When we choose to go inside and connect to the truth of who we are we are confronted first by all the coverage we have built on top of the truth of our being. This often scares us away because we are bombarded by a pulsation of noise that makes us feel uncomfortable. If we have gotten used to things just happening to us we are unaware of the inner workings. Not until a part of breaks down do we notice how crucial it is. We sense the pulsation of our being as what we see on the outside of us. We do not recognize that is our own pulse which is navigating our reaction. It is why different people have different reactions. God invites us to get to know our internal pulsation. Taking God up on the invitation means pausing to question what comes up as discomfort and check to see if it is even real. We are so used to reacting we find ourselves reacting to ourselves instead of responding. The pulsation that resonates from the truth of who we are is present in the response of the heart. The heart invites us to find the rhythm of truth in our pulsation which is throughout our being. Learning to ride the rhythm of our heart’s beating allows us to move fluidly through any internal or external discomfort. It is not about avoiding discomfort or judging its presence as wrong. It is about seeing it for the temporary thing that it is. If we hitch a ride on the pulsation extending from the truth of our hearts we will have the courage to ride the wave through to the next beat. We are reminded of this in nature and as we navigate through the discomforts of our lives, big or small, we can build the evidence for the power of connecting to the pulsating music which guides our being to respond to whatever presents itself on the outside, even a virus.
