Lent 2009: Day 19

Lenten Journey through the Spiritual Alphabet
Psalm 119, Sustainable Love

Yodh (part 1)
Your hands made me and fashioned me;
give me insight to learn your commands.
Those who fear you rejoice to see me,
because I hope in your word.
I know, LORD, that your edicts are just;
though you afflict me, you are faithful.
May your love comfort me
in accord with your promise to your servant.
*****
This is so great! Yodh begins I Am.
The one-word name of the absolute perfection
who made us and fashioned us.

Yodh-He-Vau-He (YHWH)– it can only
be pronounced correctly deep in the soul.
We sing it as Yahweh.

This is Us! Ours, mine and yours and everyone’s.
Spiritual teachers today are teaching us to manifest the “perfection” we were born with, by naming our essence.
What is your essence?
What are your seven I am statements?

My essence is light,
I am light for the world
I am filled with The Holy Spirit
I am courage (heart)
I am victory (glory)
I am a receptacle for the Great Beautifier
I am an enneagram 3 – The Achiever (latent obviously) – with a romantic 4 wing ;o)
(no...forget that one)
I am patience
I am for-giving

Instructions heard last night in a dream for growth:

Child! Stop walking backwards, you don’t need to get wet so often
Come My way
Rise out of obscurity
