TRUE LIGHTS
Having recently moved to a new home, I’m still in the process of ‘exploring’ the house and I usually find many things that require maintenance or updating. However, that doesn’t mean everything in there is in need of a change, but sometimes it can lack that personal touch which transforms a house into a home.
Anyways, I noticed, especially in the winter, that many of the lights at the exterior of the house were not working. I thought I’d get these done a little later as some of them needed a ladder and changing.
Whilst I was delaying these, another tube light started giving up on me. I went down one evening into the kitchen and ‘flicked’ the switch on hoping to be showered with some light. To my disappointment, the light came on for a second and then went off, it then came on again and went off… This cycle of coming on and going off never ended until I had to give in and switch the light off again.
Reflection
Like the lights in our house, our hearts also require regular maintenance. Without the lights in our house we can end up walking into furniture and other items of our house; we could end up at the wrong destination.
In the same manner the light within our heart requires regular maintenance. Without it we could walk into all kinds of troubles, trials and tribulations. To the extent that we could be walking in the complete opposite direction of our intended destination.
The spiritual body is very delicate and it requires a lot of nurturing and attention. Any neglect from our behalf could leave our lives in darkness and destruction.
So how to maintain the purity of heart?
1- Removing the germs of negativity, backbiting, lying, fraud, leg pulling etc.
2- Staying with positive and happy people.
3- Remembering God several times a day.
4- Spending on others, helping others
5- Many other things to make others happy !!!
Clean heart and soul guarantees peace of mind and ensures huge blessings from God.
