I do not do what I think Financial Advisors, Authors and Motivational Speakers are suppose to do according to this world system, I enjoy basking in Silence. God speaks so loudly and clearly in the Silence. Amazingly I can hear with all the other thoughts floating on the river in my mind.
The saying “The issue is in the tissues” really speaks to me. I recently heard author “James Finlay ” in his book ” Palace of Paradise” say that being gentle, compassionate and forgiving of the false self (ego) is an expression of the True Self. God never berates me for my missteps. He picks me up and comforts, strengthens and encourages me. Surrendering myself to God, I nurture my love for others, This is the fruit of Solitude, I am intrigued by God always directing my day in every moment as long as I consent.
Contemplation is true action with gentleness, compassion and forgiveness being poured into me when I quiet down and RECEIVE the healing for the issues in the tissues.
Thank you. This became my morning meditation. Is my True Self me? or God? or both? Thank you for the reminder and permission to take a moment of silence and receive the blessing of that moment of peace. I don’t have to feel bad that I’m not running to do more and finish everything in MY plans.
Yesterday I had a conversation with a friend checking in on me explaining I needed a break from listening to people so I can hear more clearly from God. And this is what I was attempting to let her know-
“I enjoy basking in Silence. God speaks so loudly and clearly in the Silence.”
Amen
