Perfection

There is nothing to prepare for, nothing we must do to be perfect the way we are. We are perfect in our own way, and there has never been a one like any of us in all creation. If we see ourselves as less it is simply because we have allowed our vision to be clouded by fear and doubt. The fact that we are a work in progress merely makes us incomplete but not imperfect. Eternity is endless and creation ongoing, therefore creation is likewise endless. We are destined to experience the endlessness of creation and grow endlessly. As children of the Source and Substance of creation, we are co-creators, and the concept that we will reach some state of completion ignores the promise found in our heritage.

As children of divinity we need do nothing to become holy. However, there is much we can do to express holiness in our daily affairs. The business before us need not be somber, dramatic, or world shaking to be worth our investing our divinity. Everything, every single thing we do is an opportunity to express our holiness. As co-creators the business at hand is the perfect opportunity for us to express our divine nature. There is no experience we can encounter that is not worthy of our complete involvement. We are either expressing our perfection or we are not; we are growing or we are not. If we are seeking an opportunity, if we are preparing, we are not expressing our perfection.

When we give less than all of our attention to the task before us we are depreciating both its importance, and our opinion of ourselves. We may choose to excuse our inattentiveness by believing we are accomplishing many things at the same time. However, multitasking robs us of our focus, our devotion to our opportunity, our chance to be completely creative in the moment, and in the end to fully express our divinity. There is no hurry; no need to take short cuts, no need to multitask, for creation is endless, and opportunity will surely wait for us.

Our mission is not to become complete but to express our perfection. That being said, is it not more helpful to express ourselves, as co-creators, fully in what we find before us this moment? The universe is a marvelous mechanism, and we may find that as we express ourselves fully in smaller things we will encounter those that are larger. However, we will never encounter that which is too unimportant or too difficult for us to experience.

This day will require courage, patience, persistence, kindness and gentleness from each of us. We certainly have a sufficient quantity of these qualities to meet our opportunities, and all that is required of us is to do so.
