God use me. It is a simple prayer conveying my trust in God’s knowing and my willingness to be the messenger of love. I walk through my life thinking I know what needs to be done or how to show up or make it up as I go along. Setting the intention to be in the world what God has designed me to be is much more powerful. God using me to speak, look, taste, feel, hear and connect allows me to feel a sense of accomplishment that far surpasses any checklist I have. As part of our date time I will let God know what I have planned for the day and turn it over and ask to be used. I am less concerned when I get stuck in a line somewhere or have to take a different route, because I trust it is what God had in mind. I do not do this perfectly and many days I forget. When I remember to ask God to use me there is a sense of fulfillment and levity. I am not so wedded to my thinking about how I or others should do things. It creates a more open and accepting environment where love can flourish for me and those around me.
My prayer for us is the curiosity to see what it would be like by offering ourselves to be used today by God.
