Foretelling a Reality Shift

“Faith is our small but necessary offering to any new change or encounter” – Richard Rohr, The Naked Now

The past and the future slip across the screen of our inner eye and we glimpse the comings and goings of who we once were and who we may someday be. While we brave each day with what looks on the outside to be business as usual, inside the storm brews, the winds blow and we wait to see what is left of us when the dust settles.

There is a tension between what we hold onto and what we let go of. Sometimes that grip feels like a shadow peering over us or a lost soul we have to shake off to stay sane. We work our thinking minds overtime with incessant questions. How? When? Should We? If only? Will we ever?

Suspended at the crossroads of reality, life becomes a process of lifting layers off of us. When we rest, the superfluous coverings we have hidden under are slowly stripped away, and we commune with the core that never changes.

The whisper I hear tells me that what will come can not be foretold… only revealed in divine time. But here in the silent stillness of restfulness, insights do rise up and allow us to gently touch what is eternal.

 Can you feel your reality shifting?

 Savor the moment…

Thank you Susan…those words mean so much coming from you! You knew me when I could barely put two words together. I am reminded of how grateful I am for your patience and guidance throughout my early writing years.
