Reading Joel Goldsmith’s, Art of Meditating, I admired Joel’s steadfast knowing of God’s Grace within all and animating all. At times I know I am – we all are - a spark of the divine and that everything is unfolding perfectly according to the Great Weaver’s Plan.

Then, a passing comment from my husband (said without malice or slime) and my divine essence is forgotten and I feel miserably alone. I feel I am not doing enough, not making enough money, somehow not enough period.

Near tears I flee to our bedroom. From a distant place within me I know my reaction is beyond the present moment comment. My inner critic adds its mud, “This is your karma – you weren’t patient with your husband when he was unemployed.” I sink lower.

As I lay in tears upon our bed with my head upon my arm I hear a little whisper from within, “You are caught in something.” Miraculously, a silent calm fills me. Then, I hear “Thump-thump… Thump-thump…” My heart beat in my ear. Another whisper from within, “Do you control this beating heart?” ‘Ah, gee, no.’ Thump-thump. Thump-thump.

Next my own soft breathing fills my ear…then, that crystalline voice whispers: “Do you control each breath?” ‘Thank God, no – as surely I’d forget and die.’

Then images of my organs, digestion, elimination, trillions of cells, synaptic connections flash by in my mind’s eye… Outside my open window the constant urban buzz stops and, in a space of divine silence a bird song. Opening my eyes the world fills my vision and then, again, that still voice asks: “Do you control, create all of this?”

In that fleeting moment I KNOW – feel - God’s Grace animating all. In that moment of clarity I understand I don’t need to look, long or pray for God’s Grace – that I AM It. You ARE It. The very existence, essence, life, being-ness of All IS infused with and animated by God’s Grace.

Yet, at times we feel separate from our divine essence when clutched by fear or worry. Yet, if we stop… listen… there is an unchanging, spacious, eternal quiet within always guiding us.

Dear Reader: Will you stop and listen for a bit to the thump of your own heart beat, the soft flow of your own breath, and for the still voice within always guiding you? Here we can let go of worry, follow our inner promptings and trust in the Great Mystery’s perfect unfoldment of life.

Until next month… Blessings to you all,
