I have a fountain that was given to me years ago.  It hasn’t been used much but recently I cleaned it out, washed all the stones and rinsed out the bottom.  After filling it with water and plugging it in, I took a long time to arrange the slate levels (sort of like steps) that the water trickles over.  From the assortment of rocks I carefully placed them to maximize the flow. It was then that I noticed something that also relates to our lives here on earth.

 

When I moved just one stone, the flow of water changed.  No matter how minuscule the difference was, the current shifted.  As I continued building my waterfall, I thought how this can be applied to our energy and actions.

 

Our flow of energy affects not only our lives, but those around us.  What we do or say or think changes things.  This is true even if the person isn’t in our direct vicinity; it is possible when we think about people or ‘send’ our thoughts in prayer.  Just as one small shift of a stone in the waterfall influences the direction of water, what we do has a connection to others.

 

Like a ripple in a pond, energy goes out, creating what we are putting into it, then returns to us.  Either a kind, loving, positive thought or something filled with anger, lack or fear, it manifests because we have given it life.  We have ‘moved the rock’ and ‘shifted the flow of water.’

 

Where are your thoughts going today?  How is the water in your life flowing?  Does it flow smoothly, with love, kindness, joy, abundance and gratitude?  Are you restricting it or damming it up with negativity, thoughts of lack, or hurtfulness?  Pay attention to these waters of life and how they flow, for one small shift can make a big difference.

 

Flow on, bubble along with happiness and joy in your day….

 

Blessings,

Easter morning at the Farifax Hilton Garden Inn…., 3/23/08

 

In a chair for right-handers, light on the left, the shadow of my writing hand is casting a shadow on the paper. 

 

Holding the book, “The Seven Whispers”, asking for guidance, thinking of the meaning of Easter, spring, rebirth.  Thumbing the pages back and forth, knowing that what I find it what I will know.  From back to front the pages flip.  I open the book randomly to page 50 and read about the angel but something says; ‘read backwards’ and I do.  Flip back to page 46 and my eyes fall on the words, “Right now in my life.”  That’s all I read, then flip forward to page 49 and see, “The work does not need to be grand.”  (read entire paragraph)  then forward to the end of the chapter.  I hear, “The work will find you.”

 

This quest for Lowe’s does not define WHO you are but who you think you should be. This is not you.  It is a comfort zone where you, your brain thinks you should be, but DON’T think.

 

The work will find you – it is not ‘work’.  You are doing the work of the world.

 

We FEED each other spiritually.

 

I have called it down to me and it shall be.

 

I have said that I didn’t want to go back to work at Lowe’s and I am not.  From the fear-filled place, I think I have a right to be there – that I should, that I have a right. But no, the right is not mine – it is not right for me.  My terror filled mind, the mind of lack insists and controls this drive.  I listen to and believe the ‘shoulds’, the “I’m entitled to”, “There’s no reason I shouldn’t be hired”, and ‘Why not?, when it should be   WHY?  Why return to a place that I hated; one that controlled my life; took away my health and respect?

 

The reason IS…, that I’m NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THERE.

 

I return home and read what’s written here. Glancing to the bottom of the page is see, “Everything. Right where you need it” Another affirmation of everything IS OK.

We are spiritual, despite our attempts to deny it.  Our lives intersect with Creation in a thousand ways every day.  Not just in human terms, but with our pets, the other creatures that share this planet and the energy that most of us call GOD. Distractions assault us on  many levels.  In our hurried lives we often overlook the gentle whisperings of Spirit.  On this site, through my writings and experiences, I’d like to be a reminder of that whisper. My hope is to feed you….. spiritually.  Many Blessings…..  Bev
