and so it is today, traveling the way of heart across the sound waves into Africa to have a beautiful communion with two amazing peace builders who are truly creating that more beautiful world of peace built on justice and guided by love…

onto re-membering love winning as in four years ago, the Supremes ruling for marriage equality all over the USA and moving on to re-membering on this very same day President Obama delivering balm for the soul of our nation at a memorial service in Charleston, SC including his singing “Amazing Grace”  which reminds me of a daily practice I’ve followed for four years which tunes one into the frequency of grace as well as grounding one into the wellspring of joy that is always bubbling in the deepest core of our being…

yes, what a joy to traveling the way of the heart, what a healing balm as we meet each moment as fully as we are able and meet it as a friend so that we experience each moment as a moment of peace with life singing us and filling us with loving kindness and more and more compassion…

Amazing Grace

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost, but now am found;

Was blind, but now I see.

’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares,

I have already come;

’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,

And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,

His Word my hope secures;

He will my Shield and Portion be,

As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

And mortal life shall cease,

I shall possess, within the veil,

A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

The sun forbear to shine;

But God, who called me here below,

Will be forever mine.

When we’ve been there ten thousand years,

Bright shining as the sun,

We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise

Than when we’d first begun.
