Dear Friends,
I have been teaching the basic principles for living life in
the divine flow since 1995. In 1998---a good three years before I began to write
my book on the subject---I wrote a lyrical poem about the divine flow that I
titled, "River of Life." Here is
that poem:
Traveling
down,
Turning
corners round,
You're
rowing down the river of life.
Gliding
along,
Hear
the river's song,
You're
rowing down the river of life.
Let go
and feel the flow.
Make
your plans, then let them go.
What
you want is round the bend.
Use
your oars, but let God lend
A
helping hand.
Moving
ahead,
No
fear, no dread,
You're
rowing down the river of life.
Now
fast, now still,
Feel
the flow of God's will.
You're
rowing down the river of life.
Let go
and feel the flow.
Do what
you can, then let it go.
What
you want is round the bend.
Use
your oars, but let God lend
A
helping hand.
Rowing
downstream,
Heading
toward your dream,
You're
rowing down the river of life.
You're
rowing down the river of life.
You're rowing down the river of your life.
Well, at a conference last August, I ran into a good friend
of mine named Jeanette Alexander.
Jeanette is an award-winning composer/pianist from Seattle, Washington.
Although Jeanette's compositions have all been instrumental up to now, she
told me that she would like to start writing and performing songs.
It occurred to me at the time that perhaps Jeanette
would be interested in turning my poem into a song---something that I had long
desired. But it wasn't until a few
weeks after the conference was over that I was suddenly motivated to email my poem to
her.
Guess what? The very same morning that I sent my poem to
Jeanette, she awoke with a brand new melody in her head. All she needed was some words to make
it into a song. When she opened my email, she was thrilled by what I had
sent, and she immediately sat down at
the piano to see if my poem would match the basic structure of her music. It was a perfect fit!
And there you have it, friends . . . a nice little example
of the divine flow in action: Through divine inspiration and divine motivation,
two people---many miles apart---were synchronistically brought together to help
fulfill each other's desires . . . effortlessly, and in this case, instantly.
This week, in lieu of a "lesson," I simply offer you our
song. To listen to "River of Life," just click on:

This is a simple MP3 file, so your computer should be able
to download and play it easily.
If you want to know
more about Jeanette and her music, I invite you to visit her website at jeanettealexandermusic.com.
My original poem is also available as a Free Bookmark on the Order Page of my website.
