Service

Sometimes you are at a loss for what you may deem to be "worthwhile" service, service with an eye to the eternal, with an intent to provide a lasting rectification to a problem or error. It is delightful to realize that the human heart does seek to serve in ever more lofty avenues, yet I restate for you that even the small
things are of value, for small service, those little events throughout a day, accumulate. They create an attitude of acceptance in the receiver of such service, that sense of friendliness, of being deemed worthwhile, that the flow of time is favorable. This enlarges the willingness to receive guidance that
approaches the soul level. That higher form of service may not be receivable to one who is worn down by the aggravations that could have been alleviated through small services.

Many are perplexed over the question, "What is the will of God?" What I have just stated can be applied to that question. Working out the kinks in your own personality, your perceived flaws of character, your recognized scars from life, can be approached in these small steps. A traumatic event of the past is hard to orient in your personality. May I pause to clarify that these events are not always ones that can be rooted out and dropped, but they need not as well be continually harmful. But if they are oriented properly, perhaps experienced, grown from, and archived, you can grow past them without eliminating them, for they were a significant contribution to your advancement. But to confront a difficult personal chore like this, small, apparently insignificant contributions can be made that help you ready yourself for a deeper, more intense reorganization. It is a small service to oneself.
