Seeing the 'wood for the trees'

 

In life, sometimes the little details can be more of a distraction than anything else, which leaves us overwhelmed. Unable to see the wood for the trees.

>>PAUSE<<

Realizing Divinity in the details is finding the Face of Unity in each individual, seemingly insignificant aspect of something, while keeping track of the entire process.

Walking through this protected forest was a way for me to remember His Face of Unity as a way to help unclutter my mind.

These Dreams

Spiritual life is a response to a call. Of our own accord we would never turn away from the world and begin the long and painful journey home. But Someone calls to us, calls to us from within the depths of our heart, awakening our own deeper longing. This call is like a golden thread that we follow, guiding us deeper and deeper within, always pointing to the beyond. It is both intimate and elusive, for it does not belong to the mind but to the deepest core of our being.

I have never defined dreams in the conventional sense, I have always known them to be something deeper, that pearl in the depths of the ocean.

The next few blogs will be about dreams that I have experienced...

The effort of #patience is to be tranquil despite, tribulation, despite the agony of the weight of trouble.
