I Receive

Posted on by

I receive the first rays of sunlight
dancing upon my face
with its sweet delicious awakening.

I receive the gentle caress
of the breeze upon my skin
as it wanders its way from the sea.

I receive the swell of birdsong
as they welcome the day
enlivening nature’s harmonies.

I receive the serenity
and peace of mind
that lingers from a long restful slumber.

I receive the infinite love
that overflows
from the chalice of my heart.

I receive the joy
that bubbles from within each of my cells
happy to be in physical form.

I receive the playfulness of the faeries
as they scamper about the forest
in childish delight.

I am full
I am overflowing
I am enlivened,
there is no want
there is no need,
there is only gratitude
for the eternal flow
of All That Is.

Resting in the Peace of the Divine

Posted on by

I awoke this morning
hanging out with God
free of time and space
free of thoughts
free of words
in a sweet vibration of BEing
all that I AM
all that I shall be
all I ever have been.

I take a deep breath and linger
as long as my mind allows
and to my surprise
my mind is here too
resting in the peace
of the Divine
no need for thought
no need for words
simply the bliss of BEing.

Gratitude for all we’ve been Given

Posted on by

The rivers of expansion
have been running
powerfully fast,
more quickly than
we’ve been able
to fully perceive
sometimes caught
in the turbulence of rip tides
sometimes surfing the waves
sometimes shouting
in jubilant delight.

There comes a time
when we need to
branch off and
find a gentle tributary
allowing our boat to drift
through the tendrils of nature
to soothe and caress
to breathe deeply of the fresh air
run our fingers through the quiet water
and sing sweet lullabies of gratitude
for all we have been given.

Dive Into the Depths

Posted on by

Transition
always stirs
our unconsciousness
with clear intent.

Amidst the stormy waters,
the surface thrashes about
to clear the old debris
while tranquility
is ever present
in the depths.

Dive deeply BeLoveds,
dive into the depths
of your Heartspace
allowing
the innate wisdom
of the storm to do its job.

There is no need
to be thrashed about
when your Heartspace
is always available
as your personal
place of solace.

Dive deeply BeLoveds,
for Serenity
is your sacred gift
from the Divine.

Allowing the Spaciousness

Posted on by

Spaciousness is …
the space between each breath,
each thought, each experience.

Spaciousness is …
the womb of creation,
where you plant your seeds.

Spaciousness is …
the answer to the questions
that have yet to be asked.

Spaciousness is …
your innate
guidance system.

Spaciousness is …
the support and nurturance
of your desires.

Spaciousness is…
the core of your
Well-being.

Spaciousness is …
the potency of
All-That-Is.

Spaciousness
expands in
response to you.

The more space
you allow in your life,
the more potent it becomes.

The Need for Space

Posted on by

As the world explodes
with a cacophony
of mental chatter,
emotional turmoil
and external stimulus,
I need space,
lots
of
space.

Space between
my thoughts,
Space between
my actions,
Space between
my desires.

‘Tis the space
betwixt it all
that allows
the Divine
to breathe into me
to soothe,
to gentle,
to caress.

‘Tis the space
betwixt it all
that allows
the Divine
to breathe into me
to rejuvenate,
to revitalize,
to enliven.

‘Tis the space
betwixt it all
that allows
the Divine
to breathe into me
bringing me
back to life
as my Soul
knows itself
to be.

Seeking Joy

Posted on by

Seeking the big explosions of joy
is an ego-based addiction.
When I recognize the simplicity
of being happy and content
no matter where I am
joy effortlessly becomes
my dominant reality
and the rest of the world joins me
in that natural state of being.

Richness of this Moment

Posted on by

When I become silent
free of the chatter
and totally empty
I realize the richness
of this moment
that’s flowing
with infinite inspiration
and infinite potentials.

It’s not stemming
from the past
nor rearranging the old
within the constructs
of the mind.

It’s fresh and new
free and inspiring
flowing from the Divine
with all the pieces
already in place
with all the support
I need to fulfill it
and wings to fly.

Intensity

Posted on by

 

Things only feel “in~tense”
when you bring the illusion
of the outer world
inside and embody it.

The more you do this
the more you crowd out
your Divinity
where peace and harmony reign
no matter what
the external world suggests.
