Daily Devotions - Tuesday, November 4

Allowing Life to Unfold

“I was never told that man ‘possesses’ nothing.
I have learned, most importantly, that a WAY will only have reality
As it relates to living in the now.
Life isn’t the goal; it’s the voyage,
and the only reality seems to lie in allowing life to unfold.”

--Leo Buscaglia (The Way of the Bull)

Are you letting your life unfold? We tend to put a great deal of emphasis on planning. Today each of us is voicing our opinions about who we would like to have lead us politically – locally, statewide and nationally. We will not vote identically, but at the end of the day we will have a number of newly elected officials.

Regardless of who is elected, our lives will continue unfolding. The voyage will continue and we will move ahead through some very difficult waters. What I can tell you is that in these days of diminishing stockpiles of anticipated future gains, each of us will be taken care of.

The most important task of today is to vote. The most important task tomorrow is to respect the leaders who are chosen and continue to give the day your very best. If each of us does that, all will be well!
