It is hard to imagine that we are able to miss out on things that you would think we would be aware of. Often we miss out because our brains have already configured what it deems important to notice and what is not. It is a beautiful design of being human that we are able to process so much in our brain but if we were conscious of it all we would most likely go insane. We think our world is full of distractions now, imagine if you noticed every nuance of every sound or sight? I think my head would explode. The fact that my brain does this for me allows me to choose what I focus on. If I do not make choices the automatic pilot will set into motion and most likely I will be thinking the same things all day long like an endless loop. On our daily dates God has taught me the value of slowing down and choosing to focus on one thing and notice all the other things go through my mind. It is a powerful skill and it applies not just to my spiritual life but to my capability to be effective period. I have no idea what I will react to or have a lot of energy about unless I can realize where my mind is going from one moment to the next.
Be From Realization!
on August 31, 2017My prayer for us is the courage to be open to realizing where our minds go with our thoughts and asking God if it is where God wants us to go today.
