Unwaveringly, no matter the situation or circumstance.

@HakunaMatata Beautiful.

But I did a seriously bad job asking. I wanted to ask for a (the?) method or path to use to get there. I will ask again. Hope you reply to that one, too. Hope I sort of get it right. Thanks.

@Nelladell there is no method to the madness 😁. Choose the path that feels right to you, and where you feel closer to Him.

I’ve read a saying ofFrancis of Assisithat might help answer the question:

“Spread Jesus’ message in any form - if necessary, use evenwords…”

IMHO words come cheap. It is through actions (kindness, love, honesty etc) that one reflects their love of God. Even when at times it might be difficult.
