40 Days of Love – Day3

40 Days of Letting Go, Letting God

From Release to Embrace

Rule 3

You can study God through everything and everyone in the universe because God is not confined in a mosque, synagogue, or church. But if you are still in need of knowing where exactly His abode is, there is only one place to look for him: in the heart of a true lover.“*

Today, we are releasing complaining and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to contemplate on the following question today: 

How many of us complain to get sympathy, attention, or to
avoid something we’re afraid of doing?

Don’t complain about Autumn.
Walk with grief like a good friend. Listen to what it says.
Sometimes the cold and dark of a cave give the opening we most want.
Rumi

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No3, the question and the  poem above and the quote below. 🙂 Let me know how practicing releasing complaining worked for you. 

“If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?” ― Rumi

Today we affirm: I release my expectations. I refrain from complaining. I can see the silver-lining in every situation.

Note : My writing is based on the book “40 Rules of Love” by by Elif Shafak and The Lent booklet by Unity.org 

Personally, I think it is important to find the True meaning behind the word ‘LOVE’,  understand it and experience it as a Spiritual Quality inherently within us. 

I am going to walk this 40-day Lenten journey contemplating on the True meaning of Love, Divine Love, Spiritual Love for me by experimenting with the 40 rules and quotes from the Lent Booklet. Every day, between 

the 14th of February and the 28th of March 2024,

I will post a ‘rule’ from the book ’40 rules of Love’ and an a release idea from the book ’40 days of Let go, Let God – Lent 2024′ by Unity.org. Then, we will contemplate on it and share about it in the UNITY EUROPE Facebook Group (CLICK HERE).
