God embraces.  The beauty of the essence of God is the rapture of love.  There is no place where God is not.  All the parts of ourselves, all the things we have done or ways we have behaved that we feel shame or fear about are not held that way for God.  God holds a presence of love for the darkest parts of ourselves because God knows that we are not yet in a God presence of mind.  God simply invites us to grab hold of God’s hand and walk with him and listen to the sound of love that is on the outskirts of what we are trying to hide from God.  With a wink, a smile, and a tender embrace God holds our hand and guides it to our hearts.  In this heart space God opens our eyes to the held presence of love that is ready to reach out to our places of shame and fear.

If God is not invested in the surety of our darkness and fear, how might you be open to learning how to hold a space of love and shine its light on the dark spaces with you that you fear even God dare not tread?  Share in the comments.
