As I walk with the homeless
I see the divinity within them
What the world sees as unclean and unworthy
I see through the lens of compassion, mercy, and unconditional love
They are my brothers and sisters
They are worthy of love
As I walk with the homeless
I see the divinity within them
What the world sees as unclean and unworthy
I see through the lens of compassion, mercy, and unconditional love
They are my brothers and sisters
They are worthy of love
Narrow is this path my lord
Stay near me as I walk into the darkness of this world
For you are the light of the world
May I drink with you at your well
The everlasting source of love within my own heart
May I eat with you
For you are the bread of life
O’ Christ
My soul only strives to be with you
And rest within your love
Jesus’s one commandment to his disciples was to love your neighbor
What is your neighbor?
Your neighbor is the poor, sick, and homeless
Your neighbor is the immigrant
Your neighbor is the LGBTQ community
Your neighbor is the pig, chicken, cow, and sheep
Your neighbor is the rainforest and it’s many wildlife
Your neighbor is the Earth
Love them with all your heart and soul
Don’t let fear, hatred or greed keep you from expanding your circle of love and compassion
“I am in my father
You are in me
And I am in you”
-Jesus
When the holy spirit touches our heart deeply through contemplation and inner silence we can become one with God’s love. You may call this Theosis or Nirvana but in direct experience it is pure mercy and love. An emptying of all notions or concepts of fear, hatred, greed, and suffering. Nothing compares to becoming one with God’s love. 🙏🏻
God’s love liberates our inner parts that are enslaved to greed, hatred and fear.
Each day we must return to the infinite source of life and love within our own heart and soul.
A sanctuary of healing within us that is available each moment.
Be still and know.
Many look for the Kingdom of God in Church
Many look for the Kingdom of God in the afterlife
Many look for the Kingdom of God in rituals
Those who look outside of themselves only dream
Those who look within their own heart and soul awaken to God’s love right here and now
A Kingdom where love reigns supreme over fear
The light transforming the darkness within and around us
A everlasting spring of love
A sanctuary of healing
Be still and know
🧘🏻❤️🙏🏻
Let them push you, but do not push;
Let them crucify you, but do not crucify.
Let them insult, but do not insult.
Let them slander, but do not slander.
Be meek, and do not be zealous in evil.
SAINT ISAAC THE SYRIAN
If you focus on the surface of life
Everything appears as suffering
But look deep within yourself and you will see the ultimate reality beneath the surface of life
You will see that at the center of your being and all creation is God’s unconditional love
Take refuge in this sanctuary of unconditional love within your own heart and soul
It’s water so pure
Its love is everlasting and healing
Be still and seek the Kingdom of love within you
When my mind is still through meditation I repeat Jesus’s words and the holy spirit is drawn to me and transforms me into Christ in that moment.
No words can describe this spiritual experience of deep love for all beings.
In those moments you are fully liberated from all fear, hatred, and greed.
You are truly alive.
When the holy spirit is within you, everyone is your brother or sister and you feel a deep river of joy rush through your body. ❤️🙏🏻
God, may all who suffer be healed through your love
God, may all beings be liberated from the shackles of greed, hatred and fear
God, may all beings rest in your sanctuary of unconditional love within their own heart
I pray that we can all be one with your love as Jesus did and still does through the holy spirit
