God is honorable.  The universe was created and is maintained by a series of laws stemming from love. It is the most powerful presence in all of existence. The expression love makes the world go ’round may sound trite or cliché’ but it is true.  Without the power and force of love we would not be standing upright. Our connection to this divine force is what allows us to be in alignment with the greatest experience of living. In the eastern tradition they teach about the chakras which are forces of energy that go from the base of our spine to above our heads.  It is an energetic measurement of the levels of energy we have within us that we exchange with others and the world. When we are upright, true to ourselves, there is a flow energetically, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.  Our uprightness allows us to be in alignment with a connection that comes through us and out of us. Honoring who we are on all levels is important.  We are here to be expressions of God in the story of our lives.  Our story is not meant to be something that causes us to hunch over in shame or despair. When we choose to embrace our story with our hearts we are able to stand upright.  Standing upright as a representation of the goodness of God is our highest calling.

My prayer for us is the courage to trust our ability to stand upright no matter our stories and circumstances because those are only the vehicles through which we can be the expressions of love that we truly are.

If God knows that you are a representation of love, how can God encourage you to see yourself as an upright demonstration of love when the circumstances and stories of your life make you want to hunch over protecting your heart today?  Share in the comments.
