The Great Giver bestows upon us a love without boundaries. Within this experience of love from which we were created, we have the opportunity to embrace the fullness of life. God is the way God is because of who God is. God does not withhold love or keep us from the truth of who we are because of what we have done or not done. This is the essence of Grace. It is freely given because it is how God operates. It is one of the most profound lessons I have learned on my daily dates with God. God shows up as the fullness of love each morning. Sometimes it takes a gargantuan amount of effort to stay present on our dates. I want to go back to bed. I can’t seem to stay awake my mind is spinning or worrying about some future possibility. God has taught me to bring all that on our date and gently he shows me how to hand it over to him. She will gladly take what I bring and infuse it with a love I have never seen. The gift of acceptance is the grace which is of God and can only be received if I am open to it. This grace which He bestows upon us is not deserved it simply is the way she operates. It removes the scales from our eyes and empowers the connection to the eyes of the heart.
My prayer for us is the courage to embrace the gift of grace from God because it is who She is and how He operates not because of what we have done or not done today.
