For this Sunday, June 5th, the focus for our meditation will be on Creation. Recently I was joined for dinner by a neighbor I did not know well. I knew she had lost her husband a few years ago and for the longest time had been a bit reclusive but was finally beginning to emerge from her shell. Another friend with us asked how she was doing, and she replied, “Well, life is what you make it.” She admitted she had gone through a difficult period but eventually decided to look at things differently and re-engage again. She knew her life would never go back to how it was before, but she also knew she did not want to continue on the path where she had found herself. To her credit, she realized she could Create a new life for herself but only if she took the initiative. We are given the potential each day to either take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves or apathetically let them go by. I am always amused any time feedback is solicited about a meal, a training program, a performance, etc., because inevitably there will be some who experienced it positively and others who take a negative perspective of the exact same event. I have to wonder if the identical experience is perceived differently because of how the individual approaches it. Those who are stuck in wanting to find something to criticize will probably be able to do so. Those who come with an open mind and heart, ready to receive without expectation, will interpret it with positivity. It makes us understand we are given the raw clay of potential with each day and have the responsibility to decide what to Create with it. Will we let the clay dry out and harden or will we begin to mold something beautiful from it? This month in our prayer and meditation time let us reflect on what we are Creating from all that we are given. Are we pleased with the end result, or do we feel we are perhaps missing an opportunity to produce something better? Let us ask for guidance from Spirit to help us recognize those opportunities to be more Creative in our life and build up more than we are breaking down.
In our efforts this month 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 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 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 what do I feel in my body when I have been able to Create something that makes my life more positive? How does it feel in my body when I have wisely used my talents to Create goodness rather than bring negativity? 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.
