“God is not found in the soul by adding anything, but by a process of subtraction.” Meister Eckhart is expressing an expanding idea in the statement. In the awakening soul – you and I – to its spiritual nature within the mind, heart, and body is a path of letting go not taking on. Yes we each want to be fully human. Yet the more we focus on and live in our divinity, there is a process of letting go of the empty clutter and chatter that can stand in the light of our sure wisdom, pure love and vibrant shining expression along with our unique creativity.

As I become quiet in prayer-fullness, I soothe the internal feelings and thoughts, while I speak softly ‘peace be still.’ I am receptive to the stillness, awake to inner wisdom. As well, there is an internal knowing, a spiritual intelligence that guides me aright in prayer and in active moments.

I let my humanity be guided on currents of divinity, deeper and more deeply giving way for the inner light and love to lead on. I ask the question to the wise direction in prayer–what do I need to release and what do I need to increase to live from my higher nature. I sit in prayer and listen. The invitation is given–the answer is forthcoming, in prayer or at any time. Thank you Divine Spirit. You reveal to me spiritual blessings and divine direction. Amen
