FACETS OF LIFE/LIGHT 

The gem of life offers

            distinct facets of light,

hold it in contemplation,

            examine its flashes and shards;

 splashes of light,

                        chips of light,

                                    tossing the senses

                        to and fro,

    with clarity,

then explosions,

            then reflective wonder:

know this is the very

            nature of God’s scintillation,

present in every intimate

            and minute detail,

an orchestrated marvel,

            a dance of divine illumination -

                                    focus as you will;

fully recognize that

            each delicate spark conveys

                        one note of a more

magnificent image –

            a truth reflected.

TRUE THANKS

Let us turn our thoughts towards gratitude

today, knowing even our most jubilant thanks

falls short of the true worth of this being,

this existence - no momentary, or even

lasting concern casts a shadow upon this,

our very aliveness.

As we prepare to give thanks, feasting

on our very abundance, let us recall that

we are the hands and feet of the divine

based good in the world, recommitting

ourselves to our scared promise,

to love our neighbor as we love ourselves.

So let us look for our opportunity to

return our favor - an act of random

kindness, a gesture of goodwill, a hand

outstretched in a time of need, a word

of endearing encouragement - knowing

true thanks is best expressed with action

in a world so in need of our compassion.

What a wonderful concept - a holiday where

the primary mission is to be grateful and to

give thanks, offering true gratitude for all we

have been given. I think the Affirmative

Note below sums this up and provides some

additional guidance on how we might expand

our thanks giving.

 

THANKS GIVING

Let us live this holiday of thanks giving

            with true gratitude in our

hearts - fully acknowledging the gifts

   of life, we have been given – truly

     understanding the bounty that

                     surrounds us.

 

Let us live this holiday of thanks giving

        focused on love and kindness

    seeking to make our relationships

      with family, friends, associates –

    and even those we wish to change –

       deeper and more meaningful.

 

Let us live this holiday of thanks giving

      connected with our own Divinity –

            knowing God is within us –

   dwells with us and allows this Divine

           nature to shine through as

     we accept others and ourselves

            as God personified.

 

Let us live this holiday by giving thanks!

GRATITUDE

Let us scan all of our positive emotions today

and choose the most powerful – gratitude –

knowing this sentiment represents our Soul

felt thanks for the sentient life we now enjoy –

grateful for the delicate thread that stitches

the fabric of our lives together into a living,

vital, wondrous form - a Divine thread sowing

a myriad of possibilities and situations into

an abundant, prosperous, and meaningful

existence, allowing us to discover and reveal

our sacred purpose, enabling us to be the living

hands and feet of God in a tangible world –

opening our eyes to the miracles sewn together

by Grace, so significant and thorough that it leaves

no life forsaken – no Soul untouched.
