Ernest Holmes wrote, “We cannot be in peace until we know that the Spirit is the only cause, medium and effect in our lives.” In this one simple statement I am reminded why I might fret, get confused or feel ill at ease. I don’t really believe that Spirit is the only cause, medium and […]

Last night I had the opportunity to facilitate a workshop on forgiveness. I named it “Why Forgiveness?” Many revelations came for the participants. One of the questions we asked ourselves is if we know that forgiveness is an important process for our well being, why don’t we forgive? Why do we hold onto hurts and […]

This morning I read a beautiful meditation from Ernest Holmes. It was called “Joy Has Come to Live With Me.” I was struck by the idea of mourning in morbidity or seeking Joy as my companion. I realized in a moment of inspiration that I had the ability to claim Joy as my companion and […]

Last night, we decorated our Christmas Tree. My husband, Patrick and I set the evening aside to finally take time to celebrate the Holiday Season, which got lost in the events of the past week with the transition of Nora. As we got ready, all of a sudden, I felt an incredible deep sadness about Nora. […]

“I will follow the Light into the Perfect Day.” If we truly saw ourselves, we would see Light. Many have stated that these bodies of ours are an illusion. As real as they seem, they are made up of trillions of particles of energy being held together by pure consciousness. We are Light in form, […]

If there were a wake-up call I am receiving right now, it is to get our spiritual houses together. That would mean that I invite each of us to find the spiritual practice that works for us and hone it, immerse ourself in it. In other words, be prayed up. Prayer is many things to […]
