding that my life is more than just about me, I am connected to God and all of His children. It is only through understanding and finding the love of God that I can honor the gift of life that God has given to me. So, I will continue seeking that understanding until the day I die.
My faith saved me. May God’s peace reside in all of our hearts.
