Rules of the Heart

  1. Breathe in God’s Love.
  2. Stop, part your time to make space for God.
  3. Say out loud “I love you” to the names of friends & foes.
  4. Humbly ask for God’s help & the help of all around.
  5. Know nothing; listen deeply for God’s joy in all.
  6. Shake & shudder to let go of physical attachments, feel God’s spirit flow.
  7. Die well; accept each day to sleep in God’s peace
