Expressing Peace. What Matters. 53.

What matters? As I walked, the orange-disk sun moved toward the western horizon and the 3/4 moon climbed from behind the eastern. At once I was so conscious of the size, the vastness, the distance, and the life-significance of what is outside of me. I enjoyed the beautiful cloudless sky, the almost translucence of the moon, the softening brightness of the sun. I enjoyed the peace of feeling infinitesimal relative to what I saw.

“The significance of my unimportance” pronounced loudly in my head.

You and I are by no means unimportant for we are Part of the Whole. You and I are significant as we are of GOD and graced with the Christ Spirit that is ours to live. You and I have meaning for our creation is GOD’s expression of Peace.

Our real significance comes from knowing we are Peace. That lets us know that the happiness and excitement and pleasure and success our human existence brings are relatively unimportant. Important to our everyday lives, sure. Important to our  human wants and needs, of course. But the simultaneous sun and moon made all that seem unimportant relative to the Spirit that is our true Self.

And it made my whole view of tomorrow and its demands, of today and its delights, of yesterday and all its doings remarkably peaceful. Remarkably Peace-filled.

Supreme Power and Presence,
I love the peace of knowing
that as I am the most important person in my life
I am no more important than anyone.
I love the peace of feeling
less than small compared to the world around me
and as large as your Spirit which I AM.
I love the peace from finding
I am One and I am One of everyone
are not contradictions
and both are true.
I love the peace that looking
at the moon and sun
and listening to our heart
lets me enjoy: enormous
and tiny.
And so it is.
And so I love you, GOD.
Amen. Amen.

Enjoy Peace. Express Peace.
