Our creation event was full and complete. God designed us as is, no changes needed. Within us was placed the blueprint of love and from it would grow everything necessary to experience the fullness and joy of life. We our responsible for maintaining the gift of life we have been given. This, of course, is a choice. We can choose to let it go and see how far we get on automatic pilot. I tried this way. Yet within our very hearts exists a hope and spark to engage in life more fully. It is the spirit within us that nudges us in the direction of alignment with our creator. Sometimes we become aware of that nudging in the subtle forms that it shows up. In my case, it wasn’t until I had broken down due to self-destruction that I was willing to listen to that voice of hope. It wasn’t until I experienced the hopelessness that I was willing to fix what wasn’t working in my life. To fix required to let God in. To remedy my life situation I had to experience true humility. I had to let go of my ideas that I knew how it was all going to turn out. I was open enough to admit that perhaps I wasn’t as all-knowing as I thought I was. I thought what needed to be fixed was me. I was certain that I was messed up from the core. Actually the only thing that needed fixing was my thinking. I became open to seeing things as God sees things. In so doing I realized that the fixing meant acknowledging that I did not even know my true self. The true self that didn’t need fixing, just acknowledgment of the truth of who I am.
My prayer for us is the ability to acknowledge the ways in which our life has gotten off from the fixed path of joy and fulfillment that is who we are at our core today and every day we choose to embrace it.
If you knew that who you are is already a fixed experience of joy and love what thoughts would you be willing to have fixed to align with this today? Share in the comments.
