God designed within us mechanisms that are pathways that connect us directly to our divine nature. Some call this our spirit, some our inner-knowing, some our soul. The name of it matters little only that we recognize that within each one of us is a connection to All That Is. None of us is deficient in this. It is easy to think when we are around people who are clearly spiritual or have religious titles that they somehow have something that we do not. I grew up in a specific religious tradition around many people who had religious titles. There is even a specific hierarchy that exists. The default thinking was often that the higher up the title the more spiritual the person was. That is only true if that person invests more time in their relationship with God. People so willingly would defer their thinking and perspective to that person because of their title. This is how major religious figures fall from grace. People place unrealistic expectations upon the labels. Then the day comes when they act human and flawed as we all do not being our best selves and others are shocked. Funny how the person on the bus next to them could make the same mistake and we would not be as shocked. I have done this myself and I realized that I didn’t want to take full responsibility for my relationship with God so I placed it on others who wore the title. This is unfair to them and to God. The only person I can truly rely upon to keep my soul in check is me and God. It is our relationship that I am concerned with, not someone else’s opinion about that relationship. I don’t care if you are a priest, a psychic, a rabbi, an Imam, or an indigenous priestess, no one is more invested and aware of my relationship with God than me. I am thankful to those who follow a spiritual path in title or not so that I can learn from them. At the end of the day I want to be able to sit face to face with God and be at peace in my soul. My prayer for us today is that we be willing to create a connection of our soul to its Creator and walk it. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
