If we believe ourselves to be separate from everyone else because we are so different where does that leave us but alone? If we perceive others as separate from ourselves because of their distinguishing factors, where does that leave them but alone? Call me crazy but I can’t imagine that the millions of people in existence are here because they are meant to be alone. We are all part of the same universe. We are all part of the human experience. We are all part of the same Creator. In the same way that our body has different parts it also functions as a whole. I can look at the parts as being separate or as part of the whole. Perhaps it is a glass half versus glass empty proposition but maybe all God is asking us to do is look of ourselves and each other as part of the whole instead of apart from each other.
My prayer for us is the willingness to see through God’s lens of wholeness in which we each play a vital part of the whole of love’s existence today.
