God is the strength in which I trust. This is something I have been working on for some time - so, I guess it was bound to come along in these lessons. For a long time, I thought I had to trust in my own strength. This only led to disappointment. I simply could not be strong all the time or even for a very long period of time. As I begin to let go of ego and to 'just be,' I find it much easier to sense the presence of God's, of Spirit's, of Source's strength.
Tonight I had another fine opportunity to attend a Goddess Gathering. Last month the main message from the Goddess I selected was 'quiet meditation.' It was a great daily reminder and was very helpful in encouraging me to continue to meditate regularly.
Tonight the message I received was powerful and sort of scary - "You are a magical person who can manifest your clear intentions into reality." I think it was Marianne Williamson who said that we aren't really afraid of what we can't do; what we're really afraid of is what we can do (I'm sure she said it much more beautifully ). I know that this path I am on is right for me; it is exactly what I should be doing right now. The intentions part has been challenging. Not that I haven't set intentions - I certainly have. They are fairly broad because every time I think about being more specific I get a little scared that I'm not asking for the right thing....my intention may not be right. I think the message tonight is to trust in my intentions, that I do know what they are, and I need to stop being afraid of them.
I feel so very blessed to have shared an evening with six women all looking for inspiration, laughter, support, and camaraderie. The divine was most assuredly present, the strength of that 'divineness' was palpable. The stories of pain, of heartache, of injustice are all catalysts to comfort, and love, and justice.
While I couldn't see the near full moon tonight, I was comforted in knowing it was there....faith.
