Thought for the Week: Creative acts

There is an invisible golden thread of Love and light that is woven through each of us. We are here to bring our own unique gifts and talents into the very fabric of Life. We are here to discover, develop and share our talents, not only for our own per­sonal satisfaction, but to uplift and inspire those with whom we journey on this planet called earth in this particular time and space. As we become aware and attuned to developing and sharing our divine energy, syn­chronistic events spring forth as cheerleaders to coach and guide us to higher levels of self expression.

What does your Higher Self wish to express in this play­ground of Life? Be willing to ask – “What is the Spirit’s high­est vision for my life?” Then sit and wait patiently. You know the definition of patience is be­ing at peace with the process of life. Being open and available to what your Higher Self wants to bring forth will set you on a course of self discovery without limits. Joyous expectation is a critical element as you reach for the stars of your future. Recog­nize that the seed of inspiration needs tender care. It must be fed with the proper nutriments of active listening to the still small voice within and then taking perhaps just one first small step in the direction of Its calling.

I believe we have been given this physical embodiment ex­perience to be the hands and feet, be the voice, ears and eyes of the Divine. We are made of infinite creative matter and as such we are to release and share our creativity. Albert Einstein said: “It can easily be seen that all the valuable achievements, material and spiritual, which we receive from society have been brought about in the course of countless generations by cre­ative individual. Without cre­ative personalities able to think and judge independently, the up­ward development is as unthink­able as the development of the individual personality without the nourishing soil of the com­munity.”

Dare to be you own unique Self, to think and judge inde­pendently from the norm. Go within and ask. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened. Michael Ber­nard Beckwith in Spiritual Liberation provides the follow­ing affirmation. Say with me: “I attune myself to the creative impulse that indwells and seeks expression through me. I live to express my essential creative­ness by performing every act mindfully, with the attentive­ness of the artist that I am. My life is my canvas, and I cover it in acts of beauty, kindness, generosity, and authentic self-expression. And it is so.”

— Rev. Gay Beauregard, Al­pine Church of Spiritual Living
