Angel Message - Straight Ahead

Angels of Divine Light and Love direct our path:  Straight ahead... a step by step process,  as we walk by faith and not by sight."  Sometimes the way becomes narrow, and the climb rocky, but the journey is well worth the effort for when we reach the top and see how far we've come, we know we are not alone.  As we admire the grand view, humbly we recognize the challenges faced have transformed us into something far greater than previously known, our spirit is enlivened. We find we have more faith to conquer the next mountain, to overcome whatever may be up ahead.

In gratitude, our passage through time and space has not been a coincidence, the lessons learned have been in preparation for the next triumph as we continue forward, accelerating our spiritual development with the help of the Heavenly Host.  

Enjoy your experience with the Angels and give thanks for their loving, tireless support.

Love and blessings,

The White Crane Teaches a Lesson

Keeping Balanced

The recent heavy rains filled an overflow area that is now a favorite hangout for our feathered friends.  This white crane is the picture of balance. Standing on an open-ended pipe for security in the water, he patiently stays focused watching for the right opportunity to make a move.   Vigilantly,  he waits.   The pipe of itself serves no purpose in the flow.  The flow has appeared without any help from it.  The land area that has been dry is now a mini lake, filled with opportunities that didn't come through the normal channel.  Nature has provided the supply. The crane only needed to show up and maintain the proper focus.

The crane is a symbol of longevity and creation through focus. A reminder that the Divine is our Source and we are infinitely supplied with every good thing if we can open our hearts and minds to receiving the inspiration.  Angel thoughts, messages sent to us from God, are constantly available in the higher regions of our mind. In stillness the answer comes.  Often we stand on a material prop, unaware of the blessings that await us, but we need to step into the abundant waters with faith. When we do, the spiritual rewards will be plentiful.
 
Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Blessings,

Joining in Oneness

Skydive Deland Photo

I snapped a photo of this picture at The Perfect Spot restaurant at Skydive Deland. A funny quote on the bulletin board also caught my eye:  "If at first you don't succeed, sky diving is not for you."


Those words don't exactly encourage a hesitant jumper to take that leap of faith.  But  with conviction, many bravely go forward embracing the blue sky. 

Together we can do it, is the message of this happy troupe.  Holding hands, they are joined, breathing as one.  With strength in numbers, comes peace, our power is amplified.  We can relax.  We're all in it together. A smiling face, enjoying the ride,  is giving the peace sign. 

Whenever I get fearful, I close my eyes and remember that I am not alone.  I live and breathe and move in an atmosphere of divine love.  (words from a hymn) The angels are encamped around me.  Legions of angels. A wonderful thing happens when I take time to do this.  I feel the presence of that unseen but palpable love wash over me, strengthening and refreshing me to be at peace. I connect with the Oneness.

Enjoy your day with the Angels and try something new. It doesn't have to be anything as daring as skydiving, but you may want to stretch a little if you've been in a holding pattern.

Blessings,


Karen


 

A Lesson from The Rose of Sharon

The Angels of Nature taught me a powerful lesson on surrendering and letting go.  It happened when I received a beautiful Rose of Sharon bush; a special gift from a friend on Mother's Day.  So tall, green and leafy, with dozens of  pretty pink blossoms, I proudly showcased it in the front yard.  Over the months, it began to show signs of lack.  The leaves sagged from the heat and extra watering and TLC didn't seem to make a difference. 

Reluctantly, I dug it up and moved it to the meditation garden in the back yard.  The strong winds and heavy rains came and blew away most of its leaves, until at best, it looked like a Charlie Brown Christmas tree, spindly and frail.  I said a little prayer and then forgot about it.

Then yesterday, I was amazed to see this single blossom opened wide in victory, having come through the "storms."  Later, I discovered a lady bug resting on its leaves, an omen of good luck. 

This transformation taught me to have more faith.  Just when I think a situation or something is a lost cause, appearing hopeless, not to despair.  It can suddenly spring back to life in a joyful rebound, for  behind the scenes, a miracle had been in the making unbeknowst to me.

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Fully Rely on God (F.R.O.G)

When we came home last evening, the new sunflowers were suffering from the heat. There was an urgency to revive their wilted yellow petals. I grabbed the old green watering can and emptied out yesterday's rain. Tossed in a few spoonfuls of Miracle Bloom crystals and began to fill it. The large opening at the top was covered by the head of the shower wand. Soon frothy blue suds were nearing the top. When I started to pick up the can, something didn't feel quite right.

That's when I noticed a pair of eyes peeking out of the spout.

A little frog was trapped inside seeking refuge from the rising waters. Not wanting to drown him in blue liquid, I called to Elliot who advised, "Just pour him out." I wasn't so sure he could even fit through the spout. But some action was needed. Doing nothing wasn't an option. As soon as I tipped the can, the water flowed, somehow the little frog took a leap to freedom. It happened so quick I didn't see how he did it. I watched him stop by the garden plaque, Live One Day At a Time, and then hurry on his way.

Years ago someone told me F.R.O.G is an acronymn for Fully Rely On God. Sometimes we get outselves into a fix and end up somewhere that isn't in our best interest. God will send help to put us back in the flow and on solid ground.

Sorry I didn't get a picture of the little frog. But you can imagine those little eyes peering out this narrow spout. I think he was too afraid to take a leap of faith. Whatever you may be facing today, know that you are not alone. God has sent His angels to watch over you and guide you. Stay in the moment and watch for miracles.

Angelic blessings to you.
