Does God Have A Hero?

When you close
your eyes
and see God
within,
You are Gods Hero.

When you open your eyes
and see God in everyone,
You are Gods Hero.

When you let anger pass you by,
with a smile
upon your lips,
You are Gods Hero.

When you hold love
in your heart
and peace within
your mind,
You are Gods Hero.

When you behold
the beauty of a
flower
and feel the kinship
with all living things,
You are Gods Hero.

When you look at somone
who is different,
and see only how you are alike,
You are Gods Hero.

When you feel more joy
in helping another,
than you do
in your own personal gain,
You are truly Gods Hero.

When you here
the true name of God
in every mans religion,
You are a Hero to God.

When you can hear
the silent voice of God
in the wind,
the birds,
or even the
roar of a crowd,
You will hear God
calling You a Hero.

When you take time everyday,
for silent communion
with God,
She listens and You are Gods Hero.

When you can see
beyond appearences
and have the wisdom
to see Gods truth
that we are all truly One,
Again,you are Gods Hero.

When you have compassion
and love for
All,
even those with whom
you may disagree,
You are a Hero to all mankind and to God.

When you know
that forgiveness is blessed
and forgive all,
No matter how large or small
that trespass against you,
You will be Gods Hero.

When you give love to all,
holding none back,
you will know love
for yourself,
for God,
And you will be Her Hero.

When you demonstrate patiance
with others
and see Divine Good
in everyone and every event,
You will have learned to see God everywhere,
and you will be Her Hero.

When you trust in God
with all your heart,
Knowing that the Universe
is formed from Love,
your trust will pay off
with love,abundance,joy,
And the knowledge
That you are Gods Hero.

When your desire to know God
is so great
that in desperation
you finally give up searching for Her
where She never has been found,
You will find Her
where She has always been,
Watching,
Waiting,
Within,
Ready to welcome
Her Hero Home.

Instructions - sometimes we all need them. The Dali Lama succinctly stated that his religion is kindness. I'm a little more wordy. The essence is the same though - kindness counts. And it takes practice. We have the perfect starting point too - ourselves. Be patient, be mindful of self talk, relax, breathe - it's that simple. The wisdom found in kindness is in knowing that we can all - always - begin again. We can start right now.

Peace,
