Question on Service to Others = Tara

[Guest guest]

Great sharing, Tara! You're really listening!

 

When we first start out surrendering to the higher Spirit, I found it

to be like a bridle on a horse. Sometimes we have to be dragged along

like stubborn mules, then we get used to the leading and the pull

becomes more gentle. After a while the touch of Spirit is just barely

felt, and then all we have to do is see where Spirit is " looking " and

we are led by the " look. " Its a wonderful experience when we are used

in these ways! I love it. Thank you so much for being such a great

illustration! Hug. Love, dhyana

her that it would be a nice gesture, and that if money was an issue,

she could even go to the dollar store. After all, I thought, it's the

thought that counts, and we ladies do love to have scented candles and

blocks of pretty paper, no matter where they come from.

to listen to her heart. That those who were giving gifts, were doing

it from the heart, not out of obligation or feelings of needing to fit

in, or any intentions other than love.

switch shifts with me..AGAIN..and not only that, but it was a 3p.m. to

11:15 p.m. shift which I'd be picking up. and that would make the

second one that week.

> Well let me tell you a little something about this beautiful

Kundalini..after I kindly stated that I really felt as though I didn't

want to work two 3-11 shifts, and I was sorry, but no- I walked away,

and it ate me up inside for the rest of the day. I thought of how she

had a date with someone from a match site, and she was so excited,

and she hadn't gone on a date in a long time. I turned and turned in

me all afternoon, until I had to do the right thing. I didn't do it

because I might need her to work for me someday, I did it out of pure

love. But the funny thing is that it was almost like it wasn't me at

all. It was like this force which was helping me to become more loving

and more merciful..and making me 'right' made the descision and spoke

through me, and my humanness just went along with it. I felt free

after that.

> You are so right- do and say and be..with love, pure love..and let

the spirit guide you when your humanness wants to falter.

> Sorry so long.

> Blessings and love to all of you,

Wonderful examples Tara! You were a sweetheart before, but you are

really " becoming " .

 

I have noticed the same thing, I have been led to do certain things I

would not have thought of before. It reminds me a lot of how the

Holy Spirit will sometimes " tug " at you .
