“ Silence is the fullness of God! The word is complete within the silence. All creativity exists here. This is where the unuttered becomes known. It is where what is not yet become, is revealed and arises.
If we listen we can hear in the silence for the silence is not empty, as imagined and perhaps even feared. It is a vast fullness of awe and wonder where life itself and all being originates from. And all things are possible. And even things we do not appear to know can be found here, prompted by the spirit, entered into with the heart wide open, for this is how creation becomes. It already exists in invisible realms that we can only feel and know when we step into the silence and place ourselves in a state of waiting and listening.
Here we find the tunes of the angels dancing in our souls and the messages of God: the Word alive and aloud and very very present in the apparent emptiness of life yet to be created. This is the exciting joy of revelation, bringing new things into being, greater than we can think or imagine sometimes. For all creation emanates from this profound silence where all is full and yet to be revealed.
Do not be daunted by the normal, the habits or the seeming emptiness of life: the future can be full of wonderful things, new ideas, new thoughts, new knowledge, new creation and gifts yet to come, especially when we enter into silence and there find God, in all His awesome mystery and splendor, revealing beauty unimaginable and joy unbidden.
Sometimes it is better to rely not just on what we know, on what is familiar, but ask for new ears to hear the fullness of God’s heart and new eyes to see what is possible and new, yet to come, that we can create ourselves, with inspiration and trust, with new hope and love in our own hearts.”
May you find comfort,
May you find hope in the Lord.
May you feel His protection always.
May you still feel Him close.
May you know that you are loved, by all the people you have known.
May you feel yourself surrounded by this Love.
May the Lord lift you up now and bless you.
May the Lord bring healing to aid you in your deepest need,
May the Lord comfort you on every step of your journey towards Him.
May the Lord bring light into all your suffering.
May the Lord bring peace and truth into any confusion.
May the Lord be with you and remain close.
Amen
Gratitude is possible, even in the deepest suffering, which must be borne moment to moment. Because the suffering is unfathomable and there is no escape, you need to seek within you and without you for that which is greater than you.
My wife, whose suffering is immense and unfathomable in its depth, says,” To endure suffering you can seek and find God is present and unutterably close. It is through this gift of mercy, of love, of radiance, compassion that I can feel held, loved, prayerful, hopeful and all these are His gifts.
I see Him, I feel Him, I know Him, in the tenderness of love I receive daily, hourly, moment by moment from my husband, who reaches out to me and seeks to pour love into the gap between moments, that I may be sustained and strengthened and not give up hope.
It is this presence of God within and without us and around us that holds us and helps us steer a clear path through suffering and for that gift there are no words to express the gratitude I feel in my heart.
For His love gives meaning. His love uplifts. His love comforts and consoles and is all things to me.”
A prayer that we and many people learn as children is the Our Father, though the depth of wisdom and understanding we now have, in relation to this prayer, were only received through great personal suffering and personal insight. We have only understood the beauty, the power and the protection of this prayer as adults, through revelation, praying it and entering deeply upon a path of suffering with trust and confidence in the truth of the Word of God and as such we want to more fully share this learning, for it is deep and rich and overarching in its breadth. We pray this prayer often when we pray to the Heart of Love. It is a prayer especially helpful for the beginning and ending of contemplation and before other specific prayers which lead to a deepening of prayer life. It enablesconfidence in the protection of Our Lord. For the more deeply we pray, the more spiritual protection we require.
So as we come to pray this prayer, let us open our hearts to the love and the truth and the beauty therein. Let us not say these words in dullness, out of habit and routine. Let us enter fully with faith and more than this, with knowledge that these words truly will protect us and bring us safe passage, through any circumstance, for they are a promise of God with us and the life yet to come. Amen
Lord in your mercy
Tenderly heal me.
Lord fill me with your holy Peace
Not of this world.
Lord bless me
With your healing presence.
Restore me now to full health.
Lord strengthen me
With the Power of Your Spirit.
Ease the burdens that I carry.
Lord comfort me
With Your Tender heart.
Release me from all pain.
Lord console me
With the truth of Your love.
May all Mercy be received.
Amen

Put Out into the Deep
Put out into the deep dear friend.
Put out deep and trust in the Lord
Immerse yourself in His Spirit
For you will then travel a new path,
You will find a new way,
Abundant with Love
Guided by Truth
Inspired by His Wisdom,
For, He says,
My Way is always Light.
My way is always True.
My Way is always Love
And above all, My Way is filled with Mercy.
Therefore feel safe as you journey.
Be of good peace in your heart.
Trust in that which is yet to come.
Be filled with compassion for each other.
My Love knows no bounds.
Remember that I am always with you
And thus, you cannot fail to find me.
So put out into the depth of your own heart, dear friend
And Know that I am with you.
Amen
We Remember August 8th and pray tor all those we knew who have died with this devastatingly severe disease. Always in our hearts.
We remember them with sadness that they are no longer here with us
We remember them with frustration that they were not helpedLove Has Held Me Close
What we have been through
simply cannot be expressed,
So many tortured moments
lived within,
Lived through,
Heartbreakingly borne witness to,
Can never be completely recaptured on a page.
All I can say is that love has led the way
And love has held me close
Even when touch was impossibly hard to bear.
Love has been the guide
And the victor
In a story too painful to fully recount.
Years of fractured moments
Dissolving self into virtually nothing
Have been held together by the brightest spark of hope,
Held high by my beloved
Till helplessness
And hopelessness
Have simply flown away,
Comforted by a warmth of love that never wanes
Or dissolved away with the countless tears
That washed me clean for just a moment
Long enough to feel the truth
That we are greater than any suffering.
Your love remains a tower of strength
In the darkest night
And holds me to each tomorrow
With its golden light.
Comment:
Love is all.
Death has a strange impact.
You cannot quite conceive of a future without your beloved.
You struggle to think.
Feelings overwhelm you
Completely unbidden.
You slip inn and out of past memories,
Trying to process that final moment
Which will not leave your mind
Yet keeps you caught in the greatest grief.
Nothing has changed,
Except for the loss,
Yet everything is different.
The energy has an odd feel.
Time seems to slow.
And all you can see is your love,
Everywhere, yet nowhere,
Trying to cling on to them
Yet needing to move on,
For you are still alive
And they have gone to a lighter place
Still near
Yet lost from view.
Here is a vidro that shares our gratitude for the prayers of others.

The Spirit guides me.
I follow.
I flow.
I dance,
I trust.
I do not know the path
but the Lord knows the rhythm and guides my feet.
All is blessed here on this Holy ground I tread upon,
with His love ever present,
His Spirit shining for me,
showing me the way to go.
May we turn to You Lord, in every moment,
Whether joyful or sorrowful,
Angry or fearful.
May we always find you waiting
And feel safe.
Amen
