Now is the Season of Knowing – Audio

Standard

Music – Thievery Corporation – Sleeper Car

I have come face to face with my own cowardice

Stark and real, it has lived for decades hidden at the core of me

The talents and skills I have honed

Now exposed for what they are in the light of what has come

Forever it seems I have developed defenses to hide and secure the Timid Self

In the arena of thought, philosophy, religion, and politics, I am a warrior and champion

But even now I shrink before the powers and principalities of this world

I am exposed, vulnerable, panicked, and yes, afraid

Yet . . .

And yet, even in the midst of the chaos of this crucible there is stillness

A soundless voice whispers . . .

Wait, be still, allow the fire to burn off the dross

Watch and see the path appear before you

It will manifest one halting step at a time

It says to me

Time for believing is done

Now is the season of Knowing

For, without resistance there can be no flight

If there is no obstacle, climbing is impossible

Amidst the fear is where love abides

At the ends of terrible grief, laughter arises

Stillness is learned when anxiety is the guide not the foe

What is Now will reveal what is needed in It’s time

I will ride the waves that come

They will ferry me to the new land which awaits

  2. Sorry about the duplicate. Looks like WP, my renegade browser or a server somewhere threw a wobbler. Please delete the version missing a ( . Thanks. 🙂

    {I hope this one works.}

  6. Just remember you were a pilgrim on this road once before… Perhaps soon you’ll see some familiar touch stones… Hang in there “little brother.” <3

    • Yes mam. I remember and it is well. The imaginations of what might be seek to usurp what is. I think I am where I need to be. And like before I have hope in the cool and unexpected grace of the Creator. Kisses and hugs.
