dailydatewithgod

My daily prayer and meditation dates have taught me the value of turning things over in my life over which I have no control.  I communicate with God throughout my day but if there is something or someone niggling at me that I am holding on to it shows up in my inability to be present on our date.  I realize when it reaches that point I have exhausted all my options.  I cannot, no matter how much I read or write or talk or process see the goodness of the situation or person.  God offers throughout the process to take it off my hands but when I see how I am struggling to deal with it as hindering on our special time together, I am defeated and willing to let go. God does not see it as defeat.  God sees it as an opening to understanding the goodness of all.  God recognizes the ways and means I have attempted thus far but reminds me it need not be a struggle.  If I am wiling to let go of how it might happen, I can be open to goodness unseen.  It rarely unfolds the same each time and I suppose that is all part of the mysterious process of love as well.
