Prayers

Dear friends,

Yesterday I received a message from a lovely woman named Sheryl who shared that her beloved elder friend had passed away.  She says that she feels very sad and wondered if there was anything she could do to make her heart feel lighter. 

I want to ask if all of you will join me in holding Sheryl and her friend and family in prayer during this wondrous passage.  There is so much comfort, strength and power in prayer, especially when our voices are joined together.  Our prayers are always heard and faithfully answered.  Thanks to each of you for this blessing.  It really is a great privilege to pray for one another.

It’s very natural to feel sadness when someone we love dies.  We miss their physical presence and yet we know that they have moved on to the next place, to heaven, and it’s all such an incredible mystery.  Thankfully we’ve been given this beautiful gift of memory which allows us to celebrate and re-member the times we’ve spent together.  It’s good to share our stories, our memories as in doing so we are not only blessing our loved one but ourselves and others.  This sharing of stories often brings a sense of gratitude and smile to our hearts and suddenly it seems that the sadness is infused with a tender happiness and joy.   I believe that’s one way the sadness can be transformed.

When a loved one has passed, it’s good to bless them on their journey, ask the angels to surround them and encourage them onward.   Ask the angels to surround you too and to give you comfort and strength. 

We’re here for such a short time to share our lives, to learn how to love, to be love and be loved and then onward and upward we go.  It’s quite amazing when you really pause for a moment to let your heart take it all in.

Blessings and deep peace to you dear Sheryl, and a heart full of gratitude to everyone for your love and prayers.

With Love and Immense Joy,
