The time has come now for us to evolve and become the mystics and great countless saints of today. Innumerable because of our ubiquity. Immeasurable because we are not singular, set-apart extraordinary individuals, but rather because we are becoming and WeCreating an empowered and enlivened collective. A vast communal network across the globe, inhabiting and enacting (abiding and attending) as the mystical Body of Christ, transforming the world in ways big and small.
Read MoreFrom the beckoning of our invitation to holistic repentance, personally and collectively, we have entered into the creative act of becoming, practicing metanoia.
Now, we are invited from the truth of our deepest being to receive the gift of being released, through no act or power of our own. We are offered the freedom to be in the release that has already been made true.
In our movements of being: release, embrace, inhabit—the movement of release is both something we choose and step into, as well as something that is offered to us.
Read MoreRepentance can be a creative act—a movement arising from deep within, inviting us into greater freedom and new discoveries. Rather than giving our energy to what limits, blocks, or keeps us stuck, we can engage in sacred turning as a practice of repair, balance, and healing. In so doing, we restore the flow of life, making space for the creative force of divine love to move through us.
If “Christianity” repents, as we explored last week, what is my response? What is my part in it?
Read More“Repent” is a loaded word in and of itself, but what it means in its roots is to turn around, to stop going in the direction you have been and return back. In the language Jesus spoke, Aramaic, it would have held a connotation of returning back to God.
And where is God?
How have we left God and moved away in the wrong direction?
From the beckoning of our invitation to worshipful spiritual creativity, we have opened to WeCreating arisings and through our dreams and inspirations onto the blank canvas, as acts of becoming, practicing our craft of WeCreativity among us.
Now, we are invited to the depth of simply being who we are in divine glory.
Read MoreMoving into a state of worship can be a process we undergo in order to align ourselves in right relation to both our inner being and our “object” of worship. Expressions of devotion and reverence come with authenticity when we are moving with depth of feeling within. We find our admiration and reverence to something greater and relate from the truth of our authentic being with praise, gratitude, love, and more.
In moving to worship as and from the face of God-Being-Us, the “object” is arising from within. The “greater” is coming from the inner divine Source, emerging from the depth of God who is closer to us than we are to ourselves.
For we are not simply passengers on the vessel. We are the crew. We are the ship. (And we are the ocean too). As we ride the winds and the currents leading us into the future, we are all vital and necessary—as the nature of God is to incarnate and express among and through us.
We not only worship a God-Beyond-Us or are devoted to a God-Beside-Us. We are called to live into God-Being-Us as an act of worship.
What does it look like to worship the divine in us?
Read MoreFrom the beckoning of our invitation, in divine participation, to WeCreating, we have moved with the breath of becoming, the communal breath of life, breathing in and as the mystical body of Christ.
And now, in the simplicity of our being, we might open and rest into the gentle breeze of being, here and now. Just breathe. Just be.
Read MoreOur breath is the most fundamental rhythm of life. Each inhale is an inflow, and each exhale is not just release but a giving back—to nature, to the world, to life. Every breath is shared with all creation, part of the cosmic and communal breath of existence.
Read MoreIn order to WeCreate, we have to do it together. We will not be able to create the necessary future unless it is coming from more than collections of efforts from singular individuals.
This is an extensive barrier we face, especially in modern society where so many of the systems we live and operate in exist to divide and isolate us. These systems feed the rampant egotism and narcissism that are the result of consumerism and materialism.
