If I am trusting in God, I am either doing it or I am not. Faith in God is not easy.  It is simple, yes, as most spiritual concepts are, but the spiritual life is not an easy one.  I suppose if it were easy we would see the world in an easier space.  It is interesting to me that the very moment things don’t go the way I thought they would or the way that I had hoped they would my mind tells me something is wrong.  But what if nothing is wrong?  What if it is exactly as it is supposed to be?  What if God’s plan really is better than mine? Can I go out on a limb and trust that? Can I keep putting one foot in front of the other and believe that all is working out for the good?  I can do it one day at a time.  It is a hard chunk to swallow all at once, but I suppose that is why we are only given one day at a time to live.  Sure, we think as though we have a lifetime, but none of us know when our time will come to an end.  If I connect with my Creator as I begin this new day that has been given to me and ask for guidance on how to live each moment to the fullest, then I am not so preoccupied by my ideas of how things “should” be.  Instead I can be in reality with what is.  My prayer for you today is that you have the courage to ask God, who would you have me be today?  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
