Today's
Meditation:
It's
nice to see someone refer to the God who lives in her
heart rather than the God who lives up in Heaven and looks
down on us and judges us constantly. A God that
lives in my heart knows me, and is knowable by me. A
God that lives in my heart can truly and lovingly guide
me, as long as I keep myself open to hearing the gentle
suggestions that God makes.
The
world itself is completely objective, and doesn't want bad
or good for us. It just keeps on keeping on,
maintaining the systems and structures that make it what
it is. God, on the other hand, wants what's best for
us. It's easy for us not to trust that, though,
because we don't see or touch or smell God. God just
is.
When
we trust God to lead us in ways that are healthy and good
for us, then we can trust that life will fall into
place. We can trust that what we do from a place of
love and integrity will be the right thing, even if we
don't see the immediate results that we'd like to
see. We can trust that life will provide for us and
we can live from a place of trust rather than a place of
fear or confusion or anxiety.
God
is here, right now. God is what you perceive God to
be, for God is within you, and you can trust
yourself. God is that part of us that is connected
to all other people and all other things. Wherever you are, God is there,
too, in your heart. When you trust in this truth,
trust in life becomes easy. As you trust more in
life, then you start to see more and more reasons to trust
as things work out for the best, for you and those you
love.
