The heart that flows with love gives of its waters freely that it may refresh and sustain
those that are willing to drink while on their journey in the desert of uncertainty.
As the children of this planet, we are here to bring peace and joy to those that recognize peace and joy. And though the waters flow freely, those without sight,
wander this globe in search for it's waters .and yet thirst is their constant companion.
To be an instrument of peace, is to be willing to be held in the hands of God and to
sooth His children that cry out in fear.
At death we harvest what we have sown while living. The joys that we have imparted,
the love that we have shared and the compassion that we have given. What we give
to others and the good that we have received from our companions is what we take
with us on our journey into the unknown. So, while on this earth gather unto
yourselves the music that can only be heard by your indwelling Spirit.
Our eyes suffer to see what is invisible and yet we shake in fear at the thought of
beholding the Light that escorts us to our new homeland.
The depths of our own Love is unknown to us until the hour of separation from it's
home. Our bodies hold within it the Love that brings us joy and peace and yet most
fail to allow this Love it's freedom while walking through time.
Our journey of the flesh is not the path of right and wrong, it is the journey of finding
the Love that resides within. The journey of the eyes that watch and participate in this
world is only the outward signs that will always direct you back to your heart, the true
essence of what you are.
The love that we feel for those close to us should not be used to bind our loved ones to
this earthly abode or bind them unto ourselves, but should be used to celebrate the
opportunity in knowing and being a part of their lives. To celebrate their new journey
into the land of true enlightenment. Do not try to hold back those that are being called,
for their time on this earth is finished and their new life is awaiting.
While here you may plant your gardens with toil in hopes of finding your dreams
fulfilled, only to have the winds of death remove what you have built. It is not with
hands that you build your life and your dreams, it is with your heart. All your works and
love and acceptance than to live a life of gold and silver.
As flesh we give gifts of material worth, our Love gives only from itself and in it's giving
brings it's bounty more measure than gifts of worldly desires. To give of your time and
your compassion has no comparison. Love fulfills itself by giving of Itself.
We are guardians over our gatherings fearing that tomorrow they will be of use. And
yet tomorrow we search for more. Our houses and warehouses are filled with the
past yearnings of the soul. And while we guard with severity for fear of robbers, at the
end of our days our beloved possessions will be scattered among our inheritors or
tossed as debris. While we have toiled for these possessions and had blind eyes
for family and friends, our gold and silver is left behind as we travel the spheres of
eternity. Do we have possessions OR do our possessions have us?
The banks are filled with our fears of lack. We build that we may feel secure and yet
as we save we continue to search for more and our more is never enough, for security
is never found in the illusions of grander.
Our needs are not that of what we accumulate; our needs are of the Spirit, to be rich
within our being. It is the Spirit that whispers to our hearts for attention. It asks for us
to release our fears and to accept and to share from it's bounty.
As we travel in search of treasure, we need not move from our place but only to be
silent and to think upon the true treasures of the heart. To think upon the gifts that we
have been given and to accept those gifts with gratitude and thanksgiving. To
contemplate the beauties of this earth and the beauty of Love we have to share with
every passerby. To give of our Love freely as the flowers give freely of their fragrance
that breathes over our toiled and tattered soul, never asking for recognition or
repayment. It's only desire is to give of itself and in so doing rejuvenates those that
inhales it's essence.
We feel that giving is a virtue but so is there virtue in receiving. In order for there to
be a giver there has to be a willing receiver. Our Source of Life is the greatest giver of
all, but, we are reluctant or even fearful to accept the bounty that surrounds us, the
love, the beauty, the gift of life, all that is magnificent we do not see because we have
become complacent and do not recognize all that has been given unto man because
the glitter of this world has blinded our sight and therefore we have chosen to stay
within the confines of our self made prison, believing that our prison walls are our
protection.
Man withholds from one another, waiting to make sure that the receiver is worthy of it's
gain. He is the only one of creation that fails to give freely. The vegetation serves
those that hunger, the air that we breathe does not abstain from it's breeze but
gives without prejudice. The flowers do not judge the one that asks for its fragrance.
All of nature is a source of giving and man is the source of withholding, in fear of
tomorrow's turmoil that doesn't arrive. We look at nature and marvel at its gifts but fail
to see the lesson.
We pride ourselves in the fact that we are human and have dominion over our
environment not realizing that we are not yet fully integrated, we are not yet fully
human for we do not know who we are, but stumble around as an infant, refusing
to take hold of the invisible hand of God.
We claim that we are free and we celebrate that freedom, but how can we rise above
our judgements of right and wrong, above the positives and negatives of our life until
we break the shackles that we have bound ourselves with during the mid days of our
life.
We say we are free, but the illusions of that dream keeps our hunger for Truth in the
realm of satisfaction. We are not free until the right and wrongs vanish from us and all
become one. There is no right and wrong, there is only the lessons that our
experiences teach us. We must continue to reach our hand upward in search of Truth
and oneness, to become one with the One. Perhaps our truest freedom is when our
Spirit separates from our body, which then, allows us to see the truth of that Oneness
and we at last hold hands with our creator.
And what of death? Death is seen as our biggest enemy, but is it? We live in this
world but our eyes are closed and our steps are halted, not knowing what we see
and always in search for the elusive happiness and contentment that always appears
to taunt us on our journey. We live as captives behind gated communities and
high walls to protect the insignificant bobbles we have accumulated. We battle with
our neighbors because they do not think as we do, we do all we can to stave off the
sicknesses that attack without warning. We complain that we are too hot or too cold or
that we are not acknowledged. We dream the dream of lack and insecurities and
when the reality of our Angel of Death knocks we are fearful and cling to the dream.
We live in eternal life, we have been and always will be; eternal life is not waiting for
us, eternal life is what we are, for we are the children of our Source. Death
is but the doorway to new and more enlightened experiences, a time to reflect and to
gain in understanding and appreciation for the ALL.
We seek with all our hearts to know and to understand God, we praise Him and desire
to be close. We speak of His name with reverence and yet in reality we hide from His
presence. We seek what we do not know with diligence and then turn around and
kill, and maim the children whom He loves and adores.
Would our earthly father love the child that kills his brother, would he celebrate the
name of the son that spills the blood or takes food from the mouths of His babies? Yet
we feel justified in killing for gain and withholding sustenance from the poor and then
ask for favors for our own daily bread and protection from our enemies. Best to ask
that Our Father protect and feed all of His children. When we ask that of God, God
responds to us and petitions us to act on His behalf. Oh Wayward children of
our Father, awaken to your Father's voice, hear His entreaty. Just as His Son fed the
multitudes so we must also care for our human family. We are all His children, we are
all loved, and it is His desire for all of His children to be loved by one another and to
watch over His creation.
Walk tenderly upon the breast of our Mother earth, Be still and breathe in the flavors of
Her perfume. Know that God dwells in silence and speaks softly to our hearts. Man,
with all of his intelligence seeks noise and clammer, desiring entertainment. Sit
amongst the trees, be in awe of the whisperings of the breeze, all that is and all that
will ever be is of the Infinite.
Our true Father is deathless, we inherit death because of our humanness but our Spirit
born of the Father is deathless which has been bestowed upon us by our Spiritual
Father. Our bodies will find it's way back to the dust and our Spirit will find it's way
back to the Father, to become one with the Infinite. To dance among the stars and
relish in the joys and laughter of the expanse. To find solace from the war zones of
our earthly travels. Our bodies are but fragile paper of which contain our unwritten
words of emotion that speaks of our brief time spent in search of meaning.
Mankind feels that they are capable of being independent, to be a hermit among their
brothers, but that is an untruth. If the earth contained but only one man he would never
mature, he would never find compassion, love or the ability to share. His knowledge
would be barren due to an unproductive life, we live together that we might learn
together the secrets that are contained in the tears of humanness.
Speak of your pain that you might find compassion, speak of your joy that your joy
may give birth to more joy. The words of wisdom breathe new life into the tired souls.
Give of your wisdom, and learn from those that seek Truth, so that you may wear the
pearls of insight close to your heart.
Adam and Even lost their garden of Love and began living in the land of fear,
separated from their God, forgetting who they are. We have the choice to live in that
lost land. To produce within ourselves the necessary fruits of the Spirit, so that we
might edify those that touch us. Each person grows their own garden according to
their ability.
We can either see weeds growing that choke our joy in living or we can see in each
person the miracle of their existence, Knowing that each person is a flower within our
garden.
It is our responsibility to keep our thoughts pruned, to meditate upon the
miracles of our life, to be appreciative of the Spirit that indwells not only our own body
but the body of each person that we come in contact with. We have been given much
but our passion is for the material things of this world instead of the Spiritual
abundance that is hidden within the heart of understanding.
We may feel that we are of no need of other humans, yet it is our interaction with others
that infuses us with compassion, love, forgiveness, beauty, joy, happiness,
appreciation, kindness, giving, hope, it is the rainbow of various hues that meld into
the one magnificent person that we become. We could not become fully human
without each other, we are many but we are One.
I had mentioned before that those that have a heart of love give of that love freely to
those that are in need of refreshment however those that do not have a heart of love
use their fear and mental anguish to infect those that come near with their negativity
and turn happiness into sadness thus putting us in a hellish state of mind, which
separates us from our creator.
