Good morning, God--and thanks for this new day, and my new opportunities to make something special of the day. I'm hoping to make it a bright and beautiful day, and I appreciate the chances I have to do so. Given the fact that it's the last day of the school year, the day is already one that's set to be enjoyable!
I've been thinking a lot the last couple of days about spirit, and about the fact that I am a spirit spending time in a body on a planet. It's so easy for me to forget--I keep thinking that I'm limited to this form, to the flesh and blood that house my spirit while I'm here. The reality is, though, that in my main form (not my "other" form), I'm connected to all the other people and animals and plants and trees on this planet, through you. The connection is easily the most important aspect of my life, yet I still focus so much on my separateness, on the ways in which I'm different from others. That's just silly, isn't it?
So I'd like to ask you a simple favor--could you please help me to build my awareness of the connection that exists between me and all other things? Could you help me to focus on the unity that we share rather than the differences that divide us? My spirit cries out for connection, yet I live in a world--and specifically, a community--that focuses on division. It's a painful situation to be in, but one that I've learned to deal with over time. But since I am spirit, I want the spirit to thrive and to shine, not to be put down and subdued. And I want to be able to help others to allow their spirits to shine and to thrive.
With your help, I believe I can do so. Thanks!
