I love how it is so easy for me to see how "others" can have love all around them and yet "they" are so busy not letting it in. As I mentioned Spirit requested my attention at the end of the week a couple weeks back. Let me tell you the whole story. AMOR Spiritual Center has been calling in a home and on the way to my eye appointment after a laser procedure Spirit asked me to take a new path as the illusion of traffic was heavy. So rather than stay in the illusion, I took the other path and the moment I honored that knowingness within I knew exactly where I was going. I was going to see AMOR's new home. I drove to the street where a parking space was right in front of the building and called the number on the sign to check on the space. The next day Spirit request that I look on Craigslist for chairs for the new space even thought the illusion was we had not even talked with the leasing agent about the space. So, rather than stay in the illusion I looked on Craigslist to find 63 padded chairs for a dollar a piece. I spoke with the AMOR board and we made arrangements to pick them up. While there, the man selling the chairs asked why we needed the chairs and I told him about AMOR and our new home. (which at this point we had still not made contact with the leasing agent even thought I had made many attempts.) He then states that they had sold many other items they were releasing yet no one had responded to this ad other than me, I said that is because they belonged to AMOR. As he walked outside and loaded the last of the chairs he handed me some money back and said he wanted to help us with our new space. We ended up getting the chairs for less than 38 cents a chair! My wonderful friend on this adventure had just had a massage so when we got back to our house she needed to use the restroom and my instant thought was "I have to unload these chairs before she gets back so she want lose the effect of the massage." See a pattern yet?
Within the next two days I had a pain in my side that was GREAT, and I thought to myself “oh wow I have overdone it again”. On the way into the doctor we met with the leasing agent and secured the space for AMOR’s new home. Later that day at the doctor I had a CT scan and was sent into surgery to remove my appendix. As the folks from AMOR called, and my friends called, and my family called to ask could they be of help my honey told them that I was resting. This last weekend all of our Community loved on me in such a deep way that it was over whelming to take in. Yesterday AMOR moved into its new space and with me recovering from surgery unable to lift anything I got to sit and receive this wonderful community loving each other and me in this very DEEP and LOVING WAY. Did I ever resist at times. Yet last night I was so moved to tears the way Spirit works, I had to share. This all took place and I didn't have to do it all in fact I didn't have to do anything. We have this amazing space that the AMOR community created together - all of us. Not Rev. Allen being super hero, doing it all, setting up a pattern as I have so many times before only to become bitter when I felt taking advantage of. Spirit stepped in and asked me nicely to sit and enjoy the LOVE that surrounds me every day and know that the work is in knowing it is complete in the mind of the Divine and we get it watch it manifest. And most of all we don't have to force anything into being.
So here I am once again grateful for my appendix and the lessons I am learning along the way. The best part is I am allowing the love of the community that I love so deeply each and every day to love me in return. The Gift of Cause and Effect in ACTION.
I love you
Rev. Allen
