Be not content with littleness

We don’t strive for too much. We strive for too little.Everything we search for, our desire to get ahead, to reduce pain, to make life easier - all of those are setting the bar too low.There is nothing in the world that can bring us real peace.Consider these insightful lines from A Course in Miracles:“Be not content with littleness. Everything in this world is little because it is made out of littleness, in the strange belief that littleness can content you. When you strive for anything in the world in the belief that it will bring you peace, you are belittling yourself and blinding yourself to glory.”That’s why everything we strive for in the world leads to disappointment.The Course goes on to counsel us: “Littleness and glory are the choices open to your striving and your vigilance. You will always choose one at the expense of the other.”Let’s be vigilant for choosing glory and saying “no thank you” to littleness.Support the show
