God Things ... p. 5

“… your unfailing love
           fills the earth …”
— Psalm 119:64
New Living Translation

TOUCHED by GOD … p. 5

You will know if you have been touched by God to do His will. That which was so important to us before becomes as nothing. Save for the necessities of life, worldly possessions lose their importance. What becomes important is to give freely of ourselves to others with love in our hearts.

This relationship with God is one that involves our entire being: Our mind, our body and our soul. We become as One with God, talking to Him throughout the day, giving thanks for His love and for the new-found love that we know because of Him: Love of oneself and of others.

God’s love for us, which we know deep within to be so, enables us to walk a path hewn by Him for us alone, and one from which we neither wish nor need to stray. For the first time in our life we are free — free from all that bound us to keep from becoming that which God meant us to be. And oh, what a joy it is!
