Sacred Space

Take a few moments every day to pray. The power of prayer is simply that, POWERFUL!

Talk to Christ every day, share your fears, your hopes, your loves your sadness. Build a relationship with him. Let him fill the spaces of your heart that ache or the parts where you lack faith or trust.

There is so much focus in the media on everything that is going wrong, that it increases our attention and worry. We cannot deny the the pain or suffering of anyone on the planet any longer, but by focusing on the love and prayer we can help ease the suffering of all, no matter how small our offering. Cultivate a daily personal relationship with Christ. Everyday, even right now.Take a moment to focus on your heart. Breathe into the space.Imagine a beautiful flower, perhaps a pink rose. See it open and expand, smell its aroma, breathe it in. Now see the earth, and its beauty, all the countries and people in the world. Acknowledge the pain and suffering of the world right now. Ask God, to send his Divine love to transform the hearts and minds of those who would cause pain destruction and war. Ask for love to be poured into all war zones, to all those in need, all those who are sick, lonely, dying, or in pain. Ask God to fill the whole world with Divine love and grace. Add your prayers and love to. See Gods love flowing down into the rivers and seas, into the animals and plants, into villages, towns and cities. Feel the difference Gods love and mercy are making. Keep adding your faith and love. Fill yourself up with Gods love and know and feel your Divine connection to all. Your  love makes a huge difference to us all. Ask God and the Holy Spirit, to transform and ipen hearts so they may readily see and truly know Gods love and mercy.

 When you are ready thank God for hearing your prayer and come back ready to continue your day.

 Just a little reminder, as you never know who may need the beauty of your smile. I was at a funeral this weekend, and even though it was heartbreaking, there were so many loving smiles shared, and beautiful hugs and tender moments.

That it was impossible not to feel the love and healing shared between people.

So even though it may seem a very simple act.Smiling really is powerful.It really does bring people together even for a short while. Do not forget to share the power of your smile to brighten not only your day but others this week as well. You never know whose heart you will touch. Take time to smile at yourself in the mirror, and check out those pearly whites! Tell yourself how fabulous your are and how much you are loved, then bring that love with you wherever you go.
