The truth of love is simple. It exists. It has no bounds. It is beyond our full understanding. It moves and breathes in and through us at all times. It binds us to each other, to ourselves and it shows up in the simplest of fashions when we least expect it. Walking in a relationship with God means surrendering over and over to the magnificent power of love. It means stepping back from the confusion of the world and remembering where we come from, who we are at our core and what is most important. If we awaken to the power of love to transform our hearts our eyes will be opened to its simplistic presence over and over again in moments where we were previously unaware. So what does this mean to our every day lives that get swept away by the complicated calls and pushes to do and improve and find fault? To me it means over and over again with each breath asking God to open the eyes of my heart to the simplistic presence of love where it seems most absent. God I do not see love in this annoying person, show me how you simply enjoy them. God how can being in fear of my father entering my room at night show me the road to love now that I am on the other side? God, I seem to have gone off course from my core at this moment because I cannot see love, show me how to return.
My prayer for us is a willingness to reach for the hand and power of God so that it can be placed on our hearts and touch the core of who we are once again this day.
If in the first moment of your day in which you recognized your release of your core you reached for the hand of God, what would you ask for? Share in the comments.
