No “Stranger” Among Us

by Rev. Marta A. Schwartz

I was led by Spirit to be a vendor at the Spirit-Mind-Body fair in Topeka, Kansas. My good friend, Linda and her dear husband, Don and I set up a very nice booth offering massage, Young Living essential oil, Reiki, ACIM, and Pathways of Light information.

Never doing anything like this, I kept my expectations very low. The fair is a biannual event and has been going on for several years. It is well organized and the staff is very friendly. All the vendors started both days in circle with a group meditation. This really set the tone. I immediately felt like I was among good friends. In fact, I did reconnect with some old friends.

As the fair goers started coming by, it did not take me too long to figure my main reason for being there. When I looked into the eyes of those before me, I recognized myself, not too long ago, searching for meaning, on a quest. With each interaction, Holy Spirit seemed to slow time, turn down the noisy atmosphere and allow that which would be most helpful to come through. This experience was enriching and humbling. By the end of the first day, I was so energized!

Even though the second day was a bit more challenging, Holy Spirit was with us. The venture was a complete success on all levels. It was wonderful that through massage, I was able to cover my expenses, I handed out all the Pathways of Light and Miracles News magaziane, sold a few oils, and made some new friends. More valuable than all of this, I was reminded that there is no such person called “stranger.” We are One.

Holy Spirit, Your inspiration and guidance are welcomed gifts.
Help me to always keep my eyes,
my ears and my heart open
To the lovely sound of Your Voice. Amen.
