As I trudge this daily road on my walk with God I am astounded over and over again by God’s generosity of being.  God teaches me how to share who I am because God shares who God is on all levels.  From the design of nature to the little happenstance that occur in a given day.  God is excitedly demonstrating love in all fashions.  This is God’s gift.  Because we are children of our Creator, it is our gift too.  When I learn to share from the wholeness of who I am, I share unconditionally.  I am not worried about doing it right or being too much or too little, and most importantly I am not dependent upon another’s reaction of me sharing.  It is being in the truth of who I am and giving is an extension of that. I grew up in a religious tradition that emphasizes the importance of the giving by way of  good works. I thus interpreted sharing as the doing of giving, not a way of being love.  And unknowingly, I did it as a way to seek validation from others. I have learned the distinction in this phase of my relationship with God that when I share from the truth of who I am, I am giving love by simply being the truth of who I am.
