Meditation Instructions for Sun., July 11, 2010

For this Sunday, July 11th, the focus for our meditation will be on Patience. We examined this principle back in January of 2009 but with more of a focus on our then newly-elected government. This week we want to examine the notion of Patience in our own lives. Someone recently questioned why I bother growing my own vegetable garden. Most of the time I would respond things taste better when they are home grown, and they do. There's a world of difference between a tomato picked fresh off the vine from a home garden and one trucked or flown in from across the country. However, in the area where I live that isn't a sufficient excuse as there is an abundance of locally grown produce available in our area. This individual questioned why I bothered to grow something that was readily available in similar quality and for likely the same cost after you figure in materials such as plants and fertilizers and the expense of one's time. They noted that because I planted my garden a little later this year I have to wait some time before even the first tomato will become available. But to me it is well worth the wait. I am willing to be Patient for the garden to slowly grow over weeks before it finally produces fruit. Once it does, there is a huge sense of self-satisfaction in harvesting something I have produced myself. In our own lives this week we want to examine where we invest our time and efforts. Is what I produce worth the wait required to see what is harvested? Do I need more Patience in order for something to achieve its full potential?

Please follow the same practice as before: Get centered in your body, ask to bring in your guides and others who are there to assist us, connect to the circle of others participating in this project, and create the brilliant star-like light over the nation. Extend blue rays from the center of this light to the nation's four borders and then connect to the grid or matrix that extends from the circle.

Ask yourself how does it feel in my body when I exercise Patience? How does it feel when I am able to be Patient for something I know will be worth the wait? Then send the energy and intention of that feeling to the grid for the nation.

Be sure to disconnect from the circle at the end and express thanks for those who have helped us in this effort.
