Turning Upside Down

     To get one's spiritual life right, one often has to live "upside down."
     To be great, one has to serve.
     To be holy, one has to confront sin rather than block it out.
     To gain your life, you have to lose it.
     To accomplish what the heart most desires, one has to not focus on WHAT one is accomplishing, but rather, HOW one is living.
     I have to take time in silence every day to "get back upside down," to remember what I had known before but had invariably lost sight of in just several hours.
     How I love His gentle promptings and powerful act of love in my heart.  When that comes, I know that He has righted my position by getting me back to being upside down.
