God Took Me To Church Today

God took me to Church today,
First time in over 20 years.
A Divine date with my beloved.
Dressed in my Sunday best,
Off we went.

We sat up front,
We sang, we prayed, we listened, we saw, we enjoyed, we felt, we experienced,
We radiated Divine Love into every moment.
We wondered if others experienced God right there, stroking our cheeks, sitting within and without each and every one of us?

There was talk of fear and faith, 
sin and sacrifice.
Words that led me, decades ago, down the path of forgetfulness,
The experience of being alone in the world, 
The suffering of the ego.

No matter now…
Now that God has brought remembrance into every cell of this being,
Into every string of this heart.

God took me to Church today,
And revealed that church is everywhere, in everyone, in every place, in every moment.
We smiled a big smile,
We had fun,
The experience of “churching” was fun.

God wants to return,
God wants this body to return and be a beacon of joy and love,
Radiating silently the rays of truth from this heart.
May the veils of illusion rise and reveal God's church to all in every moment.

Conversations With God This Morning, Stuck In Bed

Struggling to get out of bed. 
The mind racing in and out of thoughts of what needs to be looked after,
Animals feeding,
Dogs walking,
Garden pruning,
Pond cleaning, 
Hedge cutting, 
Wood sawing, 

The list goes on…
But my heart feels held still in bed.
God whispering “Stay here with me. There is time to be moved to the list. Now is time to be with me and marinate in my love. Crumble the walls around your heart. Empty the muddy mind of anything that is saying …
Maybe this is it…”

Discomfort.
Restlessness.
Searching for an answer, understanding, googling new moons, Chinese new year, anything to bring relief….

This is not it. 

“Be still.
Stay with me my love.
Let my love steady you here.
The love you seek is right here.
Be still.”

Thoughts of unworthiness, guilt, shame, unlovableness continue to try and suck me into their depths…
But they don't stick anymore. 
I don’t want to go there anymore. 
I don’t know where to go anymore.

And I hear in my heart God calling,
“Be still. Stay with me here. Let me dissolve all untruths. All illusion. It is happening. You are being emptied and filled. “

And so I stay still, in bed,
Unwashed,
Ungroomed,
Uncertain, 
Suspended in nothingness,
Hanging in not knowing,
Waiting to be moved,
Feeling the experience of energy radiating in my heart 
Praying at this altar, on my knees at the pew of Gods church in my heart.

Empty me. Take it all. Fill me with only your love. I am lost without you.
Forwards, backwards, round and round.
I am tired of the wash cycle.
The ever unfolding of Gods unveiling. 
There is nowhere to get to.
There is nowhere to go. 
All that I am is right here in my heart.

“Take your hands off the wheel and let go of all structure, routine, rituals and perfomances.
Moment by moment,
Listen.
I am here. I am guiding you into heaven…right here….right now. 
Shhhhh….be quiet.
Let our secret  anchor and radiate from your heart.”

Life, Birth and Death

A day by the sea,
You reveal life and death
Happening all at once,
Out of, what seems like, human control,
His control, her control…

Dead birds washed up on the shingle shore.
A baby seal pup amongst the line up of death
Tinted orange like rust,
Injured, unable to move.

Its eyes, your eyes,
Pierce right into the depths of my heart
And my body lets out a sob.
Tears of compassion roll down these cheeks.
The sea no longer a place of nourishment for the living.

And this heart is moved deeply
And your divine grace is felt,
Is tattooed into wisdom.
Have mercy on these beautiful creatures
Your creations,
May they rest in your peace.

Looking out to the marshland
On the other side,
Is life all around.
The beauty of the long grass
Swaying in the ocean breeze
Moved by your breath.
Pulling on the strings of this heart,
The warmth of the Autumn Sun
Lighting up this face.

And I feel you drawing me in ever so close.
Whispers of remembrance grace my ears….

“Do you see me?
Do you feel me?
I am life all around.
I am death all around.
I am the love that weaves through all of creation.
Do not hold onto life so tightly and let me breathe you, move you, experience humanity through you.
Do not avoid death so fearfully and let me show you Divine birth and creation.
Relax.
Feel.
Fall into my arms and let me show you who I am…who you are.
I am Divine unconditional love in all of creation,
In every atom, 
In every cell.
If you fall into my arms,
I will catch you.
And truth will be revealed.
Life is love,
Life is birth, 
Life is death.
I am life, let me live you into remembrance and I show you eternal love.”

The Ego

The ego performs...
It has won countless oscars.
It has a huge fan base.

But You, my Beloved God,
You plant invisible seeds
Sit back and watch them grow and flourish,
With no need for validation or acknowledgement.
With no need to be noticed or heard.

May you hold me in your humbleness,
My heart yearns to be here with You.

The Magnificent Symphony

We are bespoke instruments of God
Breathing the glorious music of life into this world.
The sad notes, the angry chords, the joyful trills, the comical scales, the romantic melodies of love….
The strings of this heart, delicately plucked into song,
The keys of Grace played into this existence,
Touching souls,
Moving the veils of illusion.

The curtains draw back,
The orchestra revealed,
The show of remembrance begins, 
And God reveals the elegant dance of Truth.

Once seen, 
Once felt,
Once experienced,
The exquisite symbiosis,
The divine orchestration,
The tender revelations of the magnificent symphony of what we call life.

We are bespoke instruments of God breathing the glorious music of life into the world.
What tune will the Infinite conductor of all creation play next?

Lost In Divine Love

The tenderness of the breath breathing you in every moment
Drawing you into the depths of the heart.
And here you stay. 
And here you wait patiently for God to reveal his boundless Love.
The love affair deepening
In the stillness
In the silence
The ego mind showing you its busyness
Revealing...
"This is not it..."
Noisy
Heavy
Tense
And the breath slowly stilling 
And the heart slowly softening  
With time…
With patience… 
With devotion each moment
Each day
Returning to rest in the heart
Experiencing love songs that ripple through every cell
Gods light lighting
Losing yourself in Divine Love.
Why would you want to be anywhere else?

My Beloved

I close my eyes
Breathe into my heart
And there You are.
I feel you warm my insides
Like whisky dipped in stars.
I feel you stroke my face with the tenderness of silk
And whisper to me,
You are my beloved.

I open my eyes 
And you are still there.
Always with me. 
Your invisible arms hold me
Like a mama bear,
And I am filled with wholeness,
The sky, the sun, the sea, the earth…
Humbled by your Grace
And I know
I am your beloved.
