“… work with a smile on your face … serving God.”
— Ephesians 6:6-7
The Message
from GOD THINGS
Presence of the Good … p. 18
Those in search of life’s meaning, hoping for inner peace and a sense of fulfillment, would do well to quiet the mind and to begin thinking about their own goodness and that of others. Goodness is within all of us from birth; it is our life-force, our very soul. In truth, goodness, or the Good, is that which we call God.(1)
If we truly come to know goodness, which is at once a function of thought and deed, then may we love both ourself and others. Then too do we realize that we are not alone in the struggle to find ourself, but that we are very much a part of a community of fellow beings on a similar quest.
In time we awaken each day filled with the Presence of The Good, acutely aware that our life has been transformed. Life’s meaning has resolved itself, while inner peace and fulfillment are at one.
