There is a Way to spiritual certainty , that leads one to seeing and understandng that we live in a world of constant communication .Symbols, signs and tokens, laid across our path , sacred displays from the Divine,measured in Love, weighed in kindness,designed and assembled by the Unseen

By merging with the " Divine Flow ", and visualizing or imaging the ideal person we wish to be, we become " creators of our own destiny ",The supreme alchemist of our own fate, all being underpinned by an implicit faith in Infinite Intelligence, which is the Source of All.We are endowed with the extraordinary capacity to transfer spiritual energy and power to other people in chance meetings and encounters.

We tap into the invisible Divine Matrix Field , that dynamic and limitless energy field, which is effected by loving kindness, the principal gift,which we then dischargeor communicate in the form of " Divine Grace " to other people, with the Master Intention of the " Good of All " .

To be utterly selfless in the course of our life, always putting the interests of others before our own is the perfect manifestation of Divine Love .We must always listen intently to our intuition or " inner voice ",that direct linkto Almighty God ,who is constantly guiding our thoughts, words and deeds with unerring accuracy and honesty .

We must cultivate a total reliance and trust in the Holy Spirit to guide us in every aspect our lives, believing implicitly in the goodness and mercyof the " Higher Power ".By being fully aligned with the Most High, grants us the infinite powers and energies of the Universe, this magnificent meeting with the Eternal Source fills us with the limitless resources and wonders of the Divine

By the incredible powers of Faith,we become filled with the Cosmic Channelsof Divine Energy and Grace.Acting from a pure heart, with Love and Compassion for All, we become divine agents for the Higher Power, able and empowered to bring Light and Joy into our World, dispelling the Dark, healing the sick and wounded ,andgiving hope and inspiration to our brothers and sisters of the human race

Divine Symbolism is characterised by the signs, tokens and omens strewn along our path, Symbols of the Infinite Intelligence, placed and displayed as individual markers for us to set thecourse of our life

The Alchemy of Divine Love is guaranteed to bring us mastery of ourselves and the world we live in.

We become Co Creators with God, blessed with Divine Grace, and inspired and blessed to work with loving kindness for the Good of All.

First of all, thank you for your comments on my poem 'My Brother of The Blue.' I have always felt that he is right there with me especially when I'm painting. He was my mentor in the arts. Yes, I miss him, and yes I do believe I'll see him again.
I love your story 'The Dragonfly and The Scallop,' I do believe that through one's action with another, one can transfer their spiritual energy to one who is seeking an answer. I think you know immediately that they will walk away with an awakening soul.
I have two paintings at http://www.artpal.com/gilgarcia40
The Crucifixion titled 'The Moment of Atonement,' festered in my mind for seven years and it took me two years to paint it. I did not want to do the traditional. When I was in the process of adding the finishing touches with the garage door open, a car came to a screeching to a halt in the middle of the street. The driver got out and walk right up to the painting, and stared at it for the longest time before talking. He then looked at me and said, "I've seen that light, just as you painted it." He said he had a heart attack and had past over and that's what he saw. The painting ended up in Sacramento. It is owned by the person that was meant to have it. In his hand he will spread the word.
Again, thank you for your comment, and I love your work.
Take care,
Gil

Great inspiration and healing for all those who would read. This message could, and should, never be condensed to poetry, for there is much too much to be absorbed!

I'd suggest this be manditory reading for the leaders of the world...

If only more individuals dared to believe they might become "the supreme alchemist of their own fate." A challenging concept to embrace in a world where so many are conditoned to believe in everything but themselves, yet an essential truth to recognize if one is to live a life of any meaningful quality or joy.

Lately I am re-considering, and re-evaluating. It's not the first time. But something forces me to see the benefits of being simply your self and caring about your own happiness - something I have absolutely no idea how to do it. I tend to think the rest is only God's business and we shouldn't interfere. That God wants us happy as individuals - self sacrifices is for special occasions and love is stronger when we have learned how to love ourselves without becoming egoists. Thanks for the thought-provoking write.
Cheers,
Nicoletta

I was expecting a Tortoise and Hare type fable (a story). Instead, this article of faith is a timeless rendition of what religious belief does for some people.
