Clarity and truth are two essential elements of Spirit. God’s way is that of clarity and truth. God has a singular vision = LOVE. The vision then perpetuate everything that is. The vision of love fulfilled. The vision of love expressed. The vision of love shared. The vision of love healing. The vision of love breaking down false barriers. The vision of love engendering compassion. The vision of love triumphant over all. This vision is part of who we are as well. Our Creator designed us to be the fulfillment of The Great Vision. Our destiny is love and that is why in the end it always wins. We can resist it. We can pretend it is not part of who we are and act in a contrary manner, but in the end we cannot help but be touched by it, recognize it, and on some level be with it. There have been dark times in my life when I felt nothing close to love and only knew the opposite. Times when I felt abandoned by God and saw no hope. Yet something within me would not let me give up. I was connected to this vision of God but I didn’t know it. It was the little light in my heart the kept burning if only as an ember. Bill W, founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, wrote “It is always darkest before the dawn.” Have you noticed that the dawn always comes? Night and day. Death and Resurrection. Breathing in and out. It is the flow of life. I can and have latched on to the current moment’s reality of darkness as though it was the only thing that existed, but I was never right. Eventually it changed. More importantly it showed me that my thinking is limited and I cannot rely solely on it to guide the vision of my life. These days when I find myself troubled, uncertain, lacking clarity or feeling lost, I hear the voice of God remind me Keep your eyes on Me Colleen. I may not know what love looks like in that situation but I can focus my vision on God (sometimes it is the face of Jesus, other times a bright light, and others a sacred chamber that I envision in my heart). Then all that is not God will eventually fall away and love is revealed. My prayer for us today that we have the willingness to let go of our limited version for the vision of God which will lead us to love. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
