Today I woke up with a sinus headache that wouldn’t go away. I think sometimes during the afternoon, it might have morphed into a migraine. I had to talk to someone on the phone today while I was feeling bad. Before I called, I caught myself thinking about how much I dreaded making the phone call. It wasn’t the person I needed to talk to; I just didn’t want to face talking on the phone while I was feeling bad. As soon as I had that thought, another popped into my head. I thought about how the light of God is within all of us.
Even if I was feeling horrible, I would still be overjoyed to talk to God anytime. I was missing an opportunity and dreading the phone call wasn’t doing anyone, especially me, any good. I made the phone call with a new attitude, and it wasn’t bad at all.
I feel like something amazing happened today. Ever since I started thinking about the light of God being within us all, I have been trying to remember that before I interact with others. I just keep forgetting and thinking about it afterwards. I am happy because today, I thought about it before. As if I can do it once, then I can keep doing it and it can become a habit. Soon, I will be able to see all my interactions with others in a different light. At least, I hope I will.
My faith saved me. May God’s peace reside in all of our hearts.
