Ann and I have been praying to God for the

healing of a family member who has cancer,

in hopes of receiving Divine, curative assistance.

Our prayers have seemingly gone unanswered,

and we have entered into a discussion regarding

God’s will, ability, and/or power to actually heal.

 

When I suggested that maybe God does not

actually deal in the dispensing of healing

miracles, since to do so would require an

arbitrary value judgement of individual’s

worth and eligibility for special treatment,

Ann was devastated, pointing to all those

who believe they have received and have

directly benefited from healing miracles.

Why not our loved one?

 

As is often the case, this has sent me back

for further prayer and meditation to decipher

the reality of Divine healing - at least as

presented by the message I have received

on the train, in hopes of unraveling what Ann

and I, you, we, all of us might expect from

God in this regard. I have been posting some

of my insights, but I must admit this is an area

that deserves its own book.

 

About a week ago, in response to my prayer and

meditation questions, I received the inspired

note I offer below titled Healing Belief. I am

often as skeptical as my readers when presented

with such a challenging concept as this note

conveys, especially when it proposes that

spiritual healing is based on the belief, in most

part, of the person to be healed: that is, our faith

and belief that God/Universal Consciousness

has prepared us to accomplish and succeed

at personal self-healing, if we would believe

in its possibility.

 

Of course this is not a unique approach. Many

consider it as a foundational concept of the

original New Thought movement itself. Deep

within my personal consciousness, I intuitively

know that these words expressed below reflect

a valid spiritual reality, and contain an element

of truth.

 

It is hard to dismiss the healing ministry of Jesus,

who was a master practitioner of this belief-based

healing power, healing based on the faith/belief

of the healed. It would be hard to describe the

“Placebo Effect” more accurately than referring

to it as the “Belief Effect.”

 

What if this note is true? What if our own lack

of mind control and belief holds us back from

the miracle of our self-healing potential?

Certainly, to accomplish this level of personal

healing would require a strong and clear

faith-based belief, one that I will continue

to pursue and work to master someday fully.  

 

HEALING BELIEF 

All healing starts from within, understanding

the concept of wholeness, completeness;

realizing that God has no awareness of disease,

malady, physical imperfection, and has equipped

us with the tools to heal without effort, simply

by maintaining a consciousness of wellness,

perfect harmony, perfect being.

 

With our God given tools of regeneration,

recovery, unhampered rejuvenation we declare

the truth of our beingness - we do not become

less, and if our system is injured it is designed

for self-correction, to heal naturally, to return

to oneness, wholeness, wellness.

 

This order, this law of health, is fueled,

powered by our acceptance of it, as well

as our total belief in its truth and plausible

consequence; activated when knowing full well

that no physical condition of deterioration

can exist without our cooperation, without

our support of the opposite or counter belief

in illness, disease, malfunction, demise.

 

Prayers and supplication must be grounded

in the unquestioned belief that healing

is maintained and created in consciousness,

fully loaded for our personal use, powered

simply by our unwavering belief.

As happens to me from time to time, I am

inspired to see my work in a new, or at least,

more ripe or refreshing way. Such is my

epiphany last week, with my realization, 

that what I am, is a “listener,” using meditation

and prayer to commune with my inner connected 

Divine consciousness, asking for guidance, 

sometimes general, other times specific,

and recording what I hear in response.

 

I often think, perhaps the reality of this

note-writing endeavor I chronicle on this blog,

is to carry a message to some targeted reader

or readers, now or in the future, who will use

these inspired words to create positive change. 

 

Yet, most of the time, I intuitively know this is

not my concern, so I record what I hear, possibly

attempt an explanation, then move on knowing

there will actually be, as many translations of the

note as there are readers.

Today I offer a familiar blaze.

 

A FAMILIAR BLAZE 

Finding clarity midst the tumult

takes vigilance, harnessing disparate

thoughts, errant emotions, confused

desires, all beckoning for valid attention,

all worthy, yet all missing the point -

as alternative perspectives collide

and tumble in confusion.

 

Perhaps it is precisely at this impasse

when we must return to our original

purpose, created during more sincere

times, connected times, when effective

trumped all inclusive, when earnest

meant more than comprehensive.

 

With this in mind, let us collect our

thoughts like kindling for a welcomed

fire, a familiar blaze, as smoke gives

way to flame, our balanced restored,

our breath well tended, as once more

we proceed with the tried and true,

heartfelt, and sensible – as our

marker on this journey’s path, ready

and surely able to travel on ignited.

VAST POOL  

Within you exists

a vast pool of love,

sit with it today,

let it nourish you,

this is the elixir,

the fountain of youth,

the healing spring. 

POEM BY G. 8.152013

 

HEART-TO-HEART CONNECTION

In order to build ourselves, to nourish and

expand, we must encourage our positive

emotions, as positive beings these emotions

will fuel our transformation, our broadening

consciousness.

 

Kindness, compassion, empathy, sympathy,

heart-to-heart connection, present in even the

simplest of human interaction, an expression

of our understanding of our essential kinship,

our combined genetic origin, the initial

primordial communal animation.

TENDER ACTION

Be tender, with this life, with your heart,

with others you share this life with, be tender,

watchful not to upset, or harm, or neglect,

capable of being touching and loving, living

with a capacity of empathy, sensitivity,

and caring.

 

Be tender, do not expect more than you

can give, more than you can live, understand

the complexity of conscious existence and

become its champion through tender action.

 

Be tender, reach out into this life with softness,

meek in action, with a deep regard for all who

co-inhabit existence, let go of the negative,

the critical, the self-righteous.

 

Be tender, allowing kindness and compassion

to proceed as the first reaction, the lasting

tribute of your existence.

 

Be tender.

EDEN’S GARDEN

No fear is strong enough to overcome

            you – no doubt ponderous enough

to cause you confusion – no worry

            worthy enough to steal your time –

for you have the power to clear your

            mind, redirect its fretful muse,

enabling it to dwell on the bounty,

            rather than the false scarcity.

 

Tap the power within you to envision,

            to imagine the harvest of your dreams –

lush, ripe, so full, so plentiful it

            would take an infinity to reap –

an eternity to devour.

 

Use your tools of faith, belief,

            and trust to clear the weeds,

trim the bush, and at the proper time

            allow your creation to bloom –

Eden’s garden, fragrant and

            potent with prosperity.

I do believe we each are vibrational beings -

our every thought and action reverberating

through the cosmos, all 7 billion plus of us here

on earth, and who knows how many exist

beyond our limited horizon. 

 

My principal purpose, as I hopefully under-

stand it, is to communicate this message

I have recorded in inspired notes and

guidance, attempting to listen to a faint

voice and hurriedly jot down what I hear.

 

Often, I think it would be more meaningful,

at least more sensible, if I were just expressing

my own vision. Instead, like you, I must attempt

to decipher the meaning.

 

Sometimes there are themes that surface –

for example, when I posted a note titled

Eden’s Garden.  So as I began screening my

unpublished notes today, I thought wish-

fully, that it would be great if I found a

note as meaningful, at least to me, as

the Eden’s Garden message.

 

The next note I selected from the pile of

eligible prospects was recorded in 2011,

a full year before Eden’s Garden, the note

expresses that our spiritual lives provide

the soil to grow our Garden Of Eden,

described as our Heaven On Earth.

 

Could it be that our spiritual Garden

of Eden is not a place where we fall from

grace, but of salvation instead, the place

where through our directed actions,  

we bring the divine to life on earth,

by actually, growing Eden.

 

GROWING EDEN

Our value in this life is not revealed

    by what we do, but truly, by what we feel –

the measure of love we share with the world

    through our pursuit of passion, of meaning,

the compassionate footsteps we make

    in the sands of existence.

 

Our value in this life is our work

    of art, our creation – a vibration of such

force it resonates throughout eternity –

    awakening souls and making God smile –

a masterpiece in motion – calling us to apply

    bold strokes with vibrant colors.

 

Our value in this life is what we preview

    for eternity – providing the soil to grow

our Garden of Eden – our heaven on earth –

          our joyful noise to all creation –

                     so, let us sing, loudly!

BALANCED EXPECTATION 

We must each seek first a balance between

desire and possibility, realizing exact specifications

rarely fit the unfolding being, our concept,

our vision may ignite an immediate spark

setting our world ablaze or instead; just kindle,

smoldering until time, place, and purpose align

at some distant point, an appropriate flame.

 

Immediacy excites our desires as patience

is considered a retardant, slowing progress,

keeping us from our intended mission and

hoped for rewards, yet it is precisely at this

moment when we focus on the outcome

that we set our progress into disarray,

appeasing want rather than sound growth

and forward momentum.

 

Let us set our eyes and focus on the doing,

allowing the becoming to find its pace and

direction, to unfold with Divine and universal

support into the essence of its very nature,

its true possibility, authentic and firm in its

construction, a complete vision of wonder

and magnificence.
