There is one
human family that shares this planet.
Although each human is unique, we share the same divine essence of Spirit. This brilliant, creative
intelligence, many call God, exists everywhere in full measure. It works in mysterious and beautiful ways to
move life toward its greatest expression.
The essence of Spirit is love, and its direction is freedom of
expression. Life is filled with evidence
of God’s grace on this planet, from the beauty and power of the seasons, to the
spontaneous smile of a baby.
Just as this
brilliant intelligence is everywhere present, it therefore expresses as me and
each member of this human family. Each
of us linked together yet sometimes very different in temperament, personality,
and life choices.
Thus, this
word of prayer is intended to support family life in all of its activities and
endeavors. Taking care of the inner
conversation that is stimulated by family members, thoughts can be directed to
more gentle ways of viewing ourselves and situations. Remembering to lean into the flow of spirit
as it takes care of all life; there is a sense of calm and well-being that
evolves. And remembering that everyone
has this divine wisdom guiding and supporting them and each can live their own
life accordingly, I am grateful to relax knowing that all it well.
Glad that family creates bonds of acceptance, forgiveness, and caring, allowing each
member to be exactly who they are,
I release this prayer now to that spiritual
activity that has worked out all the details perfectly.
And so it is. Amen
