Prayer for Seeing Clearly
Bless us this day with your presence
Show us the way through the hard to see places
Anoint us with the oil for far seeing
A People Who Believe
What we are in need of,
first and foremost,
is being a people
who believe change
is possible
even in the face of
the impossible.
Imagine A Woman – Meet Me At The Sacred Circle
magine a woman who trusts and respects herself.
A woman who listens to her needs and desires.
Who meets them with tenderness and grace.
Imagine a woman who acknowledges the past’s influence on the present.
A woman who has walked through her past.
Who has healed into the present.
Our Lady of the Red Thread
Our Lady of the Red Thread
According to thy Wisdom
Open the doors that need to open.
Close the doors that need to close.
We Sorrow! O Blessed Lady! A Prayer for Healing
Our world longs for healing
I know you hear our tears falling
The polar bear father groans for his children
The butterfly pauses too long on a wayward branch
The wolf mother considers if having cubs is a good idea
The salmon, bewildered swim in circles, aching with eggs
The blue bird of happiness seeks her mate, calling, calling…
The inch worm only attempts a quarter inch this morning
The depressed human, does not want to rise from sleep today
Practicing Peace – A 30 Day Plan for Thriving During Challenging Times
I send you greetings this bright December 1st! I woke up thinking about you again…
and about what so many of us are going through! What a time we are having right now! Whether our challenges are being too busy, being financially stressed or moving through the kind of blues that seem like it will never end, there is always something we can do to lift the dark clouds. I believe!
One of the hardest parts of going through challenging times is that when in the very midst of it, it has this impermeable quality that seems to echo lies like: “this it is how it is now”,which continues to create the sinking feeling we already have. Or we have been skidding downhill for a while now, and it appears there is still very much more skidding ahead, so, despair comes and pounds on the door of our heart and says things like: ”you have been in denial, you are too optimistic, face it, you are going down.”
We have tried red wine and chocolate and festive gathering with friends. We have even tried making a decision to “shop anyway”. But somehow the old quick fixes aren’t fixing. That is because it is not just us – we know of many who are also challenged right now – and it is not that misery loves company because misery is so morbid, it is because we do not want to feel alone in our dark night depth diving.
Lady Weave
There is a weave of love and instruction
You have placed upon my life.
Your Son said His yoke was easy and His
burden was light.
The Seventh Sense – CREATIVITY
Being Bountiful No Matter What For a long time now, For too too long now We have been listening to voices which are not our own Listening to ideas of worth and value and usefulness That are not who we are. We have taken on the message we have been fed and sold Not based…
A Prayer Request: When Hard Times Come To Town
When we cannot see the way through
Give us the courage to continue in faith
When hard times come to our family
Let us gather strength enough to lead
When those around us are falling
Show us the way to stand supportive ground
When we have lost what we have worked for
Cause us to consider there is another way to see it
The Awakened Heart
An awakened heart happens
when a person is awakened
through compassion to an awareness
of the collective beauty and suffering
