It’s turning into a lively, eventful year in this writer’s life.

George Ronald Publisher released With Thine Own Eyes this week, my first collaborative experience as a writer, on a work that has deep roots in my spiritual family tree.

My first glance at the publisher’s catalog listing for the book transported me back 38 years to a cozy little apartment in York, Maine. That’s where two of the kindest people I’ve known, Ted and Marian Lippitt, welcomed me with such love that my soul could finally recognize exactly where its home always is.

They helped me, young as I was, understand – and come to believe – that the very fact that we live in an imperfect world is a Divinely inspired invitation to turn toward what is of God, especially within our own hearts, as our best remedy, and response. And to treasure it as dearly as our own sight and life.

Thank you to George Ronald Publisher for helping us share this work, and my enduring thanks to co-authors Diane Iverson and Ron Tomanio whose company on life’s path is in my heart forever. With hearts full of love, and hope, we offer this invitation to explore these life-giving possibilities in such times of burgeoning change:

 ~ setting aside blind imitation of the past

~ learning to build the good rather than fighting evil

~ choosing acts of service out of our spiritual understanding

~ listening carefully to our intuitive voice

~ knowing our purpose

~ regarding our fears as illusory

~ acquiring a sin-covering eye.
