SONG OF JOY

 

Let us sing a song of joy and perpetual

thanksgiving for this day, for this

opportunity to live, to thrive, to bask

in the pure love of divine grace, without

fear of sin or eternal recrimination,

without hapless dogma; just complete

acceptance of our essential essence.

 

Today, let us lay down our misconception

of all that is godly, replacing it instead

with a fuller, more prominent vision,

an interpretation of a lasting, eternal,

blessing, reverberating a spectrum of

transcendent emotional waves of love,

of peace, of harmony, of serenity,

of  joyous reclamation.

 

Know this divine pulse beats in every

cell and fiber of our being; providing a

singular rhythm of purpose, of glorious

intent, accompanying our noble effort

to regain and reestablish a lasting foothold

in the worthy evolution of our communal

existence.

TO BE OR NOT

 

Allowing whatever is to be, to be,

appears at first glance like sound advice,

where once created and set in motion

we let go of the string, freeing our efforts

to catch the prevailing currents, to drift

or to take flight, as is appropriate.

 

Yet, more often than not, we grasp

the string even tighter, so firm

our conviction that we must manage

every detail, so unsure we are that all

will work out in our favor, our offering

often collapses from our very own weight.

 

Today, let us begin practicing the art

of allowing, by selectively letting go

of one of the strings we now hold tight,

bunched up in our vice like grip –

easing our load as we trust in the

universe to do its magic, to grease

the skids, and make good happen.

Today, let us each survey our world, assessing

whether or not the playing field of life is

balanced or tilted – supporting growth and

ascension, or creating frustration and despair - 

justice for all or for the lucky few.

 

The answer I have received, demonstrated

once again in the note below, is that we are

called to spiritual activism, champions of all,

showing the courage to uphold justice, rather

than just escape to our chosen nirvana.

 

Granted, in our ego-driven world, this seems

like a fool's mission, yet, if we are not willing

to participate, why should God?

 

THE COURAGE TO UPHOLD

 

Perhaps at times we must engage our sense

of fairness, ensuring all concerned are treated

with equal portions of caring and respect,

a level playing field in an often tilted world.

 

Let us agree to proceed today as subtle

champions of equality and justice for all,

no one given a head start, or nonchalantly

left behind, knowing this true balance

is best for all concerned – allowing nature

and nurture to set the parameters rather

then class, ethnicity, or power.

 

And as keepers of this more uniform

existence, agree to set right what is

clearly wrong, raising our voices in

challenge when necessary, pushing

for reform even as others look the

other way, knowing real justice takes

courage to uphold.

New Thought hinges on the actual creative

power of our thoughts, emotions, and mental

renderings. Not realizing this aspect of our

power has resulted in the negative creations

we all face in our tumultuous modern world.

 

Tending to our thoughts, no matter how

seemingly inconsequential, is the direction

of the note below, understanding the very

nature of thought to materialize, we are

directed to prune and weed our thoughts,

so only the healthy sprouts, those that

inspire, remain for the harvest.

 

As I write this, I am thinking about my

own thoughts lately, more muddled than

empowering, more confused than hopeful,

and I am thankful for this reminder. 

 

LIFE IN INCUBATION

 

In a moment of sincere reflection,  often

we find ourselves adrift in a consciousness

of wakeful dreams, whose meanings

and messages often escape our grasp,

placeholders for our focused attention,

when we take hold of thoughts and

dreams alike, infusing our clear intent.

 

Today we realize every thought, vision,

dream, or fantasy is a potential reality

forming, life in incubation, an expression

of possibility - our role is to give meaning

and purpose to these drifting scenarios,

feeding each our preordained direction,

our will based desire, our greater intent.

 

Let us, today, fully grasp this creative power,

stoking it with positive concepts, affirmations,

visions of growth, becoming, and worthy

evolution - words and thoughts that inspire –

robust dreams of magnificent doings - oozing

with vitality, thriving with possibility,

glistening with joyous intent.

Often, it is the end result we envision

that holds us captive - what we believe

must be, has to be, in order for us to be

happy, contented, at peace; while all

along failing to realize life is a probability,

a possibility, a variation on an initial

thought; a tune, once hummed, repeated

measure for measure by those intent

to play the game, until a full orchestra

is needed to respond to its magical,

mystical, evolution.

 

On those days, when I sit perplexed by

the Universe’s failure to do my bidding,

I receive a note like the one below,

appealing to my spiritual instincts, and,

I guess, to the lessons I have learned

along the way – to release, let go, and

move on – so I might, by chance, even

in my desperation, kick the ground, 

only to find the diamonds hidden,

waiting for me, just below my feet.

 

A FRESH PERSPECTIVE

 

Let go and move on today, releasing

yourself from the goals, the expectations,

the desire to please and be pleased,

accepting what is without frustration,

anxiety, or trepidation - knowing even

in the best of times, often we must

forgo gratification for forward progress.

 

Little is to be gained from studying

the various pieces of our confusion,

our dilemma, our incapacitation –

rather it is best to regain our composure,

find our balance, and simply place one

foot in front of the other, until a fresh

perspective is in view.

 

When this is accomplished, a renewed

energy will take hold, excitement and

enthusiasm will resurface, and once

again purposeful action will be clear

and without question, enabling you

to make your mark, leaving a lasting

impression of value and worth.

This morning, I spiritually felt like a

drain clogged with the debris of living,

stopped up from the emotional roller

coaster of the past year, immobilized

in a sense by an existential fragment

that seems to be choking the very

enthusiasm out of me.

 

So this morning, I go to iTunes and

hit my morning meditation from

Caroline Myss’s Chakra Music CD,

which also features an evening

meditation, both specially designed

for clearing our spiritual pipes,

unencumbering our souls through

Chakra release and cleansing.

 

At the close of this meditation, I just

did what I often do in these times of

spiritual confusion; I surrender the

issue to God, asking for the strength

to clear the needed space I need to

journey on with my purpose.

 

After the meditation, I felt an urge

to get back to work, deciding to post

today, and from my overflowing

container of unpublished notes, I 

quickly uncovered this note below,

which says so perfectly what I desire

to share with all those who may also

benefit from making some spiritual

space by releasing today.

 

THE NEEDED SPACE

 

What are we carrying within that we need

to release today, to let go forever, to dissolve

into a vapor of non-intention, and by doing so,

provide us with the needed space to grow,

to thrive, to flourish?

 

What are we carrying within that holds

us in place, refusing to let us venture

on until we let go forever: perhaps,

a misstep; an unwanted experience;

or a notion of unworthiness – a slight –

others or ours; a moment in time

we wish to relive?

 

Let us today, in a quiet moment, free

our spirit, our breath, from this weight;

by pushing it to the edge of our consciousness,

and with all our might, freeing it and ourselves

forever – feeling the cool breeze of  new life

rush in and take its place –feeling the fresh

breath fill our souls.

The note below is for all those who

are facing a medical procedure today,

or in the near future, realizing that

availing ourselves to the best medical

science has to offer, is not something

to be avoided, but embraced.

 

As you proceed, be open and in touch

with the healing powers within you,

as well as those surrounding you,

through prayer and meditation, while

encouraging, if available, intercessory

support through prayer groups and

ongoing prayer assistance, as offered

by Silent Unity, where prayer requests

are accepted and held in a continuous

vigil of prayer for 30 days. (1-800-669-

7729; International :01 -816-969-2000).

 

HEALING, HEALTHY,  WHOLESOME

 

As we do what is healing, healthy, and

wholesome today, let us remember these

procedures and practices position us for

a more vibrant life, moving beyond what

needs to be done, so we can enjoy what

is yet to be done.

 

Let us not resist, but move on willingly

and completely, knowing today’s

inconvenience will bring peace of mind

and comfort, alleviating any fear or

concern going forward.

 

With all this in mind, proceed with

confidence and assurance that this

experience will be positive, productive,

and a conclusive one – with life quickly

moving on and resuming its full momentum.

I gravitated to the note below in my archives

this morning, primarily because I am any-

thing from clear as to my intentions lately.

I have been mentally submerged in a fog

of confusion, as my writing and creativity

grinds to a halt, as I sit in a sort of stupor, 

far from flourishing.

 

Often these affirmative notes, rather than

working as a statement of what we are,

are designed to work as affirmations, a

beacon of light along the, occasionally,

dimly lit path of existence, something

we may follow, or aspire to, as we work

to wrestle control from our often less

than cooperative minds.

 

Today, I envy the position of having a clear

mind and a firm intention, knowing full

well that I will eventually re-emerge again,

gasping for air, ready to swim or float to

solid ground, and carry on.  

 

ALL THAT IS NEEDED

 

With a clear mind and a firm intention,

nothing can stand in the way of our success

or impede our progress, no errant thought

or emotion can make us question our firm

resolve, or push us off course.

 

With our well intended goal in mind, let us

proceed undaunted, realizing we have within

us all that is truly needed to flourish, to reach

out  and take a firm grasp of our destiny.

 

With this in mind, we take note of the depth

of our courage, even as we must say goodbye

to cherished allies, clearing our own path

ahead, knowing all along it has been our

tenacity that has been the foundation of our

lasting achievement.

A major focus of my spiritual quest has been

to understand the scope and nature of God. 

The answer I have received in numerous 

prayer and meditation communications is 

succinctly offered in the note below I tran-

scribed this morning. This concept of our

personal consciousness being a facet of a

more universal, collective consciousness,

or better put, God consciousness, seems

logical and tenable to me, although it may

seem alien to others.

 

PLATFORM OF CONSCIOUSNESS

 

Our consciousness is growing, our awareness

is expanding, as we conceive and create,

opening new pathways, establishing more

pertinent connections, each wave of now

we experience is bolder, stronger, emitting

a clearer definition than previously provided.

 

This consciousness, we often mistakenly

consider unique, ours alone, is a shared

perspective, a divine transmission, allowing

us, enabling us, offering each of us a level

medium with which to conceive and create

our lives.

 

Like the air that sustains us, the food that

nourishes us, this platform of consciousness

is God's love in action, so intricate and detailed

its formulation we label it reality, often in our

bewilderment, failing to conceive of its origin

or its originator.

A SIMPLE ACT

 

Today, reflect on one simple idea,

        the singular law of the universe,

        the one rule of God

        and all that is divine –

 

What is done in love surpasses

          all achievements,

          all heights reached,

          all mountains moved,

one simple act of love and kindness

reverberates throughout the universe,                       

caressing the heart of  God.

 

Today, reflect and fully understand

        this one simple spiritual truth,

        realizing all that has been written,

        or said, is based on this wisdom –

        this divine guidance.
