“You can connect with the Divine deliberately through prayers or a petition such as “I accept Divine Love” or by asking for a sign—like I did—and then seeing what shows up. Connecting with the Creator might involve religious services with other like-minded individuals. Few things in life feel more holy than singing joyful praise songs to God at the top of your lungs in the company of others. Especially when the musicians are skilled. But it sure doesn’t require this.
Not in the least. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
You may think the Divine is not as important as all the other things in your life. But nothing could be more important.
In her magnificent book Outrageous Openness: Letting the Divine Take the Lead, Tosha Silver writes, “What if God is the story?” Indeed. God, of which we are all a part, is the whole story. And when you put your relationship with this Divine part of yourself first, everything else falls into place.
When you put this relationship first, you get reassurance, guidance, and wisdom that is always there for you no matter what else is happening in your life.
Nothing can replace a “one-on-one relationship with the Source that created you. Absolutely nothing. Not fame, not money, not a lover. Nothing.
Your relationship with the Divine is the one and only thing you can absolutely count on. And it is the only thing that will continually bring you wonder. And mystery. And steadfast trust and joy. Everything else comes and goes.”
