Sunday Morning Thoughts

Dark Night of the Soul/Spirit

“There is no going forward without a death of some kind: a kind death of who we thought we were and were supposed to be; a death of a map of the world we thought worthy of our trust and investment; a death of expectations that by choosing rightly we could avoid suffering, experience the love and approval of those around us, and achieve a sense of peace, satisfaction arrival home. But life has other plans it seems; indeed, our own souls have other plans.” -James Hollis

A Meditation for Lent

With the beginning of Lent, I thought a meditation would be a nice way to start the season.  This comes from The Way of Mastery.  This is told by Jesus through a voice who is living on the planet now.  This message  is meant to help us assimilate the historical event of Jesus’s death as a symbol of our own lives.

Last Judgment

Growing up Catholic, I was terrified of my judgment after death. Because of that fear I became stagnant. What if I leave the Catholic Church? What would happen if I left the church? Worse yet, what if I started observing a religion that was not Christian? I was starting to think for myself but was terrified of the wrong decision. I did believe that Jesus was my teacher, my guide, my love, and my friend, but now I did not see him as the only Son. Talk about terror. What if I was wrong?

The First Beatitude

Live from Spirit; that is what we are part of, everyone and everything.  Spirit is in you and me, in the rock and tree. EVERYTHING. Spirit is the same in all. And Spirit is free. IT IS FREE. You don’t buy Spirit or earn Spirit; it is embedded in everything. Spirit is expansive and has no boundaries. You do not need permission from structure or hierarchies to obtain it. Structure was not created by God but by us.
