ícone We can count on our beloved ones

        It had been a tough week for him.

        The hardworking and committed businessman faced several problems at the Organization, which already existed for two decades.

        After a bad sleep night, one of those nights in which we keep ourselves up trying to find solutions to our problems, he was driving his five- year-old daughter to school.

        The girl’s happiness helped him forget, even if just for a while, all the battles waiting for him. He parked the car, and as usual walked her until the school entrance.

        They were just about to say goodbye to each other when she suddenly started to cry and strongly hugged him.

        She never complains about coming to school. – He thought. What could have happened? She was so fine.

        After a few moments she said to him: Daddy, I wanna go to work with you! – and she kept hugging him still in tears.

        He understood her crying and also felt touched.

        Nevertheless he had not told her what was going through his mind, she had realized her dad’s heart was upset.

        And not knowing how to express her will to help him, to make him feel happy again, to support him, she offered to go to work with him.

        What a nice and single expression of love...the kind of love that wishes to see those who are by our side feeling well, happy, and in peace.

        And there is nothing more complete and purer than a child telling her dad: I’m here, I wanna help, don’t feel like that

        Without knowing, we irradiate everything that goes in our soul. Even though we may hide in silence, we keep on issuing vibrations constantly. 

        Those who are more sensible may capture it. Those who love and care about us are always alert and ready to help.

        And yet in many opportunities the Divine Providence use those who are around us to send advices, comforting words or affection.

        Yes, our Creator speaks to us in several different ways. It is up to us to listen to Him.

        In the situation above maybe God was trying to say:

        I know there are plenty of battles to come and that you sometimes feel weak, impotent. But I want you to know that you are not alone. Those who love you under My name are by your side.

        There is no victory without a battle. There are no conquers without fights. The warrior who deserves to rest and triumph is the one who stands up strongly and keeps up all the way to the end.

*   *   *

        At the same time we are surrounded by challenges and fights we are also being supported by the love of the Divine Laws.

        We are never neglected, though sometimes we may think our battle is a lonely battle.

        We have a safe harbor in our family, in healthy friendships, and we must trust that everything is going to turn out just fine.

        Let us try to tune up with highly elevated spiritual plans through positive thinking and sincere prayers so that we can receive the necessary support.

        Let us observe life surrounding us and let us not allow ourselves to remain within the lonely caves of affliction, anxiety and self destruction.

        All the fights will be worthwhile. Let us be sure of this.

        And if many of us think life is made of uncertainties and easily get desperate, here is one more relieving certainty:

        We can always count on our beloved ones.
