"God is as the wind – touches everything."
This month, like last month is also a month of change.
As I experienced the winds of a few days ago (sitting comfortably nestled in our conservatory) I sensed the wind of change starting to blow. I may watch from a place of safety and yet I am still concerned for the people around me, those I know and those I am yet to meet.
I sense a wind that will blow so strong that it will stir up the debris, so strong that some of us might be blinded. My Angels share with me that this is spiritual and not literal. It is from God. The spiritual climate shift will blow away the things in our lives that have held us back. It will remove things we have battled with in the past. The Angels impress on me that as long as we are in the place God has called us to, we will be safe. For God, in whatever form we believe, is blowing away the debris and preparing us for a dramatic change.
Catherine the Great embraced change: she proved herself forward thinking by deciding she and her son would be inoculated against smallpox (a controversial method in those days, yet it led to 2 million inoculations administered in the Russian Empire in the 1700s) and it is said her example saved a multitude. She also said, "A great wind is blowing, and that gives you either imagination or a headache".
I choose imagination not a headache. I want to embrace the changes and I don't want to be afraid. I want to challenge any sense of discouragement. I want to continue to live the way I believe is right and see others doing the same – living the way they believe is right if it does not take away my right to do likewise.
John Florio once said, "Wisdom sails with wind and time." — May these winds of change bring wisdom to us all. Arohanui.
