Thoughts I’d like to share with you…

  • Impressionist painting of a river with green trees on the banks, a partly cloudy sky, and reflections in the water.

    Once we align with our inner guidance, somehow the madness of the world recedes and we are on our way to Wholeness.

  • Colorful abstract painting with pink, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and white brushstrokes forming heart shapes.

    You are loved, deeply and always.

  • Silhouette of a family walking outdoors at sunset with a flock of birds forming an abstract shape in the sky.

    Infinite Intelligence is in my loved ones, my friends, the cashier at the supermarket, the bug that lands on my windowsill and the wind that blows it away.

  • An impressionistic painting of a woman with arms outstretched in front of a green background, wearing a white top and red pants.

    Every person is an individual expression of Spirit, and all of their joys and sorrows, accomplishments and failures belong to the Divine and are therefore sacred.

  • Watercolor painting of sunflowers with green leaves and yellow petals, against a soft colorful background.

    Behold God beholding you, and smiling! ~ Anthony de Mello

  • Watercolor painting of red hearts hanging from black strings against a blue background.

    The deeper we move into our hearts, the more the world makes sense. ~ Mark Nepo

  • Painting of a donkey's face holding flowers in its mouth against a blue background.

    Shane Claiborne, in his article It Begins With Humility, reminds us that grace often appears where we least expect it. When he quoted a researcher as saying “God spoke to Balaam through his ass… and God’s been speaking through asses ever since” I laughed until I choked on the piece of apple in my mouth.

  • A wooded trail with a bench on the right, tall trees, green foliage, and a sunlit canopy.

    The conversations that you have with the Divine are as unique as your own identity, and only you can discern the next step in your journey. Spiritual direction can help with your discernment.

  • Abstract portrait of a person with multi-colored geometric shapes and lines, featuring green hair, a red hat, and a checkered shirt against a purple and black background.

    We descend into discomfort and there we are transformed, emerging eventually into something closer to what God intends us to be. ~ Richard Rohr

  • Watercolor painting of a blue and white bird perched between two wooden sticks.

    There is always someone challenging me to be who I say I am.

  • Colorful circular embroidered textile with various symbols and patterns, featuring a central scene with a rabbit, elephant, and bird, surrounded by symbols including a moon, star, peace sign, and others.

    All religion ultimately comes down to this: people have an experience of the Divine and desire to both understand it and repeat it.
