The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us. Black Elk (1863-1950) You are needed as a conscious Spiritual Peacemaker to hold the resonance of Peace, Love and Divine Truth as our Earth and her people go through this time of tremendous change. Native Americans hold the belief--Mother Earth, Father Sun and Grandmother Moon are the powers that keep the planet safe, nourished and plentiful. Prayer is a very valuable tool that comes from the heart. There are lessons to be learned from every experience. This truly is one planet, one globeand one country's disaster or loss affects all of us. With that in mind, I encourage you to send messages of love, warmth, and healing to people all around the world. Whether it's through prayer, meditation, or some other form of spirituality, your good thoughts and well-wishes will create a powerful positive energy that will resonate throughout the world. Peace comes from being able to contribute the best that we have, and all that we are, toward creating a world that supports everyone. But it is also securing the space for others to contribute the best that they have and all that they are. Hafsat Abiola Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding. Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding. Albert Einstein (1979-1955) Last, but not least, send peace and healing thoughts to Mother Earth; holding the intention that as our world shifts that it does so in the easiest and most harmonious way. Hold positive thoughts for the future. While we may not understand all that is happening right now, all is in Divine order. Focusing on the negative only brings in more negativity whereas your "being at peace" brings in more peace. In our continuing effort to hold the peace vibration on the planet, I encourage everyone to endorse a peace declaration. "Thoughts of Peace" is an outward sign of our global desire for peace. There are many organizations working to provide guidance and support for spiritual peacemaking. http://www.emissaryoflight.com (link to list of agencies providing help) http://www.nealedonaldwalsch.com With deepest compassion, I wish everyone peace, light, love and wellness. |
