When we project ideas or thoughts past the day we are living in we jump our minds into the unknown. Our mind seizes on the unknown with a fair amount of trepidation because by its very nature the uncertainty causes uneasiness. Now if we have one of those minds that foresees positive outcomes then we are in a place of peace. If however, like most survival minds, we are projecting possible needs to create safety and protection, our mind goes into a place of fear. This activates our cells to get ready for fight or flight. However, we have lost where we are in the moment and replaced it with some imaginary future. Our mind and body do not know the difference and so all the systems are activated and in the present moment we are experiencing the future as though it is happening now because we have placed ourselves in that future we have imagined. How powerful our minds are! But if I stop, pause, bring myself back to this moment and this day, place tomorrow in God’s hands, and breathe I am returned to peace. It is an invitation to trust in God always. When I come back to this day, God is present in the Fullness of All that is and waiting for me to gift him with my presence. My prayer for us today is that we be open to letting go of an imaginary future and choose to be in this moment with All that Is. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
