MANIFESTATION
October 4,
2019
A single
word stayed in my mind from Mass last Sunday:
¨Manifest¨. I understood little
else, but that word resounded in my mind.
I am
Catholic. I was born in a Catholic
family and remain Catholic because I believe God has chosen this religion and
will work through it to make his Kingdom come forth on Earth.
However, as
the Church now stands I believe there are some absurd practices and also
recognize the many problems and divisions the Church has: Pedophile, economic corruption, strict,
judgmental behavior and a lack of pure, curing love with common goals. The Carmelita Nuns in my grade school ¨Sacred
Heart¨, in Aberdeen, South Dakota, had instructed me well of the good and also
of the problems!
As a
child I already realized that the position of women and the fact that men toó often look upon
sexuality and companionship with woman as sinful and disgusting is also
absurd.
Only through feminine guidance,
fellowship and mutual support, can humanity discover true inner
wellbeing.
Even with al its problems there is no organization that can bring together so many people or that manifests more or better works of charity!
Spirit is
not a mandate from a higher authority or a set of fixed rules! It is an energy that flows, that comes and
goes. It is promised and manifests in
its due time. It comes forth best through positive reinforcement rather than an authoritive system. The people are the ones who manifest the Spirit, who can and will manifest the Spirit!¨To everything there is a
purpose¨!
I believe,
I feel… and as a sensitive, intuitive person, am convinced that I can now proclaim
that there is presently a powerful, energetic push from the Spiritual World and
am sure that there is a special help coming to us.
AIM AT IT!
Let it be!
Wait! Upon
the Lord!
As you
know, I plan to be much time in Colon in Entre Rios where there is a perpetual
exposition of the Sacred Host. While
there, I hope to pray, contemplate, take long walks near the river and with my dog, Ruby, write, sing
and be sociable, and go to the thermal waters there too!
Life has offered this opportunity to me and I
believe it is for the good of all and I hope to share it.
One of the
first songs I hold onto from my childhood is ¨What Will Be¨, by Connie
Francis. It is a seed that has stayed in
my subconscious and one of the first songs that would later grow into my desire
to learn the Spanish language and about its cultures and the Catholic religión.
¨Que´ sera´, sera¨. It is also one of the first melodies that I
incorporated into my being. Life has not
been exactly what I had expected, yet I am happy to be able to say it has given
me much more than I had anticipated and surely will give more!
