I had an image in my mind of being in a canoe, gliding gently down a stream. I did not need to paddle. The current carried me effortlessly at the perfect speed. As I was carried along, I saw that everything is in perfect order. I did not need to paddle and hurry along. In fact, if I tried to set the pace, I simply threw the timing off. What would occur naturally of its own would instead become complicated and difficult.
This image is a great reminder to allow myself to be carried in the gentle flow of Spirit. This is my practice for today.
I move into Holy Spirit’s gentle flow with the consistent practice of pausing for peace. Pausing for peace helps me remember that I will be carried if I give my consent. Today my practice is to pay attention to my willingness to be carried, instead of trying to decide what anything means on my own. With this practice, a beautiful, peaceful day of blessings will unfold. And I give thanks.
