RECOVERY AND SPIRITUAL AND NEW LIFE AWAKEING AFTER MANY YEAR'S OF ADDICTION.
Should your blankets be torn may your breezes blow warm.
May your treasures be what you find.
May the burdens you bear, like your bounties be shared.
May you leave something good behind.
Would the sky and the land rise to your command.
May your senses come as the night.
Live in peace with the earth, as in death as in birth.
May you prosper and have a good life!
In recognition of Mother's Day this Sunday, here is a poem acknowledging and honoring Christian mothers everywhere.
Heaven lit up with His mighty presence,
As all the angels looked down,
Today the Lord was placing the jewels
In all the mothers' crowns.
As He held up a golden crown
As all the mothers looked on,
He said in His gentle voice,
"I just want to explain each stone."
He held the first gem in His hand,
But the radiance couldn't match His own.
For He was the light of Heaven
Reflecting off each of the stones.
"The first gem," He said, "is an emerald,
And it's for endurance alone,
For all the nights you waited up
For your children to come home.
For all the nights by their bedside
You stayed till the fever went down,
For nursing every little wound,
I add this emerald to your crown."
"A ruby, I'll place by the emerald,
For leading your child in the right way,
For if you hadn't taught them about Me,
They wouldn't be here with you today.
For always being right there
Thru all life's important events,
I give you a sapphire stone
For the time and love you spent."
"For untying the strings that held them
When they grew up and left home,
I give you this one for courage."
Then the Lord added an amethyst stone.
"I'll place a stone of garnet," He said,
"For all the times you spent on your knees,
When you asked Me to take care of your children,
And them for having faith in Me."
"I have a pearl for every little sacrifice
That you made without them knowing,
For all the times you went without
To keep them happy, healthy, and growing."
"And last of all I have a diamond,
The greatest of all gems,
For those mothers who lost their children
When they came home to heaven before them."
"This is the most precious sacrifice,
So I give the most precious stone,
For I know just how you felt,
I too lost a child of My own."
After the Lord placed the last jewel in,
He said, "Heaven is now complete,
For every mother has her crown of jewels,
And all her children are at her feet."

THE TRUTH ABOUT HOLY ANGELS
Angels: Are the Covenant Enforcing Agents of the Throne of the Most High God. We are the CIA of the Spiritual World, in which when the Great Spirit speaks, or when the voice of man is heard, we will divinely intervene in the lives of man, but we will only move, when it is the Will of our Great Spirit (God)
"Now Faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things (we) hope for, being the proof of things (we) do not see and the conviction of their reality (faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses)" (Hebrews 11:1 Amplified Version).
Therefore, have Faith that it is done, and what ever you need, want or desire, and you have Faith that you shall receive it, it will be the substance of your Faith that your desires shall be manifested unto you....BELIEVE!

Symbolism of Dragonflies As a creature of the wind, the dragonlfy totem represents change. It's iridescent wings are incredibly sensitive to the slightest breeze, and so we are reminded to heed where the proverbial wind blows - lest we run into stormy weather. Dragonflies are also creatures of the water, and any creature whose habitat is in, or around water carries symbolism relative the the subconscious, or "dreaming" mind and thoughts.
This is because in the animal world, water is symbolic of the subconscious mind ("deeper mind," "dreaming mind") and relates to the thoughts we have in relaxed/meditative/sleeping/subconscious states.
Quick-list animal symbolism of the dragonfly:
prosperity
good luck
strength
peace
harmony
purity
These symbolic meanings of dragonfly are particularly associated in Asian (Japan) and Native American (Plains region) circles.
Dragonflies carry messages that deal with deeper thought - and they ask that we pay attention to our deeper thoughts and desires.
Further symbolic insect meaning of dragonfly comes into play when we observe the dragonfly's mode of transportation as it skitters across the top of water surfaces. This implies that our deeper thoughts are surfacing and we must be mindful of the outcome we wish to have.
The dragonfly is a reminder that when our deeper thoughts rise to the surface we must pay attention - there are lessons to be learned, and we are also reminded that what we think is directly proportionate to what we "see on the surface." ...In short, our thoughts (even the deeper ones that we might not be as in-touch with as we are with our conscious thoughts) are responsible for what we see in our lives - in our physical surroundings.
The dragonfly gives us a very powerful meditation tool. Close your eyes, and focus on a thought - let it rise to the surface of your mind's ocean - see that thought float lightly up to the water's surface. Now upon the top of a smooth, calm glass-like surface - visualize that thought moving across that water - sliding across - smooth and fast.
This exercise is useful when we want to visualize positive outcomes in a situation. We see the thought of hope happily moving across an ocean of peace (peaceful mind) and skitting to a perfect outcome.
Lastly it should be noted that the Dragonfly lives a short life, and it knows it must live to the fullest with what it has. This lesson is huge for each of us. When you see a dragonfly, be aware of the gifts it has to offer by keeping its animal totem meanings in mind.
I hope you have enjoyed these observations on the animal symbolism of the dragonfly.
