                                                            THE TIMES ARE CHANGING

The times are changing around us and we have to change with the times. This is essential to human evolution.  We shed the old and embrace the new. In this new paradigm we bring compassion, unconditional love, and illumination to the darkness. As Alfred Lord Tennyson said in his famous Morte d’Arthur: “The old order changeth yielding place to new…” So we must yield and accept the new because change is inevitable for our continued enlightenment.

As we look around the world, we are surrounded by wars, greed, hatred, corruption, etc., and we are frightened about the awesomeness of the new day that awaits us. We refuse to let go and embrace the change that is upon us.  We are so entrenched in the stability of the old order that we invent obstacles and place barriers to resist taking the necessary steps to evolve—all to the detriment of our souls. One of the reasons many civilizations fell was their resistance to change. Sometimes it was forced upon them resulting in wars; many carried on for years, and in the end, change did take place. More often or not the only choice left was revolution.

We are willing to make wars, subjugate populations to inhuman treatment rather than embrace the changes necessary for our evolution. We hold unto power as a mantle, unaware that power is transitory. As the power gradually slips away from us we become more fearful and tighten the reigns and create more havoc. When we fail to make the inevitable changes, we become stagnated and isolated--living in days of old that no longer serve us. Man-made power is temporary. The Creator’s power is permanent.

At each major step of the human evolution we were faced with major catastrophes.  We shifted our thinking and allowed the change to take place. And we continued to evolve. In the times when change was trust upon us, we faced the challenge and emerged a better race of people. Time and time again we have withstood the subtle and not-so-subtle forces of change and our evolution continued. We have come a long way from the dark ages and are now moving into the age of enlightenment, love, healing, light, and compassion.

We get to accept the changing of the guards. The old guards get to make way for the new.

In order to embrace this change, we get to examine our belief system, and how well that belief has served us. We get to take a good look at our lives physically and spiritually, declutter and remove the things that are no longer useful to us. We can now manifest peace, abundance, unconditional love, wellness, healing, joy and compassion to fill those empty spaces that we have created. We all are called upon to make the changes necessary to evolve for the greater good of humanity and our planet. That is our life mission on this planet.

When we allow the energy of change that the Creator sends to us we are transformed like the butterfly, and are free from angst, bigotry, hatred and all the negative traits that never served our greater good. We now look through life from the lens of love. We see the reflection of ourselves in our neighbors: perfect, whole and healthy because that is who we are. We aspire to become our brother/sister’s keeper. We selflessly stretch forth a helping hand to those in need. We become a community of helpers and/or doers for each other. We never ask for anything in return because the circle of life and love is unending allowing us to reap what we have sown: unconditional love, healing, light, and compassion.

This is not an easy task to accomplish. It takes constant work, but for the sake of our soul’s evolution, we get to make the change within ourselves to enact the changes on planet earth—through prayer in action.
