God envelopes.  There is no time, space, situation or way of being that lacks God’s presence in some way.  We who rely so heavily on our physical senses as the only reliable evidence cannot conceive of God’s presence in the places where we do not see God as we expect to see God.  Unfortunately this limits our understanding of God and thus God in our minds.  Just because we cannot imagine what or how God would be present in our dark times or awkward moments or people who seems to be completely incapable of love does not mean God is not there.  Just because we feel separate from God does not mean it is true.  God is the unifying presence.  God is the assurance that anything cannot possibly erase its source.  The unification of love is present when a circumstance shows itself as love or reveals itself to be in need of love.  I remembering hearing in a song once that love isn’t love until you give it away.  I have come to see the greatest benefit of my daily meditation date with God comes when the unified presence of love comes through me in a situation where I cannot see or experience love.  The reason it is lacking love, the reason it feels separate from God, is because I am not allowing God to work through me.  I am stepping in and deciding in my mind that this person, situation, or way of being is not Godly in the way I imagine it to be. Who died and made me God?

My prayer for us is the courage to trust in the unification of love that resides in our hearts and can come out through us if we get out of our heads about how love is supposed to show up.

If God is the unifying love force of the universe, what mind trap has you thinking it is not possible for God to be in an experience of your life simply because it is not showing up the way you want today? Share in the comments.
