There is a strength of presence within us that allows us to embrace life and all its hurriedness with a level of serenity. It is the calming nature of love’s flow. It moves in and through us with a consistency that outweighs the rough waters we find ourselves in on a day-to-day basis. God assures us the experience of love is possible if we remember to return to the source of its flow. When we tap into this reality we are able to embrace a calming nature within ourselves. As long as we believe our circumstances dictate our reality we will be tossed about on the waves of life. We are connected to the calming and consistent flow of love but it may mean disengaging from the rapids. It is not about pretending all of life is good and flowing, it is about taking a step back when we are in the rough seas and remember it is not the only kind of water to ride. It will last for a time but it does not change the nature of the flow of life in and out of our lives.
My prayer for us is the courage to return to the calming nature of love as the kind of water to consistently flow in and out of our lives today.
