Gracious Enough To Receive

The soul does not care about what society values. It doesn’t measure self-worth by the size of our bank account, the size of our hips or biceps, the square footage of our home or how many cars are parked in our garage. These are not spiritual milestones, but they can be millstones choking our spirit. When we don’t materially possess what we feel we deserve, compassionate patience dissolves illusions of entitlement and self-blame. We quit picking on ourselves, we quit tinkering with surface improvements and begin digging deep into our interiority. With compassionate patience, insight becomes the inner authority we listen and respond to.
