Integrating All We Are

As we move through our evolving journey, we come into our being made new. The old has fallen away and we have been released. The new has come and is still unfolding before us.

This week, we focus on the movement of embrace. While this is often about welcoming what is emerging and coming forth anew, it crucially also includes embracing previous aspects of our true being that have been lost, scattered, or forgotten.

This is the integration that comes after differentiation, recovering and including the genuine elements of our being that are still vital and essential to who we truly are, but have become subsumed or displaced in some way.

The Creative Act of Repentance

How we hold the power of self-reflection in our own lives can be an act of service and love.

As we focus on the evolution and transformation of Christianity, the world, and ourselves, it’s easy to focus on what is emerging, and neglect (to some extent) the necessary ways we may need to release, turn from, let go, and even confess was keeps us attached to the past and limit our true freedom.

How have I acted in ways that miss the mark and need to turn?
How might I need to engage in repentance myself for repair and healing?
