The Spirit goes forth each hour of the day.
Its course is unknown to mortal man.
Have you seen the Spirit at work?
Do you know where it will rest?
Your home is visited when you awaken.
Do you pray and seek a sacred day?
In the evening the Spirit sees you safely home.
As in the morning you receive its care.
We rest at night and reflect on our day.
We dream of what tomorrow will bring.
The Spirit makes note of our thoughts and dreams.
Little do we think of the Spirit at work.
Manmade laws change with the times.
No longer must a widow marry her husband’s brother.
The laws of the Spirit are fixed and firm.
They do not change because of the way we worship.
Worship helps us focus on what is good.
Our words and songs reflect how we honor the One.
People blame the Spirit or God for bringing ruin.
They do not know the power of their own thoughts and words.
We look for heroes to save us from strife and trouble.
We do not look within and claim the Spirit’s power.
Please honor the wisdom of these words.
The power of the Spirit works within and through all.
Sacrifices and gifts are not required.
They do not bring greater favor with God.
Each worthy child receives love, guidance, and care.
The Spirit responds to goodness and love,
The earth provides food, shelter, and nourishment.
Do we honor her and respect her rules and laws?
The Spirit energizes and brings knowledge and wisdom.
Do we honor the Spirit and learn its rules and laws?
The One who has created all is worthy of worship.
Do we honor Him with our thoughts, words, and deeds?
You have a noble heritage as a son or daughter of God.
Awake or asleep does not change your status as His child.
You may wander the world seeking riches and fame.
Knowing comes when you learn what you already have within.
The Spirit is with you in the day and in the night.
Its light will shine within you as you awaken and learn.
Till you know, look for those who are wise.
Honor their words and learn from their instruction.
Each wise word is like a good seed.
It will take root and grows in the heart and mind.
Wise words will grow and bear noble fruit.
They will nourish and feed your soul.
Your character will slowly be changed.
You will find you are taking a noble journey.
Pray for help till you learn and understand.
Select friends that are noble, good, and wise.
You will find you have the love and friendship of God.
Soon others will look to you for guidance and instruction.
Love is a power that is beyond compare.
A love guided Spirit can accomplish wondrous things.
Each day you receive guidance and instruction.
Each day you survive despite doing foolish things.
You are here to experience, learn, and grow.
You have a noble calling and purpose.
Throw open the doors that shut out the world.
Take the first step on the journey of a worthy child.
Like an infant you will experience newness and wonder.
At times you will fall and be afraid.
The Spirit surrounds and protects each new-born child.
With each step a wondrous pathway opens before you.
The river of life is sometimes turbulent and sometimes calm.
Each experience will develop in you a nobleness and power.
We cry when life is not the way we like.
We look to the distant past for answers.
Each day we set our thoughts on something new.
We fail to walk in a sacred path.
We have lost the feeling of love and joy.
We do not see how wondrous life can be.
We look for knowledge and wisdom.
We do not find them in looking at things.
Each day we fail to awaken the Spirit.
Each day we do not welcome the Spirit in our heart and mind.
The Spirit awakens when we look within.
There we will find the kingdom we seek.
We have many desires but have not love.
We chase away the good with our fear of change.
Grace and love seem impossible to find.
We do not unlock the doors of the heart and mind.
We want friends but turn them away.
We fear all that is different and new.
Our dwelling can be loving, peaceful, and good.
By looking within we will find the way.
We can rejoice and live a happy life.
We can dwell in harmony and peace.
We can ignite the flame of the Spirit.
We can grow in knowledge and wisdom.
We can remove the clouds and veils that block our view.
We can begin to live as a worthy child.
Yes, we can be wonder workers.
We can delight in sharing our love each day.
We can be like sages and teachers.
We can show others to the way.
With love,
Rev Dorris
