Dedicated to Aunt Margie - Filter

This post is dedicated to my Aunt Margie who passed on Monday June 21st.  She was the best example of a child of God of anyone I know.

The topic today is FILTER. Filter my humanness and live from the Christ within me.

When I stop judging God's creations or expecting them to be and do what I think they should do I am filtering out the humanness. I am allowing myself to see the Christ within them and me.  Having a God like filter allows me to not judge others errors and not honor the humanness that causes the errored thinking.

My aunt Margie handled error thinking well.  When she did feel she needed to respond she did so with a soft loving voice.  She would tell uncle Billy will a soft voice not to do whatever he was going to do to damage his health.  She never screamed at him she never kept criticizing him as he went ahead and did it on most occasions.  She never stayed mad or got mad at all.  Just soft spoken comments because she loved the man dearly and only wanted the best for him.

Error thinking does not contribute to the my highest good.  My thinking puts out energy that attracts like energy.  What do I want to put out? Errored thinking or unconditional love thinking.

Sure in human form I am going to get mad or be frustrated over people, places and things. Today I have spiritual tools to use instead of taking the other persons inventory and criticizing them.  Constructive criticism is an oxymoron. Construct means to build up and criticize means to tear down.

To make sure my brain is leading with love I practice loving everything in my view all day long.  I pause to say I love you birds, squirrels, weather, traffic and any other person place or thing that cross my path.

The Christ in me loves the Christ in all things created by God. When I find myself frustrated  I call my spiritual mentors and talk it over with them.  What I want to know is "what is my part in this situation."  Many times when I reach this answer I don't need to speak with the other person because my behavior is not their fault. 

I do learn and grow spiritually and the next time I express myself in a more loving way as Aunt Margie always did.  Soft and loving, no matter how angry the other person behaves. This way I don't take their inventory and criticize them.  I am learning and growing and remembering what would Jesus do.  This is who Margie patterned her life by and so can I.  Any time I screw up I can just stop and start over again.  Judgement free zone...
