Let not my world obscure the sight of Christ.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

10-31-2024<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Great Love, thank You for always being with me and for nudging me along. I drop away from my true Self, but You always find a way to bring my awareness back to center. In contemplation I soar. My seeing of this world needs Your help. My mind is so fast with its judgements \u2013 there must be a better way to make use of it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPerception is a mirror, not a fact. And what I look on is my state of mind, reflected outward.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t see the real world. My mind judges everything I see against the small bits of knowledge and experience I have gained in this short life. I don\u2019t see because my mind can\u2019t handle taking in all I am exposed to in every moment. I don\u2019t see because, mostly, I am afraid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking out my kitchen window this morning I could see the sea. As I turned away my mind popped up the idea, \u2018what if there is a tidal wave?\u2019 I had to turn back to look again, checking the horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everything I see is a threat or a problem to be solved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I shall look again, give a second gaze, to move past the reactionary impulses of my mind. Now the sea shines with the reflection of the Sun giving me colors of white, yellow, orange, and blue (with purple on the horizon). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long loving looks bring me into this holy instant where I can SEE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great Love, help me to remember to pause to honor Your Creation that surrounds me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Something grew in me this past weekend, which I blogged about yesterday<\/a>. Today, I recognize that I\u2019ve been obscuring the sight of Christ. When I think of people in my life and events of my past, there is an ease, understanding, and the openness of forgiveness to my feeling now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s all OK. My perception has changed. I bless all my loved ones — I was unable to see them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christ has risen in me! Thank you, God. _\/\\_<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
