Life Is Good...So Is God

Once again, after a long absence of reading Jason Mraz’s blog, I’ve found myself wandering over to his blog and, as always, he inspires me and has some insight into what is going on in my life. Sometimes I wonder if God doesn’t use Jason Mraz as a way to get through to me since my ears are so well tuned to JM’s voice.

The first entry on JM’s blog is entitled #LifeIsGood and is in response to his new EP. I think most of us need to be reminded of this every once in a while…

“To put it simply, Life is Good no matter which way you look at it. You’re always giving or receiving love. It’s your attention and gratitude – actually acknowledging love - that allows you to “in joy” it.”

“Love is always there. Sometimes it just takes our attention being shifted back to it to truly feel it.”

All I have to say to that is…”Well said, brother! Well said!” Anyone feeling down, lonely, or a bit lost I dare you to read Jason’s bog Freshness Factor Five Thousand and not feel uplifted afterwards.

The same, I guess, can be said of the Bible but it’s not always as easy to “get your hands on”, or many people feel too intimidated by it, or they just refuse to look in that direction. I know I’m one of those people, sadly, I fit in there somewhere. Luckily, I not only hear what God is saying to me today but I can, also, feel the swift kick he just gave me. Guess it seems love is not the only thing we need to shift our attention back to so that we can truly feel it.
