Do not cling to this world
All worldly riches, fame, and possessions will fade away in the end
But God’s love is infinite and everlasting
Christ firmly stands within us till the end
The inner riches of being with God are what satisfy our soul
The outer riches only give us temporary pleasure but leave us hollow
Only his love can give our soul true peace and joy
Bow to your brother’s and sister’s
Bow to the homeless
Bow to the sick and mentally ill
Bow to animals and the planet
Bow to your enemies
Bow to the entire cosmos
Bow to your last breathe
And God will bow to you
And fill you with his spirit of love and peace
If we want to be close to God
We must only strive for perfect humility
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
May all beings find peace today
May all beings be safe
May all beings find rest
May all beings be free
May all beings be joyful
Resting in the inner source of love within their own heart
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
Just as the Earth rotates around the Sun
Our heart and soul must rotate around Jesus and his unconditional love
Every time our eyes drift to anything else
No matter how good it may seems
We lose all peace and joy
We must remain in his vine
And we shall bear much fruit
The world seems to be upside down but do not be distressed.
True love will always overcome hatred, fear, and violence like water smoothing out sharp rocks.
True love does not shape the world by force but through persistence, compassion, grace, and patience.
The light will always transform darkness.
Love will always transform fear.
Do not let this world drag you into the darkness. Focus on the light within you and be the lighthouse shining into the darkness.
🙏🏻

Why is God merciful to us?
Because we are his children.
Born in the image of love.
No matter how lost we are in the darkness of greed, fear, or hatred.
Our essence is his essence.
Our essence is love.
We all have the capacity to walk as Christ did. It’s our true nature that is buried under years of fear.
This is what God sees within us and when his spirit touches us deeply we see the divinity in others and become more peaceful and merciful. ❤️🙏🏻
Be like a mountain
Solid in any storm
Be like water
Formless and adaptable
Be like a flower
Fresh and bloom with the light of love
Be like the blue sky
Clear and free
Be like the sun
Shine your light into the darkness
