Instant gratification is a bit of a curse.
.
OR maybe even a lot of a curse.
.
We want it all now, if not yesterday and that is grand except when waiting on the most important things.
.
Intimacy with the Divine is built in the silence.
.
A great blog post is built in the silence.
.
Great art of any kind is built in the silence.
.
With the person who is not too scared to sit doing nothing for a little while until the whoosh of inner knowing arrives.
.
These days, I can feel it.
.
And when I get that feeling, I need to sit in the silence.
.
Not try to rush it.
.
And not try to preempt it with the desperate thinking that I need, I need, I need something to write, something to say and I need it now.
.
It never really takes all that long but when you are action oriented like me, even a few more seconds can feel like an eternity.
And sometimes after the sitting in the silence, all I get is the one word
.
And I have to dare to begin.
.
Not knowing where it will go.
.
Not knowing if it will even be any good.
.
And still willing to put it out there for anyone to see and judge.
.
Or see, read and be encouraged.
.
I make many mistakes in my writing.
.
I do not think I am all that great at it.
.
But I have something to say and so I simply say it.
.
And even digging deeper into the Divine.
.
I am sure there are holier, more polished and more deep thinkers than me when it comes to discovering more of that most important relationship in my life.
.
And mostly, I want to defer to them.
.
Read their books.
.
Listen to their teachings.
.
Tell myself that that will be enough.
.
And there is a time for that, for sure.
.
But sometimes, I am just running away from the silence.
.
Except no one can do my pushups for me.
.
I can learn all about pushups and I might even need to.
.
But for me to get strong, I am going to have to DO pushups.
.
Same with you, my love.
.
Are you ready and willing to sit in the silence?
.
To stop running away from the thoughts in your own head?
.
To hear the intuitive nudge as the Divine seeks to get your attention.
.
To hear the message for the people you are here to serve.
.
To choose certainty that what you have to offer is good, even though you are afraid that you are making it all up and will be discovered as a fraud any moment now.
.
To lay yourself on the line day in, day out for your dream, your vision.
.
For a few moments, sit in silence.
.
Just sit.
.
Call for the Divine to meet you there.
.
And expect to be met.
.
Your vision is important enough to develop and bring to life.
.
The service you are here to deliver is important enough to learn to sit in the void and allow your true depth to come through.
.
Sit.
.
Be still.
.
Record what you see, feel, hear.
.
And dare to deliver to the world.
