Living in awareness is like opening the door to the rest of my life. Awareness is defined as "having knowledge or discernment of something." How many go through life thinking they know what it is about only to miss the bigger picture? What is the bigger picture? Love. Period. We were created to love God, ourselves and others. "But now faith, hope, love abide in these three....but the greatest of these is love." The awareness comes like an AHA moment when we realize it's not about how much we love God, but about how much He loves us. This realization changed the way I think, the way I walk and the way I pray. For many of us life is all about how much we do, spend or accomplish. Life becomes about our plans, our work, our merits or our own achievements. It gratify's the ego...but is it really what we are here for? Did God say go win awards, make money and feed our ego? No... He said to have faith, be hope and the greatest thing we can accomplish in life is be LOVE. Do you know how to love today? Not are you in love..... but do you have the awareness to be love. It is the greatest of all things. There is no substitute.... not money, nor possessions, nor power can replace it.
