  1. Nice to hear you have somebody to train with again.
  2. Is God love?

    Im teaching my daughter about the golden rule at the moment. Treat others as you want to be treated. I also added the idea pf the golden bubble. I got her to visualize a golden bubble of light protecting her from others behaviour that is more unsavoury. I explained that by being in this bubble of light and that nothing bad cam get through it , that it would be easier to remember the golden rule and exercise it. While I was explaining this ot became very clear how simple it is. To wrongs dont make a right and we are only in control of ourself not others. Love and forgiveness is a choice and one worth striving for. I think this is what it means to be Christian but its always a test of the mind to exercise the golden rule , especially when being treated badly , shouted out, raged at etc. I explained to her that this is where the true treasure is, when it is harder to generate love and kindness , it is more of a muscle worked and a skill gained. Believing God is love is useful i think in prayer and in living in the world exercising love even when times are hard.
