The Divine encourages us to begin the journey inward.
This is a most daunting task because for too long we have been taught that the answers we seek are outside of ourselves—with this teacher, that seminar, those books.
To believe that all the answers we search for so painstakingly are found inside of us seems a ridiculous notion, for what could WE possibly know? We are ordinary people struggling with Universal Truths. Surely, the solution to our dis-ease is out there somewhere!
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Within each of us is a small, divine spark, a glimmer of God itself. By spending time with and nurturing this glint of divinity—our spirit— we come into greater contact with the Transcendent, deepening our relationship, creating communion.
Through an inner journey, we can come to know ourselves within a sacred framework, and, in so doing, experience firsthand the presence of our Source.**
On this Meditation Monday, take a few moments to reflect upon your divine connection.
~Close your eyes, take three calming, cleansing breaths and move your attention inward.
~Visualize, if you can, this sacred spark of your being burning brightly within you.
~Watch it glow. Feel its warmth—calming you, centering you, reminding you that the greater Spirit (God) dwells within you.
~Trust, that all you need to know, have, and be is right here, right now, contained within this sacred spark. You need not search anymore.
May your day be blessed. May you live with ease knowing all is always well.
Now, does your heart have anything to say?
