When god 'Speaks' to us sometimes we hear it, sometimes we see it, sometimes we feel it, sometimes we taste it, sometimes we touch it. Our presence here in this body, mind and heart through this life is solely for the experience of God, our senses are gifts for experiencing the wonder of this relationship, with these senses we experience God, with these senses God experiences God. The purpose of our lives is for God to experience the fullness of Wholeness through our individuality
"God has no body now, but yours.
No hands, no feet on earth, but yours.
Yours are the eyes through which
God looks compassion into the world.
Yours are the feet
with which God walks to do good.
Yours are the handswith which God blesses the world." St Teresa of Avila
Every single moment of our life is a moment to experience the Divine, Life IS a miracle! Do you see the Beauty, Grace, Truth & Union in your day? If you are struggling in these times to wake and hold the expression of God in your day you will see, feel, hear, taste & touch in on a day that is filled with challenges, a day filled with darkness, feeling alone, sad, afraid, angry, hurt, rushed, confused, you will experience the expression of not enough in and through your life........... not enough time, not enough money, not enough understanding, not enough.................. I am sure you can add some of your own.
Now if you want to awake daily and experience wonder, anticipation, joy, abundance, love, beauty, truth, then all you need to do is BE!!!! What?????????? yes BE!!! Be the wonder of innocence, the excitement of opening only to the best, the faith that ALL your needs will be fulfilled, that only unconditional love, gentleness, honesty and grace will be filling your day. BE the trust & innocence of a child!
It is our purpose here, now to start being the human BEINGS we are and use our bodies, minds and personalities for the Doing part of this life Do, Be, Do, BE, Do!! we have to BE then Do. This link is to an article I wrote last year http://www.beyond-the-body.com/dobedoarticle.htm
after doing a workshop with Professor Amit Goswami he shared this same realisation from a dream he had I knew then the Truth was filtering through to many individuals from various walks of life and put this article out there.

When God speaks to Us!
My life for the past 20years has been consumed with the pursuit of the mystery. It led to a Divine Consumasion December 2009.
Today I am aware of many 'mystics' without monasteries that are lighting the world in this time of darkness. Collectively at the level of ego this darkness is experienced held in tremendous fear, in the realm of the Soul this Darkness is rejoiced as the breaking through the Ignorance, Illusion and Evils ( all the qualities of fear, greed, selfishness, anger, shame, blame, guilt etc) into the Light of Oneness.
On an individual level I see this pain and as I have shared, personally experienced this transition. The greatest gift we can give ourselves in this stage of the process is the Faith, Trust and unshakable Belief in a force much bigger than our small selves can comprehend, and fall to our symbolic knees, and breath fully into Surrender.
Even after our encounter with this depth of Surrender & Knowing in God as the Jewel, life will still present challenges the difference now is the Grace with which we experience these challenges, our purpose is only finding ways to be of service to God. I was thinking to add a prayer from Teresa of Avila that refers to Being Gods hands, feet etc then as I am sitting here someone has just pulled up in their car and is playing this song
NO Matter What By Boyzone I trusted that maybe if I listened the message to share with you was here. the song was at these words:
If only prayers were answered
Then we would hear God say
No matter what they tell you
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach you
What we believe is true
And I will keep you safe and strong
And shelter from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born
Thank you God! I will share Teresa's prayer later
with loving blessings

Stopping the struggle
As I let go of the struggle, as I surrendered to a life that I could not fathom, the possibility of being in a world without my child, allowing the possibility of this to fully fall into my being, I heard many thoughts move through my mind. The guiding voice inside softly spoke with a gentleness that could do nothing but fill my whole being with peace. It asked me "why should you not be a parent who lives a life with the loss of a child? why can this be a burden others may have to carry and not you? why must it be that your life does not carry such great loss?"
As these questions fell into me from this loving presence, I witnessed the separation that created the fears I carried in the smallest human self that in this moment felt desperation. As I breathed into this Truth the fear subsided, the peace that prevailed was so tangible I knew nothing would be lost in either the life or ending in this realm of that life. I fell into a sleep so peaceful, woken by a call from a family member full of fear after receiving a call from this lost soul in her darkest night. I heard myself reassure him, then gently fall into a deeper, peaceful sleep. I was woken by a knock in the very early hours, I was needed, I said NO, I could not go, again was pulled into a deep and peaceful sleep. I know now I was in a place, only accessible through total Surrender to God, I had fully gotten out of the way to allow Thy Will Be Done! If I had acted from any of the fears as a parent in this night, the outcome would have been very different.
That night, I was not with her, by the grace of God she was guided to a part of herself that I as a fearful parent could never show her. My most Holy self, 22years on from the ignorant, frightened, separate human, had reached so far into the Light of Gods Love that in that act of Faith, Trust, Surrender, she was able to make her own contact with God, me out of the way! We have our children, they are not ours to own. Each and every human on this planet has a promise to God to BE the presence of God on our earth. Each of us can only BE our divine promise when we are left to feel the deepest truth of that, alone, in the pain of our illusion that we are separate from God and our eternal divine self. .
This journey of healing may look like that of the child you are reading about, it is, but more fully, it is my journey to God, releasing all my fears, Trusting in a plan bigger than I can ever imagine. You who are reading this are all on your own journeys. Remember this: when you are so entangled with someone elses life and pain, it is time to start to look at your own! It is not your job to save them, it is your DUTY to show them!
Call upon Paschar to give you the Vision to see and Be from your highest Self, call upon Uzziel for the Faith you require to Trust, Surrender and to come into Unity with your Highest purpose.

The search for Love
Our hearts must break so fully to begin our journey to our ultimate Self. Looking back I can see the truth in all the spiritual cliches' that have passed through my life as teachings of the Way of Love ............ The Truth will set you free........ All you seek is within you............. You cannot Love another until you can Love yourself! I am sure you can add many of your own or you are beginning to recognise these spiritual slogans in your own journey?
I was watching a film the other day and there were many of these one liners but one that stood out the most was "You must first forgive your self to Love the world". Now here in this space on my journey I know this is a Truth and this has been my journey to really creating life. All the 'products' out there that are coming into the mass consciousness now to 'Create Abundance......Prosperity......Your dream life" aren't taking you to this truth. Without our inner journeying to Forgiveness of self there is no Real abundance.
When I was a young 25year old, and I mean young, looking back I was so emotionally immature I had no concept of the selflessness required to create another human life, it was something that just happened to me, as the rest of my life then, or so I believed. Life happened TO me not THROUGH me, that's what I thought. I sought someone or something outside of myself to make me feel better, to love me enough to take away the pain of not loving myself enough and in this search externally for love, I neglected the life that was growing inside me. This child growing inside me was the only thing I needed to Love unconditionally, in this act I would have been loving myself so deeply, but I was too asleep in my own darkness to know this. So 22 years on, a journey so complex led to a Love so great that as I forgave myself for my ignorance, my pain, my sadness and fears so my child began to heal. She was able to feel the unconditional love that was absent from the moment she was conceived. As I learnt to Love mySelf fully she began to found Love inside her own self.
What is the point of material abundance, accumulation of stuff in our lives if we cannot create an abundance of peace, joy, love inside our own self? No amount of things in life will bring you (or me) any of these qualities. They are not brought to you, they are brought through you to have first for yourself then to share with all those others you come into contact with.
We must go through a journey of forgiveness to find these qualities. As we set out we may first believe our life circumstances and all those who have passed through it are what we need to forgive for all the pain we believe they have caused us. When we are still feeling separate, alone, isolated & lost our external world feels like it is Doing its stuff to us. Maybe it is having you feel someone betrayed you, hurt you emotionally, physically, psychologically? We must have the courage to let go of the anger, blame, hatred, sadness for these things.
Forgiveness is one of the steps to inner peace, as hard as it may feel to let go of the 'wrongs' we believe have been inflicted upon us, we must have the courage to seek this. If you are struggling at this time in the midst of chaos, pain and turmoil through what someone has done to you there is help at hand, literally!
We have so much loving support in the ethers, our angelic guides, our personal guardian angels, and a host of angels working with loving energies to carry us through, but the first step is to call upon them. Call now Cerviel the angel of courage to fill you with his loving presence to BE the courage you need to take you into forgivenss. Call upon Stamera, the angel of Forgiveness to help you see and find the understanding in them as opportunities for you to move closer to the Love you desire.

So, Where did it all begin?
I know now this conscious journey began in my own darkest hour, some years before I had given birth to the beautiful child who would carry so much of my own torment, so much of the generational heritage of pain, separation, fear with all its 'coping' stratergies, plus all the wisdom, courage, love and faith that many of my ancestors held. Our journey together has been to heal the pain and illusions and embody the joys of Unity. My child was also a magnificent Soul with its own wisdom that had agreed to come alongside and work towards healing in this world, my task was to remember this Truth in her.
My breaking open began to happen in the summer of 1986, a journey I took would be the moment that broke me open. The pain of this time consumed me, I was plunged into my own utter darkness, madness and sense of loss so deep I was in so much pain physically, emotionally, mentally. BUT even in this I remembered the quiet voice that had been with me since as long as my memory in this life could recall.
I began remembering I KNEW so much as a child, had questioned, knew a Love so great this life couldn't fill me....... So I thought! Had I known this journey would have taken 20years, so much challenge, confusion, anger, fear, sometimes rage, would I have started??????? I now believe there was no choice, choice didn't exist at this level it was just a matter of existence, evolution, growth. There is no way any of us can avoid our own evolution, we can close our ears, eyes, hearts and anything else we have to close, but............. it happens, in time, in this life or our next or the one after we cannot stop the natural movement of growth that is our intrinsic nature............. Our growth back to Unity.....Divine Unity.
If you feel you are journeying through the darkness of illusion, call to Shekinah the Angel of Unity, along the way you will meet many other angelic assistants. As I am writing and as they present to help us all through I will share them with you. For now I leave you with Raphael to hold you in your healing.
With Loving Blessings to you all

Let Go, Let Love, Let God!
The day unfolded unbeknown to me how it was going to go. I suffered the usual stress of not knowing how she was today, the pain of wanting peace to prevail in her heart.
Sometime in the evening the calls began, I spoke lovingly, but firmly, all that was unfolding was just as it was meant, I had to get out of the way! I spoke "I love you, take care of yourself and I will be with you tomorrow". The response in her fear was anger, words to hurt, to scare, to pull me in. I hung up!
No more thoughts entered my head, most of you, as I would have in the past must be thinking how! How can you leave someone in this pain? What if they die? These were the words behind the forces of fear that had been consuming me for the past 3 years. The time had come to Surrender fully & completely.
I handed her over to a Love and plan so much greater than mine. In this moment I was Being Faith in God. How could I speak that I had faith, trust, connection, then in the most challenging of times in my life have fear in handing this enormous challenge over to the God I proclaim I unshakably believed in! I put my baby's life or death into the Heart of what we call the Divine.

Nondoing - Trusting my Soul!
I was filled with a faith and trust so full there was no doubt. My mind chatter spoke with me, "you are saying that you are willing to let her die! how can you as her mum?"
I knew that if she chose to die, it was in perfection with a plan so huge there is no way my small mind could comprehend. I felt so peaceful, so knowing that even in my loss something would be found. All I had tried to do over the years to 'save' her had led her further and further into chaos, pain, utter madness! It was time to get out of the way and let go. Let God!! I jumped! no infact I didn't. This day to the moment just unfolded with me looking on as though through a window into some other world, someone elses life.
