A Long Time

WHAT A LONG TIME IT CAN
TAKE TO BECOME THE PERSON
ONE HAS ALWAYS BEEN.

~Parker Palmer

Of Note: The evolution of consciousness takes a long time. I mean a really long time. That's where the concept of reincarnation comes into play. Ageless wisdom teaches that it is the soul evolving over eons of time rather than a personality, which changes from lifetime to lifetime. The personality is only a vehicle for the soul--a means of expression as it were. Over millions of years it "tries on" every imaginable combination until ultimately, having tried them all, no longer craves the human experience. Personalities with souls at this juncture often stand out as servers of Humanity. Look around, read the news. Appreciate their sacrifice, for their suffering has been great.

Today's Weather Report: The weather forecasters originally said today was to be a carbon copy of yesterday. Well, it wasn't. Sunday's blowing winds brought clouds right behind it, and rain looked immanent all day. So far, we haven't been graced with any precipitation but that could change at any moment. That's AOK with us, bring on the rain. We need every drop in our drought-stricken area.

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.
