Counseling a bit last week, and had this thought again: Find the conversation Love is already having, as Love is always already having a conversation before you arrive!

So much of actually helping someone, is just about listening well, and joining in the places where you hear Love already talking with them. This is true with people and cities, i think. Finding the conversation already going on, and joining in…helping bring more Love there. Amplifying Love.

That’s so much what life is, and certainly counseling! Counseling is so much about being present and listening into where the real conversation is already occurring, and amplifying it! In counseling training they speak of “The Third”. One way to think of the third in a conversation, is where Love already is in the room or conversation, and entering there.

Being truly heard and seen, is healing. It’s not always solving the problems as much as a ministry of sitting with, being present in Love. That’s at least over half of healing. The ministry of sitting with, in Love is underrated. “Tools help, but Love goes deeper, and last longer, for Love teaches people how to use tools.” as one mentor put it. Just being with in Love, is a lot! Find that conversation Love is already always having! Enter and expand there!
