Scripture:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Samue<\/a>l<\/a> 3:1-10, 19-20
Mark 1:29-39<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reflexi\u00f3n:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My grandson sent me a picture from the San Diego Zoo of two young tiger cubs chasing each other and tussling with delight. One of my comments back to him and his parents was that I wish I had that kind of energy, but I\u2019m afraid that\u2019s long gone! Still, no observer could help but smile watching their freedom and joy in just being tiger cubs and doing what tiger cubs do. That is, after all, the will of God for them. They don\u2019t need to \u201cfind\u201d God\u2019s will to obey it. They just allow the depth of who God created them to be to bubble up to the surface and be exuberantly expressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus committed his life to allowing the depth of who God created him to be to bubble up and be expressed. To do so, he regularly went into the wilderness to pray, to be with God, and to be reminded of who and whose he was. Then he returned to the world to live his deepest identity, using his gifts to preach, heal, and serve as many people as he could.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I find that I\u2019m too often more like Samuel than like Jesus. I don\u2019t have an easy time hearing God\u2019s voice. Even when I hear it, I so readily doubt what I\u2019ve heard. \u201cHmmm, is someone calling me? Who could it be? What do they want? Are they sure they have the right person?\u201d I look around, puzzled, and then I go back to bed. That doesn\u2019t do much good, though, does it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having spent Advent concentrating on building a path straight to my heart for God, I\u2019ve learned that\u2019s only the beginning. Once I let God in, I have to let God teach me how to more clearly hear that divine voice. I have to take time in prayer to keep myself grounded in my deepest identity as God\u2019s beloved child. Then I need the courage to live that identity in the world, even when others don\u2019t understand or actively object. Like all of creation and Jesus himself, the will of God for me is to become ever more who I was created to be. God\u2019s will is written right into the cells of my being and lives in the depths of my heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So it\u2019s a constant back-and-forth process on that path \u2013 sitting still long enough to truly hear the ever-present voice of God calling my name, and then going back to the world to follow that voice. I need to decrease the amount of time I\u2019m asking, \u201cGod what should I do? What is your will?\u201d Instead, I need to listen to the deepest part of me and then step out in faith, trying always to freely and exuberantly use the gifts that God has given me to live out who I am. Maybe, just maybe, I\u2019ll even find that I have more energy when I cooperate with my core identity in God rather than fighting against it. I might even learn to be as fully \u201cme\u201d as those cubs! Care to join me?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
