We are beings of light and love because Our Creator is The Being of Light and Love.  We are filled with peace and generosity because Our Creator IS PEACE and GENEROSITY.  All the desires of our heart at the most primal level are to embody the qualities that most resembled that from which we were created.  Our human experience with all its bumps and crashes gets us a bit off course.  We become wedded to the idea that the physical world is the only one that exists or at least that it is the most important one.  That is because our ego needs something with which to identify itself.  It cannot wrap its head around the concept of Infinity or Timelessness.  When we choose to go along with our ego’s programming life is a chore and maybe we get lucky and are able to reach the accolades that are shown to us to matter most in life, but  most of us will fall short on some level.  Something will not work out the way it is “supposed” to in the physical realm because our soul is utilizing the situation for growth and an opportunity to learn more about love.  Our soul is not concerned with how it measures up to societal standards.  When I find myself face to face with a sense that I have “failed” or “messed up” in my job or in a friendship or on the road, my head wants to rip me a new one about how I am not measuring up.  Then within me when I get quiet enough is my spirit that says there is something I can learn here.  If nothing else, it is a reminder that the “failure” or the “mess up” isn’t the full story.  If I stop,look to God, and ask: Show me how to see this, then I have an opportunity to be present with a greater sense of who I truly am. My prayer for us today is that we seize our next mess-up as an invitation to stop our identification with only the physical world and ask for God’s perspective.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
