For Sunday November 27th, 2022

Hello everyone, this is a true story. A couple brought their young adult son in to see Santa last year. They asked for a special gift, their son needed a kidney. Not knowing what else to do Santa promised to put his best elves on it and hugged them on their way.

They returned this year, just yesterday in fact. Their son got a new kidney two months ago. They told Santa, "You told us you'd put your best elves on it, and you did." They added, "You've got really good elves."

May we all sit this evening in gratitude for the opportunity to be 'elves' for the greater Santa.

In gratitude now,

Richard

Hello again to all. Your body is the house you will live in while you are on Earth. Take care of it lovingly. From birth to death, it is your vehicle for the lessons you will encounter. There will come a proper time for leaving it behind, taking your many lessons with you. Until then, listen to it. It will tell you many things about taking care of not only it but of taking care of your real self, the part which lives on afterward. Those will be the lessons of love; being honest with yourself and honest with others, treating others as you would wish to be treated when you are at your best, even treating them as if they were an extension of you.

This benefits not only you, but the entire fullness of humanity.

For this evening may we sit in appreciation for our vehicles – which teach us how to care – personally and beyond.

Thank you and Blessings to you all,

Richard

Hello to all, it is said that an important piece of meditation is the understanding of desire, not the overcoming of one desire by another.

You may have the desire to overcome all desire but that is merely replacement. While fully understanding desire, to fully grasp what it is and where it comes from within you, is what takes away its power to affect your life.

May we sit this Sunday to see ourselves fully and clearly, that we may go forward with Grace.

Xapis,

Richard

Hello to all, as each individual soul is a portion of the Divine, it seeks to express its divinity in the material world. At the same time that soul is housed within a human form, complete with human frailties.

By the right of free will we are allowed to choose between divinity or frailty. Frailties are known as the seven deadly sins, divinity as gifts of the spirit. Recognizing the difference - at the moment they occur within ourselves - is essential.

May we sit Sunday evening for the ability to discern those fleeting moments, and have the courage to choose beauty.

Blessings of strength to all,

Richard
