Dear Hearts,
I miss you. I pray for you. In my meditations you are carried on
the wings of Michael as we soar through illumined skies of truth and beauty.
Our hearts like fiery suns, reflect the golden Benevolence of God.
Many are writing or calling with challenges. Many seek hope for the
journey. You are hope. You are the smile, the refreshing pause, the
perfect word, the consciousness of the new world. I am hope-full and want
to offer you the sweet taste of joy that underlies our transformation.
Our meeting this week will open with a short meditation and a video which
I trust will inspire you to walk with certainty in the face of ego antics.
Below a Light conversation with Christ, Jesus who plays with me as wisdom, and
is the beloved I call Jess. Scroll all the way down, and find the link for
our next ACIM zoom meeting, today! Come to the meeting. Check out our
website and please happily consider making a donation.
Thank you for being my sister,
brother Christ,
All Love

Strength, Speed, Wisdom and Love: A
Foodie’s Perspective of the Journey
I walk with Jess, fat and strong as a sumo.
He has nursed me on the milk of magnitude.
Still, He says, you must also have the speed of light.
Ha. I giggle. That would be a miracle!
Patience He chuckles, is your turbo.
I have an image that makes me dizzy.
Sister Ostrich is carrying my heart
from 4th to 5th dimension.
Jess continues.
You would also want wisdom.
Strength and speed need
Benevolent Intelligence
if your journey would beget ripe fruit.
I remember the day a borderline psychotic came
to dine with me. I thought I’d be queen of psychology.
He threw the table upside down and further squished the squash.
Analyzing a brother, I learned, is a path of sour slops.
Wisdom doesn’t therapize.
It seeks no proof. It does not fix.
It dines each time with Christ.
Each meal is the last supper,
Each sip of wine, your first communion.
My Love is a holy basket
for the fresh baked bread of wisdom.
There you go again, I said, using those foodie metaphors.
But Jess went on.
Love is like a feast of such diversity,
of flavors and scents and textures yet untasted.
It is not merely lunch meats at your favorite cafe
but a smorgasbord at everyone’s home.
You partake and you chef.
You serve and you sample.
All the desserts are eaten first.
In Love, every table is your table,
every soul, your best guest.
Generousness is the joy of the rich.
All partakers are abundantly healthy.
Lover of God, find this morsel your fullness, AND
concurrently hunger for massively more.
Do you understand?
Hmm. Maybe.
(From the back of my right ear I hear a simple chant)
It’s like this—
a woman picks up a guitar to play.
She loves music. She loves the guitar.
But she’s never played or sung before.
In her passion she plucks one string.
Then two and makes a chord.
She sings, Ommmm!
believing tomorrow will bring her more…
three notes, an even sweeter score.
The first song is Ommmm.
The next, Shanti Ommmm.
Then, Shanti, Shanti, Ommmm!
Each day brings new sounds,
each note, a delicious appetizer
for something boundless and beautiful.
I adore you in this way, I say.
this boundless and beautiful way.
Yes, we are adorable.
We have adorability which unfolds infinitely
increasing the measure of our same Love.
Don’t you mean unfolds eternally?
God’s Love is not only forever,
but an ocean amplified
through Self-appreciation.
Self appreciation is Divine-rain
expanding the Body of Water,
moving the adorable beyond old limits,
raising Cosmic Consciousness of Love to greater depths.
Wow. I ponder this oxymoron. We are raised to greater depths.
Hungry?
Famished.
I know just the place,
a little dive with live music to die for,
and a heavenly smorgasbord.
