prayer 8.12.15.4

i have come to completely accept everything AS IS, weather swiftly changing being one aspect of this acceptance.  during hurricane season on our island are quickened swings from sun to clouds to rains as bands of weather pass through in waves.  i used to detest such changes but now i see they are part of the whole as we are.  to resist is truly futile because it is not something we may change, only perhaps on global scale collectively as we live with higher temperatures wreaking havoc.  even the rich and powerful can have no effect because there are so many others they need to include for Success Holistically.  to imagine that we may succeed without the Whole is nonsensical insanity.  we succeed or fail as a Whole, i pray it will be in Cooperation, toward Peaceful Settlement AMeN.

prayer 8.8.15

ABa ShaMaYM i feel grateful for Envelopment in Calm Resting on SaBaT, Ceasing from usual activity, occupation, Gathered In ABa’s Embrace Of Union.  after pounding rains amid hurricane season, i feel grateful for sunshine, stillness, bright warmth of day evaporating moisture.  despite confusion, ABa Remain us in Peace Surpassing expectations.  no matter our failures, lack, short comings, ABa Forgives, Accepts, Cover in Unrestrained Mercy, Ceaseless Support, Unconditional Magnanimity.  we have all gone astray, Shepherd Faithful seek after lost family to Restore Union, Regain Trust, Reestablish Peace.  i feel grateful for ABa’s Fulfillment in Truth AS IS.  our wrongs no matter how great ABa Balance, Heal, Resolve Complete in Ceaseless Devotion AMeN.

prayer 8.4.15

dark cloud gather in horizon, looming thickness preceding storm threatening to shut out sun stretched out in blue sky.  it is early morning, i feel grateful for ABa’s Defense.  mauna kea is clear, muted in purple against bright blue sky feels welcoming.  our family had plans to go over saddle road to enjoy sandy beaches on other side of island but with hurricane approaching, we are staying home bracing for storm, winds, rains.  last year iselle made land fall around the same time.  storm was downgraded from hurricane to tropical storm, albeit having been through countless cyclones living in southern hemisphere, it was nothing like what i experienced.  day of storm was intensely ferocious, more violent than tropical storms i had been through.  giant trees were downed, area hit was out of electricity for over a month with entire areas wiped out of trees.  i don’t recall something as agonizing as iselle’s passing.  ABa’s Protective Presence was very Palpable, Shielding us from damage with exception of downed tree in our driveway.  more Acute and Vehement was ABa’s Abiding Presence Covering our little family in the rainforest.  i felt Safe in ABa’s Embrace then, even more so now a year later, Comforted in ABa’s Faithful Devotion, Eternal Ceaseless Unrestrained LOVE AMeN.

prayer 8.3.15

crisis engender wakefulness, we have another hurricane heading our way, around same time as year before.  last year was a direct hit, in couple days, we will know extent of this storm.  having lived in hawaii for a few years, hurricanes were never experienced until these past two years.  Balance of earth has been tilted toward the negative, we are facing as a generation massive extinction of animals and plants because of the way we choose to live unsustainably, irresponsibly.  to face our natural end is just, so that we may witness our own doing as a whole, to know that every thing affects every thing else, it is all connected.  i feel grateful ABa Is Near to Comfort during times of distress, confusion, tribulation.  we are built for Peace, Harmony, Stability, opposer attempts to create chaos through confusion, disruption, separation.  we know Ideal Pattern, Way Eternal, Best Finest Being, thus we seek after this physically, emotionally, mentally, environmentally, socially, spiritually.  i feel grateful ABa Provides Safety for every soul despite physical demise, Giving Rest to every one in time.  Restoration Is Near, Truth AS IS Clear, Fully Revealed, time for decision of allegiance is here, what is our choice?  LIFE, or death?
