“Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God; But only he who sees, takes off his shoes - The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.” -- Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Today I wondered, how often do I miss heaven on earth? Monthly. Weekly. Daily. Hourly.
by the minute do I forget to remove my shoes.
Today I learned, we are to walk in the light of His love, not simply bask in it.
too often when I seek the light, I seek it to bask in it.
His rest does not allow us to stand still.
Everyday and everyday I must ask, "Lord, that I might receive my sight."
my spiritual sight.

"You are good. But it is not enough just to be good. You must be good for something. You must CONTRIBUTE good to the world. The world must be a better place for your presence. And the good that is in you must be spread to others...."
--Gordon B. Hinckley
