Note from Suzanne: I am participating in a special retreat from March 2nd to the 8th. I will be spending much time in meditation with Sanaya, but far less time on the computer. To optimize this experience (and at the advice of friends) this week will feature past postings from Sanaya which others have highlighted as favorites. New postings will resume on March 9th. Love and blessings to all …

From Tuesday, March 27, 2012

Why are you here? This is what so many wish to know. You are here because
God wanted to experience this existence as you. Do you realize the miracle that
you are? Physically, you are one in a trillion. Metaphysically speaking, you
are one … one with God and all that is. As the One, you add to Its greater
experience. Will that experience be joyful and full of growth, or less than
joyful with little growing? This choice is up to you, for you were given the
gift of free will. This freedom adds excitement to God’s experience. How will
you choose? Any time that you respond to a situation with love, you grow and
God smiles. Of course, God—the Great Spirit—has no lips with which to smile.
You are here to be the smile of God. You are the arms and legs of Spirit. You
are the expression of Life. It is that simple. Do not make it harder than it
is. Smile and be the expression of Love and you are living your life on.

Every time you sit to pray, you acknowledge that there is something greater
than yourself. What is it that you pray for? Instead of asking, we advise you
to give thanks for these things as if they are already your reality. All
exists. God exists. God is, indeed, all goodness and all love. If that for
which you pray adds to the goodness and love of the whole, why, then would you
need to ask for it at all? You need only give thanks for God’s will being done
through you. There is only one Mind. Would not, then, that Mind know not only
every hair on your head but your every desire? The truth is, you need not pray
at all, but it is the most effective way of reminding the human side of you
that you are Spirit. It reconnects you with your Source and allows that Divine
energy to flow more freely. So, yes, pray fervently … prayers of gratitude for
your awakening to these truths.
