Mindfulness ~Awareness of the Moment
Living in the Moment

God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”
Our cousin’s daughter shared an insight she had while watching her father and her young son eating ice cream cones together. Her father was battling dementia, each day a bit less cognizant of what was happening around him. Her son was growing more aware of his surroundings and his place in the world with each passing day. Now they have passed each other — her father sliding downward and her son growing upward. But for a moment they met around those two ice cream cones; for that short time, they were both in the same moment. Our moments are just that, moments. They don’t last; they disappear and we move on. We live in the moment, and those moments keep changing. God is with us in the moment, even in our difficult moments. Our troubles are far outweighed by the eternal Miracle at hand in Grace for "the Moment". God of our past and God of our future is right here with us and the "Now" — in the moment.

When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you have established; what are human beings that you are mindful of them . . . . Yet you have made them a little lower than God, and crowned them with glory and honor.
A few days ago while I was driving, I saw the most beautiful sunset. I had just read Psalm 8 that morning, so it was fresh in my mind and I pulled over to watch. The sun was a vibrant orange as it sank over the horizon, painting the clouds with gorgeous shades of gold, red, and purple. I spent some time praising God for this beauty, and I was reminded of the pictures recently taken by the Hubble space telescope that orbits our planet. I marveled at the gigantic swirling clouds of colorful galaxies that are simply the work of God’s fingers. Sometimes I wonder as the psalmist did, “What are human beings that you are mindful of them?” Looking at the vastness of our universe can make me feel quite small and insignificant. But God reassures us that we are “crowned with glory and honor.” Throughout God’s word we are assured that God loves us and we are significant. What an honor!
- Psalm 8:3-5 (NRSV)

On awakening let us think about the twenty-four hours ahead. We consider our plans for the day. Before we begin, we ask God to direct our thinking, especially asking that it be divorced from self-pity, dishonest or self-seeking motives. Under these conditions we can employ our mental faculties with assurance, for after all God gave us brains to use. Our thought- life will be placed on a much higher plane when our thinking is cleared of wrong motives. In thinking about our day we may face indecision. We may not be able to determine which course to take. Here we ask God for inspiration, an intuitive thought or a decision. We relax and take it easy. We don't struggle. We are often surprised how the right answers come after we have tried this for a while. What used to be the hunch or the occasional inspiration gradually becomes a working part of the mind. Being still inexperienced and having just made conscious contact with God, it is not probable that we are going to be inspired at all times. We might pay for this presumption in all sorts of absurd actions and ideas. Nevertheless, we find that our thinking will, as time passes, be more and more on the plane of inspiration. We come to rely upon it. We usually conclude the period of meditation with a prayer that we be shown all through the day what our next step is to be, that we be given whatever we need to take care of such problems. We ask especially for freedom from self-will, and are careful to make no request for ourselves only. We may ask for ourselves, however, if others will be helped. We are careful never to pray for our own selfish ends. Many of us have wasted a lot of time doing that and it doesn't work. You can easily see why. If circumstances warrant, we ask our wives or friends to join us in morning meditation. If we belong to a religious denomination which requires a definite morning devotion, we attend to that also. If not members of religious bodies, we sometimes select and memorize a few set prayers which emphasize the principles we have been discussing. There are many helpful books also. Suggestions about these may be obtained from one's priest, minister, or rabbi. Be quick to see where religious people are right. Make use of what they offer. As we go through the day we pause, when agitated or doubtful, and ask for the right thought or action. We constantly remind ourselves we are no longer running the show, humbly saying to ourselves many times each day "Thy will be done." We are then in much less danger of excitement, fear, anger, worry, self-pity, or foolish decisions. We become much more efficient. We do not tire so easily, for we are not burning up energy foolishly as we did when we were trying to arrange life to suit ourselves. It works - it really does.Saturday, September 21, 2013
