Easter Blessings!

Easter is a season of awakening, discovery and movement. It's not a time to remain static. We're invited to be curious about our faith and our calls as disciples of Jesus.

Have you discovered Substack yet? If not, allow me to entice you. It is an app for your phone (or you can access it by a website). Substack states, "Resources, stories, and news for the writers, podcasters, musicians, video creators, and culture makers publishing on Substack."  You can follow people, but you can also connect to friends and colleagues and see what they're reading as well. Our own David Hawkins has a Substack page (https://substack.com/@possibilitymodel?r=41z3m8&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=stories&shareImageVariant=light)

Last week I was made aware of an essay which examines the Lord's Prayer in Jesus's language.  It was heart opening and soul nurturing. The author notes that we might have been misled in the words and meaning of Jesus's pray. More so, we may have been missing out on the opportunity to connect in a deeper, more vibrational way with God and creation. 


Here is the reimagined prayer based on Jesus's language:

O breathing life of all existence, you who dwell in the dimension of light and vibration from which all things emerge.
 
May the sacred vibration through which you organize reality be recognized and honored in everything we do.
 
May the sacred queendom — the divine feminine creative principle — fully express itself in earthly reality as it does in the dimension of light.
 
May your loving desire for the full expression of divine consciousness be realized in earthly reality as fully as it is in the dimension of light.
 
Provide us today with the nourishment — physical, emotional, and spiritual — that we genuinely need for our full flourishing.
 
Release us from the energetic knots we have accumulated as we release others from the grip of our resentment toward them.
 
Do not let us become lost in the illusion of separation from you, but free us from the immature consciousness that arises from that forgetting.
 
For the divine feminine creative principle, the power of life, and the radiance of all existence belong to you through all cycles of time. So be it — grounded in me, expressed through me, made real in the world through my conscious participation.


How do you feel after reading these words? How might they move you forward into your Easter faith?

Pastor JJ
