Spirit, show me the Truth that lies between the gaps of knowing and unknowing. Teach me how to be mindful of the contradictions and stay true to You and myself.

When we are born, we begin to die. It’s true. That’s a hard truth for some people to wrap their hearts around. So, how does contradiction show up in your spiritual and life journey?

God knows the exact moment we were born and the exact moment we will die. It is already set. So, what do you do with the in-between time?

Live your life!

We each possess a deeper level of being . . . which loves paradox. It knows that summer is already growing like a seed in the depth of winter. It knows that the moment we are born, we begin to die. It knows that all of life shimmers, in shades of becoming — that shadow and light are always together, the visible mingled with the invisible.
