I awaken and am greeted with a message of wisdom,
I endeavour to fathom the meaning
I feel grateful, for many years I did not even acknowledge it,
nor comprehend that such a central idea existed
The fog oft times clears and I can feel what is being imparted,
lifes significance becomes more unobstructed
It is good to experience emotion, for this also I owe my gratitude
Lingering listening, it feels as though self love is conceivable,
it is good to know I have support
In turn the love of self helps me to love others,
especially those close to me who have shown me their adoration
Walking through the forest I can feel His touch
through the trees and the life that surrounds me
When I listen closely I can imagine His voice in the song of birds,
his breath is the wind
Why then is it so difficult to put my life in His hands
when I can feel their warmth
There is still so much work to be done internally
before I become ready to meet Him
I must learn to trust more in the inner voice for that
is how he communicates His will for me
My will, the voices I hear in my head, often get me into difficulty
When I am amongst those who do not comprehend Him,
I am often saddened
It is difficult and often lonely the path I have chosen,
for so few travel the same direction
I must not give into the loneliness altering my ways
just to please others
Nor should I go into seclusion if I feel unwanted or left out
For isolation can make me pompous and resentful,
causing me to pass judgement
I need rely on His strength, H
e will do for me what I can't do for myself
Life is often difficult,
and their are many outside pressures
At these troublesome times I need His wisdom most,
I have to separate my duties from His
I do what I need to, I learn to cope and release stress
I attempt to balance my heart, body and mind
so that my spirit may grow
There are so many old thoughts,
the influence of the past can be very cunning and strong
It is sometimes so difficult to hear His message
through all the head noise
I must listen to my heart so I can put my will aside and accept his
The demons of the past, of my own creation,
need be exorcised so I may hear Him clearly
At the end of a day I humble myself,
thank Him for what has been provided
It is necessary for me to feel gratitude for the lessons He has taught me
My humility helps weed out my self will,
gratitude helps me to accept His
If these principles are followed inner peace will be realised,
my state a reflection of my efforts
Serenity is the knowledge that He attends to me
with love that is unconditional
I ready myself, so when my time on earth is over
I am prepared for his everlasting embrace
