Sometimes I feel like the hardest road to travel is the one from my heart to my head or vice versa. For many years there were endless roadblocks around my heart. When you shut down access it makes it hard to get somewhere but not impossible. God always knows how to lead me back to my heart. I see now it starts with paying attention to my breath. It helps when I get quiet and in the end it is about remembering in my head to turn to my heart. In my years of recovery I have learned it is not about making my ego wrong or getting pissed off that I am stuck in my head. It is about recognizing that when I feel I have lost access to my own heart, I can rely on the One who never loses access. The One whose voice gently reminds me to slow down, take a breath, and remember I am not alone. The reminder rarely shows up the way I think it will and it is different every time. I do know it is distinct knowing that only God seems to possess. I hope the more dates we go on and the closer I get to God, I will acquire the same distinctness.
Be From Distinctness!
on July 26, 2017My prayer for us is the courage to rely on God to remember how to access our hearts in his own distinct way and be open to how she accomplishes it for us today.
