Bloated Nothingness

"Let us get our bloated nothingness out of the way of Divine Circuits." - Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Okay, there you have it - my New Years resolution, prayer & cry!  Dear God, Divine Perfection, Great Mystery - starting right now, in this very moment, may I get my bloated nothingness out of the way of Your eternal Perfection in all things. Talk about being set free!

Signs of BLOATED NOTHINGNESS


1. The inability to laugh at oneself.

2. The belief that everyone else is wrong.

3........or even that someone else is wrong.

4. The thought that you cannot be this until you have that.

5. The idea that you know more about someone elses life than they know about their own.

6. The idea that another person has to become something different in order for you to be happy.

7. In your vocabulary there is often these words heard: You should, I know, I want, I have to, You have to, Do it this way.......................................

8. You think your way is the only way.

9. You talk more than you listen.

10. You find yourself listening more to yourself, than discerning through Spirit.


I don't know abut your bloated nothingness, (chances are pretty good they are close in nature!) but mine can pop up at the most unusual places. In places that have nothing to do with itself - like your opinions, your thoughts, your ideas and your life style. My bloated nothingness thinks it has a say with your life. Imagine its audacity and humbleness when it finds out it has no more illusion of power to stomp around thinking it is, or it knows, or even that it exists at all!

I give it credit though, for nothingness it sure can be loud. This bloated nothingness can herald in my mind like 76 trombones about the most unimportant things! (Like why did you leave your sweater here, why didn't you take it upstairs, why did you say that? Why are you not thinking like me?...blah, blah, blah...) And in my years of this life experience, I have discovered through very finite & credible investigation that bloated nothingness loves to attach itself to the past, to what was. It is so full of nothingness that it sucks upon the past as if it is important! This bloated nothingness can tell stories in grand style, stories of what was and it can make you believe it will be that way again!  This bloated nothingness feeds upon the tinest, weakest speck of  *&^&^%$ and feeds it until it breaks out if its cage and can feel like slime throughout your heart and spirit! For nothingness it can sure weigh you down and cause you to doubt your own good. And the most amazing thing about our own bloated nothingness is the more we pay attention to it, the more space we think it takes up and this gerbil wheel of nothingness cranks itself up to high speed until we fall to our knees and say 'enough!'.

So, I invite you to join me in this New Years resolution to allow, yes, allow, with great faith in the yet unknown - to allow yourself to step out of the way of your bloated nothingness - that's it, simply step a bit to the left,  a bit to the right, go ahead, like a swift cat bravely take the slightest curve in a new direction and get out of its way - and INTO the way of Divine Circuitry! That's it, step from one lane into  another, from one thought to another, from one breath to another - go ahead, with intention say no to your bloated nothingness and say yes to the flow of Gods Goodness and Grace to pour through you. Go ahead, step right into Divine Circuitry and let the electric shocks of God love and immensity take you for the ride of your existence!

In this New Year may those who consciously choose, be magnified through the allowing of Divine Circuitry - passion, faith, joy, health, peace, kindness, hope, creativity, wealth, abundance, laughter, lightness, wisdom, Spiritual partnership, strength, courage........to all the good the Universe has prepared! 

with my love & Spirit filled blessings of all that you can possibly dream -

Deborah

Seasonal Greeting

Dear Beloveds;

From deep in my heart I greet you, hug you, wrap my arms around you - smile at you, witness you & feel your presence - welcome to another day.

We must always be reminded that nothing is against us - that God is all-ways for us. It is Spirits undeniable calling which rustles up the uncomfortable-ness and beckons us to call upon the attributes of God which will relieve us from our own disillusionments.

I know a man whose wife is dying. I sit with her and her light is so very bright, her presence of faith is palpable in every word she speaks. She is present with family, friends, and hospice support. Despite her earth walk; her mind is attached to faith in Good, to gratitude for this moment she is being given, to the love which surrounds her. Yet, he, her spouse; is filled with rage, anger and fear. He cannot be in a room with more than two people. Through immense vibration, his heart is forced open by the love in the room! Because his heart is so filled with anger, grief and rage at God, when he is in the vibration of so much love - he runs; his body, his pain is forced to be felt - for anything unlike the Light is released unto the Universal Presence - and all that will remain is the Love.

It is the releasing, the transitional time, the transformational process - those moments where if there is resistance - we will experience struggle.

It is always during this season of Light, this time of year when many are aware of the Love of the Creator - that darkness - or simply that which is not of God - is seen. It often is this time of year when family pain, conflict of the heart, struggles of the path are seen so clearly. The vibrations of the Light; the strength of Love shows all that is unlike Itself. God calling upon God.

And it is in these very moments; in these times of conflict when we can say:

“Lead me to The Love in my Heart - Lead me to that which is greater than I - take my hand and relieve me of any burdens - Spirit of Light, Divine Consciousness, I say yes to unconditional Love, I say yes to Faith in Goodness, I release control and choose You. I let go of fear, I discern from my heart center, I know the Light of You is in every cell of my being – I affirm the Light of You is in the cell of every being I know. I open to You – I am seeing, feeling and being in this time of transformation because You are shining so brightly! I am feeling this conflict, this pain, because You are calling the You within me – and in this very breath I get out of the way! I allow the God outside of me, to merge with the God within me; and through this at-one-ment I am healed. I am whole in this moment. I am knowing, feeling, aware of Your Divine Presence of Light – and all who are around me can see this, all who hear my voice can feel this – You! I thank you sweet Spirit for this moment of revelation – for revealing Yourself through me, through this experience of Oneness.”


God Blesses You - you are the Light of Spirit-
Deborah
