God has never swayed from the view or belief in any of creation’s inherent good. As the Creator, God has no reason to doubt that which she designed. When I find myself feeling unsteady in the belief that love is still present I reach for God’s hand to remind me of the truth. I am gently led to the space of my heart to listen to the whispers of creation that are limitlessly defying my unsteadiness. The solidity of love’s presence in my life is no more breakable than God being breakable. Sometimes the eyes and ears of my heart are drawn to someone else who can remind me of the solidity of love in their life. Other times I am given a symbol from my own experience and I find myself recalling the memory of a time in which I was relying on the very solidity that I feel falling apart beneath me. Each day on our date, God shows up and invites me to breath in the gentle and simple reminder of the solidity and certainty of love as the air flows in and out. The pause to take a few minutes at the beginning of the day and breathe brings me to the center of my existence where the solidity of love is and always will be present. I have a greater chance of remembering it as I go through my day if I make the time to connect with it first thing.
My prayer for us in times of uncertainty and doubt, may we have the courage to pause and breathe in the solidity of love that is present within us all times even on this day.
