JESUS: The True Light... A Meditation
Jesus, you are the True Light that enlightens all who are born into this world. With heartfelt gratitude, in this moment, I so welcome and trust my whole life to your radiant life-giving presence.
You see me, you know me, you love me as being my deepest, truest self, a radiant core of divine love that I have always been, that I am now, that I will always be, even as I pass through death, for love cannot die. In communion with you, with all, I know myself as totally loved and loving, totally loving and being loved.
And even though I may be aware of having suffered from pain,
grief and fear in my life journey thus far (that I may still feel grips my life) I sense this radiant core of love that you see in me is so much deeper. You only yearn for me to awaken to my deepest center that is free of pain, grief and fear that I may realize the
truth of who I really am.
And so, in this moment, I sense your deep loving gaze touching my heart’s deepest center awakening the radiant core of divine love that I truly am, and from this core of love I sense love radiating from your heart to my heart, from my heart to your heart and I abide in the Radiance of Divine Communion. Your words echo deep within me, “I am in you and you are in me, and we are one.” And with each breath I allow this realization to permeate my whole being, deeper and deeper, from the tips of my toes to the top
of my head.
I also sense this radiance of Divine Communion includes all who share in this communion — both beyond time and space and within time and space. I allow names to come — saints, angels, departed loved ones, family and friends on earth I love and care for, and as
I listen with each breath, I sense a Circle of Love and Empathy that embraces all, that has no limit, and I allow the sense of the ultimate preciousness of life to come to me.
And I am also aware of my communion with suffering people everywhere, persons known and unknown to me. I open wide
to include all — Infants, toddlers, children of all ages, adults of all ages and of all places. As I have known pain, grief and fear in my own unique way, so have each of these in their own unique way. And even as I may need deeper healing of any memories of pain, grief and fear, they do also, and I listen to names that come to
me of those I wish healing for.
And so I pray from the depths of my being, let this radiant core of divine love at the heart of us all, radiate and resonate through my whole being, from the tips of my toes to the top of my head and wherever I have had to hold pain, grief and fear in my body let it
be touched by this radiant love and let it be released and healed, in whatever way is best — through breathing, movement, sounds, words, tears. And I pray not only for myself, but also for all, both known and unknown to me, who feel deep pain and need healing. And as I allow healing in myself, I discover that I am not the pain, the grief, the fear I have had to hold in and make about myself and also I discover that others are not any pain, or grief, or fear that they have had to hold in, that they have made about themselves.
Now I sense this radiant loving divine core that I am, that everyone is, in communion with all who have awakened to The Eternal, The Ever Present, Always Radiant Love, that has brought us all forth,
all creation forth: the earth, the stars, all creatures, that we may
all together experience Communion in This Blessed Love.
Now I see clearly that we are all this radiant core of love yearning to know itself. I sense a new freedom, for I know the radiant love within that I truly am, in which I live and move and have my being. I walk the path of love given me each day for the good of all, with deep confidence, joy and trust, knowing I will always be given
what I need.
The Light of Life
I am the light of the world.
Whoever follows me
will never walk in darkness
but will have the light of life.
— John 8:12
