Should we choose the smoothest past forward? Wouldn’t it be nice if we had a map to our future? Then we would know exactly where to go and where to be? It just doesn’t exist. Life is like a river not a straight highway. It bends and curves and flows in different directions. The surface may appear smooth but underneath there’s something churning. We don’t always see what’s ahead. We can try to paddle against the current. Or we can go with the flow.

Blame keeps us rooted in past paradigms. But we have a responsibility to our own spiritual growth. How do we stay in the flow? How do we avoid getting derailed in our own mind? Sometimes the holiest moments in life are when this comes up in relation to what’s happening. We must go into that space where we trust that they enter spirit knows something that is beyond or limited experience.

Presence is practicing deep awareness of self from a spiritual point of view. To do this, we must first remember who we are. But this can cause us to align ourselves with outside circumstances. We must turn our attention to our inner life to remember who we are. Which is God essence. There can be nothing separate from the infinite.

Every being understands their identity as divine. Our work here is to be the expression of love in all things. We are here to give of ourselves. Spirit gives love back to itself for the purpose of creation. We can individualize this giving through our own sense of self. We do it as a way to live in infinite creation in our lives.

Do we live in a world where we are immobilized by too much information and distraction? To the degree that we forget who we are? How is it that we are motivating and creating our lives? What is the vision we are holding? We must take action and not succumb to inaction as a result of the information we are receiving. We must do something. But what is ours to do? We must choose clarity over confusion.

We utilize our imaginations to visualize where our life’s path may go. But visioning utilizes our intuition. We open ourselves up as channels to divinity when we utilize our intuition. Visioning often begins in stillness. And it is activated through a divine impulse. we create through our thoughts and beliefs. The feeling we feel affirms are commitment to those beliefs.

We impose an idea of God that seems impersonal. All things collectively create the manifest body of the divine. For many people, this diminishes a personal connection to God. We can move beyond the intellect into the embodiment of God. What could be more personal than personalizing the divine at in you? We are all the outflow of infinite love.
