With Love

WITH LOVE
I love you, Sweetheart. I cherish you.
You are My baby girl.
I celebrate who you are and all you bring to Me and to this world.
There is no one in the world like you: so strong, so gentle,
so creative, so powerful, so vulnerable.
Feel My loving embrace, My bosomy hug.
Let Me hold you close and kiss your face.
Now, let Me look at you.
Yes, you ARE beautiful.
As I look into your eyes, I see all the way to your soul
and recognize the familiarity that meets My eyes.
I see you. I love you. I honor you.
I recognize you. I appreciate you. I celebrate you. Even in this, I AM with you always.

Winding Road

Words to Isaiah 43: 18-19 create a powerful border:
"Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. Behold, I will do something new. Now it will spring forth. I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert."

Grace

In these days, when we hear so many messages of loss and lack, is this not even more reason to practice generosity in the tiniest places? May your hearts be full and your days be meaningful. I am grateful for your presence in my life.
Margaret
p.s. Your stories of grace and generosity are always welcome.

Grace

Don’t wait for an excuse to be generous with yourself and with others.

A New Song

A NEW SONG

Having risen yet again,
the phoenix with feet extended
dances on its tail feathers
to the beat of a new song.

Dancing in the Wind

Dancing in the Wind

There is magic in the air.

It has always been there, available to anyone who sits still enough to notice.

There is no need for drama as you discover how delicious life really is in its most basic essence.

You are whole.
You are complete.
We are One.

Go Gently

Go Gently Go gently into this world, My Love. You are finding new strength, new direction. Like Lazarus, you have come forth. I see you strong, grounded, purposeful, focused, loving and playful, an integral part of All That Is. The dance has begun— the same dance that has always been and will forever be. Let the music fill your heart, your lungs, and be always on your tongue.

Even So

Even So I love you, sweetheart. Dare to BE with Me. Listen for My Voice. Don’t run away. Let Me hold you. You are perfect to me: uniquely you, completely comprehensible, clear, and wonderful. Let Me be your security. I gave you your heart’s desires-- not to tease you-- so that you may experience abundant life.

Wash Me

Wash Me

First, anointing.
Then a breath of time
before external changes appear.
Patience, love.
I AM here with you.
Remember the washing of your fears,
The warm blanket of forgiveness.
I AM indeed holding you.
Feel the energy of My Love surrounding you.

I Choose Peace

I Choose Peace

What would help you move forward gently, steadily?
What would be easy for you to do?
Baby steps, love, baby steps.
This is sacred movement.
No hurry.
One tiny, loving step at a time.
All is well. Trust Me--moment by moment.
Go into laughter, and she will release you.
You ARE moving forward.
You CAN do all things, dear.
ALL things.
Listen carefully.
No assumptions.
What do you hear calling you?

Forgiven

Forgiven

Washed of all fear
Wrapped in a warm blanket of forgiveness
Held in the Arms of Love Close enough to hear Its Heartbeat
Until I remember once again Who I really am.

Anointed

Anointed It is time now to step into your authenticity. Every step you take helps to awaken the world. As you slough off the weight of your past and choose joy, the answers will come. Simply by saying YES you allow all good things to flow freely to you and through you. Treat yourself with respect and tender loving care.

Keep Moving

Keep Moving

Keep moving.
Follow the path of least resistance.
One step at a time.
You can’t get it wrong.
Love is in the air.
It IS the air you breathe.
Breathe in love.
Breathe in life.
All of it.
Inhale the essence of your own spirit.
More than you could ever hope for or dream of
is just around the corner.
Your only task is to be ready.

Remember Who You Are

Remember Who You Are

Listen My Beloved.
Listen in the Silence.
As you become more quiet,
so much clearer becomes your knowing.
I have so much more for you than you can imagine.
Sit still and let Me tell you My dreams for you.
I long to share their reality with you.
Only be still, and you will know.
