“Beloved,let us love one another,for God is love;and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God,for God is love.” I John 4:7-8
Today’s reflection is based on a poem “Love Is the Currency”.
It deals with the value of love and how it is always best to let love flow without “pulling the plug” on that flow because we may not be getting compensated for our good deeds and pure efforts. I’ll be the first to admit that receiving timely and lucrative pay is important.Everyone is entitled to make a decent living and should be fairly compensated for their hard work and energies.
However, I have learned in my experiences that we should continue to love and do good without “always”, and the operative word is “always”, expecting and demanding “tit for tat” compensation in return. The bottom line is that “Love is the Currency” and we should let it flow… There are times when monetary remuneration may not be feasible or plausible under the circumstances. And,the universe’s form of trade can be so awesome,as it’s ratio of return is not limited by man made calculations or expectations.
You will get paid,even though it may not be in the form or in the fashion you had initially envisioned.Now,when “love” and “money” line up perfectly and in order,it is the ultimate combination,yielding endless and boundless prosperity and riches, a currency beyond measure.
So,bless someone with your love and resources today.
Listen in to the podcast(see below) for my recital of the poem along with introductory and closing remarks providing further insight.
Peace,
