Beyond all ideas, all thoughts, all words, all deeds, there is the Beloved. The indescribable source of all creation. It is that which moves, and that which holds. That which is incomprehensible, and that which is closer than my jugular vein.
It is that unity I sense in myself now. Within me, always, is the Beloved, holding me close in its compassion, its courage, its creativity. The unconditional love of the Divine One flows through every aspect of my being.
I choose to surrender to the Beloved within. In so doing, I know that I open myself to a love so grand it cannot be spoken of. As I surrender, I know my life is guided and sustained by this love. I know there is nothing I need to figure out about this love. All that is mine to do is simply to accept it in its fullness. As I accept this love, I allow myself to be a channel for this love to flow freely throughout the Earth, knowing that as I am sustained by this love, so too does this love sustain all who I share it with.
Feeling this love within me fills me with gratitude for the boundless generosity of the Beloved within.
I release my word into that aspect of the Beloved that joyfully creates all it is given, and I surrender.
And so it is.
