The gentleness through which God operates defies our human expression.  The reality is that most of us approach ourselves with a harshness with which we would not speak to our enemies. Yet it is the resounding tone in our own heads. From our daily prayer and meditation dates, God shares this gentle expressiveness through invitation. God does not demand the way the voice in my head does, God invites. Whether it’s the gentle nudging of being open to an idea or the way a choice is presented to me when I thought I had none.  The invitations are as various as the possibilities of God’s imagination.  The creativity through which God conveys the power of choice is immense.  God is constantly reminding me through invitation that I always have a choice.  I may not like the choice or feel blocked by the options I appear to have, but I always have a choice. Thus the power of inviting God in by saying, “God, please help me to see this differently.”
