We usually try to avoid discomfort. From discomfort we experience growth. When things are status quo or going well we get to ride the wave. Sooner or later we will hit a bump in the road. Our first reaction is to think that there is something wrong. We should have seen the bump, prevented it, and that it is not supposed to be happening. But what if the bump was all part of the grand plan? What if by getting over the bump we grow in love, forgiveness, build up courage, and become vulnerable? Our spirit knows exactly what we need to grow and expand in love. Our spirit knows that if we connect to the Great Spirit we can ride the wave of the bump and not be destroyed by it. Our minds will try to find a way around the bump because it senses unfamiliarity and that spells danger. Again, when we connect to the Great Spirit we are reminded that no “danger” real or perceived can break us. My prayer for you today is that you be willing to be uncomfortable in one small area of your life and allow God to show you just how great your own spirit is. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
