"The well of Providence is deep.
It's the buckets that we bring
to it that
are small."
~
Mary Webb
In this touchstone reflection we
begin with the gift of IMAGINATION.
Please imagine a nearby well. It's not an ordinary well. People consider it sacred. Many believe it is bottomless. You can obtain pure, delicious, health-giving water there. For that you need a
container.
You can also go the well for comfort, encouragement, and guidance. You can go to draw up strength and
courage to face a challenge, compassion to forgive yourself and others, for renewed hope, for love and joy when you feel empty.
For those things, you are the bucket. Prepare to receive abundantly by trusting that you are worthy. Clear your mind. Open your heart. Let go of false pride. As you
approach the well, be the real, honest, beautiful, imperfect, human person you are. If you feel awkward doing this, admit it, and give it a try. Ask for what you need. Be willing to be surprised by what you receive.
You can imagine going to this well as you start your day, before you go to sleep, or anytime you wish.
Ask and you shall receive.
With love and faith,
Charlene
