Practice to spot angelic presences

Alan Jones
December 2011 (Vol. XXIV, No. 11)

It takes practice to spot angelic presences. But practice alone is not enough, unless one can practice being taken by surprise.

Quote of the Day

Blessing offers us a personal consciousness-raising practice, a spiritual adventure bringing sensitivity and gratitude into the foreground of our lives. While we all have moments when a blessing rises spontaneously to our lips, the path of blessing can become a way of life. Through the practice of blessing we develop an ever-deepening receptivity to the abundant love and joy flowing through creation. We learn to accept that love, absorb it into our souls, and offer it back to the Source with joy. In this way we come to feel the Presence of God move within us and through us.
