WATCH FOR CHANGE: Step into the Unknown

Step into the Unknown

It is familiarity with life that makes time speed quickly.
When every day is a step in the unknown,
the days are long with gathering of experience.

George Gissing
19th century

Of Note: My older sister, who takes these fantastic shots, understands that perceiving beauty in everything around us inspires hope. She has always had the ability to look for and see hope in every experience. If we all could that that, we would change the world.

Today's Weather Report: The morning after a thunderstorm is so refreshing. The storm clouds gathered yesterday afternoon rather unexpectedly and the temps dropped suddenly to the low 70's. It was nothing earth shattering, just a nice, soft pitter-patter to put us to sleep without air-conditioning. Today the glorious sun is shining, but more thunderstorms are forecast. Bring it on!

DARKEST BEFORE THE DAWN

No one would argue that we are in a time of change. Most would also agree that this is a time of drastic, maybe even a time of accelerating change. Some would say "Yeah, but it is certainly not in the right direction." This group might call themselves realists; some might say pessimists.

While others, probably a minority, would say, "Hum, you know, it's always darkest before the dawn. But, the light is already starting to shine through in a place or two." This latter group, too, might call themselves realists; some might say optimists. Others might just call them dreamers, idealists or worse, just plain stupid.

The challenge on this blog is to watch for change that tracks the second premise. Given time, I feel certain that we will see a story unfold in the next decade that may be startling in its simplicity--even though the happenings of the times might look otherwise.

THE GREAT INVOCATION

From the point of Light
within the Mind of God,
Let Light stream forth into the minds of men,
Let Light descend on earth.

From the Point of Love
within the Heart of God,
Let Love stream forth into the hearts of men,
May Christ return to earth.

From the center where
the Will of God is known,
Let purpose guide the little wills of men,
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.

From the center which
we call the race of men,
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out,
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.

Let Light, Love and Power
restore the Plan on earth.

This prayer was given to us in 1945 as a promise that the Age of Peace is coming but the timing is up to Humanity. Millions say it daily. You can join this invocative appeal and, what's more, it's free. Check out http://www.lucistrust.org/ or www.thegreatinvocation.blogspot.com for more information.
