Connection

The spiritual journey involves going beyond hope and fear, stepping into unknown territory, continually moving forward. The most important aspect of being on the spiritual path may be just to keep moving. ~ Pema Chodron

What does it mean to nurture your genius?
Better yet, do you believe you are a genius?
One definition of genius from the Merriam-Webster dictionary is: extraordinary intellectual power especially as manifested in creative activity.
So, let me ask again, are you a genius?

Faith is not restricted to the confines of a church, the auspices of a specific denomination, nor the perception of what is ‘holy’. Life itself is sacred; therefore, something that invites faith in.

You, too, can be carved anew by the details of your devotion. —Mary Oliver

Perseverance vs. resilience.
Same or different?
Perseverance: persistence in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success (Oxford Dictionary)
Resilience: able to withstand or recover quickly from difficult conditions (Oxford Dictionary)

Peace
Such an elusive ideal.
We pray for peace.
Crave inner peace.
Long for world peace.

There is something about these lyrics that resonates deep within. In the moment I heard this song, I took it in from the perspective of Spirit offering this invitation.

Prayer: A conversation opening to intimacy.

Waiting in love. Returning to love. Trusting love.

How often do you get in your own way?

I was originally going to ask if you ever get in your own way. Then I remembered that we ALL get in our own way. It’s a matter of recognizing it and then getting OUT of our own way.

This is what it is to be loved and to know that the promise was when everything fell we’d be held. -Christa Wells
