God integrates.  Each moment we are presented with choices about what we are going to take in and digest into our system.  Our choices are based on what we are exposed to at the moment.  At least as far as we can tell.  We presume most of the time that we are making choices based on what we are picking up from our physical senses.  But scientists will tell us we are actually making our choices about what to assimilate based on our perception of our physical senses.  Our decisions come from the meaning we have made from the input of our physical senses.  It all happens so quickly we are not aware of it.  Our brains actually do so much of it for us that it seems as though we do not even need to be there and in many cases we are not.  It is part of the invitation of God to be present in our lives.  God calls on us to be mindful of what we are assimilating into our system.  God invites us to pause and examine if what we are getting ready to integrate into the whole of who we are is in alignment with the truth of who we are.  Doing so will allow us to not spend so much time fighting things off when they get into our system or putting it through the all of ourselves before we let go of it.  The question of assimilation is will this decision bring me closer to love today or further?

If God is ready to share as much as love as possible with us, what might you be assimilating into your system that is not leaving room for more love today?  Share in the comments.
