IT’S ONE OR THE OTHER...
One night I was sitting on the toilet and got a mental epiphany...as you do when you finally get some alone time
“Everything you do is an act of worship (to your purpose, to God, to your art)
Or
it’s an act of rejection.”
When you make the art, take the nap you need, eat food that helps you in flow...act of worship
When you actively learn and seek clarity on your vision and purpose...act of worship
When you do your mummy-ing when it’s mummy duty time.
When you make art when it’s make-art time.
When you stay up all night to get that inspired project done.
When you take the nap because your body needed it.
All...acts of worship
Or
When you get inspired and then say...nope! too hard. Not for me. I’m not good enough....act of rejection
When you choose shadow work, close enough but not quite in alignment with your soul work…act of rejection
When you speak toxic words to yourself & betray your own promises to self…act of rejection
When you stay stuck or sabotage, letting fear lead the way or allow Resistance to stop you...act of rejection
I still unravel this in my spiritual & creative practice….
It feels familiar and obvious and ‘duh, haven’t we been saying this for ages?’
while also feeling completely profound and like a lightning bolt.
You KNOW when it’s one or the other.
You already KNOW if your next act is worship or rejection
And I know, I won’t find clarity from just thinking it through.
Talking it out, sharing it, doing work I’m called to in the light of this revelation.... that’s how these kinds of aha moment will find & weave its way into my life.
So as with all art and finding clarity of direction...let’s start with intention:
I want my life to be an act of worship
Writing it down here. Sharing my heart with you. Making my life my art. My art my life. I hope it’s an act of worship. Always.
Worship as in:
Full commitment to focus and learning more
Soul immersion
Seeing the wholeness & fullness of it
Surrender
Faith & Trust in the connection
That “HELL YES! This is IT!”
Cultivating connection
Communication & Communion
Daring to take it seriously
What do you choose?
Worship or Rejection?
