It is clear to me that God knows who I am. It is less clear to me who I know myself to be. Our relationship has been a step by step look at and uncovering of the stories and agreements I have about myself to get down to the truth of who I am. God has this gentle way of complete acceptance that makes it safe for me to take a look at the crud or in my case ice casings and iron that I have placed on top of my heart. God’s patient nature has guided me to melt and unlock the stories of who I think I am or who I thought I was supposed to be and uncover the truth of myself that has been in my heart all along. Our relationship allows me the opportunity to see the innocent light burning deep within me and allows it to resound its boundless energy and emanate with clarity throughout my whole self. When we have our date time in the morning, I am given a chance to connect with this clarity and revisit God’s clear vision of me. As I go through my day, I engage in the dance of choosing this clarity or stepping back into old patterns. It is a moment decision and it is not about doing it perfectly. It is choosing to stay on the dance floor called life.
My prayer for us is the willingness to allow God in enough to show us the clarity through which God sees us and choose if we want the same clarity for ourselves today.
