The fascinating thing about our bodies is the instruction included in the design. How else would a liver cell know how to function with the liver cell in the organ of the liver? The joints of our arms communicate along the nerve cells with our brain and bend when needed. They all received the instruction manual, but what about us? I have mentioned before that it seemed for a long time that everyone else got the book of instructions on how to live life and either they ran out of books when it came to me or I was absent that day. I did have instruction at school and church. My parents instructed me on many things. After a time, however, those instructions only got me so far. They allowed me to function. At some point, my soul began to cry out for instructions to come alive and be whole. The instructions I was searching for came very subtly with each daily date with God. I learned to show up, be willing to listen with my whole being, be authentic about where I am in the moment, and was given instruction on how to be. No matter what presented itself in my life I brought it to our date. . Without realizing it, I was given the instructions for a path of wholeness of heart and peace of mind.
My prayer for us is the willingness to notice what instructions the path we are on is giving us on how to be today.
