Ego Mania

Ego Mania We elevated ego to the throne of our Heart. It was inevitable. The logical epitome of individualism. What was our glory has become our demigod. Like an out of control bull in a china shop, This usurper of God's rightful place has become Kali. And all the king's men cannot bridle this beast. Shams says, "God's Love has given us what we sought." Sign in to see full entry.

Medicine Wheel Pipe Prayers

Medicine Wheel Pipe Prayers We reconnected after years. Both of us, older, wiser. Seeing new Wisdom, I asked: "Tell me about your prayers when you offer tobacco." "To heaven and earth" [ He said, "Feel the energy from heaven, from earth, meeting in YOUR HEART.] "and the four directions." [ Feel and know that you ARE the center of all creation in every direction. ] Shams prays in this new way now. Sign in to see full entry.

When God Convicts

When God Convicts All religions agree; God is Merciful and Compassionate. Shams wonders about God's Justice and Judgment. How does a loving God correct His Children? Gently, then, if the gentle correction is missed, A dream, then a slap upside the head. Wake up, my lonely traveler, Wake and do not go back to sleep. Great Spirit, Grandfather is calling you to a new day. Be still; and Know that I AM is God. Sign in to see full entry.

Words of a Sermon that No One will Hear

Words of a Sermon that No One will Hear Not often, but sometimes I think I have something worth saying. I start looking for a soapbox. When I find it, I mount proudly, with Bible tightly gripped for thumping. Thus says The Lord: "Stop fearing one another, stop hurting my precious Creation, And... grow up, wake up, smell fear's polution. As for me and my house, we choose love over fear.
