“Each scene is beautiful, no matter what.” Sister Jerri as she was looking out over the Camas Prairie on a cloudy morning in which the sunrise was hidden from view.

Let it rise.
Let the dream rise within you.
Let faith have its way.
Let your heart hope in certainty.
Let the vision bring its clarity.
Let the calling sound its call.
Let the beauty enliven you.
Let the wonders create wonder within you.
Let the miracles be what they are.
Let the joy be unrestrained.
Let the life live within you.
Let the sun shine upon you.
Let the waves wash over you.
Let rest wrap her arms around you.
Let peace well up within you.
Let the earth sing its song to you.
Let the light be the light.
Let it rise.
Emily and I have the profound sense that we are in the midst of a new season. Some doors are closing while others have begun to open. Passions and dreams that once seemed dead are being given new life. Our hearts are being knit more tightly together. While we don’t know many specifics, we know that our job is to let the dreams rise, wait patiently, and move forward together. Looking forward to the beauty of the next scene.
“Letter to My Heart”
Allow yourself to feel, my heart.
That you might be poised to heal.


To receive healing. 

To be a conduit for healing.
To heal.
Allow yourself to feel deeply, my heart.
That you might be poised to deeply heal.
To receive deep healing.
To be a conduit for deep healing.
To deeply heal.
I will meet you in the longing.
You belong to me.
