Music is on from Cryosleep
Prayer from Today with the help of Sacred Gateway
Taking note of “the Presence of God” – the surrounding cars are a little noisy – busy people rushing from one place to another – in a house alone – had a cup of water … my thirst is quenched.
Moving to some level of “Freedom” … the noise level is coming down. I’m more a ware and yet less bothered. I’m entering a state of being where I’m more ready to listen.
Now it’s just in a mode of “Consciousness” where I can feel calmer – less burdened somehow … perhaps the nap (which I didn’t plan) allowed physical stress to just be released. My head is lighter … feel less entangled within … more space?
the “Word” is before me … I slow down a little more. Mathew 20:20-28.
“What do you want?”
“You do not know what you are asking …”
I sit before my Lord … and we enter “Conversation”
“I seem to have some ideas what do I want? but do I know what am I asking for? In the midst of wanting, I expose my desires and motivations, some noble others unsure, perhaps there are some self-centred, sinful … You show me the cup we are to drink …. I re-examine what I want … and what is REALLY before me…”
I step into a transition under the title “Conclusion”. A conclusion for now this moment where I pause, ponder and pray … entering a moment of contemplation is a moment of grace … and yet, life here and now steps back into the dusty roads I’ll be driving on in a little while … and the grace is not left behind … the presence has not evaporated …
I guess I should try this myself… 🙂 Great post!
Great site – I just did today’s sacred gateway in the midst of busyness, and I can sense the calmness and presence of God more evidently than before. Thanks for your post!
