Buttercups and Mountains. |

During a flight from Iceland to the UK, November 1, 2004. Teacher Katrina (A Celestial Artisan). Received by Helen Whitworth. Katrina: “If you find yourself seated in a field of buttercups, the glory of the world is apparent within the small shining golden cups of yellow. You take a moment and delight in the scene of nature and of creation. “When you are seated in a harsh cold wasteland do you see the same beauty? These scenes that give rise to awe and reverence may not be seen in the same glad-filled mind as are the buttercups, but the presence of the Creator is without doubt. “The glory and majesty of such a scene is raw, it is harsh and it is powerful. It can make you feel huge or it can dwindle you to insignificance. “Sometimes, when you meet with such strength of naked energy and power within your emotional reality, you may wish to turn your back, hoping instead for the field of buttercups, but the strength of such bleak situations should be reveled in for what it is, just as you revel in standing (physically) in such a place with the wind chilling you to the bone. “It is as much a part of the God’s creation, such bleak times (in your life), as the fun filled days of laughter and joy, but there is a need to recognise in these moments the powerful forces that shape you as an individual. These come from the raging rivers and solid mountains more ever than the meadows of flowers. © 11:11 Progress Group. |
