God is ease. The relationship of our hearts that we are called to live to the best of our abilities each day is the facile one. When we remember who we are and are not fighting reality there is an ease and a flow allowing us to be at peace with ourselves and the world. Peace of mind is a sign that we are in alignment with our truest selves. It is not about us being what other people expect. It is not about being perfect or a model of perfection. The joy that comes from this facile way of being outweighs any of the world’s acknowledgment of achievement and success. My experience of receiving the world’s acknowledgment all the while not being at peace with myself taught me the illusionary nature of the world. The facileness I experience during my daily meditation dates with God are a hint of what I can expect throughout the day when I remember to come back to my own heart. If I breathe into the space of love in my heart during whatever outside circumstance there is a facile entrance into being okay no matter what and that is priceless.
My prayer for us is the courage to abandon in some small way the complicated rules of the world for the facile nature of our hearts and be at peace with ourselves today.
If God makes it as easy as a new breath to return to the space of our hearts, what complicated element of your life might you want to transform into a facile way of being so you may experience peace around it today? Share in the comments.
