Read these two things today and they moved me in my heart, so I HAD to share :)
1)
May you become the best you can be.
May the light illuminate your oneness.
May you realize the light which is the oneness.
May only what’s better to be happen to you.
2)
Resistance comes in many forms: Texting, sex, eating, procrastinating, watching TV, meeting up with friends, and many other undercover outfits...sit down and do the work...day in and day out. When you fail, learn and keep working. Enjoy the soreness of the blows you may have taken the day before.
Do it for the day to day, for the sheer act of doing it, not for the outcome.
It's been a while since I've written and after glancing at the last few posts - I felt like writing something a bit deeper tonight. The amount of variety in my life has tripled, similar to my discovery of the existance of purple, yellow and white-ish carrots.
If you are new to my blog, this is how I do it.
Sometimes I have a lot to say, and other times I haiku.
Either way, I only write when I am inspired,
so if you are looking for a daily read, I may not be able to deliver.
However, if inspiration and stimulation is what you seek,
look no further and subscribe right now. ;)
Life is fantastic.
I look back one year and smile thinking of how grateful I am for the place I am in right now - mentally, physically, spiritually. Last year was bumpy. Change was not easy. Choices were tough and tests were being dealt out like pop quizzes daily. But I survived. I may not have aced it all, but I am happy to report that today was a good day.
In fact, the last three weeks have been nothing short of incredible.
Since I found my home at the Rock Church six months ago, my life has taken a turn for the better and I can not be thankful enough. I say it everyday in my mind and under my breath, while covering my heart with my hand and breathing in slow, deep breaths. I thank Him for being with me.
"I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13
I've been reading the Bible, start to finish, and in the very first book - Genesis - I read about the meaning of a rainbow.
Seeing this picture, taken in downtown San Francisco today, I couldn't help but think of this:
"When the (rain)bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”
Genesis 9:16
He's got our backs. Whether you believe in Him as a man in the clouds, the divine trinity, maybe a breeze blowing by, or a song that plays on repeat in your head, He is with us.
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."
Matthew 7:7
I pray daily for my DJ ministry, and He continues to provide for me, kicking it off with a set of turntables, followed by a club quality mixer, a shnazzy program called Serato, which will surely work a little magic in my learning process BUT most of all - I have been blessed with a teacher who is His most faithful servant and continually leads me to be a better Christian by always accrediting everything to God's glory.
I am so moved by the intensity of the progress happening in my life, that I can only offer myself to Him and give back everything equally to Him. He is my rock. Yet He is also my flower. I must keep my flesh out of the way and let His spirit continue to lead me. I am very passionate about what's happening in my life, but I am also keen on the pauses.
He will lead me there - never early, never late - only right on time.
Just like the music of Miles Davis, pauses are just as important to the completeness of the song as are the individual notes.
Thank God for being within us, for always loving us by grace, and for giving us the language of music to communicate our gratefulness with Him.
