You, Me and the Holy Spirit

Rev. Terese Ward

image Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace and be healed of your disease. (Mark 5:34)

Yes. Life is as faith is.  It’s all about faith. Faith heals all mistaken notions and we learn truth through faith.

One way for me to witness to this truth is to share with you two weeks of my daily morning writing with Holy Spirit. I believe that you’ll agree that Holy Spirit is the Great Healer.

4/15/10 — Holy Spirit goes before me, making straight, easy, correct, safe and peaceful my path, to the good of all concerned. “Stay present with the Presence.”

4/16/10 — Holy Spirit thank you for this time with Leta and for all it brings forth for the good of all concerned. “Just BE, Therese, just be present.”

4/17/10 — “Into this paradise, I’ve placed you; learn joy.” Holy Spirit, show me the way in service to the Grand Plan, for my good and the good of all concerned; that I live, work and be in the Peace of God, Love and Joy.

4/18/10 — Back in January, my friend Leta, invited me to come spend time at “the Farm” in Oregon, her treat. I cried tears of “if only I could.” Grieving the death of my husband of 50 years, I felt so alone and fearing the unknown future.  “If only I could” beat within my heart. I thought ahead, April 14, would be the one year anniversary of Dan’s death; April 27, my sixty-eighth birthday; April 4, Easter.  Within the longing to find inner happiness again, the thought came “I could, if I only would.” I could if I only would! Yes! I decided I would accept Leta’s gracious offer and visit her from April 15-22.

Through the power of that decision, anticipation began to fill my work of preparation for the journey. I declared: This is going to be a journey of transformation for me. Time to release the past, forgive the past, give thanks for the learning gifts of the past, turn the page, step through the door into my new life which was before me to create and live.

This morning standing on holy ground, at the farm, at the river’s edge, Leta, my soul sister at my side, I cried tears of Home — Love’s Home — Open Heart Home, Joy’s Home, the Peace of God’s Home. Sweet Home, Oregon, Home Sweet Home.

In that moment my heart opened the latch from its mourning room and stepped out into a garden paradise. “I have placed you in paradise; Play.” Transformation was happening in the power of two gathered with the Holy Spirit in the name of Love.

Through the tour, the walks, the meals, the talks, the silences, the laughter, the memories, new possibilities arose, new visions came; imagination’s creativity was alive again, truly risen from the dead, Easter was happening in me.

Walking at Soda Creek, I knew I could live again in happiness for that is just what I was experiencing; Present happiness welling up in my whole being.

Transformation had happened quietly inside and spread it’s wings in joyful gratitude in this now Presence in all the forms of Love’s Presence. I know all these beautiful forms are impermanent yet I hold them sacred, and it is the Love Source behind them, which co-created this that I feel Oneness with. It seems I have come Home to this Oneness; the prodigal is Home again and gratitude leads all the other gifts of Spirit in my heart. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

4/19/10 — “Play, love, laugh, and learn.  Let your life be play; become as the children, thus is the Kingdom of Heaven. Let what you love, be the work you do. Labor not in your works, for My manifestations are effortless play of the children. By your works I will be known, you will be known.

4/20/10 — “I am with you always. Now, here, is the only life there is. Present moment matters; thinking makes it after its thought. What are you thinking?”

I think I love you.

I think I love life.

I think all is well.

I think I am at peace.

I think I am grateful.

I think I am a co-creator with God.

I am, I am I am.

4/21/10 — The people in our life, present and past are like flower blossoms; different color, different shapes, different sizes, different fragrances, different stages of opening up, yet all a flower unfolding the beauty of One manifest life.

That I see the beauty, smell the fragrances, delight in the colors, dance in awe of the varieties, touch the tender shapes and appreciate all stages of growth and unfolding, is my prayer. Thank you, God, for life and all those journeying with me, past, present and future. I am willing to do my part extending the Great Plan of Your Knowing.

4/22/10 — As I take leave, I do not leave; my heart is with you always.

4/23/10 — Home. I am Home. “Again I say, I have placed you in a paradise, Play!”
Thank you, God, for this home of beauty; my heart sings its joy; Your peace fills my soul.
Home is lifting up your heart to God; it’s the prize for praying.

4/24/10 — Holy Spirit, my forever companion, taking a form most beautiful, nothing is left wanting.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

4/25/10 — Life rolls on and I flow through it.

4/26/10 — Holy Spirit , I make known my want and you fill it beyond my dreams.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

4/27/10 — Happy 68th birthday to me!  And I am happy, healthy and hopeful. A single dove came and sat on my railing this morning and stayed while I talked with Dan. Naturally I took its picture, commemorating this mornings tryst with Dan and Holy Spirit. I am grateful; I give thanks that it is so.

4/28/10 — “Be still and let creativity flow. Still mind, walking; creativity comes to visit.”

4/29/10 — Holy Spirit, guide, direct and protect me every moment of my life.  Thank you, thank you. I let go and enter the flow of God’s grace.

4/30/10 — Holy Spirit guides me through my new life, love and happiness. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

And on and on, step-by-step, day-by-day, moment-by-moment it goes.

Holy Spirit is Reality. I love You, Me and the Holy Spirit.
