InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration
April 7, 2023
The focus for today's inspiration is:
I invite the universe to use me
as a tool of revolutionary benefit to the world.
Meditation is the invitation we give the universe to use us, to make us a tool of revolutionary benefit to the world as it exists. To quote Lee Lozowick, "You just need to leave a crack for God."
Meditation can be the crack, the doorway, and eventually the canyon we open in our heart and our attention for the divine so that we can be joined to the process which is all around us that we call life.
The result of deep meditation is not a "result" at all, but the revealing of a condition that existed prior to our adoption of the idea that something special was needed to fix us, repair us, or restore us to happiness.
