Life is constantly enfolding. New moments, new ideas, new relationships, new breaths, new endings, etc. The only thing constant is change. If we approach things from a fixed perspective of “this is how things are supposed to be” then we close ourselves off to what can enfold and unfold in the mystery of this moment of life. If you watch and spend time with children you will notice their general curiosity about things. They also go through that “why” phase where they ask incessantly why things are the way they are. It is within all of us to have that questioning and that curiosity, it just seems to tone down over time as we accept things as they are. But acceptance does not mean we have to lose fascination with how things happen. If I am truly open to what God might have in store for me today, outside of what I have planned, and I trust that God will have my back no matter what happens, I can approach my day with a lightness of heart and spirit. Then the difficulties I come across are not things to mess me up but opportunities to experience something I hadn’t thought about. There is so much that we don’t know that we don’t know. God lives in the mystery and if I live in God then I want to be open to that mystery. My prayer for us today is that we be willing to take an inquisitive look at how we react to the situations and people of our lives and ask, how might this be a mysterious gift from God today? Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
