God is the energy that seeps in and through everything. Love is the untouchable touchable force of the universe. When we act in cooperation with God we find ourselves drawn more and more into a realm in which love is the only thing that is real. It takes away our blinders of barriers. It steals our breath. It calls to us from deep within our souls to be the message of the creation from which we were made. One cannot help but be touched by love at some point in our lives. Hopefully more than once but love is so powerful a force that once is enough. That is why all gestures of love matter. That is why all moments of disconnection from love seem so painful. But remembering that we cannot be untouched by love once we have been created means the idea that we are disconnected is not the truth. Today I had an experience of feeling my heart close off to another human being whom I encountered on my path but it was not because of who she was, it was because my head was dominating my way of being. I was at work, I had a task to accomplish, and it was important that I appear to have it together. In my mind, it was only when that was done could I extend warmth, kindness and welcome into my class. I clearly needed God’s help to step out of that mind cycle and open my heart again. So at a break I stopped, breathed, touched my heart and asked God to come between me and what was closing off my heart. We have expectations of things when they are complete and well put together. What about the process? What about the relationships that happen along the way? Is life only meant to be recognized in the completion and the perfection? Love does not wait for any such moment. Love strikes right here, right now. Love touches us when we least expect it. This is what causes our heart to skip a beat, for a smile to rise from our lips, and our spirit to sing. My prayer for us today is that we allow ourselves to step away from the doing and spent time in being so that we live the surprise of love’s touch in a way that we have not yet imagined. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
