The Great Spirit who breathes life and love into all that exists has bestowed all the gifts of love upon you and me. The light that exists within you that has always been there and will always be there, dances when we remember who we are. This dance is the dance of bravery. Bravery is when we step outside our fear and take contrary action. Love is the opposite of fear. To love is to be brave. It takes fortitude to keep moving when the fear of our mind wants to bog us down. It requires valor to own the light of love that burns within our heart and soul. God is our champion. God is our cheerleader. God is ready to take our hand and guide us on this path of bravery when we are ready. Being ready does not mean having it all together. Being ready means owning who we are in this moment because it is the truth of God, not because we have earned it. We cannot do anything to earn something that we already have. And because God is infinitely generous, we cannot do anything to undue the bravery that lies within us in our light and love. The beauty of this world that impacts my heart is when I see love prevail. Not because it is some romantic Hollywood notion of love, but because it is so brave to step into love. When I see others do it despite the circumstances seeming otherwise, it gives me courage to do the same. Bravery is contagious. It is why we cheer for the hero and the heroine. It is why we get up each morning and take a new breath. It is the Spirit of God (LOVE) within our hearts and souls that whispers the reminders that we are more brave than we think we are. When we pause in a moment of distress when we do not think we can be the love that we are and reach for God’s hand, we are the brave souls that we know ourselves to be. My prayer for us today is that we be open to remembering the bravery that exists within all of us to choose love in this moment. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
Be With Bravery!
