Energy is an interesting concept to wrap one’s head around. All things have energy. Energy fluctuates and has a flow. We are aware of obvious fluctuations in our energy. We call it having energy when it is up. We call it low energy when we are tired. We sense when we walk into a room of people what the energy is like. If the energy is low we don’t assume all are tired, we say the mood of the room is down. When we walk into a church and the energy is up we describe it as a spiritual place. Based on the context we give energy different characteristics. How often do we stop to pay attention to what kind of energy we are bringing to the mix? If we do, do we describe it as physical, emotional, mental, spiritual or other? Yet, we are a combination of all those energies which are mixing and fluctuating at different levels at any given time. God invites us to become familiar with our own energy and as a process of understanding God and ourselves, look with curiosity on what it tells us about ourselves. We so quickly label things as good or bad but perhaps it would be more compassionate to see it as giving or receiving. The fluctuation of life’s energy cannot always move in one direction. It is a dance and a flow starting with our breath.
My prayer for us is the curiosity to notice what energies are present for us at any given minute today.
