God of Life and Love is all Light. When we are fully in the present presence of God there is only Life, Love & Light. Darkness is merely the absence of light. We live in a dual reality. Yin and Yang, Light and Dark, Up and Down, In and Out, Masculine and Feminine, etc. The world tends to look upon things from the dual reality of right versus wrong and promptly places most things in that category. We have a hard time with the acceptance of the middle ground. The truth is that duality means both are present in all things. In everything good there is a little bit of bad, in everything bad there is a little bit of good. This reality does not apply to God because God is not something that can be understood or grasped in a physical reality. But God did create the world in which we live as such. This makes me think therefore that there is some grander purpose to it all. Why would God create darkness and light? Each of those elements must have some role in our growth and return to LOVE. Slowly as I have walked this closer and closer path in the breath of God, I am more wiling to acknowledge and embrace my darkness as well as my light. I used to run from the dark like a confused child. I used to deny the darkness so that I could play along in my family and survive. As a woman who walks with God I am invited over and over again to step into my darkness and see it for what it truly is–a place that I have tried to bar God from because I decided I knew better than God what God could handle. The funny part is when I am willing to step into the darkness mindful that I bring with me the light of love in my heart, God is already there waiting with a big flashlight, a gentle hand, and a smile: So glad you are here Colleen, let me show you the light that is in here that you are not able to see. There is no need to run and hide lovely woman, I still got you. There is no amount of darkness within you that outshines the love that I have for you and placed in you. Let me help you remember. My prayer for us today is that we be open to trusting the light of God that is with us and within us is stronger than any darkness that we fear exists or have experienced in or outside of ourselves. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
