The EYE
Of
The NEEDLE
Stripping
What IS
Inessential
FEAR
DOUBT
WORRY
ANXIETY
ALL
That
MUST GO
Keeping US
From Showing
UP
For our
UPGRADES
For
MORE
Riches
Yet to BE
Known
CONNECTED
ENGAGED
Surrendering
To the
Whirlwind
Twisting
Us
SIDEWAYS
UPSIDE DOWN
HEAD FIRST
Trusting
OUR Wings
Believing
We will
LAND
On
New Ground
Making
Our Way
To our
FEET
BLOOMING
Where we ARE
Planted
Going
Where we
Have never
Been
STEP
By
STEP
Our Face

SUN
Even
When it is
Not

We KNOW
It is
EVER-PRESENT
Guided by
Faith
FEELING
The Warmth
The Radiance
Of
The SUNshine
In the Midst
Of
The STORM
When
The SKY
Has FALLEN
And
We
LET IT
Fall
RESTING
In THIS
Strange
CALM
No longer
RESISTING
No longer
TRYING
To hold Up
The SKY
ATTEMPTING
To keep
Things
LIFE
EVER-shifting
The Same
Wasting
Our Precious
Energy
FIGHTING
Against
What IS
To
CONTROL
The Uncontrollable
CAGED
By our Minds
LIMITED
Thinking
THINGS
Should be
A Certain
Way
Instead of
Being
CERTAIN
Amazing GRACE
Is
Ever-flowing
In
THE storms
In
THE calm
GRACE
Doesn’t
Operate by
OUR Limitations
OUR Fixed Ideas
THIS
Big LOVE
At WORK
For our
HIGHEST Good
For OUR
Greatest JOY
We cannot
FULLY
Comprehend
For
It is
BEYOND
Our Human Scope
What lies Ahead
ALL the WONDERS
ALL the MIRACLES
Yet to Be
KNOWN
The MAGIC
Life IS
Discovered
In
The Rubble
Of
The STORM
Our Shattered
Hearts
Our Brokenness
Ohhh…
But KNOWING
What lies Within
US
This GREATNESS
This LOVE
The TRUEST Power
A Force
That
GRACIOUSLY
Swallows
US
And
GRACIOUSLY
Spits
US
Out
In PERFECT
Time
Made Anew
MORE
Of
Who we ARE

REVEALED
So
We can
Taste
The BLESSEDNESS
We ARE
Life IS
Perpetually
CELEBRATING
Moment
By
Moment
LOVING
Unconditionally
Our Self
Our Life
LOVING
The STORMS
Dismantling
Destructing
Only
To BUILD
Us
Stronger
Than we
KNEW
Was Possible
Fortifying
Our INNER
Foundation
Where we can
STAND
In
The WELL
Of
HOPE
LOVE
FAITH
PEACE
Ever-Springing
RIDING
Out
The STORMS
That are Sure
To come
Just as SURE
As the
GOOD
That will
RISE
Taking
US
Higher
And
Higher
INTO
Our Self
This LOVE.
Storms
come and more will surely come but when we understand through experience that good rises from the rubble, that there
is always opportunity in the chaos of life, we ride the waves of grace
ever-flowing with a sense of Trust, Faith and Certainty. We can never know for sure how it will
unfold, all the miracles that will line up to reveal the magic that life is;
but trusting and reminding our Self over and over that the soul force of the
universe is at work in everything all
the moments of our life, working for our highest good leading us to a life that
mirrors our greatest joy – this Love we
are, we find rest in this strange
calm. When the energy of Love is present Fear cannot exist. Love is the highest vibration we can embody so
returning to the Truth of who we are grounding in our Spirit ever-free,
connecting to our higher Self and the Creator, Fear in its various forms: anxiety, doubt, worry will wash away breath
by breath. Ahhh…
As
I write this, Louisa May Alcott’s wisdom flashed through me: I am no
longer afraid of Storms for I am learning to sail my ship. This quote hung in my office for years
nourishing me as the storms came revealing more and more of me, helping me
ground in the power that lies within me and within all. My navigating wasn’t always pretty or
perfect. In fact, there were times, I
kicked and screamed and tried to will
life to be as I thought it should be. Fighting against life left me feeling crazy,
neurotic and exhausted; surrendering to what came my way, I learned to trust my
wings that have grown more glorious than I knew was possible over the years –
leading me into this life I love fiercely, following my bliss, living with a
sense of joy all day, every day, celebrating this adventure with all of me
engaged in this sacred dance, living this dream wide awake because of the storms that kicked my ass and showed me my truest
Self.
The
invitation this day is to look at the storms you have experienced in life and
see with eyes of awe and appreciation the gifts,
the beauty you are revealed in
the rubble. Mine for the gold and claim
the riches in every experience. Finding heaven in the hell is so divine as the soul knows that love is ever-present; Amazing Grace is at work in those events we
would never wish for, that which we curse as well as those events that are
beyond our wildest dreams, that which we bless.
Rest in this strange calm come what may knowing you are held in big love, in the hands of this universe
which will lead you home to more of
your Self again and again.
