“I can,” Audra commented. “see how it would be difficult to trust if in releasing control of your life to God, you had to worry about the future.”
“Yes,” George answered. “It would, and that’s why we need to change another attitude, hope. In other words, we have to stop thinking about what we are going to face or do in the future and concentrate on trusting our lover to guide and help us through the future. And this means, that we need to change our attitude of what we hope (concern for the future); from the impact we will have on our lives to trusting that God will take care of it and that all we have to do as hope, is to think about our future sharing love with God in the eternal love fest.”
“We have to keep in the forefront of our mind; that there will be no more challenges or assignments after our graduation. Only the joy received in sharing love with someone on earth, multiplied countless times. So much so, that we cannot fully comprehend it in earthly body terms, and our spirit will be fully part of all the love that God and all his children that join him share.”
“The closest we can come to it is the joy we have during a honeymoon, or after a birth of one of our children. But you have to take that and multiply that hundreds of times, to even come close. And the alternative to that is knowing that for eternity you will not be sharing any of that love.”
“To fully understand this hope, we must fully understand and do love and trust. Because only then can the Spirit work in your heart, mind, soul/spirit and guide you to that hope. It is that hope for the future eternal love fest that will get you through any challenges, tests (e.g. dealing with forgiveness), or assignments our lover God will give us in order to bring us more fully in love with him.”
“And once we come close to this level we can see the quality of our life improving. We do not have to have concerns about the present or the future. We need only concern ourselves with pleasing our lover as we walk through the doors of life opened by our lover hand in hand with him.”
“But,” Audra inserted in the conversation. “I find it so hard to wait for things to happen”
“Well,” George responded. “Let us look next into “Patience” as an attitude to work on next.”
