Hi! We are Susan Wright and Wolfgang Lettow, founders of Beacon Of Life (www.beacon-of-life.com) and authors of Weekly Wisdom, a weekly e-newsletter. We are thrilled and honored to be part of the Lightworker Spectrum of Light!Well, I see it’s going to be another one of those weeks. Today, I started out to write about the beauty of summer and being carefree and such. However, as spirit guided my fingers across the keyboard, I ended up writing about disaster and assistance. Obviously, that is what I needed to write about today.
I
know that the calendar says that summer doesn’t start until the 21st
of June, but for all practical purposes, it seems that the summer is upon
us. I’m seeing more rental RVs in the grocery
store parking lots, and many young adults are graduating from High School and
College. The patio furniture and
barbeque grills are all on sale, and swimsuits have replaced sweaters in the
department stores. Yeah, it seems that
summer has come to the U.S.
Normally,
we have already experienced plenty of “hot” days in southern Nevada by this time of year. But this has been a strange weather year –
for us, and for lots of people around the globe. For us, the strange weather has meant a much
cooler spring than normal – so the strangeness has been very pleasant. That hasn’t been the case for much of the
world.
Flooding,
tornados, earthquakes, tsunamis, mudslides, and even some very late spring snowstorms
have made life miserable and dangerous for so very many people. I can’t imagine what they must be going
through.
So,
when it is windy for the umpteenth day in a row, I refuse to complain. When the heat does make it to southern Nevada
(and it will, I’m sure), I refuse to complain.
Life is good here. So, I think
that I’ll choose to be grateful for whatever shows up, and do what I can to
assist people who could use a little help right now.
I
think that most of us would love to be billionaires who could adopt a
neighborhood and help them rebuild, and create new good-paying jobs, and so
on. But, that is not within my financial
realm right now. So, I help where I can
financially. More importantly, I think,
I do my best to hold the energetic space for healing, and rebuilding.
Today,
I am making this request to my higher levels:
show me the rays of light in each situation, rather than the darkness. Help to train my eyes to look for the light,
adjust my hearing to be most receptive to the good news, take command of my
voice to speak words of encouragement and hope, and most importantly, release
my judgment of the darkness while strengthening my compassion for those who
cannot yet see the light. Make me an
instrument. Thy will, not my will, be
done.
As
I was writing the paragraph above, my mind wanted to go only to light, love,
and joyful things. However, my higher
levels are asking me to release my fear and judgment of darkness. I am being asked to fully embrace “what is”,
without getting overly emotional about whatever is showing up. Rather than expend any energy whatsoever on “Oh,
how horrible!” - I am being asked to go
straight to “How can I assist?”
Logically,
I see the beauty of using ALL of my energy to assist but it is still
unfathomable to my mind to skip the ‘horror and outrage’ step. It will be interesting to see what I am
guided to do next.
Namaste!
Susan
