The Great Creator has instilled within us a place of sacredness that cannot be touch or harmed. This sacred part of ourselves is that which belongs to ourselves and to God and nothing outside of us can change that. We can think that it can, but thinking does not make it so. In the depth of our being, a place where a stillness of reality exists. In a quiet place of stillness within where God resides at all times, this sacred nature remains pure and everlasting. It is our greatest connection to our creator. It permeates our being even if we are out of touch with it. As God calls us to remember who we are we become re-acquainted with what resides in this place of stillness. In the Hebrew scriptures, God says, “Be Still and Know that I AM God.” It this untouched space we know nothing but God. As an incest survivor, I was certain for a long time that my innocence had been stolen. But nothing that happened to me externally has changed my true essence. My innocence has always been intact because God placed it there. It is the still space within me that knows who I truly am. It is the place that never forgets that I was created with and for love. That is the innocence–the recognition of one’s true purpose and being. Everything else is just a story. Connecting with that came about when I realized that any notion of my innocence being taken or destroyed comes from the idea that something outside of me could undo God. When nothing has been stolen or tainted there is no one to blame. When there is no one to blame we are not a victims of anything. When we are not victims of circumstance then we are free to be. My prayer for us today is that in whatever area of our lives where we feel like a piece of ourselves or our innocence was stolen, we pause and ask God if that is true or not. Make it a great one!
