Be The Butterfly


There once was a caterpillar that didn't have a clue
That just beyond the horizon was a completely different view
A life beyond his maddening, confusing, selfish ways
A life of joyful giving that would last beyond his earthly days
From the all consuming desire to fulfill his fleshly needs
To a selfless soaring adventure doing wondrous deeds
To transform from a taker
To a giver of great Love
Can only be accomplished
By the Creator from above
Be the butterfly

The Economy of Energy Exchange

The Economy of Energy Exchange



If our current financial world would collapse today:


Would the earth stop turning



The sun stop shining


Would the air cease to exist?



How about this:



Will…




Seeds stop sprouting?





Birds quit chirping





People stop breathing

For the most part life will go on……….


With that thought, will we recognize that...?




Our economy is run by people power



Everything that we need for survival, for happiness


can be achieved without money




It takes people helping people through Love





Are we up to the task???

How Are You Doing?

With the stress & uncertainty of our current time,
I usually get the answer "just hanging in there,"
when I ask the question "How are you doing today?"

Peace With God Through Faith



Romans 5
Peace with God Through Faith
1Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
2Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,
4and endurance produces character, and character produces hope,
5and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

Inspirational Moments



Looking back to moments that helped shape my life,

I recall the essence of the words from

the prayer of St. Francis and the life of Mahatma Gandhi.

That call to peace, for peace, ...my lifelong journey.

Join The Dance Of Life


There have been many times in my life where I have felt invisible.
Often times like I was seeing the world from the outside looking in.
Always a feeling of being “ less than” everyone else around me.
Where do those types of feelings come from, within or without?
Who knows for sure?
If ever you find yourself in such a space, just remember…..
You are uniquely and wonderfully made.
You have something extraordinary to share, a point of view unlike any other.
So be bold, be strong… BE YOU………..
See the world blossom before your very eyes.

Handshake Integrity



Our world is running on what seems to be "a lack of Wisdom".
Are we drawing closer to a time of choice, "which master shall we serve"?
The economy is changing daily, creating emotional turmoil.
How do we choose the higher ground?
Lean on the Rock, instead of slip in sinking sand.
Just breathe.
Quiet the mind chatter.
Hear the Wisdom of the Ancients.
"To God belong wisdom and power;
counsel and understanding are His."

How will we manage these economic times???

Can we rely on brotherly love at this point in time???
If not, can we get to the point where we can???

How do we become free of our present time of crisis???


2 Chronicles14

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Releasing The Drama

Releasing the drama in our lives.

Why do we choose to hold onto drama, anxiety, fear.

Do we gain peace from such behavior?

Are we so conditioned to stress that we choose to maintain its insanity

for the sake of being "normal."

Saying, "Its the way everyone reacts, so it must be normal."

Would life be too boring without the chaos/conflicts?

Or is there more?

Does facing our stuff/ego cause us anxiety?

Will we feel shame/humiliation as we face the time wasted in misery versus

the time we could have been in joy, thus keeping us stuck?

Is there a better way?

There is no shame in humbling our selves to Truth.

It is freeing.

Peace and renewal are possible.

We must be willing to change.

Yes, there is a better way.

Are we ready?

2 Chronicles 7:14 (New King James Version)
14 if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
James 4:6 (New King James Version)
6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says:
“ God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.”
