 "Life is not what you see, but what you've projected.  
It's not what you've felt, but what you've decided. 
It's not what you've experienced, but how you've remembered it. 
And, it's not where you've been, but where you're going."

"Healing Happens
from Within " 
with
    Rev. Ron Moor and musician James Schattauer  
 
In our journey of soul so far, we have woken up, started out, felt alone, found friends along the way, looked within, and started letting go. As we do all this, we uncover the "treasure within" and begin to experience true healing. On this first day of June we will explore how healing can, and does happen. We will also honor and celebrate Kids With Spirit. 
The one who heals us
lets whatever hurts the soul
dissolve to a listening
intelligence, where what we most 
deeply want, union with eternity,
grows up around and inside us now!
Rumi

                SCHOOL SUNDAY
                   May 18, 2014
 

                "Heroic Surrender"

                            with
                    Rev. Ron Moor 

 

Ron led us in an exploration of our journey as the hero inside us within the divine mother matrix. A community member shared, "For me I left with a new realization that we tend to get stuck in our left brain and end up letting our head try to control everything in our lives.  And, we did a great exercise focusing on an infinity symbol near the root chakra to teach our body a different way of listening.  Powerful."

Returned for Alterations

By Janetgrace

for Mary LeSourd of Courage Center

 

Gentle --- Safely --- Assuredly

She holds my hands ---

Until the right moment comes

With my Letting Go.

 

I'm resting on the water....

Floating in her care.

Only breathing

In               Out

Breathing

 

Relaxing --- Resting --- Being

Free to escape to my dreams

To fly as Eagle to the sun-drenched cliffs of Lake Superior

To gallop as Horse down the wave-lapped shore

To leave my body and Dance in space.

 

to Be

Still

in the Presence of the All Knowing

at One

 

Is this what it's like to leave the body behind:  

Just fall back, float, and say yes?

Permitting myself to slip through to the other side?

 

Eventually

Reluctantly, I'm brought back to the pool.

Prone --- then slowly, slowly standing.

 

"I don't want to come back,"

I hear myself say.

 

Yet, I do --- Altered.
