On My Knees Again

On My Knees Again Life is not fair! Sometimes life is cruel. Sometimes life is confusing. Sometimes life is burdensome. These are the times, I find myself on my knees again. Through life’s vicissitudes, I seek Thy face. Oh Mother-Father God, Guide me on Thy Straight path. Use me for the purposes Thy chooses. I seek the Good Red Road, I offer willing surrender to Thee And to Thee, alone. Thou art my guide And closest Friend. Shams says, “Calloused knees Are a sign of Faith.” Sign in to see full entry.

t Your Mother Never Told You

t Your Mother Never Told You Your mother loved you unconditionally, But, she never told you some things you needed to know. She never told you life would be like this. She didn’t know. She never told you That cellphones can be addictive. Now, She has moved beyond This earthly plane. Her counsel was so wise, Her advice, so filled with love. My Dear Friend, keep this wise woman with you In the bosom of your heart. She can still speak clearly When you seek her deep within. Shams says, “Mama, Dear,... Sign in to see full entry.

Pictures Today, we can take pictures anytime, anywhere. Amazing, isn’t it

Pictures Today, we can take pictures anytime, anywhere. Amazing, isn’t it? Videos anywhere, anytime Even a greater miracle. Shams is worrying, Are we losing our ability To capture life’s moments with our hearts? Will our memories be reduced to two dimensions? Listen Friend, life is deeper than that. Learn to hold in your heart, All your precious memories. Hold on only to what is Good, and True, and Holy. Nothing exists outside the Grace of God/dess. Shams says, “Let’s meet at the Tavern of...

Disguised Blessing

Disguised Blessing When life hands you a lemon, Do you marvel at its nature? Do you marvel at its beauty? Or Do you scrunch your face in a sour grimace? Does your mouth pucker with sourness? Or Can you taste the heavenly lemonade? Life always presents choices. In the debate between sweet and sour, Sweetness always wins. Shams says, “Perhaps this explains why Jesus said to turn the other cheek.” Sign in to see full entry.

The Nature of Grace

The Nature of Grace Grace is one of my closest friends. She can read my mind. She knows my heart, She desires my best. She opens doors and closes them too. She blesses me at night while I sleep. She is my defense attorney, And my judge and gentle jailer. She manifests my heart’s desires. We serve the same Great Mystery, Blessings flow where we appear. Together we offer love to all, so dear. Dear Grace, we thank Thee For blessings now; For blessings then; For blessings still to come. Dear Grace... Sign in to see full entry.

The Deep Well

The Deep Well There is a bottomless well Where the Waters of Life Spring up eternally. This well is perfectly hidden In the center of the human heart. No quest will be successful, That searches far and wide. Beloved, seek within Your very heart and soul. The well that all are seeking Bubbles joyful, filled with light. You will see it, even drink its holy waters When you look within. Shams says, “Seek this kingdom first, If you would have it all.” Sign in to see full entry.
