When life is lived simply there is a clarity that exists. There is a sense of peace and balance that envelopes one when they are clear on who they are and what their role is. God is always clear and unwavering in knowing who God is. When we are aligned with how God sees us we experience the freedom of being. There is no one to please, nothing to fix, and no place to be but the moment. Clarity is truth and it surpasses the physical experience because it is much more than that. Some people talk about it as knowing one’s purpose in the world. There are many ways to describe it but the space of being is one that is not easily shaken. For so much of my life I thought I had to prove my existence, explain my behavior, and give justifications. My mind was full of reasons and excuses that I thought for sure I needed to have ready because you were going to question me. And to question me made me uncomfortable because it put me in touch with the fact that I questioned me all the time. What I now understand is that God never asked me to explain myself. God knows exactly who I am and why I am here because it is part of His design. I am invited to take a look at things when I am off the mark. Usually the explanation is that I lost sight of my purpose, or forgot that the purpose was love, or that love would be the answer in that particular situation. Time with God brings that clarity because I am aligning myself with the truth of who I am from my Creator’s eyes. My prayer for us today is that we be open to getting in touch with that clarity (God) and experiencing the peace of everything else falling away. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
