Never Stop

"Pain is the only instrument sharp enough to cut away the excess of self." Pain is what motivates us. Mother Teresa was motivated by the pain of the suffering around her. Martin Luther King Jr. was motivated by the pain he saw in the inequality of life based on skin color. The great spiritual teachers, Jesus, Buddha, Moses, Muhammad and others moved to act, often at the risk of their own lives, becoming selfless to address the spiritual, emotional and physical pain they witnessed.

And the quality they all had in common, they never stopped. Regardless of circumstance, fear or seeming failure, they persevered. So, just for today, when the voice of the true adversary fear begins to whisper in our ear, attempting to stop our growth as children of the Miraculous, we will take one more step, say one more prayer, help one more person and never stop, for fear is the soul killer and pain the motivator, knowing in our heart of hearts we are not alone, are growing day by day, sometimes quickly sometimes slowly, into amazing instruments of peace in demonstration and serenity in action.
