God of All Understanding wants to be involved in all of our lives. God will not come in uninvited. God wants to walk the path of our experiences with us, be there as we grow, change, evolve, and return to our true nature. God wants to hep us by reminding us constantly of who we really are. God knows that it will be a bumpy ride but we can hang on to him whenever we need. God is by our side and immersed in being with us even when we don’t want to be with us. From God we learn how not to abandon ourselves. I know that being present in this life means being present for all of it. Not just the things that I expect, hope for, work towards, or wish for myself and others. God wants us to experience all of the fullness of love in the human experience so that we can connect through those experiences with our true essence which is beyond those experiences. For many years I thought my role was to spiritualize my way out of my humanness. Slowly as God showed up to be with me each day for our date, I realized that while I was trying so hard to do that, God was in the trenches of my humanity ready to stick it out. It was me that abandoned me or turned my back on me, not God. It was me that deemed my prayer and meditation time was not enough. It was me that wasn’t measuring up to some insane level of kindness that denied my essence of presence. God is not afraid of my darkness because God doesn’t buy into the illusion that there is any kind of darkness that can outshine the light that God placed deep within me. My prayer for us today is that we be willing to immerse ourselves in the very places of our human experience that we think God is not and be open to how God is not limited by our perception of places not to be. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
Be With Immersion!
on July 21, 2015Are you willing to take a chance that maybe God is willing to be immersed in the illusion of the darkness that you think is within you so that you can begin to see the light that God sees? Share in the comments.
