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

Inner Sanctuary of Healing
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.
Turn the Other Cheek
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
Be Still and Seek the Kingdom of Love Within
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
The Holy Spirit of Love
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. ❤️🙏🏻
Jesus
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
Born in the Image of Love
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. ❤️🙏🏻
The Way, The Truth, and The Life
When you practice the way
Cosmic truths will be revealed
And you will be liberated from all greed, hatred and fear
But what is the way?
Mercy for our enemies
Both inside and out
Radical non-violence
Turning our cheek to all violence
A complete surrender to unconditional love is required moment by moment
Our heart must be as light as a feather to walk the way
A complete faith in the power of love to guide us
Healing from Within
In this moment
I feel God’s infinite love healing me from the inside
In this moment, there is a deep joy and peace within my heart
A serenity and calming presence within my soul
All I had to do was surrender everything to God
Surrender my fears and doubts
Surrender alcohol and binge eating
Surrender my pride and arrogance
And he gives the gifts of unconditional love and heals my suffering
Bringing me liberation and joy
With gratitude,
Johnny
The Ultimate Reality
You have heard that the good fights the evil
But I say the compassionate, merciful and loving take good care of those who are suffering from hatred, fear and greed
Like a big brother taking good care of a younger brother
Many religious people do not understand the ultimate reality
That good doesn’t fight evil
For fighting hatred only causes more hatred
The ultimate reality is non duality
The light transforms the darkness within us and the world around us
In Christian terms, God with his infinite mercy takes good care of Satan like a doctor taking care of a sick patient. If you imagine a war between these two forces, you have lost everything Jesus taught. Jesus said “love your enemies and pray for those who spite you for you will be children of God.”
This is non-dualism at its highest.
The only cure for the sickness of hatred and fear is unconditional love
If you don’t see the world through dualism; violence, war, and confusion will be inevitable
But if you see the world through non-duality; peace, love and forgiveness is possible right here and now.
Your brother,
Johnny
