Stop, just for a moment as you are reading this and take a deep breath.  Now place your hand on your heart and take two more slow deep breaths.  Can you feel it?  Can yousense the calm coming from your heart? I remember the first time I was drawn to do this simple little act of pause.  I stopped what I was doing and felt recalibrated to a connection with God, with a sense ofalrightness.  I can easily acknowledge that God is always simple and true as are the ways of God.  The beauty of that is I am continually given opportunities to experience that in many different ways if I am open to seeing God in a new way.  How it is that pausing and breathing and connecting with my heart allows me to feel grounded is a mystery to me, but it does.  I used to think and act as though my feet were my grounding.  They are what keep me connected to the earth.  But it is in my heart that my true connection to God and to the truth of who I am exists.  My breath is the portal and my hand is the promise that it always within my grasp.  My prayer for us today is that we remember when things get complicated that our grounding (God) is only a hand on the heart and a breath away.  Make it a great one !  Peace~Colleen
