You Wait Differently

When you understand God is never late, you wait differently.

I saw this quote randomly on Facebook this morning. A friend of a friend’s post that impacted me in an unusual way. Read the quote slowly and see if it does the similarly for you. Did you feel that bump in your chest? That thump thump of remembrance that there’s a higher power helping us when we choose to think, to believe, to remember when we get quiet within?

We get so hyped up these days trying to make things work. At least that’s how it feels to me. People are fearful and doubting and there’s so much unrest, so many emotional frustrations spewing…I guess that’s why I tend to get quiet for long periods of time. I just don’t like to be around those frenetic energies. I don’t care for drama, so I don’t engage.

But this quote: When you understand God is never late, you wait differently – it hit a chord of peace within me so I wanted to share it with you today. I hope it brings you peace within to hold in your heart and allow it to heal.

Our movement towards a gentle understanding is happening. We are at the point of embracing peace within or not. Alway free will, your personal choice. Choose wisely. Be patient. God is never late.

Shine On!

Prayer Does Not Change God

but it changes him who prays.

– Soren Kierkegaard

Do you pray?  Do you meditate?  Do you have faith that there’s a Higher Power in your life that guides you when you listen to your own inner voice?  What are you beliefs?  Do you even know what you believe?  Have you thought about it?

Perhaps now’s the time if you haven’t already thought about your beliefs.  Spend some time today quietly, perhaps surrounded by nature, and ask yourself what you believe in your heart and soul.  Allow the answer to come to you in the stillness of the moment.  Listen carefully and notice what you’re thinking and how you are feeling.  Many times the answers to our innermost questions are revealed when we allow our souls, hearts and minds to speak to us.  Listen with an open heart.

For me, prayer is peace.  Perhaps it was the way I was brought up or how I’ve evolved over the years.  I find when I give my worries up to my Higher Power, Inner Spirit, Universe, God, answers come to me.  Ways are made clear and my Divine Purpose is revealed to me with more detail.  Prayer stops my monkey mind (you know, the anxiety of what to do, the mind that perseverates over problems over and over) and allows me to be at peace.  Not always are the answers to my inner most questions revealed after praying.  But in time, I trust in faith that because the questions have been asked, answers are delivered with Divine timing.  It’s just the peace in being in the Presents of Presence.

How about you?  How do you feel about prayer?  What do you believe?  On such a beautiful peaceful Sunday, I would love to hear your thoughts on the subject!
