A Conversation With God

    Last Thursday, I took part in a group meditation in which we all imagined our inner child having a conversation with God. While we were descending into the meditative state, I showed my inner child all the amazing moments in my life in which I met wonderful people who supported me through my various adventures. I showed her every instance I could remember in which I said 'yes' to the world and the world said 'yes' to me. The latest event having happened June 13th this year; I was given the opportunity to be Worship Leader for my chapel and the feedback afterward was incredible. It was important to use these precious moments to remind her that she need not mistrust the world, herself, or God. Of course, she needed a lot more assurance, but I began the process of shifting her beliefs. But here is how it went.

Why should I trust you? All you've done is give me a life in which everything is taken from me. My power, my sleep, my comfort, my peace, my siblings...I could go on. And how were you there for me when I needed you most?

But I WAS there for you and with you the whole time. I could not intervene, for that lesson was your choice.

What kind of lesson could a 2 year old possibly learn from that kind of betrayal? And stop telling me it was my choice. SHOW me it was my choice. Because all I have are the memories stored in my human consciousness and not the soul's. So how can I possibly believe this?

Look again into your future, child. You will be able to see that this was indeed your choice when you use the lessons you learned through your pain to empower the disempowered.

But no one listens to me or sees me. No one sees what I have to offer through all my craziness.

That reality and belief in that reality is of the past, my child. What did you just witness June 13th, 2021? Isn't that proof enough that a brand new chapter has begun for you in which people see you and take what you have to offer seriously?

Yes, but they already know me. What about the world at large?

You were also shown the Appalachian Trail and the trip through Europe, were you not? Hitch-hiking through France? Trust me, dear child, you are ready and the world is ready for you. Just go out there and SHINE.
