death...

am reminded through the death of a loved one, that death is not an end...for the one apparently dieing, death is spiritual release...true; the body goes into the ground...and we are not to see that person anymore as before...but think about it...eventually, what was the body will become the soil...and maybe a flower will grow...honeysuckle...will feed the birds and bees...and on and on...and the spirit...will soar into eternity...

Whoever has a heart full of love, always has something to give.

If you are like the vast majority in America, money is something that has eluded you, or so you think. Compared to third world countries, even if you lived under a bridge in a box, and got your meals, baths, clothes, and healthcare at the mercy of a mission, you are far better off then they are. Our real problem is that we have too much of what is unimportant, and not enough of what is. We need more love, and less stuff. Love can be expressed in many ways, but love of God and love of soul are by far the most important.

Moment by moment, I will strive to remember that Gods Kingdom is spiritual and not of this world. I will fill my heart with Gods love, and I will own the greatest gift of all.

All the Kings horses and all the Kings men couldn't put Humpty together again.

When we fall from grace, or become entangled in a life of self, if we are lucky enough to make our way back to God, figuratively speaking, we come back broken in a million pieces. We usually have exhausted every recourse, but we are unable to fix ourselves or our lives without Gods divine intervention. The great advantage we have on this earth against its prince the devil, (whom i am convinced is the ego-self), is with God working in our life in every moment...the devil-of-an-ego is ignorant of God's next move. True: self can and will throw up roadblocks, red lights, and stop signs, but it is God that can operate with total freedom and call checkmate before our ego-self, or satan if you will, even gets his pawns in a row!

Moment by moment, I will remember that all things are possible with God, even fixing a broken Humpty Dumpty!

woke up...

I woke up without me;
what an extraordinary sense of being;
i'd gone to sleep the night before,
still wearing what was me.
is it possible to dream away the dream i use to be?
can illusion dream itself away, into pure conscious being?
intrusion of illusion...thought that i was breathing;
concept on top of concept...interferred with seeing.
I woke up without me...impossible to do;
there never was a me...
or anything to wake up to...

tic toc...

tic toc, tic toc...

out of contridiction, such suffering is born:
your way my way...ALL IS GOD'S HIGHWAY,
even the butterfly whose wing is torn.
seven days in which to LIVE...flying round IT'S SKY...
wonder if a butterfly,has time to wonder why?
only for a season does a buttercup appear;
doubt that it has any time to dream a dream of fear.
tic toc tic toc...NOW check your watch...
and wonder what you'll be...
break the bonds of time and whys...in this INSTANT...

BE FREE...

butterfly or buttercup...

i can dream about heaven, or a butterfly,
or anything i might want to be,
precious moments of living unlived,
seem to fly with speed...past me...
living in my mind is not living at all,
whether it be future or past...
wonder how long a buttercup,
thinks it's going to last?
dream a little dream...dream a dream of me...
i'm nothing but a vapor...in reality...
in God i move and have my being...
is that not enough?
LIVE your LIFE...for YOU ARE LIFE...
butterfly...or...buttercup...

a blade of grass...

a blade of grass, blowing in the wind;
is that what becomes of me?
maybe my ashes will be scattered in the ocean...
or burried beneath an oak tree...
matter...matter...what does it matter?
isn't my LIFE right NOW?
this INSTANT IS ALL there ever will be,
LIVE IT...BE IT...that's how...

i will accept that i am...God's reflection...

understanding that i am a reflection of the thought of God is a difficult process. that "i" do not exist, except through the conscious of that which i choose to call God...and that the "i" of ego is illusion.

moment by moment...surrendering all that "i" am to the God of understanding...allows being...

Twenty Four Hours A Day...

Meditation for the Day...May 1...

All material things, the universe, the world, even our bodies, may be Eternal Thought expressed in time and space. The more the physicists and astronomers reduce matter, the more it becomes a mathematical formula, which is thought. In the final analysis, matter is thought. When Eternal Thought expresses itself within the framework of space and time, it becomes matter. Our thoughts, within the box of space and time, cannot know anything firsthand, except material things. But we can deduce that outside the box of space and time is Eternal Thought, which we can call God...

April 29...

Be slow to speak, and quick to listen.

The tongue is full of deadly poisons. We are warned by Gods word many times to control what we say. Words are sinful when used as weapons to hurt someone, or to try and control them or their actions. You can never take back what has already been spoken. You can ask for forgiveness, but the damage is already been done. Many times all another really needs is for us to really listen.

Moment by moment, I will think long and hard before I allow anything to come out of my mouth. I will listen with my ears, but I will hear with my heart.
