For this Sunday, December 23rd, the focus for our meditation
will be on Hope. This is a time of year when the difficulties we
face may appear magnified. The
juxtaposition of any trial we may be experiencing against the backdrop of what
is supposed to be a joyous holiday season only seems to make the contrast more severe. For those who have been out of work, for
those who have lost their homes or are in fear of becoming homeless, and
especially for the families of Newtown, Connecticut it may seem impossible to
feel any sense of joy right now. For
many there is certainly no perceptible reason to feel merry. This week in our prayer and meditation, while
we may not be able to completely eradicate their fear and sorrow, we can offer
them the promise of Hope. Let us confidently ask that those seeking
employment obtain suitable work, others find the security of having a home of
their own, all who are facing serious illness be given healing, and may those
consumed with sorrow receive comfort. In
extending Hope to them through our
prayers and meditation we may bring them the promise that the future will hold
something better.
In our efforts this week let us also use the energy of our
prayers and meditation to amplify the light that covers and fills this
nation. As we perform our meditation let
us re-energize the brilliance and power of the light we create. Begin by forming a concentrated ball of light
that is so bright it is almost impossible to look directly at it. Raise this sphere of light up high over the
nation and then let its rays cascade down to create a solid, impenetrable dome
of light that completely covers every inch of our country. From shore to shore and border to border let
the entire continent be filled with this brilliant, dense light that will serve
to magnify the best and highest qualities of our country and the people who
live across its vast lands.
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,
and connect to the circle of others participating in this project.
Ask yourself how do I feel when I am filled with the Hope that the future will bring a solution to any challenge? How does it feel in my body when I have Hope that any difficult situation can eventually get better? Then send the energy and intention of those feelings to the nation.
Be sure to disconnect from the circle at the end and express thanks for those who have helped us in this effort.
