When we designed out of love from the very beginning.  Even before we took shape, when we were simply an idea in the mind of God, we were LOVE.  In fact, our very creation was God outpouring love onto the world.  Then as we step into the world and experience and encounter non-loving experiences and an ego that needs a physical identity, we take on the identity and the story presented in the circumstance. This all happens on an unconscious level because as children of love and light we simply want to remedy what is the lack of light and love in our world.  We are giving and generous but lack tools so we take it on thinking that will make it better.  However, even at that young age we forget that if we take it on we are not meant to keep it.  The best thing we can do is take it, bring it to God and ask what do you want me to do with this?  Over time we carry these stories and ideas and believe them to be who we are and we forget all together that which we truly are.  Our task then as conscious adults is to let go little by little of these stories that are layered on top of the truth of who we are.  God invites us gently, sometimes through the most harrowing of experiences where our stories don’t work anymore, to let go.  Let go of the untruth and remember the truth of who we are.  In God’s eyes we are never anything less that what was created, but God knows that our forgetfulness can be powerful.  But nothing is more powerful than God.  My prayer for us today is that we ask God if there is anything standing in the way of forgetting who we truly are and the courage and the tools to let it go.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
