Staying In the Present Moment

Robert:  Today I dedicate to the practice of staying in the present moment and taking one step at a time. It is interesting that something so simple should seem so challenging. The strong habit of futurizing and planning sometimes seems irresistible. But I need to remember that this habit is interfering with my experience of the loving truth in me and everyone.

Love is now. Its not in the future because the future is unreal. Its not in the past because the past does not exist. Only Love is real and Love is now. Do I want to know God’s Love? If I do, then I need to stay present and take one step at a time following Holy Spirit’s lead.

I am grateful for the wonderful practice this move to Florida offers. Though I yield to the temptation to plan much of the time, I am still getting stronger at recognizing it and stepping back to the present. This is a path that leads to my happiness. Its a path that leads to full recognition of my unity with everyone and everything in Love. It is my path Home.

Mary:  I dedicate this day to following Holy Spirit’s lead and to see the truth about every brother I see or even think of. That is a full time job. I can only do this if I am willing to stay in the present moment, step back and follow in quiet. I dedicate this day to this practice.
