We are so full of life and love (even if we aren’t aware of it)!  That means that when we are in alignment with who we are it is only natural for us to give and share of ourselves.  I used to think that being of service gave me permission to be here.  Being of service to others was done out of a need for approval and for others to tell me I was okay.  It is a way of being that permeated my intentions and motivations.  I did see the benefits, but when it comes from a place of lack it exhausts instead of uplifts.  I have learned that I cannot give of what I do not have.  This does not mean that I sit around and wait to feel connected and loved before I am of service.  It means that to the best of my ability I give without expectation of anything in return including and “attagirl” acknowledgment.  My prayer for us today is that when we are of service to others we see it as an extension of the love that God is within each of us instead of justification for being.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
