So I just invite you right where you are to place your awareness,
Your soft awareness with your breath.
And all the great mystics of all times have always known the power,
The gentle power of recognizing the breath.
And so taking a deep breath,
Just holding it for a moment,
Releasing it.
Once again,
The awareness of the breath,
Beholding us in the light of love,
Just letting go,
Letting go,
Letting go.
And in this present moment,
I recognize that the only one present right where you are and right where I am is that open-heartedness of the infinite,
That God presence,
That God that has been called love.
God is love and love is God.
And moving into the very center like an open door,
Open those doors of your heart.
Even taking both hands at your chest like you're opening your chest,
You're opening those doors of heart.
And just allowing yourself to enter into that beautiful,
Beautiful altar place of heart.
What I recognize with allowing the very bead of breath,
The very umbilical cord of golden breath to lead us into this sanctuary of heart,
This altar,
That your name is written upon that altar.
And your name,
Your God-given name is love.
And all that you are is that love.
Each of us,
We are in relationship.
We are connected in and of love,
The great fire of love that is always kindled within the heart of all humanity.
So just sensing that,
Knowing that that umbilical cord of golden light,
That golden thread has will and always forever and beyond forever behold the connection of who you are in relationship to the greater wholeness.
So just giving thanks for this truth.
I know that the essence and the warmth of the fire from this place of altar of heart,
It ripples in its warmth,
In its compassion,
In and through every aspect of who you are,
Those who love you and those whom you love.
It moves forth into family.
It has a way of melting away discords and misunderstandings.
And it moves and trickles forth into our communities with that healing balm of love,
Seeing all beings,
All persons as that light of the infant.
It moves through all systems.
It feeds all people.
It raises those who have been ill and it gives forth the goodness of God.
So I give thanks for this day.
I give thanks for this opportunity to just be,
To be love,
To be love.
So on Thanksgiving,
I just affirmed that this light never goes out,
This warmth,
This flame.
It is eternal.
So I bless this day with great gratitude and knowing that we are all related.
And so it is.
Amen.
