God’s Truth Is Always Simple
Personal Spring Cleaning
As we move past the winter season and prepare ourselves for society opening up again post-pandemic, we may be asking ourselves whether it’s time to clear some things out. I often do an inner spring cleaning check with my Soul to see if it’s time to let go of some old...
Thanksgiving Address
“If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.” Meister Eckhart In the Standing in the Light® Classes, we teach that when possible the simplest way to do something may be the best way. Our clearing statements, gratitude...
Child of Wonder
Recently, I’ve been working on letting go of some old stories of mine which are rooted in the illusion of separation. I was reviewing Pema Chodrin’s book Start Where You Are and came across a story that spoke to me. She is describing the Buddhist teaching about being...
Empathy
We have heard a lot of calls for unity recently. It is a topic that we teach in Standing in the Light® and for which we have discussed here many times before. However, a friend of mine, Rae Russel, mentioned that we would be better focused on the energy of empathy as...
Being the Witness Self
Like many these days, I’ve been working on finding the balance between remaining detached while being fully present with what’s happening in our world. Many ancient spiritual traditions teach a version of how to be in our witness self, being in the world but not of...

Festival of Inner Light
Many traditions include some version of a festival of lights around this time of year. We are going into the darkest season, so there is a natural desire to balance that out with more light. This season is also a time of quiet and going within, into the creation void,...
The Mastery of Gratitude
At this time of year, we are encouraged to count our blessings and to be grateful. Even in 2020, this “unprecedented year”, people are expressing gratitude for the things that are going well in their lives. Some people are expressing gratitude for family, friends,...
To Live a Life in Each Moment
One of my spiritual teachers, Kris Duffy, used to tell a parable she learned from a Native American tradition. It went something like this: Every morning, a man would wake and ask Great Spirit, “Is today a good day to die?” and every morning he would hear “No” and...
Three Deep Breaths for Divine Patience!
Many lightworkers, Ginger and me included, have been encouraging the resonance of Divine Patience in recent months. We have channeled the benefits from a metaphysical standpoint. Ginger’s channeling from earlier this summer is particularly powerful. In her channeling...
Divine Compassion and Divine Power
In a February blog entry, entitled Back to Basics, we discussed the resonances that Marsha Hankins channeled in association with the points of the Star of David. They are from top going clockwise: Love, Compassion, Wisdom, Forgiveness, Power and Understanding. It is...
