Healing Happens over time......

September 27^th

Sometimes we must visit the same places again and again until healing is complete.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

“So much is birthed in frustration and tension. The distressed and distraught energies may especially show up where the unknown is concerned. Even those places we have visited many times may remain a place of learning.

This fear of rejection, this power you give over to another, sometimes surrendering it to us, over and over, can only reclaim it. Sometimes you must risk that which you fear and dream most in order to reclaim the power you have given away.

With those you love, open your heart. The heart opened is to you first. Then from this deep and profound love and compassion for self, you find your love and compassion for the other. Stand in bold care of self. Stand in fearless love of self. Stand in abundant mercy for self. All else in harmony and order of Divine care and compassion falls from this place. We are with you.”

 My husband and I have had some challenges communicating over the last few months and so we have sought outside help with this. We are able, after just a few sessions, to listen with detachment to one another, respect our differences with more love and connect more authentically. Laughter has been one of our most treasures experiences together and as a result of the break thru in our relationship, we are once again laughing and connecting through joy-not pain. 

Remember there is always hope. Healing does come and joy is not far from the pain when you surrender and seek spiritual connection. Follow the link to explore some offerings that may assist on your journey.  http://www.blessingsfrommary.com/offerings.htm

Frustration, transformation and abundant resources.

Let the barriers and frustrations in your life become the places we soothe and comfort you.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

“This is work for you to do in order to prepare for service in the world. This is the place as you continue to embrace and surrender that you will find yourself over and over again. As the tension and frustration build, so will the intensity of transformation and break thru in your being.

Continue to embrace the deeply felt commitment to serve. This barrier of ego that seems to remain has gifts for you. This barrier becomes your light house as you follow the energy and surrender to Divine transformation. 

This barrier becomes your healing oil and salve that soothes as you surrender to Divine healing.

This barrier is the place in which great healing will occur and the gifts from here will be great as well.

The gifts come from your very own surrender into the deepest wounds of your being and the compassionate, discernment and insight form here will be profound.

We are most present during frustration and deep despair. Bring these places to us and allow the frustration and despair to open a place in which you are able to deepen into transformation and embrace sacred holy ground.

We are here for you. Come to us and let us sit together in this place. Let your frustration become the places in which we meet and hold together that which can only transform with Divine intervention."

My gratitude is great today. I know that when I choose to "stretch" beyond what has been comfortable or familiar, I may encounter internal barriers; barriers that keep me connected to what is familiar and common. It is during these moments when I can do my part only, surrender these difficulty and ask for Divine intervention. It is such great comfort for me to know that I am not alone in my spiritual journeying. 

There are human and divine resources abundantly available to me. Nature will also support and empower my sojourn into the realms of service and contribution. 

 Today I have the courage to utilize these resources. Blessings on your journey.

Honoring Sacred Self

Authentic self love is the greatest combatant to oppression and injustice.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

    Attending to our own Sacredness within is an essential step in living an authentic life of service and contribution. I think most of us want to have a positive impact in the world. Those of us on the journey of spiritual and emotional intelligence seek ways to heal ourselves and then offer healing to others. Most of our religious traditions, even though we may not participate actively today, had a focus on giving to others. Growing up catholic certainly attests to this. As a child, I recall our learning about those who were hungry and experiencing injustice and our responsibility to attend to them. My own family modeled outreach on a regular basis to those who needed assistance in our own community. 

   With this upbringing, there was also a insinuation that focusing too much on ourselves was, well...selfish and wrong. As a young girl our religious teachings and stories were about focusing on others, feeding the hungry and clothing the poor. 

   Today I appreciate the learning I received around these teachings. After all, there are poor among us and having instilled within me a care and compassion for others is honorable. Today, I also believe that we must honor our own sacredness and care for ourselves above all us and from this fulness within, we give abundantly to others. It's still risky for me to say this, however, since some still think this is selfish behavior. 

   While it's not a complete departure from the teachings of my religious upbringing, it is a slight departure and a substantial addition. I believe to truly attend to the needs of another and be of service in a profound capacity, I must attend first to my own physical and spiritual well-being. In doing so, I learn to give from spiritual and emotional maturity, completeness that honors my own authentic relationship with the Divine. When honor the sacredness of self first, my motives are clear. My giving doesn't come out of duress or fear of reprisal but of conscious choice and desire to serve. 

When we honor our own sacredness and give to others from this fullness within, we honor the sacredness of others and the difference we make is most profound. To love self is a courageous act of service for all. 

Blessings on your journey.

Lack, abundance and trusting Diving Source....

There is often a challenge to releasing old beliefs and allowing ourselves to experience, new more empowering belief systems. We must first acknowledge our attachment to what is familiar, even when what is familiar in our beliefs no longer serves our highest good. In this ownership, we then have the ability to release and let go; welcoming beliefs that serve our highest good and provide us the energy to share our gifts and contributions with others.

A sense of lack is a lack of faith. There is no lack with Divine Source.

Wisdom of Mary Magdalene

Hear this now. There is no lack where there is Divine Source. There is no running out of anything where Divine Source lives. There is no lack of money. No lack of food. No lack of time. No lack of energy. No lack of resource of any kind.

Your desire to remain attached to a belief of lack is your desire to remain in control of life and your own self-will. There is no such thing as lack. When you surrender to the abundance of the Source from which we all are connected, you will know this to be true. Abundance will then flow in all ways and flow consistently with lushness and miracles galore.

You must surrender this belief and forgive yourself for any attachment to past. This, too, is how you stay in lack. It is a lack of self-forgiveness, and a lack of belief in Divine plan. As imperfect as you are and have been on your journey, remember that your heart has been given over to Divine Source. We know this. Therefore, you shall claim Divine order and timing in all things.

Believe now in the abundant flow of all energies. Believe now in the Divine order of all things. All things.”
