Letting Love Lead
Much of the time, we go through life letting our reactions and our ego run the show. How would our lives be different if we followed love’s lead? Try this exercise and find out.
-
If you’re tense, or in a rush, or bothered by something, stop and ask yourself:
“What would happen if I let love lead in this moment?”
-
Then, listen inwardly for guidance. You may receive it through an inner voice, an image, or a thought that pops into your mind, a “gut feeling.”
-
Check out any guidance you receive. If it could bring harm to you or others, don’t act on it. If it points you towards health, wealth, and happiness, towards fulfillment and expansion, you can then move in that direction with confidence.
-
Think of another area you wish to improve. Sit in a comfortable, safe place. Allow your attention to drift inward. Ask yourself, “If I let love lead me in this situation, where would I go and what would I do next?”
If at first the answers don’t come easily, don’t be discouraged. Just getting to the point where you can ask the question shows that your intention is good and that you’re moving in the right direction.
-
In the midst of a challenging situation, it takes great strength to even ask yourself the simple question, “How can I let love lead me now?”
With practice, before long you’ll come to see this as one of your most powerful tools for listening to your deeper wisdom.
