Amazing Grace
Be watchful - the grace of God appears suddenly. It comes without warning to an open heart. ~Rumi
God is here now! God is in you! God expresses as you! God expresses through you!
The most amazing thing about God’s grace is that we believe it to be something different than what it is! Many times, we think we must beg, beseech or appease for God’s grace to embrace us, where in fact God’s grace is always readily available to us at no cost and with no obligations!
If there is the perception that we are separate from God, we will also perceive God’s grace as something outside of us instead of being with us, in us and accessible to us always! There is no need to believe that God’s grace only drops in from time to time based on our actions and our believe if we were ‘good enough’ to deserve God’s grace.
There is nothing around us or in us that is outside of God. God is everywhere present and there is no place where God is not! This also means that wherever we look we see God. The question is, do we recognize God in everything we see? When we recognize God and acknowledge God’s presence, we not only make God visible in our world, but we celebrate the presence of God in the here and now and allow for God to know Itself as us!
The moment we recognize God simply by being right where we are, we bring ourselves in harmony with the All that God is! Suddenly we are not apart from the world but an intricate, unique and important part in this world, where love, peace, harmony, joy and abundance can flow and where we are truly home, regardless of one’s physical residence! God is here and the amazing Grace of the Divine embraces, uplifts and revitalizes our beingness even now!
Affirmation:
How grateful I am to recognize God all around me. God loves me and I love God! God’s amazing grace flows in me, as me and through me! Effortlessly!
