A Conversation in My Head-#17
When “Spirit” Speaks I “Listen and Do”!
Peace Be Still! Peace Be Still! Peace Be Still!
Get up Jesus!
Because the winds and the waves shall obey Thy will,
Peace Be Still, Peace Be Still,
Whether the wrath of the storm-tossed sea,
Or demons or men or whatever it be,
The Master of ocean and earth and skies,
They all shall sweetly obey Thy will,
Peace, Peace, Be Still!
Written by: The Rev. James Clevland
Peace Be Still!
This song that I have sung so many countless times in worship, came to mind this morning as I rose from my restless sleep. It seems that I had forgotten the knowingness that no matter what might seem like a hard and immovable condition of what we are experiencing in this country and around the planet, ultimately “Great Spirit”, “The One Source”, “God”, is still in charge of heaven and earth. I cannot waste my gift of life, absorbed and engulfed in the terroristic and demonic behavior of those humankinds that have sold their souls and live in the “void” of chaos and destruction.
I cannot throw away or allow my gifts that I have been endowed with to serve humanity be distracted, blindsided, disrupted, or fall on deaf ears. I will not cast my pearls before swine and withhold the spiritual truths that “Great Spirit” wants us to abide by. There will always be those among us that are disrespectful and willfully ignorant, but that is the “Free Will” that God gifted us.
Each of us that are carrying that soul connection to our Creator, must use our discernment and focus on those willing to listen and recognize the truth of who we are to be and what we are to do that is loving, kind, respectful, compassionate, just and in alignment with our personal relationship with “Great Spirit”! We are wrapped up in this “Free Will Gift”, but we must use it wisely. It must represent the best of who we have the potential of being in every aspect of our life. I am not saying that walking in “Faith”, “Love”, “Grace”, “Compassion”, and “Truth” is easy! The reality of our purpose on this planet is to work at evolving our soul expression as we navigate life and all its challenges.
Think about what you want your life to reflect in this particular time of where you are in your life experiences. Think about the jewels of wisdom and love you have expressed that has touched other people’s lives. Think about the type of conversation you want to have with the “Creator” when you come face to face with humility and grace. Take time every day to have that conversation because we all have eternal access to the “One Source”, that gave us breath and form. Live in your peace while you bring peace to others. Have a beautiful, joy filled, loving, gentle day!
Peace Be Still!
Ashé! Ashé! Amen!
