Pure Love

joyceskaye.com Posted on by

Here are a couple more poems that Spirit sent through David Schuck. To bask in another one, you can read “Divine Love” posted last month. [All poems used with permission.] Pure Love By David Schuck We are perfection in the making, pure love from above. A mirror image, a reflection, a shadow of what we truly will become. As we live and grow we learn to cast away the shackles of discontent and strife. Look inward and upward for your strength. Let the powers that be, give you strength. Let them do their magic upon you. Again look inward and upward for your strength.   The Light of Pure Love By David Schuck Basking in the light of love, seeing and feeling pure love from above. There is no feeling quite so grand than the pure light of love. The peace so rare, so inviting, nothing can compare to the pure light of love from above. Your entire being, spirit and soul is permeated by the light of love. Your whole body shines in the light, no darkness can be seen. Being bathed in pure love, being showered by the light, these moments so rare, these moments so pure.

The Up Side – Part 1

It’s Sunday, and after a busy day of catching up on personal administrative work (more to go), I’m going to take it easy and have today’s blog write itself! Well, that means, I’m going to share some quotes that I think are uplifting and meaningful. I read them in a feature of “Guideposts Magazine” (Feb/Mar 2022) called “The Up Side.” “With faith, you can move mountains. With doubt, you create them.” – Mickey Guyton “Every human being is born with the capacity for joy, and like the pilot light in your stove, it still burns within you even if you haven’t switched on the burners for a while.” – Ingrid Fetell Lee “The laws of physics applied to life: Objects in motion want to stay in motion. Keep moving in a positive direction and momentum will carry you forward.” – Jenny Serigano “All I know about time and space is that it never hurts to give someone a little more of each.” – Robert Brault

Being the Light

“Real giving is the givingness of the self. A kind word, a thoughtful act, perhaps just a smile can help lighten the burdens of others.” – Ernest Holmes, “Ideas for Living,” page 55 We really don’t know the outcome when we are being the light, engaging in some sort of interaction with a person. We’ve all heard stories of a simple conversation and human connection preventing a plan to suicide, unbeknownst to the other party. Yet what an act of kindness. Just like I know that often the person on the other end of the phone line talking to me doesn’t realize how much they are brightening my day even though it’s in a customer service context. You see, between working remotely from home, a job where I can go for days without speaking to anyone in the organization (amazing, I know), living alone, and isolation due to COVID, there are times my psyche is inwardly screaming for human interaction. The act of being the light can be simple, yet so powerful. Let’s each keep shining our light, being the light for others—we will brighten up this planet!

Vessels for God

It’s Sunday evening and I’m writing from the “Big City”—Phoenix, AZ. I don’t come here often since moving back north to a more rural landscape and smaller population. But I had good reason: a house concert featuring two of my favorite local New Thought singers who I came to know through Science of Mind and Unity. It’s amazing how many years have passed since we first met! I met Cerise when I initially moved from Santa Fe to Phoenix back in 2003. She was a young, married woman in her 20s; now she is 42 years old, a mother of three, tour operator and guide, in addition to being a singer and songwriter. Jeanne came into my life when I moved to Phoenix a second time, relocating from Sedona in 2015; we met when she sang at Unity of Mesa. She became my Naam Yoga teacher, and my client briefly; these days she ministers in her own church, in addition to working full-time in the corporate world, studying to be ordained as a Unity minister, and, of course, writing songs and singing. Tonight, one of the songs was about shining your light. These two women are powerhouses with their singing … Continue reading →
