WHISPERINGS OF THE SOUL …

“Listen… listen… listen
Do you hear the sound,
Of the silence of the Spirit
And the humming of the ground?
Do you see the sunlight
Spark’ling on the dew
Do you see the rainbow
That’s shining forth in you?
Do you spend a moment to wonder who you are
And…
Have you ever watched a moon beam
Kiss a falling star?

Listen… listen…listen
To the whisper of your heart,
Do you know you’re one with Me
Or do you feel apart?
Am I in some far abode
Or do you feel me near,
Are you open to my Love…
Or are you closed in fear?
So long I’ve waited here for you
And… How very hard I’ve tried,
To draw you here into My Heart
And hold you close inside.

Listen… listen… listen
Do you hear Me call,
Or is your mind so in the world
It doesn’t hear at all?
You listen… but you hear Me not
You look but do not see…
The secret is in knowing
That I’m always here with thee.
Can you put your human self aside
And…
Can you let it go…
Will you open up in trust to Me
And let my Spirit flow.

Please listen to My calling
And hearken to My Plea…
The only place to find true peace
Is here ‘inside with Me…’
I’m the One who always understands
The One for who you yearn,
When all Life’s dreams
Are ground to dust
I’m the One to whom you turn…
And when the path of life is weary
And long the ‘darkened night’
I’m the One who lifts you high again
And brings you to the Light.

Do you see Me in the river
Do you see Me in the sky
Do you see Me in the sunset
When evenings drawing nigh?
I’m the One that guards and guides you
Throughout the ages long…
Who leads you thru’ the ‘darkened vale’
And makes your spirit strong…
The One who always loves you
The One who makes you whole,
I AM.. BELOVED of your heart
YOUR SELF… YOUR GOD… YOUR Soul!”

“God is immanent in every particle in the Universe.
The clear vision can experience Him everywhere at
all times and that vision can confer immeasurable
inexpressible BLISS”
