For this Sunday, September 28th, the focus for our
meditation will be on Sustaining. Ecological programs and “green” movements are
focused on trying to better Sustain
our planet’s limited resources. Someone
approaching retirement spends years planning for that phase of their life so
their financial resources will Sustain
them until the end of their life. In
each instance there is a limited quantity of a resource considered precious and
valuable that must be carefully considered in its use so it lasts as long as
possible. Beyond material resources
there are other aspects to our life that similarly require care and planning to
keep them going. Friendships, for
example, may sometimes require work to Sustain
the relationship over a lifetime. Family
relationships certainly can take a lot of effort to keep them healthy and happy
and Sustain those ties that can all
too easily be broken. The bottom line is
the final result is well worth the investment in time and effort it may take to
Sustain these important connections
in our life to others and the world around us.
This week in our prayer and meditation time let us consider what do we
cherish most that we want to make sure we Sustain
in our life? If there are aspects to our
life connections that we are not placing sufficient attention towards let us
ask to be gently reminded of their value and shown how to better Sustain these relationships and
resources so they remain a part of our world for as long as possible.
In our efforts this week let us also continue to use the
energy of our prayers and meditation to amplify the light that covers and fills
this nation. As we perform our
meditation this week let us begin by re-energizing the brilliance and power of
the light we create. Just as before,
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 entire 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 appreciate the value of my
life connections and enjoy working to better Sustain those relationships?
How does it feel in my body when I am surrounded by the joy and peace of
knowing I will be Sustained throughout
my life by the connections I make to others?
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.
