God stands with us and within us as the greatest measure of loving presences in existence.  God does not stand separate from creation.  How could God separate from that which is an extension of God? We are not separate from God but believe that we are.  This belief is what drives us to take on the need to control our lives, think we are responsible for more than we are, and rebel against authority because in our eyes we have been abandoned.  It is an illusion of our ego that we are separate from God or could ever be. EGO=Edging God Out.  So how do we go about keeping this illusion from running our lives?  We start by recognizing it.  We start by acknowledging it as something we adopted to help us get through something at some point in our lives.  We start by admitting that it no longer creates the sense of peace and safety that it may once has. When we grow up, we grow out of ways of thinking and being that no longer serve us if we have the courage to embrace change.  It is simple but not easy.  I find the willingness to let go of one old idea of how I am separate from God is enough to get me started today.

My prayer for us today is the courage and willingness to notice where we think we are separate from God in our lives and how that area of our life is working today.

If we are not separate from God, what could God do that would help us to start remember our connection today?  Share in the comments.
