Life is the sacred gift of blessing embedded into each breath in this moment. The Great Spirit has designed us for an experience of love and truth. In the physical world it does not often appear that way because we have created obstacles that prevent us from tapping into the reality of who we are. These layers of misinformation formed in good conscience by our ego serve us until the pain of the lack of their truth does not. Then we find ourselves lost and uncomfortable in the pain that we thought we once found comfort in. This awakens us to the present and causes us to question what we thought we knew. The experience of this is spiritual in nature because the truth of who we are is calling us to claim it and in order to do that we must let go of the stories our ego helped us to create because we are ready to step into our truth. The truth of who God created us to be and is willing to walk the path with us in our rediscovery of that true self. Who we are at our core is not afraid to do this, our ego is because it is threatening the very life that it has created. I am grateful for the stories and the layers that my ego created that helped me survive. I am not sure I would be here otherwise. I have learned however that with God by my side I can gratefully let that go in exchange for an experience of who I am in the present, not me based on a past experience. It can be scary but I only have to do it a step at a time. Any moment when I find myself wanting to run back to what I think I know, God stands firm and strong with the vision of who I AM and reminds me that I cannot go back even if I wanted because I have already started to wake up. My prayer for us today is that we be willing to take God up on his offer to stand in the truth of our creation and let go of one old story or circumstance with thanks. Make it a great one!
