Questions God Will Never Ask ~ Einstein

Greetings Dear Reader,

The question that triggered this area of thinking for me was this, “God will never ask you why you were not Einstein.  He may ask you why you were not Sheldon Cooper.” -  Young Sheldon.  You will never be asked to be someone else.

Again, this thinking comes from our lack of understanding of the nature of God.  Every single one of us is unique in all of existence in every time and every place.  There is and will only ever be one of us.  We have a destiny and a role to fill.

This does not mean that we will miss our destiny or fail to walk our path.  Remember that the Father already knows everything we will do.  He has plans for us that are not to harm us.  He is working in each of us to bring all things back to good.  The implications of our individuality are important on a cosmic scale. 

The difficulty is that we compare ourselves to all the wrong things.  We wish we were like someone we think of as better than ourselves.  We desire to be more like this or that person.  We compare ourselves to those we think successful.  We emulate our heroes or despair and quit.

What we fail to do is compare ourselves to our former selves.  We fail to remember that the self we must become need only be better today than yesterday.  We need to improve in the moment.  We fail to see that the past need only inform the future and not control it.  We fail to give ourselves the freedom to grow by becoming discouraged that we are not like someone else.

Every person has a life to live that can be for ill or good.  We have the freedom to choose from our perspective.  God already knows our choices from his.  He will counter-move to each of our moves to guide us toward him and his desire for us to see his love for us.  He will never force us.  He will never make us love him. 

Most important Dear Reader, he will never ask you why you were not more like Einstein or any other human.  He makes a way every moment for you to see his love and how much he loves everyone.  He will ask us in every one of those moments to be more like him in our love and kindness.  We must also remember that we should not expect each other to be more like someone else. 

I must accept everyone as he or she is.  I must love him or her with all that I can and look for the unique love and creativity of the Father in everyone.  There is no individual that does not have something unique to show me about my faith, following, and life.  I must be willing to love and learn from everyone.  It is in this discipline that the joy in our traveling together is found.  So, tell me Dear Reader, how are you going to be more yourself today than yesterday?  I long to know who you are and learn from it.

Wishing you joy in the journey,
