If you remember to come before God like the little child that you are, you will pray - or talk to God - as often as a little child comes to a parent, which is, on average, every couple of minutes. As soon as he tires of a game, wants a drink, fell and hurt himself and is crying and wants to be healed and consoled, he comes to his Daddy's knee. As soon as she finds a dandelion or buttercup, she brings it to her Mama to be put in a glass of water. As soon as she wants to share a giggle about the new puppy, she and the puppy climb into her Mama's lap. Every few minutes, we need to come close to our Loving Divine Parent. Because we need to share our lives with God - every couple of minutes. Picture a child's face, turned up to you. You are his steadfast sun, whether it is bright day or dark night. She thinks of you as an ocean of infinite possibilities, mysterious, of great depth, able to do anything. So pray to your Loving Divine Parent in the day or in the night, because God is Everlasting Light for you to turn your face towards, Light to guide your path. God is an Ocean of Infinite Possibilities to sit beside in your soul. Looking into the Divine Ocean's depth, remembering the mysterious depths of the wise and loving Heart of God, gives you courage and peace and joy. When a child stands beside a precipice, he clutches his father's hand. When a child climbs a rocky, unfamiliar path, she follows her mother, who leads the way. When your life's path becomes up hill, strewn with obstacles, when you come to a precipice and feel hopeless, reach for your Father's Hand. He will guide you. If you fall, in weariness or despair, Your Mother will see you're unable to follow. She will come back to find you and carry you. God is both Father and Mother for us, strong and caring, our Guard and Place of Safety. A child comes open-armed to you, expecting love, expecting a blessing. Do you come, arms wide open to your Loving Parent, our God, expecting a blessing, even in the wildest storm of circumstances? Do you trust there is sun behind the wind, the heavy clouds, the lashing rain? Do you have enough trust to patiently wait until the storm is over, no matter how long it lasts, how bad it gets? Do you patiently and confidently wait until God lets the Light of His face shine upon you and calm does return? The sweetest time of day is when a child relaxes, laying his head against a parent's chest, when a child snuggles up, calmed by the sound of her mother's heart. How often do you close your eyes, quiet yourself, lay your head upon your always-waiting Divine Parent's chest, listen to those Ever-Faithful Heartbeats, sending torrents of Divine, Healing Love through your body and soul? Be still. Know that He is your God. Rest in Him. Don't say a word. Trust that His Heart is in Divine communication with yours, whether you hear words or not. If you are focused on God, if God has your attention, then God is free to speak and act within you. And God, our Divine Parent's actions towards you, His child, are always the same: Divine, healing love.
