” What things so ever you desire when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you shall have them.” Mark 11:24

No vagueness, no confusion

No mystery at all

Believe that you have it

And have it you shall

Instructions for living

Guidebooks, if you please

Live them, embody them

And Life flows with ease

Like seeds sewn in Spring

With promise of yield 

The Harvest that follows

We see in the field

Released from the worry

Set free from the strain

Just focus your thinking

As now you entrain

Move forward with certainty

Navigate each turn

Your job is to listen

To trust, to discern 

Your life’s an adventure

Unfolding through time

Set clear intentions

You’ve mountains to climb

With calm, centered certainty

With unlimited Trust

Hold pictures in Mind

And have it you must

Life is for living and giving your All

Life is for shining and answering the call

Life is a choice we made long ago

Life is a stream that All Ways will flow

No vagueness, no confusion

No mystery at all

Believe that you have it

And have it you shall

It Is So and So It Is 

Peace & Blessings

” The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside the still waters.  He restores my soul.” Psalm 23:1-3

Awake to the Truth that we are all One 

I rise up and claim my reward 

Alive to the Heaven of Love that I Am 

My life does unfold in accord 

Ablaze as the Light of Divine ever shines 

I give it free passage throughout 

Awake and renewed to the All that I Am 

My life now is turned inside out 

Aware that we dwell in the house of The Lord 

I gaze deep in wonder and awe 

Allowing Divine to be All that I Am 

My life now a picture of Law 

The Lord is my shepherd, the Lord is the Law 

Upon which this tapestry’s spun 

Green pastures abound, Clear waters flow free 

Restored to the Peace of the One 

It Is So and So It Is 

Peace & Blessings

“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding… And could you keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life, your pain would not seem less wondrous than your joy” Kahlil Gibran

I Wonder at the Glory
Of every dawning day
I Wonder at the Sparkle
The jewels of dew display

I Wonder at the Miracle
In every new-born child
I Wonder at the Magic
Reflected as they’ve smiled

I Wonder at the falling
Of Earth-enriching rain
I Wonder at the tears
That spill as we feel pain

I Wonder at the passing
Of walking through the veil
I Wonder and I pause
For losses that prevail

I Wonder at the Opening
Of every fragrant bloom
I Wonder at the Peace
It brings into a room

I Wonder at the Brilliance
Of diamonds in the night
I Wonder at the Calm
Of seeing such a sight

I Wonder at the Feelings
That overtake the heart
I Wonder at the Passion
That pulls us from the start

I Wonder and I’m Thankful
I Wonder and I Know
I Wonder and I’m Glad
That Wonders ever-show

WonderFULL
It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“Let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.” Khalil Gibran

I’m Spacious in my living 

I’m Gracious in my home

A living, breathing Temple

From whence I will not roam

I’m Open & Receptive

I’m Listening to each word

For God, the Good is speaking

There’s Loving to be heard

The winds of Heaven dance now

For Love is not a bond

The Sea of Bliss is moving

The shores of Soul respond

I’m Thankful for the Wonder

I’m Joyful and I’m True

A Miracle unfolding

This is my point of view

I’m standing on the mountaintop

I’m living Life upstairs

A mansion of Infinity

Forever, answered Prayers

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“Keep close to Nature’s heart… and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.” John Muir

Standing on the mountain top

Sailing with the breeze

Walking in the forest

Sitting under trees

Rolling in the meadow

Spinning like a top

Weaving flower garlands

Watching petals drop

Jumping over rainbows

Skipping stones on lakes

Diving into ocean waves

Doing double takes

Living in the moment

Taking time to feel

Breathing into all of life

Opening to the Real

Keeping close to Nature

Breaking clean away

Climbing, diving, opening

In a Heartfelt way

Spirit clear and clean

Breathing Free again 

Eyes wide open, WonderFULL

Love, our constant friend

It Is So and So It Is

So Be It

Peace & Blessings

“Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily; and thy righteousness shall go before thee: the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward.” Isaiah 58:8

I revel in the Beauty 

Of God’s own handiwork 

It’s painted in the morning sky 

It’s everywhere I look 

The verdant green is glistening 

With sparking diamond dew 

The golden rays are warming 

The sky now cobalt blue 

The birds on wing are soaring 

Inviting me to rise 

From golden-threaded chrysalis 

Emergent butterflies 

I’m bathing in this atmosphere 

My body charged with Light 

My senses are revealing 

Life’s rarely black and white 

Rather, it’s a tapestry 

A colorful, fine weave 

Providing opportunities 

To Demonstrate, Believe 

My body temple vibrant 

My Purpose drawing near 

My thoughts in step with God, the Good 

My Life, becoming clear 

The Lord, the Law of Life itself 

Is surely my reward 

Its rhythm set in motion 

Before time struck its chord 

I’m pulsing with the Spirit 

Peace is my state of Mind 

I’m led on paths of righteousness 

With Love I am aligned 

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“We are here to awaken from the illusion of separateness” Thich Nhat Hanh

Born of Infinity
Never alone
Destined for Greatness
Love’s healing tone

Destiny’s children
Ever-aware
Knowing the Goodness
Life’s Love affair

Wake from illusion
Separate, we’re not
Threads of a tapestry
Love-woven Thought

Ever-connected
Breathing this in
Peace at the center
Love’s next of kin

There’s no beginning
And there’s no end
Time, nonexistent
Through Love transcend

Ever-unfolding
Joy, tried and true
Seeing with new eyes
Loving anew

Eternal BEings
Waking again
No thing is separate
With Love begin

It Is So and So It Is
So BE it

Peace & Blessings

“Let us love one another: for love is of God: and every one that loves is born of God, and knows God.” I John 4:7

To wake every morning and Love who you are
To Love everyone just the same
To know God is Love and that Love is God
To Light up the world with your flame

To walk in the world as an agent of Love
To greet everyone with a smile
To know Love is moving through all that you do
To dance and to sing all the while

To remember Love when the shadows appear
To stop and to breathe, shift your gaze
To direct your mind to the Mind of Love
To open to Love’s healing rays

To Love one another, you first Love yourSelf
To give Love, you first must receive
For God’s Love is pure Love, unconditioned by time
To be born of Love, just Believe

To believe in the One Love that’s given to all
To walk in the world fully Known
To be born of Love, untethered and free
To live life on Love’s cornerstone

It Is So and So It Is
So BE it

Peace & Blessings

“Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself.” Matthew 6:34

Abiding in the Present
Standing in the Now
Washing in the Infinite
My focus, to Allow

Breathing in and Breathing out
Holding Peace within
Opening, Receiving
Here’s where I begin

Right thinking is my Power
My Practice, staying True
My mind aligned with One Mind
Provides my point of View

Trusting well the guidance
Wasting not one thought
Worry robs me blind
And blinded, I am caught

Caught inside a wall of fear
Caught without a Light
Caught inside the darkness
Caught without clear sight

Breathing in and Breathing out
A flame is struck within
A Light dispelling darkness
In Truth, I stand again

The morrow takes thought of itself
The Present anchors it
To Feel the Peace and Love of One
To this thought Now commit

For in the Field of Goodness
Is Spirit seeking me
Each moment I abide there
Are moments I am Free

Free to live on Purpose
Free, Magnificent
Free of doubt and worry
God’s Holy instrument

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

” Miracles do not happen in contradiction to nature, but only in contradiction to what is known in nature.”   St. Augustine

I open my eyes 

I see the Real 

I expect the best 

I love and feel 

I open my ears 

I listen in 

I hear the voice 

I now begin 

I feel the touch

Of  gentle breeze 

I pause, feel more

It Breathes in Peace

I refresh my view 

On the Life I know 

I stand in awe 

I let it grow 

Miracles happen 

All around 

Expecting them 

They are easily found 

It Is So and So It Is
