Meditation Vision

[Guest guest]

Dear and my Sisters and Brothers on the journey:  Happy,

Healthy,Prosperous 2010 !    I had a vision during meditation this morning, but

first just a bit of background to explain why I believe I experience this

vision:  I have had a large measure of responsibility for family members for 26

years, and have had to put my own feelings aside, ignore them,

and just do what was required to fulfill those responsibilities, to the degree

that I no longer knew what I was feeling.  I have been in this state for years

now.  In the past few days, after spending several days at my daughter's house,

when I returned home I realized for the first time in years that I am very

unhappy, due to the circumstances which have become overwhelming.  I felt

enormous grief and very alone, aware that no one in my family realizes the

enormity of  my burnout; and aware that they are unlikely to acknowledge it

ever, since to do so would require them to also acknowledge their part in the

circumstances.  So I had begun to " feel " again, but my feeling were painful and

without hope that the circumstances  would change any time soon.

 

As I meditated, I " saw " Jesus on the cross and focused my gratitude on his

suffering and I felt my devotion to Him, which grew as I watched Him.  As my

devotion grew, I felt the tears flowing and the scene changed:  Jesus was

sitting on a stone seat, cut out of a rock wall.  His clothing was dusty as

were His feet.  I knelt before Him, weeping and kissing His feet, feeling both

devotion for Him, and grief in regard to my circumstances and the relationships

with my loved ones. ( I experienced this two ways:  As a participant in the

action and as an observer of myself and Jesus; both simultaneously.)  I felt

that Jesus knew what I was feeling, both the devotion and the despair, and I

felt His unconditional love for me, which opened the floodgates of my soul.  I

felt His understanding and acknowledgement of my attempts to live His will in my

life.  Then He placed both His hands on my head and began to speak to me softly

in a language I

didn't understand, but realized was Aramaic, His native tongue while on earth. 

I understood that He was blessing me, accepting me just as I was, and offering

me His unconditional love.  As He continued to speak, the vision faded, but I

felt clean and whole and at peace.  It was beautiful and so very healing, and my

unhappiness was gone, replaced by the Promise of His ongoing

Presence.]

It's so nice to hear from you Diane; you have been in my heart (and your

keyboard appears fixed). I wanted to acknowledge your post, yet it is one so

deep for me, that it leaves me here lurking- awaiting others to articulate what

I cannot manage to on my own. Love to you blessed Diane.

Hi Diane,

 

thank you for sharing this; I get a sense of the presence of Christ as I read

this, and I am taken back to some experiences where He has presented Himself to

me, and I have been left with the deep knowing that, underneath and supporting

the suffering of this earth, all things are suspended in a sea of love and one

of the gifts of that love is an unbridled peace and sense of wellbeing.

 

love and strenth for the challenges of your household.

I wasn't going to mention this, but I also had a very vivid dream of Christ

in February, 2006. I was in a very old, ancient, concrete building and he was

kneeling before me washing my feet. No words were spoken, only that he flooded

me with this incredible unconditional love. This was shortly after Katrina and

at a time in my life when I was feeling particularly depressed and unworthy and

down on myself.

 

I wanted to tell the whole world about this unconditional love. I created

several videos the next year that were inspired by this dream, but abandoned the

project after my dog was stolen. Still have them. Maybe one day.

Sorry about your stolen dog Deb... it reminded me of a dream I had a couple

of weeks ago.

 

I was looking at a magazine rack, and of the hundreds of magazines, one

caught my eye in the back. It was beautiful, a glittery purple cover with

diamond hearts speckled throughout. I opened it up and the first page said

" Horses I have loved " and photos of all the horses I have had were there.

The next page was titled " Missing Dogs " and photos of many missing dogs were

there.

 

I find the missing posters of children particularly sad, but since I don't

have children I seem to have put dogs in the missing photos instead (we have

two dogs).

 

So what I gathered from this dream, was despite the harshness and losses, it

is still a beautiful world and life.

Hey Carla - what a beautiful dream - it brings me so much comfort! Thank

you so much for sharing. From now on, I will always think of my dog as being in

your book!

 

I too, think of the missing children and how I better understand what the

families of these children are going through. As your dream so eloquently

describes, all of the " missing " are whole and perfect in this " book of life " in

another heavenly dimension.
