All fear is past and only Love is here.

May Love extend through me.

“Father, let not Your holy world escape my sight today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of gratitude the world is singing underneath the sounds of fear. There is a real world which the present holds safe from all past mistakes. And I would see only this world before my eyes today.” [CE W-293.2]

This morning, in my morning emails from spiritual folk, I read the same message from 2 or 3 sources. There seemed to be a theme today that we humans must move past seeing ourselves as innately flawed and instead innately magnificent. One source told of an indigenous legend in which we once held understanding of our blessed nature so that now we are just looking for ourselves; it said that this is why we feel loneliness.

Have cultural messages, such as being born with sin, caused me to live my life small, isolating myself from all my relatives?

To say I am a holy Child of God feels like a balm in my heart. A balm tends to be put over a wound. This is what I think I am feeling – a hurtful belief resides within me still.

(I visited this hurt part of me (as I learned to do from reading about IFS) and received a beautiful gift from HS. Read about it here.)

I found within me a part who is the part of my mind that thinks I am less than others. It is a cause of fear in my life. I have learned that a mistaken belief in my psyche can be questioned. With curiosity and compassion, I am able to enter the shadows of my mind. Love and understanding are my intention. With tenderness, I find my parts willing to release their fears.

And don’t think that I travel to these dark recesses of my mind alone. HS is my guide who I question about how to proceed; I listen and notice the images that form which provide my guidance. It is a very sacred space. The past is released therefore Love and light can flow in.

“All the world shines in refection of its holy light, and I perceive a world forgiven at last.”

The lesson tells us that present right here, right now, is always the real world. Its light and sound are always present if we pause to observe through hearts that have been opened by forgiveness.

‘How can I look at this differently?’ is the question we can bring to minds, which shifts our thought process from judgement to acceptance.

I change. Or re-align back to my loving presence within. My world becomes OK – as in ‘all is well’. I am filled with gratitude and so see beauty in the world.

“All fear is past, because its source is gone … Love remains the only present state.”

“In the present love is obvious, and its effects apparent.”

Love is here.

I feel love so strongly since Mom’s passing. Lord, help me to have it stay. There is a vulnerability and openness to me. I see and sense others more strongly right now. Is this how compassion feels?

My heart is open, but I don’t think it was broken to be this way. I opened my heart to give, and Love was received. (I shared my poem and visitation.) I let go of past fears of being open and exposing my heart. I shared what was important to me and loved flowed out, around the room into others, and right back into my heart.

Only love was there, then, and flows still here and NOW.

“Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of gratitude the world is singing underneath the sound of fear.”

Thank you, Lord for the reminder that there are many like myself who practice gratitude. There are those in continual prayer, down on their knees in devotion, as well as in the world practicing loving-kindness. It is a good world striving for more … seeking.

I join today with others in bringing your Holy world to light – to our awareness.
