I Am Love

Human love with all its limitations
requires an exchange of love
I give you love
and consequently
I expect your love in return.

Whereas, 
Divine Love is an energy
radiating from within my heart
ever present, ever expanding
without any need for
measurement, exchange, nor possession.

I AM Divine Love
therefore. . .
I have no need to give love
I have no need to receive love
because
I AM already Love.

You are Divine Love
therefore. . .
there is no need to give love
there is no need to receive love
because
You are already Love.

When I know myself as Love
and
You know yourself as Love,
We are free to Love fully
as Sovereign Beings
in Love with All That Is.

Dispelling the Fear of Darkness

There is no war
between the dark and the light
the darkness does not fight the light
it can not
for when you shine the light upon it
the darkness disappears
of its own accord.

It is only your fear of the darkness
that protects it,
be courageous enough
to shine your Light
reveal the boogie man
for what he is
the illusion of your fear.

And now,
you have the luxury
to enjoy peace and comfort
in the womb of darkness
for it is a place of rest
a place of nurturance
and a place of rejuvenation.

Shadows in Search of Love

Our lurking shadows are our wounded parts
“acting out” in search of Love.

Those shadows are a sacred part of us
isn’t it time to invite them into our heart space
to be nurtured with love and compassion
just like an innocent wounded child.

When we do, they revel in our love
and blossom into full radiant color
rather than continuing to “act out”
as the shadows of black and white.

Beyond the Human Perspective

It is never up to you to change another person

Consider how you feel
when someone wants to change you

However, we can change the relationship itself
by going beyond our limited human perspective

A sincere conversation
between our Higher Self
and the Higher Self of another
has the potential to expand
the consciousness of both
to create a new enlightened relationship
that bleeds over into all our relationships

BE the change you desire in another
and watch your whole world evolve
in ways you could never have imagined.

Becoming the Prayer

You can pray
for whatever you desire,
but understand
YOU are the one
who you are praying to.

And once you speak the prayer
your Inner BEing
begins to transform your life
moment by moment
until you have BECOME
that which you have prayed for.

YOU are the embodiment of All That Is
YOU are the CREATOR of your reality.

Diet of the Mind

The human mind is hungry for drama
for it makes it feel alive
thus it is constantly
stirring the embers of drama
to feel worthy of itself.

What if you introduce the mind
to a more enticing diet:
a diet of Love
without the need to protect
a diet of Peace
in sync with your Soul
a diet of Harmony
that spurs new creative flow
a diet of Joy
alive with laughter.

Then the mind would feel
tenderly nurtured
deliciously satiated
enthralled with the beauty of life
honored as royalty

And . . .
the incessant hunger for drama
would cease to exist.

I AM the Universe

There are moments
when I can hear
the entire Universe
singing within me
and I know that
I AM the Universe.

These moments
are being strung together
like precious pearls
completing the circle
from whence I’ve come,
Home again at last.

Soft Surrender to the Power of the Divine

I awoke enveloped in softness
a peaceful gentle softness
taking me deeper into the core of my Beingness
without the need to rush into the day.

I awoke enveloped in softness
relaxed and fluid
free of the angst of the world
without any need for protection or barriers.

Funny how we think of soft and gentle
as weak and cowardice,
when in reality
with softness
I feel no need to be brave and strong.

Instead,
I feel a strength in being soft and gentle
for it is rooted in Love and Peace
at the sweet sweet center of the feminine
in soft surrender to the power of my Divinity.

Nurturing Your Dreams

Dreaming your life
into manifestation
is unfaltering
you can dream it consciously
or you can dream it unconsciously
the dream doesn’t care
it simply dreams.

Nurturing your dreams
is like being the matriarch of a family
sometimes you are focused
on the collective of all your children
sometimes you are focused
on a single individual
as part of the collective.

Just like children,
dreams are not controllable
they can not be manipulated
for they are a co-creation with the Divine
guiding you along your Soul’s path
to manifest and expand
your creative consciousness.

Just like children,
dreams are nurtured into blossoming
with infinite potentials to expand and grow
with the multidimensionality of the Universe
even in the midst of chaos
or the midst of your scatted thoughts
it only requires the focus of your attention.

By being consciously aware of your focus
you are capable of dreaming Heaven on Earth
for yourself and for the collective
for it’s all part of your Divine Creation.

Love your Humanness

I Love you, says Source . . .

I love your body
for it is the illustrious temple that houses me
I love your mind
for it is it allows you to grow in understanding
I love your spirit
for it is gives credence to your expanded consciousness.
I love your humanness
for it expresses All-That-Is in a myriad of ways.

Without you I would be no-thing.
Without your body, mind, spirit and humanness
you would be no-thing.

Love your body
Love your mind
Love your spirit
Love your humanness
Rejoice in the Being you have become
and the Being that continues to expand
because of your Love.
