God embodies the wisdom of love. In our creation we are given this same embodiment. We are an extension of the understanding of love in its fullness. We are called to step into this knowledge through our human experience. These experiences can distract us if we get caught up in the form instead of the process. If we focus solely on the end result we can lose the lesson of growth in love. God is the Eternal Teacher. We are the eternal students. Every moment of our lives is a chance to choose to grow in love or not. We are free to choose. Sometimes growth can be painful because we are fixated on the circumstances and the feelings that we are experiencing. Our mind tells us that we must rely only on the physical perception of what is happening. Our soul and spirit however, see everything the same. It is either growing closer to God or further away. It is not about figuring God out. It is about expecting that God is already here and we get to find the love that dwells within us.
My prayer for us is a willingness to ask ourselves in the moment we are in if we want to grow in love from whatever we are experiencing or not.
How do you imagine God responding to your decision to grow in love through one of your experiences today? Share in the comments.
