IS GOD BOTH MASCULINE & FEMININE?

Posted on by

Beloved,

The town of Wales where I live is honoring its 250th anniversary by
having an 8 day celebration. It started with an enormous parade
included cardboard boat race (the boats are actually made out of
cardboard), oldie pictures and movies, water skiers who were fabulous
some were six skiers carrying six other skiers, boat parade, baseball
challenge between Police and Fire Dept., Black Hawk helicopter honoring
the veterans, a play about OUR TOWN, sock hop with a mysterious
Elvis making an appearance, a car show tonight with a Trasher truck?,
a Bass Derby, BBQ and multiple bands throughout the week.

It has been well attended and it has been fun as well as heart warming
seeing the people we know in many different scenarios. Much laughing
and eating as well as dancing has occurred and for a small town with
about 2,000 residents, we did ourselves proud.

I always start my weekly TV Show by saying the Lord’s Prayer in
Aramaic which is Jesus’ own language that he spoke when he was here
on Earth. I like to create sacred space where my viewers and I
are connected heart to heart and I guide them into feeling the Love
that Father/Mother God had for Jesus and vice versa bringing
them into the Love exchange so they know that they are loved just
as well since Divine Love always spreads to all who are conscious
of it.

Well, this week I was challenged in a friendly way about God being
only masculine and not feminine. I went to 12 years of Catholic
school and am still Catholic but as a child I did not see God
as this stern male figure who meted out punishments at the least
infraction. I saw God as a true Father who loved me and the whole
world and only wanted me to be happy. As I kept increasing my
knowledge of spirituality and religion, I came to believe that God
was in everything. After all, he created every single living thing
here on Earth and our Bible and Religion tells us that we were made
in the Image of God and since half of the humans were female, God
has to be part female too!

In fact, can I get profane here? God is also a cockroach as God
created ALL living things. There would be no “life” without the
Essence of God. The Divine is in all life and we are loved
unconditionally even if life is as small as an atom or a bedbug.

God is all encompassing no matter what name you call the Holy Presence.
God also told Abraham that his name is: I AM THAT I AM. How many
times a day do each and every one of us say: I AM……tired, sick,
happy, sad, angry, jealous, hungry, cold, warm, etc? If you pay
attention you will be surprised how many times you use God’s name
in just an hour let along a day. Are we taking the Lord’s name in
vain?

When I was about 8 years old, I was told that only Catholics could
go to heaven. That confused me so I went to my priest and asked
him if that was true as my little cousin who was my age was not
Catholic. He said it was true. I was adamant. I straddled my legs,
put my hands on my hips and said: “My God would not do THAT!”

Today, you don’t hear anymore about only Catholics going to heaven.
I KNOW that God loves us all without preference and someday we will
all be with the Divine in what we call Heaven. God is so much bigger
that we can conceive. Just look at your body and how billions of
cells are each in a different organ (religion) but together they
form a “body” which is you. The human mind could not have
conceived a human body that could work with all the billions of cells
doing their own jobs still be the “chalice” of the soul and have
the mind work as it does. That is the biggest miracle ever
performed. I see the earth as a body that contains billions of
cells (us) and each cell (you) fulfilling its purpose on Planet Earth
that it chose before it was conceived.

SUMMER LEADS TO REMINISCING – WILLIE NELSON

Posted on by

Beloved,

Well, I would say that summer is here. This hot weather
is nice as we have had cooler nights so the warmth is nice
during the day and an excuse to go swimming. I don’t know
about you but I have to be “hot” and sweating to brave
the temperature change of the water. Now, the water is
warm and the contrast is less so it is more enjoyable. I
don’t have air conditioning so I just go jump in the lake
to cool off and it is quite effective as well as fun.

I love watching people swim as that is one skill I don’t have
but would like to have. There is a woman who swims with
such ease, she does not even have to move her arms fast. She
just sort of ambles along and when she floats her feet stick up.
When I try to float, my feet sink downward. I am grateful for
noodles to float along on but I am more aware now of a fear
that I have not conquered yet. My fear of drowning that was
instilled when as child, the boys kept taking my hands off
the raft that I had finally gotten to on my first attempt. I knew
I was drowning and to this day do not know how I ever got up
on the raft.

I kind of feel like a failure for not addressing this fear much
sooner because I like to pride myself on conquering so many
of the fears I used to have. I don’t feel like I have the energy to
do this one as it is a “fleeting” skill that I would use only in the
few months of summer. Perhaps I will address that at a
future time. And….I do have my trusty noodle.

What fantastic timing. This Quote is from ABRAHAM:

Most people have a hard time delegating, or even wanting to
delegate, because you have been justifying your existence
through your hard work, and you equate success with struggle;
you equate results with struggle. And so, you sort of wear
your struggle like a badge of honor. And all of that is opposite
of allowing the Well-being. The only thing that ever matters
in success or achievement is your achieving the things that
you want to achieve. So if you are setting standards and
you’re feeling uncomfortable about the standards that you’ve
set, tweak the standards back a little bit. Ratchet it back a notch.
Give yourself a break. Give yourself the benefit of the doubt.
Lighten up. Be easier. Go slower. Take it easy. Have more fun.
Love yourself more. Laugh more. Appreciate more. All is well.
You can’t get it wrong. You never get it done.
— Abraham

I guess this means I don’t have to take swimming lessons? : > )

I so look forward to the Baltimore Oriole’s coming, they
are so much fun to watch and are here only for about
three months. Well, the babies are grown now and the
parents are nowhere to be seen. There are a few of
the young ones remaining but they will be gone in a few
days. the feeders on one side of the house have no
traffic and the ones on the side of the lake are visited
only occasionally. Their departing is a signal that the
fall is on the way, much like the store sales that are
here promoting back to school. The hummingbirds
are still here and I will now have more time to enjoy
them until their departure in September.

Would you like to see some different pictures of our
beloved planet?

divine and that the divinity is the
sacred space of the soul.

I hope you have been enjoying Panache Desai and Jennifer
McLean of Healing with the Masters. There has been
so many healing miracles and the alchemy of those two
on one show for four nights this week has blown my
mind away. Many people are writing about the
AHA moments they are getting and how their lives
have already changed by feeling the love that
Panache has for all of his listeners which allows
them to love themselves so unconditionally. It
blows my mind that this is all free and it comes
into our own home so we don’t have to travel
to get these miracles. I am so grateful.

The heat must have gotten to me, all I am
doing is reminiscing and this one will lift your heart.

It’s hard to believe that Willie
Nelson ever looked this way…
I can honestly say that I can’t
ever remember him looking like this!!

CONSIDERING OTHERS ON THE FOURTH OF JULY

Posted on by

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY !!!

It hardly seems possible that it is here already. Where does
the time go? This particular holiday raises opposite feelings
in me. You know how I love the Baltimore Orioles and they
are here only for three short months. They come only to mate
and have their babies and then they are on their way back home.

I saw my first young Oriole this morning. It sure raised mixed
feelings in me. I don’t get to see them as fledglings since their
nests are high in the trees so I only see them once they have
experienced their solo flights and then the parents bring them
to teach them where the grape jelly is. I have tried sugar water,
and oranges and although they tolerate it they much prefer grape
jelly.

Feeding them grape jelly does present a challenge, especially when
it rains which washes the jelly away in the downpour. Picture me
trying to give them the jelly in between raindrops. A couple of days
ago, I had to go out and feed them 6 times. I don’t give them much
at a time when it rains so it requires many trips. The image of the
babies chirping with their mouths open for food is the impetus for
me to do this. Are you smiling yet at the picture?

This morning as it was going to downpour any moment, the parents
were in a rush to get them fed. Sometimes there were 4 adult Orioles
at a time at the feeder. Just because I saw one very young Oriole
doesn’t mean that all are out of the nest. There are still parents
gathering the jelly as it hangs from their beaks so they can feed
the ones who haven’t soloed yet.

In a few days, the parents will start to wean their young ones off
the grape jelly and teach them how to get the bugs and other
food sources so they will be ready for their long trip home. There
are no jelly stops on the way so they need to be prepared.

There is another side of living on a lake when it comes to July 4th.
It is not only one night that we have fireworks it is usually at least
3 – 4 nights, especially this year with the holiday falling right in the
middle of the week. It seems there is a competition among the
people around the lake as they take turns shooting them off even
on different days. It only takes one person to keep the whole
neighborhood awake with the fireworks display. They don’t seem
to realize or care that there are some neighbors who have young
children or the elderly who retire early in the evening. There are
nights that the loud noise goes on beyond 11PM.

One night would be sufficient and no one would complain but
there is always one person(there is always one, isn’t there) who
seems to feel the need to do this regardless of other people’s
preferences. If you live in the city then there is one gathering
place where these huge fireworks are shot off so it does not
affect everyone who does not choose to experience it and it
is only one night.

Another aspect is not considered, the animals. The animals
rely on their hearing for protection and this loud noise really
upsets their hearing and their well being. The Orioles usually
leave after all the noise as they cannot stay in their nests at
night because the nests are not far enough away from the
loud bangs which really affects them. Once the young birds
can fly, they no longer need their nests so the parents take
them far away to a source of quiet and they have no need to
come back as the jelly is not as important because now
they have other resources for their young.

That means the number of visits to my feeders will come
to a slow halt. This is why I also feel sad on the Fourth
of July as I know it will be a whole year before I get
to appreciate their beauty and songs again. It is bittersweet.

I want you to feel happy about the holiday but I wanted to
give you another aspect of the day and also of living on a lake.
Click on this and it will leave you smiling.

I listened to a talk given by Christine Day which I thought
was quite thought provoking but also gave me a totally
different perspective on trying to be perfect. Have you ever
considered that perhaps trying to improve yourself was not
what you were destined to do on this planet? Were you meant
to be Perfectly Imperfect and the truth is you were meant
to fail sometimes ? Would you like to learn how to do a
Conscious Breath? Just click on this link to hear this
amazing woman but do it quickly as I am not sure
just how long this replay will be available.
