" The first meaning, guides you, the second meaning, TRANSFORMS, you." Anon. " The wisdom of God, is revealed in, simple things. " Paul Coelho. " The next message you need, is right where you, ARE." Doss.
"My house, shall be a house of prayer, for, all people." Is 56: 7. " Tutti, Tutti." Francis, Pope.
" The gifts of God, are, irrevocable." The gift that you are, just as you are, is an irrevocable gift to the ever evolving story of cosmic, evolution. A revelation, a truth, that is appearing in The Gospel Of The Right Now, is finding life through all your best efforts. All, being the best version of ourselves as possible, is an indispensable, living contribution to the, contemporary Cosmic, gospel. This authorship does not require perfection. Perfection is a disease. Perfectionism is also seen as a coverup for toxic shame. The better we look on the outside, the sicker we are on the inside. As our minds expand, the container of the gospel also expands leading to new revelations ? Revelation bubbling up, not for ourselves but, for all. We are channels. Channels that need constant maintenance, and proper healthy care.
To day we are able to contribute to the power -filled good news, innate in, embraced radically in spite of all imperfections. The real extent of our imperfections, and character defects are revealed only when we have the mercy-full container necessary, for such ego shattering honesty "We do our best, The Creative Creating Loving Spirit, does the, rest." It is our savior, again and again. All efforts are powered by The Presence of The Cosmic Christ. As our minds expand into new awarenesses, so will the theology and the language appear through which we will be, empowered.
Empowered enough so as to be able express the emerging, evolutionary, challenging, Wisdom. A gospel for and of an evolutionary, ever expanding ,life. The authoring of this gospel, of the unseen life will continue into The Eternal Silence. A Silence that we will be continuously drawn into, in, endless eternity. It is a daunting challenge to be a co-author, and at the same time being called to be, "a co-creator, and a co-perfector" (Vatican Two), of this ever expanding reality. Reminder, remember, we are never alone. We are never alone. The wee word we, precluded aloneness Once we embrace the 'wee' word we, word we never again walk alone. " Of ourselves, we can do, nothing.. all things are possible, through Him who strengthens us" Paul.
The strengthening Presence is an irrevocable gift. The Giver has to be faithful to the process of the gifting. To deny , revoke, the gift is tantamount to denying His Covenant, founded, to reveal His unconditioned eternal love for us. In The Lover is found ineffable, acceptance. Way beyond our ability to understand or comprehend. Yet, we are exhausting ourselves in the pursuit of the impossible ? ( What is driving you into the pursuit, of the impossible ? " Acceptance is the answer to all our problems." AA) We still are drawn by The Unknown to plunge the depths of, The Unknowable. To seek the meaning lying beneath the meaning we have discovered, is our destiny. That is also named the spiritual journey. "
The meaning beyond the meaning is, The Meaning , never possessed, yet always being approached That, drawing to, that innate attraction, will NOT cease with physical death. Eternal life is now the continuation of the life first created in the eternal silence, finding visibility in reality, and a reality returning to being reunited with The Creative Eternal Silence. Such is the dignity and the destiny of created spiritual beings, immersed in the sacramentality of the human condition. Spirituality and reality are one, and in that deep oneing, Oneness is slowly revealed.
All that is required of us is to ,make the conscious effort to be as honest as is possible for us, right now, taking into account our immersion in the, wounded human condition. Lets relax and join the truths taught by the schools of spirituality, our efforts will be OUR Best, not the best. We are not "citizens of this world", or eternal home is The Womb Of Love, that is forever drawing us homeward. We are ever and always, homeward bound. Do not settle, make a home in the, what is, ......why?
Every place we are at, is NOT our home. Homes, dwelling places can not be created in fleeting now moment, the nanosecond. The blessing of the nanosecond there is no room for the regrets of the past, or the fears for the future. In spite of the speedy transition of the nanosecond we have still will have to fight the false self, who, ever and always wants to build a lasting home. It expresses its insatiable demands for certainty and security. Scripture warns us about the temptation to find security in created things, " What is seen is transitory, what is unseen lasts forever."(St.Paul) The false self, wants security, certainty, assurance, and will fight tooth and nail to defend its indefensible position.( what battle scars have you to show from this intense, deadly struggle?
Wounded-ness is a gift. It is through our wounds, all the teachers teach, that the light enters. All your wounds are sacred. All our wounds are openings for, Wisdom, to enter. There is no real source wisdom apart from pain, wounds which is the ongoing immersion in the Paschal Mystery. We encounter endless opportunities to be "wounded healers".( Now take some time to reflect where you blessed to be a "wounded healer" ? Is a prayer of thanksgiving slowly bubbling up ?
Where have you found yourself wanting to wound, and did not surrender to the temptation? Where do you need mercy-full compassion for the actions that contributed to the deepening of the wounded-ness of another ? " I am sorry " are three healing words. "I forgive you" are three words you need to hear for your own spiritual health and well-being. You destiny is to be a channel of peace. It is in the giving of mercy and compassion real peace is being channeled, infused, into the wounded universal human body, and the wounded-ness of our Mother Earth. All these actions contribute in a mighty way to an emerging spiritually healthy environment for the birthing of " The New heaven and new earth". Can you see yourself being called to be the mid-wife in the birthing process ? Love, prayers, Papa J.
