Yesterday, I, Rev. AndreaGrace, was one of 135 million Americans who voted.
WE made a choice about whom we believe would be the best president for our country.
We made choices about issues in our states and whom we wanted to serve as local leaders.
Today, we have the opportunity to choose again…
Today, we have the opportunity to choose how we will show up in this country we call home.
Today, we can choose life.
We can choose hope.
We can choose trust.
We can choose bridge-building.
We can choose creating beauty.
We can choose nurturing safe havens of belonging.
We can choose to offer a listening heart.
We can choose curiosity.
We can choose peace.
We can choose joy.
We can choose resilience.
We can choose transformation.
We can choose prayer.
We can choose collaboration.
We can choose to protect ourselves from rhetoric and negativity.
We can choose to focus on “just for today” – these 24 hours.
We can choose to bask in the Holy One’s presence.
We can chooe to ground ourselves in the inspired words of Spirit-filled authors.
We can choose to hug a little more…
We can choose to offer more affirmations and encouragement.
We can choose to ask: "What is mine to do to make this OUR UNITED States of America."
Today, I do choose life.
Today, I do choose love.
What do you choose?
