To The Best That I Am Able

To the best that I am able:

from this point on it’s a holy directive — I am surrendered to God’s will, wherever that might lead me, and to the best that I might follow. It’s a contemplative path from here, one of deep listening and small service for the sake of others. I am dedicated to being kind, offering love, and continuous forgiveness.

to the best that I am able.

aside from these words, no one might notice that my path has altered in direction. I’m more quiet now, better to hear the voice of love that whispers just beneath my own demands. I hope that only my smile will convey my true message, that I teach by a life made gentle through my practice.

from this point on.

that’s all I want to do.

to the best that I am able.
