FEBRUARY DANCES WITH MARCH

Beloved,

Well, the Winds of Change are at again. As I sat in contemplation this morning, I was looking at my back yard and the lake. Although this has been a brutal winter, there is beauty to be found. I was admiring the snow drifts, the way the winds change the whole outline of my back yard and also the lake. The snowman that someone had built out on the lake proved no match for the wind last night and it is laying down out there now. My yard has peaks and gulley, some places are much higher than my fence and some places have only a smattering of snow. As I took the time to look at my special and only tree, I noticed the winds had placed a tall ring of snow around the trunk. There is no snow touching the tree as the winds have placed a tall circular barrier around its trunk with only the air from above allowed in. I finally looked at the tree itself and shook my head in amazement. I rubbed my eyes and kept looking at all the branches on it. The Tips of the branches have a red tint instead of the dull brown that it had before. Doesn’t the tree know that Spring is not here yet? The branches look like they are ready to bud and I am still in awe at what I see.

Two weeks ago (when I ventured outside) I heard birds singing: strong vocal singing, not just chirping. I did allow myself to stand there and enjoy the sounds before it got too cold for me. I went to my bird store to find out which sort of bird was singing but she could not help me. My golden finches are starting to get more gold in their feathers (the males lose their gold in the fall and it comes back in the Spring) . The signs of Spring are here but I am not believing them. It is contrary to what I feel (the cold) and my human mind just cannot surrender to that truth while my body denies its validity. The usual first sign of spring I get is the return of the turkey buzzards who are our bird friends who clean up all the debris from the winter. They are our garbage collectors who are the most graceful birds in flight with their wide wing span.

All of a sudden, it hit me like a ton of bricks. We are having March in February. You have heard about the March winds? Each month signifies something and March used to be the month of winds. Our climate is changing so much that the single definition of each month is no longer viable. We are having the February snows along with the winds of March. No wonder it is has been so volatile. I will now concede that it is possible that we will have an early Spring. Birds and trees know a lot more than we mere mortals do and I will confirm my belief that Spring is on its way and sooner than later. And….I call them the Winds of Change for a very good reason…there are many changes in the wind and we humans can either go with the flow or strive to combat them. Which will you choose?

The Stillness of space by Eckhart Tolle beautifully explains what is happening in winter or any other type of adverse weather or even a situation.

I received this daily inspiration from Christine Kloser which speaks of grace. As Grace is my last name, I resonate in my heart to this beautiful reminder that everyone is Grace. “By the Grace of God go I.” means to me that the Grace of Everyone is why my world is full of grace. Thank you for being a celebrated reader of my newsletter.

THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRUST & BELIEVE

Beloved,

I don’t know about your week but this has been one of the
busiest weeks I can remember. Every day there was an
appointment for either eyes,skin, having my taxes done, etc.
Whew, I even have to admit that I had not done dishes for a
week (I don’t have a dishwasher) until last night. My kitchen
looks so clean right now, I feel like I can breathe. I hope to
complete the kitchen transformation by vacuuming, then it
will be complete.

As I write this, it reminds me of the the transformation we
all undergoing. Our physical world is always right in front
of us like my kitchen, but how often do we look at our Soul
or Spirit and see that it also needs a loving touch or a cleansing
or refreshing. It does take time to self reflect on who we are
and where we are going and what are we doing for others?

I start my day with prayers and meditation even before I
eat so the deep peace is still with me from sleeping soundly.
I do have to admit when I needed to get up at 6:00AM
for three mornings (after all, I am retired), and after being
awoken by an alarm clock, I was kind of jarred into wake-
fulness. It was more difficult to meditate and I kind of
shortened the time because my mind was already on what
I needed to do and where I needed to go.

I much prefer to wake up on my own and I also admit that
I ask for help from the angels and they always oblige me and
I am woken gently. The angels always help me wake up on
time when I remember to ask them and I know they do it
EVERY day but when I NEED to get up early, I always
feel more comfortable by setting an alarm. So much for
my faith and trust, huh? Although one morning this week,
my alarm did not go off and the angels woke me a half hour
later so I still made my appointment in time.

You know guys and girls, it isn’t that the angels don’t do as
I ask but as we have Free Will, sometimes I just DON”T
want to be woken so I block them. It’s not their fault it
is my humanness that interferes with my receiving their
guidance. And…that goes for everything in life. We can
pray and our prayers are always answered but sometimes
our subconscious wants something different than our
physical mind does and it puts up interference in our
receiving our guidance.

We all need other and it is very powerful to pray for
others and to have others pray for us. When our
Will is weak, others can make us stronger with their
prayers (energy). Even Jesus said: “Where there are
two or more, there I AM”. I received this offer
from Jennifer McLean this morning and I was
blown away by it.

Do you know Ann Taylor? I have heard of her and
have actually listened to many of her talks. She is
one SUPER prayer person. She is so human, wait
until you hear of her childhood. And…then wait until
you hear how God has used her to help the world.

There are two free prayer invocations on your behalf
in this free recording that she is offering. Ann Taylor
is offering something brand new also but at least listen
to this and get a sense of where she is coming from.
I am a hard sell and “rarely” purchase what these
phenomenal speakers offer but this one spoke
to my heart. As I was pondering it, I “heard” a
voice(thought) that I had just done my taxes
yesterday and am getting a bigger refund than I
expected and God gave that to me so that I could
use it to bring healing and peace to my heart. The
biggest clincher besides the guidance is that the
prayers will release stuck energy for my whole
blood line which means my children and my
deceased relatives. Wow, what a gift I can
give to myself and to those I love the most.
Also there is a money back guarantee. How
can I say no to the assistance I have been
asking for? It is like asking God for help and
then refusing it because it doesn’t look like what
you expected.

You don’t have to buy but it is there if you wish to.
My wish is to let you feel and be aware of the “free”
healings that she offering. I get no money for promoting
this, I just want to let you know about the opportunity.
When I find something good, I just want to share it with
those I love and you belong to that category.

These are the words of Jennifer McLean:

Ann Taylor, and I were recently talking about how we have
heard from so many of you who are struggling with the basics
of abundance. We decided to have a call and offer some
healing around this important life challenge.

I am thrilled to share with you the results, a very special
call just for you… Ann, healer and known for her miraculous
prayer work, delivered the most relevant and powerful
information, PLUS several prayer healings that will shift
you instantly (you can listen free AND download and own
this one)!

If you are ready to have the most amazing tool to instantly
relieve stress then go now and listen.

If you are ready to manage the speed of change in your
life then catch this call.

If you are truly prepared to feel that your best days are
ahead of you then listen in, and feel the transformation.

I FEEL LEFT OUT

I feel left out – left out from the doings and celebrations
of my family and friends. I am restricted by Multiple
Chemical Sensitivity.

I don’t know if any of you suffer from this but it is
so subtle and insidious. If it caused physical pain
when I was exposed to chemicals in smoke,
perfume, exhaust, or any of the multiple ways
that it hides in many seemingly innocent things, it
would be so much easier to avoid.

When exposed, my body goes into shock and shuts
down. I run a fever, suffer depression, tears start flowing,
I suffer exhaustion and my brain goes haywire and won’t
focus or behave in a rational manner. There is no cure,
no pill I can take to offset the symptoms, there is only
avoidance. The worst effects last three days and then
dwindle away.

I have sometimes had to move at Mass four times to
get away from the fragances that are worn by people.
I have learned to sit in the front pew, that way I have more
fresh air around me.

It is not the fragrance itself but the chemicals that are
in it. Going to any crowded place like movies, dances,
gatherings, airplanes, and even other people’s homes is
kin to entering a mine field. I just never know what to
expect and who to avoid. I need to be on my most
alert self to detect any odors that might give these
chemicals away.

There was to be a baby shower for my newest
granddaughter but it turned into a Welcome Baby
gathering because she decided to make an appearance
a month early. I am not able to attend because my son
and daughter-in-law do not want to ask their guests to
be fragrant free. It is a simple thing to not spray yourself
with perfume or after shave but it is a deeply personal
thing which people seem to think defines who they are.

I understand but am still feeling left out because I cannot
attend such a celebration. I gifted the party with a diaper
cake – lavendar of course, for those who know me, and I
knit a baby afghan for Baby Victoria which is also in lavendar.
I can contribute in that way but still feel left out.

Do you remember when my daughter’s husband died and she
requested that I not attend the funeral because she did not
wish to speak to me? I was in quite a quandary about sending
her a card and you all gave me such encouraging words to do so,
which I did.

Well her daughter, my granddaughter, is graduating from college
this Sunday and has invited me to her commencement and to the
party afterwards. She had been upset that I was not allowed to
be with the rest of the family at the memorial service so she is
taking it into her own hands to make sure I am not left out
this time. For this I am so grateful.

The weather is promising not to cooperate and my granddaughter’s
apartment is way too small to allow her guests to be inside out of the
rain. Guess what is happening? My daughter is offering her condo
for the party knowing full well that I am invited and will be attending.
God works in mysterious ways. I do not know what will transpire
but am trusting in Spirit that all is in Divine Order.

There is only one hitch, the condo is small for all those people
and still have fresh air so the chemicals are not overpowering me.
It is too late to ask them to be fragrant free so I will be
winging it. I am not sure I will be able to attend the indoor
party but I am showing up. I am being given an opportunity
to at least see my daughter hopefully and I do not want to pass it up.

We always have choices, no matter what life brings to us. I
choose not to be ill and lose a week out of my life being sick
and not being able to function very well. This has been the
quandary that I have lived with for the last 35 years and
sometimes I throw all caution to the wind because I want
so badly to be part of the celebrations.

Part of me struggles because I know we create what we
focus on and I do not wish to create this sensitivity. Yet
when the effects show up, I need to apologize to my body
for subjecting it to such harsh treatment. It has been a tug
of war between my mind and my heart for ever so long.

If you have any family or friends that appear to be evasive
or never want to participate in gatherings, perhaps you will
give them the benefit of the doubt. They may get reactions,
not be diagnosed and have no idea why they hate parties
or gettogethers. It took me many years to discover what
was happening and I paid for an expensive test that the
insurance would not pay for in order to find out just what
was going on with my body.

I will keep you posted on the results of the opportunity
that God is giving me and my daughter. The following is
a prayer of encouragement to all who need to make a
choice.

Dear Lord,
I thank You for this day, I thank You for my
being able to see and to hear this morning. I’m blessed
because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God.
You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me.

Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me
to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude.
Let me make the best of each and every
day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.

Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things.

Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over.

And give the best response when I’m pushed beyond my limits.
I know that when I can’t pray, You listen to my heart.

Continue to use me to do Your will.
Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others.

Keep me strong that I may help the weak…
Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others.

I pray for those that are lost and can’t find their way.
I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood.
I pray for those who don’t know You intimately.
I pray for those that will delete this without sharing it with others.
I pray for those that don’t believe.

But I thank you that I believe that God changes people and
God changes things.

I pray for all my sisters and brothers, for each and every
family member in their households.

I pray for peace , love and joy in their homes that they
are out of debt and all their needs are met.

I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no
problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God.

Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.

Love and Light,

Mary Grace
