Our life's journey continues on in living and beyond




Dear Family of Love and Pilgrims on Our Journey,

Happy Self-care Saturday and all that entails. I hope everyone had a good day. For those of you who are watching "Belief" we have the series finale tonight and it is called 'The Good Life" I'm reminded of the inspirational quote "Life's a journey not a destination!" That is exactly how we must view our spiritual and physical lives. I believe that we all are called to find our purpose in living. As a cancer survivor I found meaning in writing this blog and showing all of you how we can Can the Cancer without fear and anguish. We must not fear transitioning in life or into death because those are times which we cannot fight. We must not fear how these play out. We must live life to the fullest and by the same token be prepared to make many stops and recalculations on our life's journey. We should approach our lives as good ones. I’m not saying that we need to have a Pollyanna view of living not at all but we must rely on God as our guide on our journey in life and into eternal life.  How have you prepared for the end of life? What are the things that you know you must do to make life’s journey more bearable for your loved ones? Tonight these are our questions to ponder but we will not share our answers until tomorrow. I will not give you a checklist until sometime next week.  All I know is this is that we must use Love’s Energy to drive our lives and life paths into making our lives positive and life giving.

Tonight let us enter into this time with love in our hearts and acknowledge our reliance on God and that we need to connect ever more deeply.  Let us do our traditional mindfulness time exercises.

Inhale Love

Be Still and Know That I am God

Today we are going to spend a few minutes seeking God in the quiet doing our sit. 

Tomorrow and in the days to come we are going to Seek God within ourselves by meditating and going deeper into our heart homes. Seek to know and to love God more fully. As we seek God let us be also be continually transformed on our life's pilgrimage. As we are being transformed let us seek and feel God's presence and learn how to ask God for help in our prayers. 

In the coming days we are going to do all three as in the title of tonight's blog along with our viewing of "Belief"  

Key episode titles: 
"Seeking"
"Love's Story" 
"Acts of Faith"
" Change is Gonna Come"
"God Help Us"
"The Practice"
"A Good Life"
You may meditate on these key episode words as well

God of love, we continue to pray for an end to violence, war, terror, and anything that draws us away from being the loving family of God you made us to be.
God of love, we continue to pray for the people and cities and lands where violence has occurred , that as they grieve they may feel your loving and healing arms around them.
God of love, we pray for peace in this fragile and broken world and that we may raise up leaders who are peacemakers and not warmongers. May they do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with you O, God.
God of love, shower upon us rains that will cleanse and heal your drought parched lands 
God of love, love we pray for all the many faith leaders and communities that need help in becoming loving and accepting of one another.
