THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
You are as distant from the Lord, as you think you are; as near Him, as
you feel you are. The distance from Me to you is the same as the distance from
you to Me, is it not? You complain that I am far from you, though you are
approaching nearer and nearer. How can that be? I am as near you, as you are
near to Me! Nearness to the Lord is won by Devotion, which cannot be steady
until you get rid of the feelings of 'I' and 'Mine'. Look upon joy and grief as
teachers of hard-work and balance. Grief is a friendly reminder, a good
taskmaster, even a better teacher than joy. The Lord grants both protection and
punishment - for, how can He be the Lord, if He does not insist on strict
accounting and strict obedience?
