Loving the World into Absolute Beingness

The world’s population reached 8 billion people yesterday, with UN officials saying that the growth is due to the increase in human lifespan and the result of high levels of fertility in some countries. Reaching the 8-billion mark “is an occasion to celebrate diversity and advancements while considering humanity’s shared responsibility for the planet.”
Love is the answer to every question. Just think, if everyone on the planet did three acts of kindness a day, that would be billions of little gifts of graces going out every day to love the world into its absolute beingness! We are all needed to raise each other up!

Affirmative prayer: Infinite Presence, I believe in the goodness of others, recognizing their pure intentions, the love in their hearts, and their acts of compassion. I bless their lives with kindness and generosity. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.​
