Love has many errands.

Love has many errands

I am a list-maker.  Grocery lists, project lists, today to-do lists, this week lists, future lists, bucket lists.  I'll make a list for you if you like.  Sometimes I make a list just to clear out my head and never look at it again.

Today I am reading in Incandescence: 365 Readings with Women Mystics.

Love has many errands says Mechthild of Magedburg.  "Love has many errands. Happy, Love, I know what your job is and ever has been and ever will be. You bind God and the human soul together."

Love has many errands.
Love makes lists.
God has errands.  (love that!)


Today my errands-lists-- of Love:

Celebrating friendship with two old friends over dinner (one who happens to be visiting)
Being present in the NOW of today, breathing in God in this minute, exhaling worry and anxiety
Being grateful for sunshine and beautiful spring weather
Planning a birthday lunch with a new friend
Ferrying my daughter to and from her musical rehearsal and appreciating the minutes together
Walking across my campus with love in my eyes and heart for these students
Taking our crazy little dog for a walk

I am making lists today of Love.
What errands do you have for Love today?

Peace and grace to you today in your errands love.
Trusting that Amma God is binding our soul to the Soul of God!
