God, what is your guidance for me, today?

Be loving and patient,

any way asked of you, today.

Make room in your mind/body/soul

to be of service today…

to extend hospitality and be 

welcoming… with an open heart.

Clear any negativity with prayer

and supplication.

Today,

be a light for others.

Breathe in love…

Breathe out willingness.

Breathe in willingness…

Breathe out love.

Today,

for the sake of others.

This is selfless service…

This is your calling, today.

Will you say yes?

 

Evening Reflection 

Today was a day I really needed to clear the decks and be there for someone. I also had some deadlines to meet. I could feel the inner tension as I was called upon. This is when I sat down to write the day’s guidance.

I can feel the guidance coming through… and I write. I can now tell more easily when it is not the guidance, but ego, or my own mind trying to speak. But when Spirit comes through, it feels very different. It comes from a place transcendent of mind, body, ego, and emotion. And I know it isn’t some disembodied soul yelling into my head.

How do I know?

The more time one spends with the Divine the more familiar one becomes with how the Divine feels within. It is an energy and presence that is unmistakable. It is of a different order and of a different paradigm of reality. And it needs no proof.

One very interesting development is that sometimes I find the guidance leads me to write “I” for God, and sometimes not. We speak of becoming ONE with God, and I have glimpsed it experientially several times… as when I may write the pronoun ME or I, for God. Sometimes, it is clear that the Divine is speaking TO me… and at other times it is speaking THROUGH me. Today it was a to me day.

And I did clear my agenda… and experienced a beautiful day of serving another.

How’d you do with this?
