Help me see this feeling through...

Hello. Today Butter sings a song that starts with… “Sometimes I feel small, like I don’t matter at all…and the roaches feel toweringly tall…”

Some moments feel this way. Finding significance when there’s cruelty around and bullying … can feel challenging if not completely impossible when my thoughts remain in the confines of the human world. 

Again and again… I remind myself that there is another reality… outside of the drama of humans… and this one thought can save me from profound feelings of despair. 

And quite honestly… remembering the Divine leads me to hope. 

The idea of a Creator… a loving, creative, amazing Creator… who exists within the world of humans and beyond the world of humans… changes the chess board of human meanness and power interactions. All the pieces get tipped over.

An all-loving Creator… who sees all… is quite helpful in so many ways. 

When things are super challenging in the world of humans, I can turn to God and remember God creates from a place of love and continues to create from a place of love. This means beauty is around me, within me and on its way. And this is more than enough.

When I remember that God knows all… I don’t have to keep proving my point. I have been able to find peace by saying to myself, “God knows.” And this is more than enough.

When I remember that God is most gracious, most kind and most merciful…I can acknowledge my errors, seek forgiveness, do better and know that even if no one else sees my changes, “God knows.” And this is more than enough.

When I remember that God loves me completely for me…I can stop begging people to like me. This imbalance is a tap dance I’ve done for as long as I can remember… “Love me! Love me!” This can manifest itself in many different ways of being overly nice. The balance I seek to find is in reminding myself that the Creator loves me… a lot… especially since I was made especially and uniquely for the Divine. Which is super cool. And this is more than enough.

Releasing a mindset that is locked in comparison and human power dynamics… and embracing an other-worldly-view that seeks to be in relationship with the Divine… means I am loved, seen, and also accountable in a way that is more significant that any human could replicate… this is comforting, inspiring and deeply energizing. I seek to balance a daily gratitude for unique gifts given to me and a daily sense of responsibility to share them. And this is more than enough.

I find this a hopeful heart-mind place to rediscover. A homecoming!

Feeling seen by the Divine can be heart-filling… and as the heart fills… it begins to flow over and the desire to share the joy of drinking from this eternal well becomes… joyful!

“You made me for You and You see me.” And this is more than enough.
