God is known to us in our hearts.  God is known to us in our minds.  God is known to us in our every cell. We are privileged to live in a time where so much is known.  We have scientists and scholars who can explain the mysteries of life. There is so much to learn and comprehend about our experience. We spend years in schooling to garner this knowledge.  We obtain pieces of paper that tell the world how much time we have spent with our head absorbing the known ideas of others.  We go to people of knowledge and seek their advice on things.  These are all good things, but they have their limits.  Especially when we make ourselves wrong for not knowing.  The purpose of knowledge is not to place ourselves above or below others. The purpose of knowledge is growth.  For me some of the most growing experiences I have ever had were those in which I didn’t know anything of what I was getting into.  If I am unfamiliar with something I am more present.  If there is an unknown variable my senses are heightened.  If this brings with it fear, then I am turning and reaching for the hand of God (my true known) to walk through the door with me.  We bank our lives on familiarity and take things for granted.  When we open ourselves up to the unfamiliar we can be fully present and in gratitude for the opportunity to grow that exists in that moment.  My prayer for us today is that we measure our day by how many unfamiliar moments we can experience and see our own growth in love.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
