Pain’s Purpose How blind is he who prays that God will send All pain from earth. Pain has its use and place; Its ministry of holiness and grace.

Spirituality from Daily Word: “Commit” – Espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria: “Compromiso”
Commit I commit to expressing my higher Self. Today I resolve to carefully observe my thoughts and actions and notice where I can make improvements. I begin by being more aware of my judgments and more attentive to what others are saying, perhaps by being more forgiving of perceived shortcomings or errors of my own….
“Today’s soul whisper: The soul of self-isolation” by Michèle @ organicschat (re-blogged)

The soul of solitude ? One of the challenges of this time of self-isolation is that it is easy to bypass this unique opportunity we all have for inner-growth. I’m specifically speaking about soul-growth. As a human species, we are here to be human. To be present. To…
A quote from Neale Donald Walsch on “there is a book right now waiting to be read by you”…
There’s a book right now waiting to be read by you. Do you think this book has come into your awareness by accident? It has been placed before you by your Consciousness. Go get it. Read it. Make margin notes. Do it now. Sometimes Life jumps out at you with its message, fairly screaming…
MYSTICAL POEMS: “When I was” by Meister Eckhart
“When I was” When I was the stream, when I was the forest, when I was still the field, when I was every hoof, foot, fin and wing, when I was the sky itself, no one ever asked me did I have a purpose, no one ever wondered was there anything I might need, for…

MYSTICAL POEMS: “Cosmic Breathing” by Mystic Meandering
“Cosmic Breathing” Sitting in the Silence of the Inner Landscape, I suddenly realize the Cosmic Breath of Infinity is slowly breathing this body – breathing in… breathing out… Held in the pause between breaths – I recognize that “I” am being breathed by an unheard Rhythm… From the Inner Window, at the edge…
Wisdom quote: about “the center of our being” by Dag Hammarskjöld
In the point of rest at the center of our being, we encounter a world where all things are at rest in the same way. Then a tree becomes a mystery, a cloud a revelation, each man a cosmos of whose riches we can only catch glimpses. The life of simplicity is simple, but it…
POEMS: “The spirit is the bouquet of nature” by Joseph Campbell
art by Bridget Voth “The spirit is the bouquet of nature” The divine manifestation is ubiquitous, our eyes are not open to it. Awe is what moves us forward. Live from your own center. The divine lives within you. The separateness apparent in the world is secondary. Beyond the world of opposites is an…
POEMS: “Feel your feelings” by Fred LaMotte
Feel your feelings It is good, it is very good to feel precisely what I am feeling, even grief, and despair. For when I am completely what I feel, there is transformation and healing. No darkness left to penetrate, for I am all night. This is how light is born. This is how…
