Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel
Saint Michael the Archangel, Defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray.

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power And the glory Forever and ever. Amen.

The Twenty-third Psalm

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil For Thou art with me. Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies. Thou annointest my head with oil. My cup runneth over. Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Amen.

To the Gift of Life and all those that are dedicated to Creation | Happy Mother's Day

2011-05-08T07:11:00.000-04:00

I Want to Walk as a Child of the Light

Words by Kathleen Thomerson

I want to walk as a child of the Light

I want to follow Jesus

God set the stars To give light to the world

The Star of my life is Jesus.

Refrain

In Him there is no darkness at all

The night and the day are both alike

The lamb is the Light of the city of God

Shine in my heart Lord Jesus.

I want to see the Brightness of God

I want to look at Jesus

Clear Son of righteousness shine on my path

And show me the way to the Father.

I'm looking for the coming of Christ

I want to be with Jesus

When we have run, with patience, the race

We shall know the joy of Jesus.

Victim of Assault and Direct Attack

2011-02-13T11:07:00.000-05:00

YOU need a miracle.

I am sending love and light to surround you and protect you. I am praying for the universe to step up and step in to find a protection barrio to allow you to overcome and restore you family with the love and support you need to be with your precious children. I am commanding with a full heart deeply rooted in all there is in this universe which is pure and true to keep that which is harming you from you and allow you to find your strength and power again. I pray that you will have those you need to support you, help you, believe in you, fear not those that have harmed you, harassed you and hurt you and your children, I pray with all my power that those that are there to condemn you find a crack in their harden heart to open the depths of their soul and allow the truth be known and justice be done to restore this spinning out of control situation. YOU have my prayers. YOU have my light. YOU have my power. YOU can through the powers of the universe overcome and exceed beyond all expectation. Through Jesus’ name and the name of all that have been here to help guide us and help us discover the depth of who we are and the power we hold.

I do not know what that looks like, but I can tell you that if you can believe and cling to the hope of possibility, then opportunity will find you. Decide what you have the power over. Find some way to let go of the devastation by asking for divine intervention and find a calm resolved central core to speak your truth and speak calmly and clearly regarding your situation. Breath and ask for the power greater than us share your story. Get someone … anyone… to video tape the proceeding if at all possible. Find a way.

http://targetfree.blogspot.com/ is where I am currently putting up the research I have found in the short term to help understand these actively deniable assaults.

I am so very sorry. I know you must be devastated. YOUR testimony and your stance can and will make a difference. YOU know you have been here to find a way to help people… THIS story potentially could help so many. Who have you contacted? Do you know about Directed Energy? Stalkers are used by different groups for targeting. Anyone can be targeted for any reason. NONE has to make sense. DE will cause delays in abilities and behavior nightmares. I believe these are all associated with mini seizures where the brain is targeted and gets stuck. DE can do this. I thought for the last year that it was toxicity. But know I know that the DE which contributes to the toxicity is the root cause. I am working with many experts to find ways to lessen the assaults, heal the body and protect from future assaults.

To endure all this for so long by yourself is horrifying.
My heart goes out to you…
PLEASE hang in there… let me know if there is anything I can do… there are options … let see what the universe/god can do … get on your knees and with all your power call them to you… ground the strength of mother earth… ask for your supreme guidance … ask for all your protection angels and guides… ask for immediate healing… ask for divine intervention. WITH ALL YOUR POWER in full glory… restore your being, your health, your mind, your spirit, your soul, your emotional balance and navigation…. RESTORE… HEAL… and then pull the power from all that surrounds you to find the path that will allow you to stop your harassment and have a ripple effect from here to eternity….

YOU have all that I have to give you the spark you need to bring all this in your own name and your own power!

Blessings and prayers…

FIND YOUR MIRACLE!~ SAVE YOURSELF, YOUR FAMILY AND SO MANY OTHERS!

Blessings for Hugh Wiley and his beloved family during this time ...

2011-02-10T21:02:00.002-05:00

Our dear friend's son lost his battle with cancer today. Our love and light surrounds him and his family. The loss of a child is unthinkable. Hugh's light shined brightly and touched many lives. May the love of this child fill the hearts of those with the unbearable pains of his loss so that they can endure this time finding the love and the support to traverse the gaps in their lives. We send all the love we can share...

My Dear Family and Friends,

Please pray for my friend, Carter Wiley and his family. After two long years of fighting cancer, their young son being the age 4 when they found the cancer has passed away at age 6 six yesterday. Their full attention, care and love focused on doing everything under the son to heal their child.

Please send your love and support to lift this family up and may they find a way through the darkness to raise their other young son, Hugh’s older brother James, to live the fullest life possible. May they heal as a family and become stronger through this loss and not drift apart in devastation. May each of them rediscover the life within them and the power to live the fullest they can loving every moment that they share in relationship within this realm. Lift them up during this time. Their journey has been so long and they are so tired. Their spirits have agonized over the suffering of a small child and would gladly given anything to change the path they have found themselves on.

Please hold a light for them to allow this time to pass surrounded by love, family and friends filling the depths and restoring all that pains.

May they know the peace that is now with their son in eternity and that all is well and whole with him. He is safe, and though he though not here right now, shared a special time with his family during his short life here on earth. His love echoes the time of eternity.

May they rediscover the depths of who they each are individually and rise up to live their fullest lives within their fullest power.

In Jesus’ name and in the name of all eternity that allows us this precious time here on earth to live, to love and to laugh, I pray they feel the love of those that hear their woe (even if we cannot fathom the loss of a small child.)
Many blessings to you and those you love,

Deborah

greater good for all

2011-02-10T20:55:00.000-05:00

An ancient Tibetan mantra originating from the famous Heart Sutra. One interpretation is that for seeking the greater good for all, one goes beyond the concepts learned in the past and finds new ways that suit the present situation best. Contemplating it removes the grip of outdated habits of thinking and opens our mind for new creative ideas that can pave the way into a better future.

Hopi Elders Speak

2010-11-04T14:59:00.000-04:00

“Hopi Elders Speak”

You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour.

Now you must go back and tell the people that this is The Hour.

There are things to be considered:

Where are you living?

What are you doing?

What are your relationships?

Are you in right relation?

Where is your water?

Know your garden.

It is time to speak your Truth.

Create your community.

Be good to each other.

And do not look outside yourself for the leader.

This could be a good time!

There is a river now flowing very fast.

It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid.

They will try to hold on to the shore.

They will feel they are being torn apart, and they will suffer greatly.

Know the river has its destination.

The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river,

Keep our eyes open and our heads above the water.

See who is there with you and celebrate.

At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally.

Least of all ourselves.

For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.

The time of the lone wolf is over.

Gather yourselves!

Banish the word struggle from your attitude and vocabulary.

All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.

We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.

The Elders

ATTITUDES | Charles Swindoll

2010-10-28T20:24:00.001-04:00

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitudes on life. Attitudes, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearances, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We can not change our past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one thing we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you... We are in charge of our Attitudes!"

My grandmother decided to move into a assisted living two bedroom apartment after we could not get her from doing all the things she use to do around her house like: painting, working in the yard or on the roof! She finally hired some one to help her in the yard. She worked the weed wacker and chain saw while the helper held the bag for the debris. We know where I get my strong constitution from! She finally moved in her 80s. We enjoyed our visits. This is the quote she had on her refrigerator every time we visited. I loved it and knew how true these words are in life. I wrote it down on my grandfather's work stationary from thirty years ago. Grandmother I miss you!

There are so many things in life we do not have control over. We do control our attitudes. This quote is a wonderful reminder!

Your Children… Your Choice… Your Rights… Autism Awareness

2010-10-24T19:25:00.000-04:00

Your Children… Your Choice… Your Rights…

Autism Awareness

They looked at me with compassion.

I hadn't a clue why.

Then they told me my son was challenged

and I began to cry.

Your son may be Autistic or

have some related disease.

I've never heard of it, I said.

Explain it to me please?

It occurs one in every sixty seven births,

Four times more often in boys.

Families of all racial and ethnic backgrounds,

Regardless of stature or poise.

It's a Lifelong neurological impairment

That affects the ability to speak,

Play or socially interact.

I felt my knees grow weak.

My husband took me in his arms;

We held each other tight.

My five year old beside me asking,

Mommy, is Stevie all right?

We wouldn't have known there was a problem,

If not for his speech delay.

We thought he was just a little shy,

And preferred solitary play.

When she said they don't know what causes it,

I just wanted to die.

My God, this isn't happening,

They can't even tell us why?

God is not sleeping, I said to myself

Over and over again;

Holding fast to my faith in God

To help me endure the pain.

Clearly there needs to be research.

It's imperative we find a way

Of getting the programs funded,

If we're ever to gain some headway.

Our children are so precious.

They look to us for care.

Let's show them how much we love them

and make everyone aware.

Light verses the Dark

2010-10-20T04:15:00.000-04:00

Right now we are in a very revealing time.

Each of us are being called to choose...

Where do we stand?

What are we willing to do?

The choice is ours.

Either we want to turn on the light and make sure everything is alright ...

or we want to stay in the dark fearing one reason or another what will be brought to light.

Are we scared?

Are we denying the truth of our souls and of this world?

Why are we frozen and blind?

Those willing to ask yet turn away, have a change and can make the choice...

Others are completely blind.

They are filling up with so many out of control feelings and spinning out of control.

The key is to remain strong.

Stay deep in the center of your being.

Call on your creator to give you strength.

Ask your highest self, your sacred soul, the holy spirit to show you the way.

Make the choice...

Believe...

This is where we change the world.

Be strong and do what is in your heart for all the right reasons...

Be well for all is well.

The world we see is a reflection of the brokenness of the past...

Our hearts have already laid the path...

We are stepping out in faith to paint the future.

Stay true for the work is almost done!

Allow the light to fill all the corners of this world and bring us into this new time!

Let it shine... Let it shine...

Blessings to all those who have endured and kept the faith...

Blessings to all those that have taken others by the hand to show them the light...

Blessings to all those that has taken a huge step out in faith to find the road has met their feet....

Blessings to all those that are lost in the dark, scared, angry, frozen and spinning destruction in every direction...

....For they are the ones that have pushed the rest of us to do and be what we need right now...

Blessings to all and thank you from the depths!

The Armor of God | Ephesians 6:10-20

2010-10-19T17:53:00.000-04:00

10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.11 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

19Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, 20for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.

A Prayer to My Mother and All Those Struggling to Fulfill Their Mission Here on Earth!

2010-10-14T15:40:00.000-04:00

Mom,

I love you and I pray that you are feeling better… may you be surrounded by angels and may you find a new level of protection that keeps all harmful things away from you and only draws that which is for your highest good. May all evil and all that has cursed you, haunted you, attacked you be released and not allowed to come into your presence any longer. May you know a new level of healing and feel the love and light that surrounds you. May the years of struggle be a surrender to your higher best self to fulfill your will here on earth.

I love you and with my full heart I send all that there is to give you strength, love, light, power and glory for you to be all that you in your fullest glory and right.

In Jesus’ name, may you be safe, full and complete in all that you are!

All my love, prayers and blessings… be well and know you are loved,

Your daughter,

Deborah Sue Pomeroy Reckmeyer

I love you!

The Blessing Transformation | Michael King

2010-10-10T19:43:00.000-04:00

A Powerful Tool for Making Positive Changes in Your Personal World

With each blessing, take a few moments to feel the presence of Love grow inside as your blessing flows out toward its intended recipient.

Breathe in the blessing, then breathe out all inner resistance to seeing the recipient receive this goodness. Take one or more deep breaths following each blessing. (Important: this breath exercise is essential to your success!)

FROM THE INNERMOST DEPTHS OF MY HEART:

I BLESS MYSELF

I BLESS MY SOUL’S PRESENCE WITHIN

I BLESS THE EXPRESSION OF MY SOUL UPON THE EARTH

I BLESS MY LIFE - PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

I BLESS MY HEALTH AND WELL BEING

I BLESS MY HAPPINESS

I BLESS MY HOME

I BLESS ALL OF MY CLOSEST AND MOST CHERISHED RELATIONSHIPS

I BLESS ALL OF MY FRIENDS AND BUSINESS ASSOCIATES

I BLESS EVERYONE WHO OPPOSES ME OR SEEKS MY HARM

I BLESS MY SPIRITUAL GROWTH AND AWAKENING

I BLESS MY GREATER UNDERSTANDING OF THE TRUE NATURE OF LIFE

I BLESS MY INCREASE IN COMPASSION TOWARD SELF AND OTHERS

I BLESS THE CRYSTAL CLEAR IMAGE OF THE LIFE I CHOOSE TO LIVE

I BLESS THE FULFILLMENT OF MY PURPOSE IN LIFE

I BLESS ALL OF MY BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL ENDEAVORS

I BLESS MY ONGOING SUCCESS AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF MY DREAMS

I BLESS THE COMMUNITY IN WHICH I LIVE

I BLESS THE ENLIGHTENMENT OF OUR COUNTRY AND ITS LEADERSHIP

I BLESS OUR JOINT FOCUS ON THE UPLIFTMENT OF ALL HUMANITY

I BLESS ALL WHO PROMOTE THE GOOD OF HUMANKIND

I BLESS THE ESTABLISHMENT OF GLOBAL HARMONY AMONG NATIONS

I BLESS THE NATURAL BEAUTIFICATION OF THE EARTH

I BLESS THE TRUE PURPOSE OF HUMANITY IN THE GRAND

UNFOLDMENT OF LIFE

I BLESS THE SOURCE OF LIFE

I BLESS LIFE ITSELF

Begin with the blessings above, then add to them as you feel inspired. Be as specific as you wish. With each new repetition, imagine with greater and greater clarity, the details of each successful fulfillment until you are immersed in the serene experience of each new manifestation.

To Bless Means ‘To Give Goodness To’

The wisest and most powerful blessings (in a life-changing way) are those given with the understanding that what we give to another, we have just given to ourselves, and what we give to ourselves will naturally be reflected in the world we see around us. In this manner, Good (God) grows and expands within all – resulting in powerful, life-transforming events! The purpose of The Blessing Transformation is to affect a change (a
transformation) within the interactions of humanity by first affecting a change within ourselves. In this way we exert the most powerful influence possible toward making an improvement in the world around us. As our inner world changes for the better, we compel the powers of Nature to reconstruct our outer world so as to reflect an exact image of this change back to us. By giving out an abundance of goodness (and thereby reversing any tendency toward the opposite), an abundance of goodness must return back to us as a due
reflection. Performed daily, and with each repetition, new levels of inner clarity are formed within, resulting in new images in our mirror – the world around us. In this manner, one person in quiet solitude, or one small group with a common vision, can affect an improvement in global events by reducing the quantity of
personal resistance attitudes (fear, anger, resentment, retaliation, despair, etc.) that negativity feeds on and must have to exist, while at the same time, increasing the positive flow of goodness (understanding, compassion, acceptance, cooperation, etc.) that ultimately fills the earth like sunshine, which
then inspires the change.

You will be the first to notice this change, for it will first take place within you.

The Blessing Transformation begins with:

“FROM THE INNERMOST DEPTHS OF MY HEART:”

First, quietly make this statement, then feel love grow & expand within your heart as you pour out a river of goodness to each area. With each blessing, take a few moments to feel the blessing expand and flow out toward its intended recipient. As resistance shows up within, ask yourself this one question: “What is the
True Nature of Life (Love) in an instance just like this?” Then contemplate Love’s inherent qualities: unconditional loving presence, compassionate understanding, unconditional innocence, infinite creative freedom, etc. Then open your heart further and pour a more loving choice into these unhappy places inside. Remember, within all unhappiness, lives a life-changing gift!

As the resistance begins to melt away, breathe deeply several times until you enter into a place of inner stillness, then bask in the calming, the peace, the freedom, and the vitality that comes from this giving of goodness.

As a quiet presence grows within, dwell upon the deeper meaning of the blessing and feel its impact upon the world while holding the Equalizing Posture (fingers curled within each other), and in this way, anchor your new experience permanently within. Then go on to the next blessing.

You Will Have Life | Written by my nine year old daughter

2010-09-13T22:30:00.001-04:00

I am in the darkness.
I can not see the light,
But I see something up ahead.
I see a light.
I walk to the light and I see an angel.
She said to me, "Do not be afraid."
The Angel said, "I come to you.
You will be born and you will have life!"

By Alexandra, age 9

Human Suffering

2010-08-07T00:41:00.000-04:00

Our world is at a point where so many are lost and suffering. They spend their whole lives dedicated to having more and doing better than what was given to them to find themselves still not fulfilled and alone with no idea what direction to go.

My heart breaks for all the lost souls that want so much more than they have been able to realize in this lifetime.

Its not from a lack of concern, a lack of effort or even a lack of love. They live life, they do their best and they chase after every possible solution to fulfill their woes, yet they could not navigate this game we call life. They have tried and in the end lost… their souls ripped apart and trapped in the prison somehow they created from their many failed efforts. They gambled and lost. They thought they knew what they wanted. They believed in something that was not real. They went down one too many of the wrong paths to find themselves up against the wall with no more moves.

My heart breaks for all those that could not find the light in the center of their being that gives them the guidance, the support, the push, the hint, the strength and all they need to make each step of this journey.

My heart breaks for those that signed up to come into this time and space lost and alone, wanting to rise above to only find that they could not jump high enough, endure well enough or figure out the maze of confusion to reach the other side beyond the point of devastation.

My heart breaks for those that have no hope, that have no understanding beyond the limitations of this time and space and that have no comfort through their trails that reach beyond this realm.

I would love to save the world and bring peace to all those wanting more, but that is not what this world is meant to provide.

We are faced in this world with a challenge. We are thrown into one situation or another fit perfectly for our circumstance to push us out of our comfort zones to realize a depth, a realness and new understanding beyond our once simple view of life. These opportunities provide us with a choice to embrace and push through to a richer experience or one to shrink back and loose what we value most within this dimension of reality, the opportunity to expand beyond our current form and realize a depth beyond simple comprehension. This is shaping our spirit.

We want to feel beyond a mental construct. This world allows us to know the contrast with our suffering. What is joy without the lack of joy? What is true happiness without the lack of this elation? What is love without knowing the depth of losing love, being hated or living the life of indifference?

This world provides us with the chance to stretch ourselves beyond our current limitations and know the depth of this experience in a new way. The sufferings of others too can broaden our lives. Connecting at the depths with those that cross our path can radically change our world. Stretching out and doing the unexpected and bring forth the most amazing change. Hope is a spark in a field of darkness. No one knows where this light will shine or where it will lead.

The angels in this world work though simple people like us. Our past has burned us and locked our journeys deep within our beings. Our spirits want to be free and know the heights of truly living. Many have become lost in the endless cages that trap our spirits. Next time you are out seeing the world with new eyes, touch someone, give them something more than they expected, and show them a glimpse of the humanity, the best of humanity, which has become a rare almost extinct breed. Revive the glimmer of hope within your own being by restoring some brightness to another.

This world is filled with so much darkness. Many are lost and alone. Children suffer needlessly. The elderly believe no one cares and the world has passed them by. We do not want to look at the misfortunes of this world and lock ourselves in pretend worlds filled with false elixirs hoping to live happily forever.

The truth is our journey wares on our soul. The journey can weaken our beings. We lose our way. Our burden becomes too great. We lose faith. We sell ourselves short. We find no more solace in this world. We turn a blind eye. We no longer try.

If you were that child being beaten, what would you want others to do? If you were that old lady crying silent tears of unfulfilled dreams, what would bring you peace? If you were that young mother with little children suffering, what would you do? If you were the man face down in the gutter, what would have driven you too that point?

It’s easy to turn your head and walk away. The simple path is to keep your eyes on your own life and ignore what you see, hear and know. This is the wide gate that the many go through. The narrow gate deep within your soul is the one that take the courage to stand up and be counted. The inner knowing that what you choose is the right thing not the easy thing. Finding the true understanding that when you stretch out the help those that do not expect your care, your efforts will influence this world beyond our understanding.

My heart aches for all those we walk by without even noticing their pain. My soul cries for the unheard screams that go unanswered.

Each of us can do more, be more and become a greater version of ourselves. With a little effort by each of us, all of us will be in a better place.

My heart goes out and my prayer is that your will as well.

Now is the time.

Don't name a pig you plan to eat.
Your fences need to be horse high, pig tight, and bull strong.
Life ain't about how fast you run, or how high you climb, but how well you bounce.
Keep skunks and bankers and lawyers at a distance.
Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.
A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.
Words that soak into your ears are whispered .not yelled.
Meanness don't jest happen overnight.
Forgive your enemies. It messes up their heads.
Don't sell your mule to buy a plow.
Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.
It doesn't take a very big person to carry a grudge.
You cannot unsay a cruel word.
Every path has a few puddles.
When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.
If the ring is on his finger he's there 'cause he wants to be, if its through his nose, he always wants to break free
The best sermons are lived, not preached; and the truest religion is practiced by example not dictated..
Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway.
Don't squat down with your spurs on.
Don't judge folks by their relatives.
Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.
Always congratulate him for a good idea you gave him
Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.
Don't interfere with somethin' that ain't botherin' you none.
Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
It's better to be a has-been than a never-was.
The easiest way to eat crow is while it's still warm. The colder it gets, the harder it is to swaller.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.
If it don't seem like it's worth the effort, it probably ain't.
It don't take a genius to spot a goat in a flock of sheep.
Sometimes you get and sometimes you get got.
The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you shave his face in the mirror every mornin'.
If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around.
Don't worry about bitin' off more 'n you can chew; your mouth is probably a whole lot bigger'n you think.
A good horse is like a good man, they always follow the lead.
Only cows know why they stampede.
Always drink upstream from the herd. If you're ridin' ahead of the herd.
Take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there with y'all.
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from our experiencin bad judgment.
Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in.

Gold and trouble travel together like an old married couple
Before you draw lines over an argument figure out whet it is that's eatin at you both
Some days are diamonds. Some days are gold, Some days the bad times won't leave you alone. Like the weather your feelins about things always change.
The first time he throughs you it's an accident, the second time it's a dumb mistake, the third time it's a habit and time to get a new horse..

Where ever I am, God is. Amen.

I ask, want and need the Divine within myself to remove all the earthbound, demon and other entities, dark shields, dark energies, dark devices and dark connections from my body, aura, soul and cord, and also from my home, my play areas, my car, all the places I go and everything in them and miles and miles around them.
I ask, want and need the Divine within myself to locate and brink back my lost soul parts and cleanse, heal and integrate them with the main body of my soul.

I ask, want and need the Divine within myself to fill me and shield me with brilliant Divine Light bursting with all the colors of the rainbow, and to plug all the holes and tunnels in me and my surroundings.

I see a column of dazzling, shimmering, vibrant Divine Light bursting with all the colors of the rainbow coming from above my head filling my whole body, cleansing and healing every part, every cell and every organ of my body.

I see this Divine Light bursting with all the colors of the rainbow spreading an arm’s length all around me in every direction creating a cocoon, a protection layer, of Divine Light bursting with all the colors of the rainbow all around me.

I see this protection layer, cocoon, of Divine Light bursting with all the colors of the rainbow being covered with reflective spiritual mirrors, with the reflective mirror surface facing outwards.

I see this reflective cocoon, protective layer, spreading the Divine Light bursting with all the color of the rainbows all around.

I see my home, my car and all the places I live being cleansed, filled and shielded by brilliant, white, liquid Divine Light bursting with all the colors of the rainbow.

Living in Grace

2010-01-25T16:24:00.001-05:00

Philippians 4.5-8 (RSV).

"Let all men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand. Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things ".

Personally I believe that we cannot transverse this world alone. The burden is too much to bear. The joys are nothing if we do not share. Through our inner connections to God in the central core of our soul allows us the freedom to live in grace and beauty. Live life from the seat of our soul fully connected to realize our truest potentials. Here is the peace to be beyond the current limitations of our being. The circumstances we experience are not there for our simple initial reactions but to provide a platform to know ourselves more holy and more completely through the alpha and omega. Christ is the way shower on how to rise above and live more completely in our fullest essence of being. To be with Christ allows us to shine the essence of our higher self into this world. When we live in fear we lose our connections to our source of life. We are what we think, what we eat, what we do, what we see and what we say. To keep clear with our heavenly connections be mindful of all things and remain focused on our higher vision. Allow God to open the universe to our being. Hear the calls of the Holy Spirit within our world. Allow Christ to guide our steps. Thank you for the thoughts… be well.

" OH Great Spirit
who made all races,
look kindly upon the whole human family
and take away the arrogance and hatred
which separates us from our brothers/sisters "

Eleanor Strong Beyea, my maternal grandmother by Deborah Sue Pomeroy Reckmeyer

2010-01-18T19:17:00.002-05:00

My grandmother passed away this week.

Her funeral is going on as I type.

I have spent the last so many days going over all my experiences with my grandmother. The good, the bad and the rest. Life is always full and more complicated than if things were one way or another. The truth is that my grandmother lived a full life. She was from a different era. Raised on a plantation as an only child and later in the center of New Orleans. She married young and dreamed of a life...

Was that life she lived the one she dreamed as a small child... most likely not because somehow some form of reality sets in. Life gets in the way.

She moved far from all she knew once she was married. She was promised many things in an early marriage which most likely were far from the truth. She lived in the heavy snows of upper new york for way to long even though her husband took her home once a year. She raised two young children who were eight years approximately apart in age. She moved to texas at some point and built the life I knew since a small child.

Her two children grew up to be driven in their chosen professions. They left home and unlike children of today never returned. I remember organizing her 75th birthday which was the first time her two children were home with her since they were young. She was happy to have them until they kept telling all her friends proudly that they were their for her 75TH BIRTHDAY! Boy was she ticked off.

My grandmother was one to keep up appearances and never would divulge if something was amiss... at least not until you were back behind closed doors. I can look at someone and read their energy from far away. I can say my grandmother always came in loud and clear. Even when I visited her last fall when she could barely speak... her facial expressions said it all! I knew everyone of her looks, good and bad!

I was remembering all the times that I spent with her. She was a tough cookie. Loved to go out on the town, dine, dance and enjoy any type of party! She was ready at the crack of dawn for every day. When you came to visit, she would paint the whole house! She loved to express herself through her art and all that she did. After her husband died she taught kindergarten for many many years (sorry forgot what that plack said on the wall). She dance into her late eighties. She had to stop square dancing when her partner turned 90 and continued her line dancing until her feet would no longer listen to what her mind was telling her body. We loved Reese her square dancing partner!

She was a true member of her church and her community. She was at church most likely almost every day of the week. I know that she must have eaten at least 5 meals a week at the church's dinner hall. Her church had Tuesday Adventures, 50/50 class, Mr & Mrs, Sunday School, Retreats, Lectures and on and on. That was Highland Park Methodist Church. My grandmother was a member for over 50 years. My mother was married there and I was baptized there. We attended every visit. Many of times when I was a small child, I would contemplate what in the world does a big whale, a guy in a big red suit and a rabbit that carries eggs have to do with this big church where some guy every week tells stories ... The music in this big church was amazing. Even though I could not wrap my head around what all the church meant it was an amazing experience. Only later would I understand the depth and meaning of all the traditions.

We did love the magical experience of Christmas at Highland Park. Driving around the park cities and seeing all the beautiful white lights everyone puts up in their yards (figured someone was making a ton of money each year out doing the year before, but it was the best decorations I have yet to encounter!).

Grandmother was out of the old world. Dressed to the nines every time you saw her. She was like her Aunt Maude who kept a flat in New Orleans. We loved to visit Aunt Maude and Aunt Billy and Uncle Earl. When I was a child, this was pure fun. Aunt Maude never got married. From my understanding as a small child, she was too busy living life to get tied down. She had a closet filled with clothes and had wintergreen lifesavers in her purse. Always dolled up and heading somewhere with a plan for adventure! I remember when I was around 9 or 10 grandmother sent me a black bikini that was hand made. I asked her why she sent it since it was for a grown person! She said that Aunt Maude said to give it to me... I choked right there. I said, 'but grandma (this was before she told me when I was 18 that she hated being called grandma and wanted to be called grandmother! It only took her another 10 years to get my cousin and brother to do the same!)... I said, 'but grandma, aunt maude has been dead for years, why are you sending this to me now???' She said aunt maude told her to give it to me someday and this happens to be the day!

My grandmother was not always the easiest to deal with. She came from a world that you never did anything except what your elders told you no matter what you think. I think my uncle and my mother decided that distance was the best way to deal with her ... period. All the grandchildren tended to deal differently. My cousin always said 'yes grandmother' and kept doing what he was doing without paying her any mind. My brother either listened or did the opposite. Me ... I always spoke my mind. She would say my shorts are too short and I would say just the way I like them. 'Oh Grandma' which always ticked her off. We usually kept our boundaries. She would give me all kinds of looks. When I was younger she would say... 'oh I am so sorry you are having such a bad life.' I would tell her it is not a bad life... its just not exactly what I had envisioned but I did not regret anything because this is my life and my experience. I knew that I have not signed up for a 'regular' life. My job was to push the envelope and live fully finding that which is driving my soul. My family always wanted to push that into a box. Medical school, a porshe or something glamorous, living the fast fat life! Plus dont forget being the good little christain that met with their approval. Me... always saw things differently. I remember right after I had my little victoria, grandmother sent me 8 formal party dresses. I was shocked. I needed diapers, and other necessary baby things and all she could think about was me fiting back into my size 4 and going out on the town! Back then I was upset... now I see the way she saw the situation!

I can say that I have always looked for the good life. I have always looked for something real beyond the surface. I have always been deeper or more dedicated than most. Hard work and change has never scared me. I could pick up and change my world in a moment. I never did anything lightly. I could image a world and create anything. If things were not going as I planned, I could change gears and fade away! I would just build anew some where else. I have never tried to hide from any of my choices and have tried to be as clear as possible in all that I have done. In no way have I done it perfectly. When I was young coming from so much brokenness, wanting so much love to stop the pains of life, some choices were very poor in hind site. I was an emotional mess without even know what that meant. I have always been brilliant and capable of navigating the most complicated situations. My mom has always said that my biggest downfall is that I am too capable in too many areas. My curse is my blessing. Someday I will master all that is driving me deep in inside. I have learned to use the beauty of my right brain in cojunction with the brilliance of my left brain and that makes me very powerful. My vision is still shorter than I wish but when I ask deep into eternity, to God, why I can not see more I get a two fold response, that I would either run the other way or my ego would grow to much too fast in its ... grandeour. My depth of wisdom with the whole short vision drives me each step without getting too full of my self. Keeps me in check just as my grandmother did all those years. My 'oh grandma' kept me thinking. I would check my position and see what adjustments I needed to make to all that I was doing. Most importantly I learned to be true to myself no matter what anyone else believed.

Grandmother was that harsh measuring stick that I have taken to heart. Not saying she was always right but she did instill questioning and doing what was right even when it was hard!

Now the bobby pin curls in my very straight hair did drive me crazy. My dedication to good healthy food most likely came from her cautious way. She always had stock in her house of everything you could ever want. Meals were always balanced even though when she got married she couldnt boil water. She had a old cook book she promised to give me one day 'a way to a mans heart is through his stomach' but she in later years didnt know what happened to it (earmark, check amazon and ebay ~ tried years ago but couldnt find it or it cost too much since it was out of print!).

This last week I spent much time going over what I would have done differently with my grandmother... and I came up with three times I wished it had turned out differently, but none of them ultimately were within my power to change. Each time I did exactly what I needed to do and I would not have changed my actions. The funny thing is that all three have to do with our family history. The first was a cruise to the Netherlands to see our family heritage. I was supposed to have gone on with her right after graduation from high school but due to family issues at the time, I was not able to go. Another time she wanted to travel through the back country of Lousianna to visit where she grew up as a small child, but I found myself out of the country and not able to return. The third time I realized after she moved to her retirement home, we were visiting with the kids and my husband. I realized it would have been nice to do a semester at SMU and live with grandmother for at least a year. That would have been such an enriching experience. I am sure though at the time I thought it would be near impossible to spend that much time with my grandmother and never gave it another thought.

Early on our relationship was one of strong wills. Later we grew into a deep mutual respect. In the end she loved my children and they always made her smile. She thanked me for doing such a good job with my children. She was on the money with which child would be which way and beware! She said every time... I am so happy that you found your happiness, which was a change from the previous, I am so sorry you have had such a bad life. She loved my husband. She loved being with my family. One of her last visits was to my marriage to Robert. She had a grand time. She was the bell of the ball.

We visited her a few more times before she died. When she still had her apartment I spoke to her every other day telling her stories of the children and all our mishaps. She would share what was going on with all that she did in the home. I remember as a child you could never get her to stay on the phone for more than a minute. When my second child alexandra was in the hospital fighting for her life, I stayed at the Ronald McDonald House. They would give you 10 min phone cards. I would use them with my grandmother to keep her up to speed on Alexandra's situation, and I realized that at some point she moved away from just one minute on the phone always having to go somewhere else, to wanting to talk for longer and longer. I was apologizing that the cards cut her off AGAIN AND AGAIN.

When I spoke to her every other day, we truly had the best connection in this world. Our respect for each other was strong.

Then one day she fell. She was moved to the hospital. Shortly there after I was talking to the administrator of her apartment building about how important it is for grandmother to make the decision to move into a higher care section of the home. We were taking the different options that were possible. My uncle walked in and I never received another piece of information regarding my grandmother since that time period. In truth, over the next two years I only spoke to her on the phone maybe three or four times. I tried emailing through staffing but they were not allowed to communicate with me. Once was when my cousin answered the phone , he let me talk to her on her birthday two years ago. Another was when I called the nurses station to see if my grandmother was okay and she was sitting in the sun outside. They took the phone to her.

My uncle and his family shifted her from her apartment to full care without notice to my grandmother, my mother, my brother or myself. She moved and all her stuff was gone and that was that. Later I received a box with stuff I never had seen before, not the memories of all the things I grew up with. I was allowed to pick a hand full of her paitings from facebook and they were shipped. No note, no information, no nothing.

There were orders that if I was to receive any information to call my uncle. It is true that my uncle has been responsible for his mother since his father died in 1971. THAT is a very long time to secure her life and make sure all details are taken care of. I am sure it was a burden on himself and his family. I am sure being a general he did not want anyone into his business, BUT no matter his side of the story and his experience, there is the side of my grandmother, the side of myself, my mother and my brother.

Neither here nor there. I see the last two years as completely out of my control. I tried over and over to get my grandmother at the hospital. I tried to communicate with my uncle when I could. I tried to visit when money was tight. Bottom line is that there is no trying in life. You do or you do not. I did everything within my power to do the right thing and for reasons out of my control, I did not achieve my desired end. I did have a wonderful relationship with my grandmother. Though we could not communicate in the last couple years, we have a connection into eternity. At times it was tough to say the least. BUT in the end... I learned so very much from her. She loved life. She was an artist. She had a strong sense of who she was and what was right and wrong. She was determined to suceed in everything she set out to do. She loved relationships with people. She loved to travel. She loved to dance. She was creative, intuitive and strong. Though she was imperfect she dedicated herself to the fullest vision she could achieve.

I come from a long lineage of strong women. They have had their hardships with the men in their lives due to their strength, their depths, their emotional hypersensativity, their intuitive capabilities and their abilities to heal and help the suffering. My greatgrandmother had a home for the throw aways in this world. My grandmother dedicated her life to opening the minds of little children to wonder beyond their little worlds. She dedicated herself to those that suffer and are need in this world. My mother has dedicated herself to those that have been locked in their internal boxes and have suffered greatly due to the brokenness of this world.

We live in a world that is messed up on so many levels. We live in a world where life is so different than what we have been taught to believe. We are enslaved and do not even know it. We are killing ourselves and we do not even know it. We are so alone filled with so many holes in our soul we dont even know it. We are divided and scattered to the wind and do not even know it. The world we see is the brokenness of our souls. The left brain, egoic male mind has ruled this world for too long. The patriachs of this world have dominated our world into destruction.

The time is to unite our whole being and heal ourselves into our fullness of our true essence. My lineage is one that once held the esoteric understanding of this world. I see beyond the surface of this time to know that we can once again have all that we have lost. We can heal and grow back into our full glory. Not at some later date, but now, right now. This is the time we have been waiting for, and we are the ones they have talked about through out time. Our ancesters were not primitives that did not hold sacred wisdoms... they were fully enlightened beings that fell from grace. We have climbed back up from the depths. The time is now to release ourselves from the chains that have held us down for too long.

In my grandmothers name, Eleanor Strong Beyea, I take back my full power. The patriarch of my family no longer hold the power over me and my family. They have ruled with an unfair fist. They have not found the narrow gate. They have lived in darkness for too long. Their ways are not straight and have led us astray. They choices are not for the goodness of all but for the goodness of themselves.

My family like our world will no longer tolerate this abuse and this misguided rule. Without us they are powerless over our lives. My grandmother is the end of an era. My mother has fought to stand up against the abuses of this time and has suffered greatly. This ends here and now with me. This will no longer go on.

I say it is not okay. If people do not respect me, I will not allow them in my circle. They ultimately have no power over me unless I give them power. All that they have done is not in the best interest of myself and all those I love. Their motivations are selfish. Their motivations are not from a strong foundation of what is right and good. Their actions are justified by their position to gain what they seek. They feel justified by any means to achieve their outcomes. They are not for me to judge. Each of us have to find our own salvation through our own fear and trembling in this world. Those that think they are righteous most often are not. I do not condemn them. I pray for them and send them love.

I say no more. I am the sole person that chooses the path of my life. My grandmother died to show this to me. She lived full and fruitful existence to end trapped in her own ... blindness. She sent me a message last night. She knows the truth. She is disappointed. Make things right. Those that do not will have to answer for all they have done. She is free and at peace. I am living into my fullest and best self, imperfectly by my own might.

Eleanor Strong Beyea, you were my grandmother. You pushed and proded so that others would be more and do more. You are an end of an era. You dedicated your life to live into the fullest role of your time to be imprisioned without a voice. That time has now come to an end.

YOUR VOICE will be heard. No longer is it okay. Too many know the truth. The old way is not the right way. Too many people have given their life to support others to only find out in the end, all they believed in was not true.

THINGS have changed. WE as a people no longer want to give all that we are to those that do not support our wellbeing. Our life is not to be sacrificed for the will of a few. Those few have dwelled in the darkness for too long. They have taken from too many. Eyes are opening. People are seeing. Without the support of the many, the few will fall.

Make your choice. My grandmother has spoken. I have spoken. Now it is your time to speak. No longer just accept... find the truth. Stand up and say no longer is it okay. Make your choice ~ Live! This is the only true freedom in our world. Our decision to live our life fully for ourselves and those we love.

Take back your power!

My grandmother who always said later in life, "I am doing pretty well for an old gal!" is now back to her fullest power, beauty and grace. She is whole. She lived her life fully and shared her vision with all those around her. She has returned to see beyond the veil and live into eternity. Through her those that have been touched will continue her living legacy to a full and fruitful life not fearing doing what is right and living into the fullest of glory.

Grandmother, Godspeed and blessings for all that you shared in this world. Thank you for all the inspirations from here to eternity! God Bless! Thank you ... for your messages throughout my life. My children will aspire to be more through all that you have taught me these many years, and through them our lineage will continue its quest for truth, for love and for life!

Prayers for Marvin Leto

2010-01-09T12:20:00.000-05:00

Marvin Leto was right out of another world. To know him was to love him. He was not a simple quiet loving man. He voiced his opinions and let you know exactly where you stood in his book. He did have a big heart and did know how to love you, if and when he let you see his softer side.

We shared some wonderful family memories around the farm, at the kitchen table and out riding Serena! He was always busy with a full schedule letting you know that he only had a moment to squeeze you in between all his plans.

NOW.. never try to take advantage of him or he would put you in your place. Through the big stick and the strong way... I loved him dearly. He was always a class act. I left every conversation with interesting information I didnt have before and a warm heart ~ except the time he thought I sold his wife a lame horse just to make a buck! The horse had problems but was exactly what his wife wanted to be happy in the hunt field! I just grinned and bared it for a couple visits until we were back to normal!

My heart goes out to Eileen who will be facing a major change in her life. I know she always gave it to 'ole what's his name' but she loved him dearly. I know that Marvin is in a better place and not facing the pain he has experienced in recent years. My concerns are always for those left behind and the hole we find in our lives.

My prayers are that his wife and children and grandchildren... are at peace with his passing and find the best of Marvin to continue in this world. May each of us remember the special way that Marvin graced this world in his dedication to achieving the best, making sure things were done right and being strong enough to endure any challenge to acomplish.

Marvin you will be missed. When they made you they broke the mold... there is no one like you. Be well in your journeys and may all of us here embrace the depths of our experience with you!

All my love

We all have come from infinity.
We all live within infinity,
We shall all return to infinity,
We are all manifestations of one infinity,
We are all sisters and brothers of one infinite universe,
Let us love one another,
Let us help each other,
Let us encourage each other,
And let us all together continue to realize
The endless dream of one peaceful world.

The Longest Night | Touch the Future

2009-12-21T18:01:00.000-05:00

Between the longest night
and dawn of the shortest day
the sun stops in the heavens
One cycle ends
and the world is born again

We think we are this personality
But we are not
this body, species, lifetime
But we are not

The wheel turns
One revolution ends as the other begins
Nothing remains the same
even for an instant

The only thing that is forever is change
and we are that
like music, the universe and what lies beyond

Movement gives us form
and this movement never ends
it simply changes and moves again

Solstice, Rudolf, and Three Kings
come to awaken from our dreamy drama
and for an instant
if we are lucky
we discover who we really are
again

We witness and celebrate
each Solstice Christ-Mass Eve that innocence
but nearly always forget

If we are awake
glancing in our child-lovers eyes
we may remember as they dance
to our one-song
again

There is no FATE...

except
THE ONE WE CREATE!

Life is

about

ONE THING...

What ...

We are Creating!

1 Corinthians 13

2009-12-04T00:37:00.000-05:00

1 Corinthians 13(Chpt 13, from St. Paul's 1st Corinthians Epistle)

1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

3 If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.9

For we know in part and we prophesy in part,10 but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.

11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.

12 Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Let Us All Be Thankful

2009-11-26T10:28:00.000-05:00

Be Thankful that you don't already have everything you desire,
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?

Be Thankful when you don't know something,
For it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be Thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.

Be Thankful for your limitations,
Because they give you opportunities for improvement.

Be Thankful for each new challenge,
Because it will build your strength and character.

Be Thankful for your mistakes,
They will teach you valuable lessons.

Be Thankful when you're tired and weary,
Because it means you've made a difference.

It is easy to be thankful for the good things.

A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
GRATITUDE can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a Way to be thankful for your troubles
and they can become your blessings.

Every Day Thanksgiving | His Holiness the XIVth Dalai Lama

2009-11-26T10:26:00.000-05:00

Everyday, think as you wake up:

Today I am fortunate to have woken up.

I am alive. I have a precious human life.

I am not going to waste it.

I am going to use all my energies to

develop myself to expand my heart out

to others for the benefit of all beings.

Journey to a Thankful Heart

2009-11-25T12:27:00.000-05:00

Journey to a Thankful Heart

Though gratitude is more a process than a choice,
there are numerous choices we can make that
cooperate with that sacred dynamic of thanksgiving,
and some choices that throw up roadblocks.

• First, we must dare to believe that the journey to a thankful heart is a trip worth taking.
• Secondly, we'll look at some of the barriers that sidetrack us.
• Next, we'll consider navigating the bridges to gratitude.
• Then, through God's grace, we may actually find ourselves becoming thankful people.

2009-11-24T12:09:00.001-05:00

“It isn't what you have in your pocket that makes you thankful, but what you have in your heart.”

Miracles ... Do you believe? ... Do you see the Miracles?

2009-11-24T12:05:00.000-05:00

MIRACLES

Who makes much of a miracle?
As to me, I know of nothing else but miracles...
To me, every hour of the light and dark is a miracle,
Every cubic inch of space is a miracle,
Every square yard of the surface of the earth is spread with the same;
Every spear of glass - the frames, limbs, organs of men and women and all that concerns them,
All these to me are unspeakably perfect miracles.

- Walt Whitman

Healing Through Forgiveness and Love.

2009-11-21T11:35:00.000-05:00

You deserve the best in life! Send out the thoughts that will attract the best to you.

Today's Positive Thought Healing comes through forgiveness and love.

Today's Positive Affirmation I open to my healing by loving and forgiving others and myself.

Today's Positive Visualization As I take a slow and even breath, I call forth the power of love and forgiveness to heal my life.

I feel the power of love and forgiveness warming my heart with a beautiful light.

In my mind's eye I gently recall a time when I was upset with another person or myself.

As I think about that situation now, I easily surround it with the warm light of love and forgiveness.

In my imagination I watch as the power of love and forgiveness erases the negativity and hurt from my memories.

I give thanks for this healing.

I combine these images with the feelings of joy and let them go, knowing that they will create the good things I am visualizing and thinking.

Love and Blessings~Theresa (Teri)

Prayers for True Journey of Life! Deborah Sue Pomeroy Reckmeyer

2009-11-20T07:40:00.000-05:00

“I am sending prayers for this life or the next to you and all that love you: I pray that you travel beyond the material hardship to meet yourself and know the awesome nature of the eternal bliss. This world is a playground for us to experience, love and grow. May you realize your journey and know the fruits of your labor. The darkness in anyone’s life is one rot with many hardships. Baring these times can be near impossible. These times are meant to push us towards the hole each of us carry deep within our soul. This hole is the chance to become whole and find peace. Life will be the endless journey of chasing things that never fill that space. Until we awaken to the fact we are meant to find ourselves and fulfill our personal journeys by reaching beyond the material into the unknown believe that there is more and there we will find a better way. My heart goes out to you and your loved ones as you journey between this world and all other. Whether you are in this time and space or beyond, all is well and we have all that we need. Please find what you are looking for. No one can save you but you. Jesus and others have come to be a guide until the solo journey of the soul. Reach out and find what you are looking for. Know that this time and space is here as an exercise of the soul to be more, do more and realize more than ever before. We only find this place through the peace of our depths, the emptiness between all. The journey only unfolds when we let all else go and we follow our bliss. This is the journey of life. Life is the awesome adventure we all must endure at times to find the real glory beyond this world that resonates within every spark in existence. Be well. We have all that we need. Live in Love and Remember to Laugh!” Deborah Sue Pomeroy Reckmeyer

One Flaw In Women | Unknown

2009-11-14T18:22:00.001-05:00

Women have strengths that amaze men...

They bear hardships and they carry burdens,

but they hold happiness, love and joy.

They smile when they want to scream.

They sing when they want to cry.

They cry when they are happy

and laugh when they are nervous.

They fight for what they believe in.

They stand up to injustice.

They don't take "no" for an answer

when they believe there is a better solution.

They go without so their family can have.

They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.

They love unconditionally.

They cry when their children excel

and cheer when their friends get awards.

They are happy when they hear about

a birth or a wedding.

Their hearts break when a friend dies.

They grieve at the loss of a family member,

yet they are strong when they

think there is no strength left.

They know that a hug and a kiss

can heal a broken heart.

Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.

They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you

to show how much they care about you.

The heart of a woman is what

makes the world keep turning.

They bring joy, hope and love.

They have compassion and ideas.

They give moral support to their

family and friends.

Women have vital things to say

and everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,

IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

George Carlin

We all need to live life to its fullest each day!!

Life's journey is not to
arrive at the grave safely
in a well preserved body,
but rather to skid in sideways,
totally worn out, shouting
'..holy sh*t ....what a ride!'

St. Francis of Assisi

2009-08-30T09:51:00.000-04:00

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.

Where there is hatred let me sow love;

Where there is injury, pardon;

Where there is doubt, faith;

Where there is despair, hope;

Where there is darkness, light; and

Where there is sadness, joy.

Oh divine Master, grant that I may not so much

Seek to be consoled as to console;

To be understood as to understand;

To be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive;

it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and

It is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Alana Hester We Love You!

2009-08-27T20:27:00.000-04:00

We just found out that our dear friend died in a car accident earlier today. Our heart fills with love and surrounds her family and all those who loved her dearly. We realize that she is safe and well and whole. We feel the pain of all those who loved her and miss her and will continue on this journey without her. She was young and her journey was short. She smiled and loved and was loved. She was a joy. She was so beautiful and had such a glorious light to share with those who wanted to be with her.

Our love and light goes to those who are here. Those who feel the pains of the dark cold depths of this dimension. Those who can not connect beyond this plain to realize all is well. Those feeling the devistation of the loss and pain of the unfufilled time here on earth.

May you feel the love and your heart know peace. Alana is well. All is well. Alana will be missed. We will miss her. We are filled with love that we shared the special moments here on earth with such a precious child who grew into a beautiful young lady!

May love and light shine clearly ... and love and peace settle gently... All is well...

NOTE: "I can only love you and be your friend" | Billy

2009-07-21T11:12:00.001-04:00

A beautiful letter I just received from a dear friend that sums up exactly how I feel and what I believe...

"I can't give solutions

to all of life's problems, doubts,
or fears. But I can listen to you, and together we will
search for answers.

I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain,
nor the future with its untold stories.
But I can be there now when you need me to care.

I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.

Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,
and help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship,
from your values, from me.
I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.

I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,
But I can give you the room to change, room to grow,
room to be yourself.

I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces
and put them back in place.

I can't tell you who you are.
I can only love you and be your friend."

Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses in it.

From a distance, each looks like every other horse. But if you stop your car,
or are walking by, you will notice something quite amazing.

Looking into the eyes of one horse will disclose that he is blind. His owner has chosen not to have him put down, but has made a good home for him.

This alone is amazing.

If nearby and listening, you will hear the sound of a bell. Looking around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes from the smaller horse in the field. Attached to her halter is a small bell. It lets her blind friend know where she is, so he can follow her.

As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see how she is always checking on him, and that he will listen for her bell and then slowly walk to where she is, trusting that she will not lead him astray. When she returns to the shelter of the barn each evening, she stops occasionally and looks back, making sure her friend isn't too far behind to hear the bell.

Like the owner of these two horses, God does not throw us away just because we are not perfect or because we have problems or challenges.
He watches over us and even brings others into our lives to help us when we are in need.

Sometimes we are the blind horse being guided by the little ringing bell of those who God places in our lives. Other times we are the guide horse, helping others see.

Good friends are like this........ ..You don't always see them, but you know they are always there. Please listen for my bell and I'll listen for yours....

Walking Through Fire | DSPR

2009-07-12T07:58:00.000-04:00

My prayers and blessings go to those who hear the call and see the time at hand. The experiences we are facing are our test. Can we stand the fire and move towards the journey we are here to live. The fire is here to define where we are and how well we can deal with all that is thrown at us. Can we keep our soul, our love and our right actions. Can we still be who we truly are even when the world is screaming for us to turn to hate, pain and anger. Stay strong in who you are, why you are here and what you are called to do. Look at everything... if it is not you turn away and do not accept it. If it is you embrace it... keep or change it to reflect more of who you are. Be strong, yet flexable. Be resolved, yet know your connectedness to all and move with the universe and the calls of God. Be connected, yet free flowing in your own unique specialness. Be balanced and aligned within your being that extends into this world, yet keep flowing with the whispers the call the heartbeat of all of existence.

God... please in your own quiet way knock... and all of us open ourselves to listen for the true highest best heartbeat... live into the whisper we hear and let all the NOISE of the world wash away... the noise was only to make us wake up and notice... the rest of the journey is the solo journey to live more fully within ourselves and our lives with love...

If you do not feel that warm rush of full connectedness and see how much we need all that surrounds us... we have lost ourselves... it is time to come home...

God guide us and we promise to keep rededicating ourselves to finding that guidance...

My prayers are for all... and for those that can ... move into your own calling...

Love... Light and so much more ...

Live in Love and Remember to Laugh!

2009-05-29T08:19:00.000-04:00

I come before you in a humble manner
and offer you this sacred pipe.
With tears in my eyes
and an ancient song from my heart
I pray.

To the four powers of Creation,
to the Grandfather Sun,
to the Grandmother Moon,
to the Mother Earth,
and to my ancestors.

I pray for my relations in Nature,
all those who walk, crawl, fly, and swim,
seen and unseen,
to the good spirits that exist in every part of Creation.

I ask that you bless our elders and children,
families and friends,
and the brothers and sisters who are in prison.
I pray for the ones who are sick on drugs and alcohol
and for those who are now homeless and forlorn.
I also pray for peace among the four races of humankind.

May there be good health and healing for this Earth,
may there be Beauty above me,
may there be Beauty below me,
may there be Beauty in me,
may there be Beauty all around me.
I ask that this world be filled
with Peace, Love and Beauty.

Prayers for Daniel Hauser and his loved ones | DSPR

2009-05-17T11:33:00.000-04:00

My heart stretches out beyond the divide to shine light into the depths of this boys soul and all that surrounds him.

Diagnosed with Lymphoma and after one treatment of Chemotherapy Daniel decided he did not want to go this toxic route. Upon the decision to use alternative treatments the family was taken to court. The judge ruled friday that if he does not receive the Chemotherapy child protective services will take the child and force his so called treatment and the parents will be jailed. They live in Minnesota.

Through the trials of this experience my prayers are that they find the strength, love and resources to make the decisions about their life and their wellbeing which were given to us as citizens of this great nation. Just because we do not agree with the system of our culture or our government does not mean that we are not caring for and being responsible for that which is ours to care for.

My love and light shines on their situation so that the truth of this will be revealed to those open to seeing and nudge them forward to step out in their faith to do what they are called to do.

May each of us embrace the voice that guides us to stand on our eternal beliefs and act in accordance with our soul in our higher purposes.

My heart stretches through the divide to support, love and shine through the darkenss for all to see...

Be strong and well... and stand up for who you are and why you are here!

Peace and love be with you now and forever!

Ere You Lie Down to Sleep | Max Ehrmann (1872-1945)

2009-05-14T13:14:00.000-04:00

Ere you lie down to sleep in the night, sit still awhile, and nurse again to life your gentler self.

Forget the restless, noisy spirit of the day, and encourage to speech the soft voices within you that timidly whisper of the peace of the quiet night; and occasionally look out at the quiet stars.

The night will soothe you like a tender mother, folding you against her soft bosom, and hiding you from the harm of the world.

Though denied and rejected by men in the light of day, the night will not reject you and in the still of her soft shadows you are free.

After the day's struggle there is no freedom like unfettered thoughts, no sound like the music of silence.

And though behind you lies a road of dust and heat and discouragement, and before you the challenge and uncertainty of untried paths, in this brief hour you are master of all highways, and the universe nestles in your soul.

Prayers Embracing Who I Really AM | DSPR

2009-05-13T08:50:00.000-04:00

I have come into this world knowing that there is more yet no matter how hard I try... I can not find the essence of who I really am. I reach has hard as I can and never remove all the veils to hold all that is me. Most put me in a box one way or another where I am screaming... no I am not that little sliver of what you believe to be true... its a partial and limited understanding.

THAT is the TRUTH of our time and space. We only have a sliver of all that exists. Each of us grasp these illusionary truths and never embrace the fact that they truly are not real and are not TRUTH. We want everyone to see us and be what we see as right... but ultimately anyone trying to walk in our shoes know they do not fit...

I made some strong decisions that last couple of weeks. I am here as a bridge. When I see someone in need... I will fill them with love to allow them to find their own center peace. By learning how to find peace and what it feels like they are developing new ways - paths to find themselves easier and easier. We will never FORCE another into themselves or doing right. THEY need to find it from their center - core and bring their world from spinning out of control into the calm of their soul.

TWO I am letting go completely of WAITING on others or something to BE who I am and DO what I am here to do... That is a false contruct designed to keep us locked down and in fear. I do not need anything to be ready to be ME. I do not have to wait. I need to DREAM. Here my SONG. Sing my SONG. Write my STORY. That is my unique self and my unique position in this world. No one else can be or do that.

I encourage all of you right now to be and do the same. I empower you to reach for your full self. Do not buy into the limitations of our current cultures and world. Find your own center. Do your own research. Realize that you are an eternal light being with tons of light energy. Bring your self, your life and all that is you into alignment and create the life you chose to come into this dimension to LIVE, EXPERIENCE and EXPRESS.

We can do all this in love with compassion and a knowing that all that is actually is so much more... and our limited nather here prevents us from the whole picture. BUT we do have the power to receive all that we need in our own experience and our own expression to have the tools, the talents and the opportunities to fulfill our purpose and bring this world into a new age.

Reach for the golden ring... drink the elixer of life, be and do all that you are here in this plane. Life is your choice. WHAT DO YOU CHOOSE... The time is NOW... BE and DO all that you came here to BE AND DO NOW! One step at a time... in love and with compassion. Learn to use that biosuit and its navigational system. Let all the illusionary constraints fade away... allow the smoke to clear the air... know that the reflection is limited and we can be so much MORE....

I stand fully present in my full body, in my divine power, in co creation with the master frequency of all creation, as I bring forward all that has meaning and purpose in my life.

All that I need flows freely to me every step of the way.

Love, peace, joy, light, and true abundance surrounds me and is within me.

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations, Thee said I, ah, Lord God: Behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. But the Lord said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to allthat I shall send thee and whatsoever I camman thee shough shalt speak. Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. Then the Lord put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

Light of the World | Matthew 5: 14-16

2009-04-20T11:49:00.000-04:00

You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl (bush). Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds andpraise your Father in heaven.

1 Corinthians 12:12-26

2009-04-20T11:41:00.000-04:00

For as the body is one, and hath many memebers, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. for the body is not one memeber, but many. If the foot shall say, Because I amnot the hand, I am not the body; is it therefore not of the body? If the whole body were an eyes, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. And if they were allone member, where were the body? But now are they many members, yet but one body. And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. Nay, muchmore those members of the body which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upone these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comiliness. For our comely part have no need; but Goth hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to the part which lacked: That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. And whether one memeber suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.

To take back my power through healthy boundaries and reverence!

Friendship - a Reason, a Season & a Lifetime | unknown

2009-04-20T10:17:00.000-04:00

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person.

When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.

Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.

It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

GUARDIAN ANGEL: Angels exist, only sometimes they haven't got wings and we call them friends; you are one of them.

Dealing with Loss of Loved Ones | DSPR

2009-04-19T12:56:00.000-04:00

Please send me prayers...

my friend died (leaving young children)... and they called last night that the estate sale is over and wanted to know if i wanted to come over and pick out a few things before they were donated...

so many mixed emotions...

I had a dream a year ago that we (my friend and I) were on a curving road in a storm... that we would go off a cliff and I was hanging onto her hand... she slipped away into nothingness... yet I knew she was fine...

the pains of my loss and knowing the loss she experienced here on earth... and the loss of her children was painful and my children... :)

That was at least a year before she was even diagnosed with her cancer returning full force after 25 years in remission (ugly divorce and child custody... drove her over the edge!)...

Dealing with loss here on earth is hard sometimes... we just want to hold those dear to us and make everything all better!

My Prayer to the Memories of a Friend & The Light inside All of Us! | DSPR

2009-04-19T12:31:00.000-04:00

Wanted to touch base. I watched the movie the other night and thought of you and your brothers and your mother.

I don't want to bring up hard or sensitive subjects.... but I wanted to share...

The movie is a beautiful movie. It shows the struggle that I see in todays world between the old dynamics of the common era of power and control and this new time of change: era of revealing and time of choice.

The movie weaved the current ideals of money, power, title and property into a story of complicated relationships and priorities/dedications in life.The old aboriginal beliefs were in direct conflict with the European lifestyle.

I believe that the upsets in our culture today are based on this basic struggle. Our religions and parents teach us to love our neighbor and give grace to all of life, yet our culture holds up that we only think about getting ahead and what is good for us.

This conflict is reflected throughout our society in every profession. Our food, our schools, our health care, our politics, our government, etc. THUS our world is in the middle of a storm and in crisis.I believe this is a time to set what is important to each of us individually and decide on a path in life. The choice we make at our soul level will reflect throughout our life.The movie aboriginal 'magic' man said that all in this world has a song. We have a dream, a song and a story.

Without any part we loose who we are. We can not be someone else's dream or someone else's song or someone else's story.

I believe it was Joseph Campbell that said that the greatest tragedy is to die without singing your song.

I was watching the movie and my eyes filled with tears for your mother. I feel that she did die without singing her song. So much stuff in this life got in her way that prevented her from connecting to her dream and singing her song and thus having her story.

That is the tragedy of your mothers untimely death.

What those thoughts mean to me is that my prayer, desire and hope is that you do not get lost in this world. That you and your brothers find your dream (the real one of your soul). That you discover how beautiful YOUR voice is and sign your song to the fullest glory no matter what anyone of this world tells you that you should sing... you sing from your soul. That all of you realize that this is your story. No one else's. You need to write the story that you want to live and let no other person ever tell you, make you or cause you pain/fear to live any other story.

I love each of you. I know that your mother loved all of you so very much. She wanted the best for each of you. She wanted to be here to protect, to help you, to love you and to be there for you. Each of you were part of her song. May her song resonate in your soul and allow your own song reach its greatest most brilliant level.As always we are here and we love you.

Be well. Be happy.

"live in love, and remember to laugh!"

Prayer Guide for Someone Facing Surgery | A Friend

Dear God:

Let your hand of loving calm be upon me, bringing rest and peace into my mind and body. Bring to my remembrance the skills of my physcian and his attendants, who have been prepared through the years by the gift of your Spirit.

Help me to recall the history of your grace in my life -- all the trials and dangers, both seen and unseen, from which you have been my Rescuer through the years.

Enable me to know you now. for you have been trustworthy in all your doings. Take away all anxiety from me and those who love me, and let us enter this experience with a sense of adventure, to learn from it how to be more obedient servants.

Through Him who trusted You in everything, even Jesus Christ my Lord.

Prayer of Peace | unknown

2009-04-15T11:18:00.000-04:00

May today be all you need it to be.

May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit rest in your thoughts, rule in your dreams tonight, and conquer all your fears.

May God manifest himself today in ways you have never experienced!

May your joys be fulfilled, your dreams be closer, and your prayers be answered..

I pray that faith enters a new height for you;

I pray that your territory is enlarged, more work and less unemployment.

I pray for peace, healing, health, happiness, prosperity, joy, true and undying love for God.

God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.

Attitude | Charles Swindoll

2009-04-10T16:17:00.000-04:00

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company… a church… a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We can not change our past… we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is plan on the one think we have, and that is our attitude… I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you… We are in charge of our Attitudes.

PRAYER: A Challenge for Science | Rupert Sheldrake

2009-04-09T17:02:00.000-04:00

Since ancient times, a strong and pervasive belief in the efficacy of prayer–for the living and the dead–reinforces the notion that consciousness is not limited to the physical body. Not only do traditions throughout the world share a belief that prayers may in some way help (or invoke help from) deceased ancestors, many cultures throughout history have believed that prayer can bring about changes in the physical circumstances of the living.

If prayer affects things in the physical world, its effects should be measurable, and science should be able to investigate it. There is a very scattered literature on this, but when you bring it all together as Larry Dossey has done in his recent book, Healing Words (HarperSanFrancisco, 1993), you see there is quite a large number of interesting experiments with challenging results. Out of 131 controlled experiments on prayer-based healing, more than half showed statistically significant benefits. One of the best known is a double blind study of 393 patients in the coronary unit at San Francisco General Hospital. In this experiment, 192 patients, chosen at random, were prayed for by home prayer groups, the others were not. The prayed-for patients recovered better than the controls, and fewer died.

In order to make sense of these data on the efficacy of prayer, science will have to change its underlying assumptions about the nature of causality. Currently, the standard view is still purely mechanistic–notwithstanding all the recent talk about chaos and complexity theory. When applied to the life sciences, chaos and complexity theory–even with the help of highly sophisticated computer modeling–still explain the world in terms of mechanical causes involving known physical and chemical processes.

The data from empirical studies of prayer, as well as from the large literature reporting psi research in telepathy, clairvoyance and psychokinesis, seriously challenge the mechanistic view. Some other causal agent besides the mechanics of electrochemical interactions is required to make sense of the observed phenomena.

Holistic thinkers generally divide into two main categories. The majority want to have holism on the cheap. They want a holism which doesn’t conflict with science as we know it. Instead of exploring the possibility of new causal factors, they prefer to explain holism in terms of complexity and self-organization of conventional mechanical forces, modeled with sophisticated mathematics and the latest computer techniques. Nothing essentially different from physical and chemical interactions is considered to account for the properties of living systems.

Footprints in the Sand | Mary Stevenson

2009-04-09T02:09:00.000-04:00

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints,
other times there were one set of footprints.

This bothered me because I noticed
that during the low periods of my life,
when I was suffering from
anguish, sorrow or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints.

So I said to the Lord,
"You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you,
you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during
the most trying periods of my life
there have only been one
set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most,
you have not been there for me?"

The Lord replied,
"The times when you have
seen only one set of footprints in the sand,
is when I carried you."

To Everything there is a Season | Ecclesiastes (the preacher) 3: 1-13

2009-04-06T21:26:00.000-04:00

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time t break down and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to get, and a time to loose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

What profit hath he that worketh in the wherein he laboureth:

I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.He hath made everything beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to good in his life.

And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.

BUILD ON A SOLID FOUNDATION | Matthew 7:24-27

2009-04-06T21:25:00.000-04:00

Therefore whosoever heareth these saying of mine and doeth them, I will like him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock.

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon the house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

WHOLE DUTY | Ecclesiastes 12:13

2009-04-06T21:23:00.000-04:00

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heave above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;

Thou halt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless of at taketh his name in vain.

Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.

Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou salt not do any work thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.

Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the

Lord thy God giveth thee.

Thou salt not kill.

Thou shalt not commit adultery.

Thou shalt not steal.

Thou shalt not bear fase witness against thy neighbour.

Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, though shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.

And all the people saw the thunderings and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off.

THE GOOD WAY | Jeremiah 6:16

2009-04-06T21:18:00.000-04:00

PRAYERS FOR ASKING | Matthew 6:7-13

2009-04-06T21:17:00.000-04:00

But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth that things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

After this manner therefore pray ye:

Our Father which art in heaven. Hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

And lead us not into temptations, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

WHOLE ARMOUR OF GOD | Ephesians 6:11-20

2009-04-06T21:11:00.000-04:00

Finally brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

Put on the whole armour of God, that he may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Stand therefore, having your loins girt about the truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

Above all, taking the shield of faith, where with ye shall be able to quench allt he fiery darts of the wicked.

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the world of God:

Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel.

For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE | Luke 11:33

2009-04-06T21:06:00.000-04:00

No man, when he hath lighted a candle putteth in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.

The light of the body is the eye; therefore when thine eye is singe, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.

Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.

If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no park dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.

ASK AND IT IS GIVEN | Matthew 7:7-12

2009-04-06T21:03:00.000-04:00

Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find,
knock and the door will be opened to you.
For everyone who asks will receive,
and anyone who seeks will find,
and the door will be opened to him who knocks.
Would any of you who are fathers give
your son a stone when he asks for bread?
Or would you give him a snake
when he asks for a fish?
As bad as you are, you know how
to give good things to your children.
How much more, then, will your
father in heaven give good things
to those who ask him!
Do for others what you want them to do for you:
this is the meaning of the Law of Moses
and the teachings of the prophets.

BE READY | Revelation 16 & 22

2009-04-06T21:01:00.000-04:00

Revelation 16:15

Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

Revelation 22:12-16

And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Blessed are they that do his commandments that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

Prayers in Passing | DSPR

2009-04-05T18:00:00.001-04:00

When paths cross and I see the pain....

I want to reach out mend the ails and quiet the soul...

My heart stretches out and embraces the light and aches to be near...

What can we do when those we see suffer.

What can we do when we know that nothing we do or say will change the pain.

What can we do when we want to do more... yet... there is none.

I close my eyes and pray. Pray for comfort that embraces the lost, the lonely and the hurting. I pray that those that need more are found and brought close.

There is a season for all... but no one wants to feel alone no matter the season. May each of us find those we need when we need them, and may each of us be the one who reaches out in the dark to those who are suffering...

Thank you for all the love in this world. May all find their way back to love ... once again.

The Blessing of Women

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN...

IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH!

This is to remind you how amazing all of you are and what a blessing you are to the world!

The Meaning of Kamala

2009-03-31T13:57:00.000-04:00

KAMALA is 'Being of the Lotus' ~ 'Lotus born' (Water Lily sidenote: my middle name is Sue meaning lily!)

'Perfection, Purity and Divine Birth'

There are so many influencing factors that affect the interconnections of what we call 'life.' Which comes first, 'our spirit' or all the 'attributes' of our life? This is the age old quesiton of the chicken and the egg, 'which comes first' and 'what is the source.' With the belief that our light shines through each of us into our world from all of life, I believe that both are contributing factors and neither can be separated.

A study of a name or naming a child is very important and gives messages into our journey in this existence. Even if is contemplated, researched, determined and known... each time we revisit our understanding of the message, there are new revelations and new insight that brings meaning and clarity to our experience.

Many define their life by their limitations and believe that we can not reach beyond those limitations. I believe the opposite. That our greatest fears or weaknesses are actually our challenges to reach beyond. Once achieved they become our greatest gifts and strengths. Facing our fears and realizing the truth beyond our illusion that binds us only makes us stronger.

Do your own research and reveal what speaks to you and your own journey!

The Spiritual Meaning of the Lotus
by Rev. Sue Annabrooke Jones

The lotus flower, a type of water lily, is held sacred among many of the world's religions and cultures. With its roots in the mud, the lotus rises through the murky water to blossom clean and bright, symbolizing to the Buddhist purity, resurrection and the enlightened being who emerges undefiled from the chaos and illusion of the world. The eight-petalled lotus that is used in Buddhist mandalas symbolizes cosmic harmony, and the thousand-petalled lotus represents spiritual illumination. In the iconography of the Greek and Roman Christian Churches, the Archangel Gabriel is portrayed holding a spray of water lilies in every picture of the Annunciation when he appears to the mother of Jesus. The Hindus of India noted that the ungerminated seeds of the lotus contain perfectly formed leaves, a blueprint for the future plant. Thus to the Hindu, the lotus represents divine ideation passing from abstract into concrete form. The lotus is featured prominently in Egyptian art and architecture, especially in connection with Egypt's temples. In Egyptian mythology, the lotus was associated with the sun, because it blooms by day and closes by night. The lotus also symbolized rebirth, since one Egyptian creation myth tells of the newborn sun god rising out of a floating lotus. The blue lotus was sacred to the ancient Egyptians, who valued it not only for its rich perfume but also for its narcotic ability to produce heightened awareness and tranquillity. To Native Americans, who found all parts of the American lotus edible, the flower symbolized the sun's power to transform energy into food. The seeds were once an especially important part of the Native American diet; in fact, the genus name Nelumbo means "sacred bean." The lotus is also highly esteemed by Taoists. Among the Eight Immortals of Taoism is Ho Hsien Ku, her symbol the open lotus blossom, signifying openness and wisdom. A feature of the lotus plant that has found its way into Chinese poetry is its stalk, which is easy to bend but difficult to break because of its many strong fibres. Poets liken this quality to the bonds between lovers or family members. The lotus flower is a favorite of Taoist artists, who paint it to remind us of the miracle of beauty, light and life, and to communicate an understanding of the Tao and of our place in the world.

Theosophy Dictionary

The lotus, a flower which has been held sacred from remotest antiquity by the Aryan Hindus, as well as revered in other lands such as Egypt.

Mystically, it was looked upon as an emblem of productive nature growing between the spiritual sunlight above and the water or the astral light below; or in a more general sense between spirit and matter. It has also other meanings, such as in India, of the prolific earth, and even of Mount Meru.

The lotus is "a very ancient and favourite simile for the Kosmos itself, and also for man. The popular reasons given are, firstly, . . . that the Lotus-seed contains within itself a perfect miniature of the future plant, which typifies the fact that the spiritual prototypes of all things exist in the immaterial world before those things become materialised on Earth. Secondly, the fact that the Lotus plant grows up through the water, having its root in the Ilus, or mud, and spreading its flower in the air above.

The Lotus thus typifies the life of man and also that of the Kosmos; . . . The root of the Lotus sunk in the mud represents material life, the stalk passing up through the water typifies existence in the astral world, and the flower floating on the water and opening to the sky is emblematical of spiritual being" (SD 1:57-8).

Lotus (from Greek lotos)

A lily belonging to the genus Nymphaea, an ancient and universal symbol; in India spoken of innumerable times under its Sanskrit name padma.

"It is the flower sacred to nature and her Gods, and represents the abstract and the Concrete Universes, standing as the emblem of the productive powers of both spiritual and physical nature. It was held sacred from the remotest antiquity by the Aryan Hindus, the Egyptians, and the Buddhists after them; revered in China and Japan, and adopted as a Christian emblem by the Greek and Latin Churches, who made of it a messenger as the Christians do now, who replace it with the water lily. It had, and still has, its mystic meaning which is identical with every nation on the earth" (SD 1:379).

In relation to men, the lotus is the symbol of the self-producing soul which, during manifestation immersed in material life as the lotus seed is embedded in the mud of lake or pond, is wakened by the warm rays of the spiritual sun, and grows upward through the world of illusion (symbolized by water ) to blossom in the free air and sunlight of truth.

Cosmically the lotus symbolizes the emanation of the objective from the subjective, the manifested effect or production of the eternal plan on which the invisible worlds are built by the formative logoi. This lies buried, until the time for its svabhava or production comes, in the bosom of eternal ideation -- as the lotus plant of visible nature exists in miniature in the seed.

The Quest for the New Human Expression

2009-03-31T13:40:00.000-04:00

Human Expression | Waking Life (excerpts)

BUT HOW? We have been asleep and have forgotten. It is time we remember… The shift is happening. We are making our choices. There is no one to fear but our selves. Reach inside and find the truth. Build your shield to protect you and stand strong. That is our right. We can no longer deny what is rightfully ours. We can no longer site idly by and watch in terror. We do not need guns and weapons. We need to spiritually and energetically arm our selves. We need to reconnect our beings with our souls and our higher selves. We need to dive into the pool of eternal consciousness that rings through the multiverse. This is the time to align our beings, rediscover our power and set our spirit free within in our world.

Free Will and Physics | Waking Life (excerpt)

This new era is the reflection of the struggle between the old and the new. The critical point of change has past. The critical mass that shifts the scales has occurred. The many are regaining their sight, their powers, their call to arms and their ability to create in this world.

The Quest is to be Liberated from the Negative | Waking Life (excerpt)

Let go of the old way of hate, fear, blame and being engulfed by overwhelming emotions. Dig deep into our center and find the power of being true. Use our strength in faith and inspiration. Close our eyes and know where to go and how to be. Use our intuition and believe once again in the power of the way and the force. It is with us. We have each other to connect to and find all that we need. United we are a force to be reckoned with and quite unstoppable.

Evolution of Consciousness | Waking Life (excerpt)

Even if you don’t see the path and know the ‘whats’ and ‘whys’… the rabbit hole is there and we are walking into the mirror. Hold on… while we let go. Believe… but don’t set a closed mind. Jump in with both feet… we won’t sink. We are there and I feel the power resonating through the multiverse into my very being. The darkness is all consuming so close our eyes… and let our minds eye guide us. Call forth our higher self to show us the way.

Telescopic Evolution | Waking Life (excerpt)

The first step is the hardest and each beyond that will get easier. Let go of the strong feelings that tie us to the past and bind our soul into nothingness. Reach for the moment of peace that refreshes the soul and renews our spirit. Say thank you and know the grateful feeling of being truly alive. Love each other and believe again. Find your faith and cling to life with love. Open your spirit and live!

Are You a Dreamer? | Waking Life (excerpt)

The journey begins… ‘live, love and laugh!’

Now, and Now, and Now | Mindwalk

2009-03-31T13:38:00.000-04:00

Now the current picture is different for everyone. The story is a hard one to share. Each of us sees something so very unique and unrelated due to the reflective nature of the multiverse. We are changing and our world is changing. The energies confuse our over developed intellectual minds and our spirits are fighting to be free. We look for understanding, validation and for others to support our experience. We feel the need to blame, judge and point the finger in all directions to the out of control nature of the current affairs.

Actually in truth, this is the time for us to stop. We need to stand firm and face our demons. We are not ridding the world of the evil elements that have taken everything from us, but truly we are exercising the demons from within and having to face the truth of the situation that exists within our being. We are removing the smoke and looking into the mirror. The journey actually goes deeper then that … we need to reach into our selves and dive into the mirror and down the rabbit hole.

This step seems so scary and something we fear doing, but actually we will find that in the mirror we find our selves and we go home. The comfort of life and all that is beyond awe inspiring exists just on the other side. All we have to do is take the step and go inside. We come out anew. This is the true meaning of being ‘born again’ and coming into ‘your own’. We are here and we are the ones we have been waiting for.

We are not the victims that have been chained from our power by the evil enemy. We hold our own key. We do not need to seek outside ourselves to find the answers we seek. The power is ours. We can set our selves free. We our selves are keeping our selves chained and bound to something we are not. The time is now to rise up and realize how powerful we are and what the true meaning of being free, enlightened and feeling real joy in life means. We need to reach beyond our fear and let is wash away from our beings. We need to embrace all the emotions that drive us from experiencing our selves. The time is now and we are here.

The Turning Point | Mindwalk

2009-03-31T13:37:00.000-04:00

Opening our eyes and seeing more then we have ever seen is a very overwhelming place to be. The ‘emotions’ that stir up in our soul and confront our understanding of the world is thrown into our face and sends quakes down our very being. Looking deep into our self and seeing all that has been hidden and all the shadows we have locked away is not a task willingly sought or easily mastered. Whether we like it or not, the time is the time to be here now and see what has been silenced for so many years.

Now is the time to wake up and take responsibility for the web of life. The complication is overwhelming and incomprehensible. BUT if we would open our mind and reconnect our soul we can awaken to our false beliefs of the past. The fragmented viewpoint can not solve our real problems we face today. When we realized that we have been asleep in an ever evolving multiverse and that our operating ideals do not line up with the true nature of the multiverse we have already started to change. We can not snap our fingers have a new story, a new world and a new way of operating. We can begin with our sleepy eyes to see more clearly and more deeply into the interrelatedness and begin to take steps grasping at a new vision of each action we take affects so much more then what we understand. Our own newly rediscovered personal power of responsibility in itself will shake the ripples of the shift into greater possibilities. Awareness that we can do and be more and that alone will change our world, sets a new course.
