"There is not a spot where God is not” We tell this to our children and ourselves but do we practice this truth? For me it is true. I can look around me and know that everyone and everything is a part of that Infinite Intelligence that I call God. And, like everyone else I know, sometimes, I forget. Yes, I forget that the driver on the freeway who just cut me off is having her own bad day and if she was thinking about it she would not have cut me off. BECAUSE I do believe that we all ultimately want to do “good”, be kind, be generous and live in the blissful awareness that life is good. Sounds Pollyanna doesn’t it? And yet, doesn’t your day go better if you can meet the comments, cut-offs, insults, the “no” with a smile and a willingness to know that it is all God – all Good!? I’m not saying take everything and just accept it, but be willing to know that there is a greater idea back of every seeming mistake, accident, and wrong doing. If there really is not a spot where God is not, that means that every activity, every relationship, encounter, and conversation (friendly or not) is where Spirit resides. I challenge us: me, and you, to find Spirit hidden in those moments of fear, doubt and anger. I trust it is there to be seen, for there really is not a spot where God is not!
