God’s consistency of love defies reason. As someone who likes to understand things I find myself often confounded. Reason and understanding are not always available. People act in ways that I cannot comprehend. Situations occur that have no rational basis. If I only look at life through the perspective of my reasoning brain, I come up short. Here is where the heart comes into play. The energy of my heart where love echoes provides the sustenance to keep persevering at life. It is not reasonable to find a way to love someone who irritates me, but love has shown me freedom when I am willing to do it anyway. It makes no sense that bad things happen to good people, but my heart’s energy extends a cloak of trust in the fullness of the universal experience that sees beyond just right and wrong. On any given day there are a million reasons to give up and throw in the towel. Yet the gentle nudging of God’s voice in the chambers of our hearts gives us the energy to persevere in hope, faith and love.
My prayer for us is the courage to incorporate a more heart-centered perspective on life providing us with a God-given perseverance to do today to the fullest.
If God can imagine a reason to persevere in love despite all that has come of God’s creation, how could God assist you in creating the same in your life today with what you are facing? Share in the comments.
