6. Day 15:  Why I Love Mondays……

Would you believe that my revelation about me bringing the momentous, was, well, um…….momentous?!  I know I could use another word (amazing, perspective shifting, huge) but I might as well stick with what I know.  Here is the thing that is opening me up, I still tend toward the celebratory, the over the top and the colorful but as I spend more and more time with Holy Spirit I am beginning to sense the true Vastness of our being love.  And that really is momentous on an infinite scale.  I can see that rather than letting the moment be comfortable as it is in the vastness of love,...

6. Day 14: I Am Momentous

Recently one of my daughters received some unexpected news.  Not earth shattering, but life rearranging, tedious and upending nevertheless.  I was ready at my post with more positive spin and cheer than with true being-in-the-moment-with-them.  Of course I knew I had spoken the words that would least help when the response was a drooping, tight-lipped silence.  Darn it.  I really do want to be helpful, kind and present but somehow my response was received as brassy and too much.  Later I was chided with these words:  “Why do you always have to be so momentous!?!!  Can’t I just be...

6. Day 13:  The Deep Upwelling

Yesterday I shared with you a practice by which you can feel the Holy Spirit within yourself.  I thought I might share my own experience today so you know whatever you feel is ok.  The first thing I felt this morning as I took time to feel into the Holy Spirit was my old friend resistance.  Ugh.  This is what resistance looks like for me:  thoughts, thoughts and more thoughts.  Some of the thoughts try to masquerade as useful or helpful like “What does it MEAN to feel the Holy Spirit?”,  “You can’t feel anything, let alone the Holy One!”, “What if I feel...

6. Day 12:  Feel The Holy Spirit

Many times a day I am pausing to feel the Holy Spirit within me as a way of extending love to my tiredness.  I am reminded to do this even by my friend Bartholomew: “Love is not just a thought; love is a physical sensation.  It is a motion within the physical body that produces a wondrous warmth and sense of well-being, in the face of anything that might be happening.”——–Planetary Brother, by Bartholomew p. 122 This definition of unconditional love below sounds exactly like what I am hoping to uncover as my daily experience as  my epic fears are melted by the...

6. Day 11: The [unintended] Gift of Terrorism

6. Day 11:  The [unintended] Gift of Terrorism

The gift of terrorism is that the horror must be faced.  In its immediate aftermath there is a tear in the fabric of society and its dogmas, rules and perspective that is rent clean open.  Through that rent a great gust of honesty bellows through and we all come face to face with what IS whether we like it or not.  When the attacks on September 11, 2001 occurred a great honesty was unleashed across the globe.  Those who committed the attacks were angry, hurt and desperate–now we all knew this for certain, even if we knew not what to do about it. Through that wretched honesty came our...
