Ephesians: Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine,
Ain't that the truth? I've found that the more I surrender to God/Spirit within me the more abundantly I live. If I spend even ten minutes every day in meditation, I can tune in to the Divine, where I find unimaginable peace, love, and comfort.
Why then would anyone choose not to find those ten minutes a day? That's the question that reoccurs in my own life. What could be more important? There are times when I haven't had that time for one excuse or another, your choice; you slept in, the dogs needed attention, there's so much to do in a day and there wasn't time, I'll do it tomorrow... The list is infinite.
Just writing this, I feel more disciplined to stick with the practice of spending at least minutes in meditation/prayer and being enveloped with the Divine.
On this vernal equinox when day and night are of equal length, when we can balance an egg, may we find that balance within our own lives, and dance the dance of abundance.
