When we
think of Spirit as a vibrant, living force of energy, we as well properly
attribute to it Divine Wisdom. As an emanation of the Soul, which is engendered and
sustained by that wondrously mystical primal force of God, Spirit is the
ever-present medium binding God and man. Spiritual energy is The Christ,
the Holy Spirit, that which affords our communion with God through prayer: a harmonious force which heals both
soul and body.
“… mystical primal force of God,
Spirit …”
We were witness to the moving, mystical primal force of God, Spirit …
Vi and I meet from time-to-time to
share our spiritual progress. Now, 65
plus years old, the memory effect of ‘Residential
School’ is haunting. Though our childhood histories are worlds apart, our
spiritual souls are one. As our conversation grew, I asked if women in her
Tribe are allowed to be Elders and healers, and also asked if she’d say aloud the
words … ‘Creator’ and ‘I AM’ in her rich, ancient language of the Dené,
and as Vi became one with her Creator she began praying in Dené. I was on the periphery,
witnessing the almost visible mystical force surrounding her. Vi knows she’s here for God’s Purpose … possibly
to be an Elder for her Dené people

Thank-you for the beautiful devotional Garry. The theme of my own morning devotions and readings today were the Holy Spirit.
