All of life is an invitation. Each breath is an invitation to keep going, to wake up, and to connect with spirit-to inspire. We sometimes get lost in the day-to-day to-dos that we forget we have a choice in the matter. It is however, more about who we are being than what we are doing. The world measures us by our “to-dos” but Spirit measures us by our “bes”. If our to-dos come from our bes then we find ourselves living in harmony with our spirit through our actions. If our to-dos are only in alignment with the world’s expectations and our ego’s sense of self then we lose connection with our spirit. Sometimes I notice this when I realize that I am not breathing and am tense. My breath becomes my indication of connection with spirit–literally and figuratively. God invites us over and over when the strain of the demand of the ego’s to-dos gets to be too much, to come to him and be restored to our being. But we don’t have to wait for it to get too bad, we can choose to be restored at any moment, with each breath. My prayer for us today is that we stop in the middle of our to-dos and check-in to see if our spirit is present as well. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
