Lotus and the Light exists to foster a sacred unlearning. This is a gentle, reverent space for unraveling that which no longer serves us to make space for loving transformation.
Here everyone is empowered to become the C.E.O. of their own life, free to explore, expand and grow. We have chosen this human experience for just this purpose.
C: Create: Just like our Creator, we are creators, and creating the life of our dreams is the macro aspect of creation in this human experience. Our creativity is then further expressed in every tiny thing we do. Creation is at the heart of who we all are.
E: Experience (Joy): We were created by THE creator as an expression of joy, and we were given this human experience as just one of many opportunities to experience joy.
O: Open: Like a beautiful flower, when we are nourished and loved, we bloom. All of our souls will grow from our human experiences, and if we allow ourselves, we can experience the joy of that expansion during this life.

Not every intention unfolds the way we imagine… and maybe that’s part of the beauty. ✨
On this flight, I quietly held a small hope—an empty seat beside me. No attachment, no insistence… just a soft ask. And this time, it was met. 💺 I’m pleased to say an empty seat happens for me more often than not now!
This isn’t about getting everything we want. It’s about remembering that we are the creators of our experience, and learning to live with intention and holding our desires with openness creates endless possibilities! 💺💫 🌊

There’s something about flying that tunes me in intensely to Spirit. God gave me this channeled written word today and was intent on it happening despite my plans to work. My laptop would not boot up because Spirit had other plans! As I wrote I realized this message had been brewing for hours.
While waiting to board this flight a few hours ago, I had a familiar feeling, a memory trying to emerge but I didn’t quite get the memory attached, I only got the feeling. Now as I sit in the last hour of my flight, the feeling came back, along with the memories. It’s the feeling I felt when I realized how the Holy Spirit could lead me to one belief about something and lead someone else to another belief. How could we both be hearing from god and come to two different conclusions. It felt wrong to assume they were not hearing from God and I was; that they were mistaken. That’s what they believed about me but I know I was not mistaken. This even happens among the greatest theologians, those seemingly most “knowledgeable” in spiritual matters. I used to really struggle with that, for years in fact. I remember my daughter asking me once why I had to know at all? ( that was about a specific topic, I believe the idea of the sin nature of homosexuality). She wanted to know why I had to figure it out? Could I just love and not fully understand? That was unsatisfactory to me. It wasn’t because I had to be right, but because I knew there was a divine truth, and a divine logic that undergirded that truth. A truth that was rooted in perfect love for everyone and wasn’t oppressive. It was a deep hidden knowing that I couldn’t explain so it became a curiosity more than anything. Similarly, this question of the Holy Spirit giving two different answers was a curiosity. Curiosity is a fuel that spirit uses to motivate us. Sometimes it’s rooted in fear and sometimes in love, depending on our vibration (our belief filters). It has certainly fueled my entire spiritual journey, not to mention my entire life! When I was a youth pastor, I used to tell my students to question everything! In fact, around 2013-2014 the tagline for my youth group was “this ain’t your momma’s faith”. It felt so good and true last year when I realized truth is relative in this earthly experience. The exact opposite of what I preached in my very first sermon! I now understood that we are connected to the divine source of truth and perfect love, in fact we ARE divine truth and love, but we don’t remember it fully. We always filter our understanding of ourselves and the world through the lens of our current beliefs which distorts truth and makes it both less than the whole truth as well as different for everyone! It’s always there, just cloudy. In the physical/earth experience, truth is expressed as that which you believe enough to fully integrate it into your experience. Truth is your “knowing”. It’s what you feel safe and secure in. It’s the next step after belief. Once you believe something is true, you start to manifest experiences to test that belief. Responding to those experiences in alignment with that belief, creates the full integration of that belief, cementing it as a truth. If you respond out of alignment with that idea, then it still isn’t “truth” for you (yet). You get many chances to test that new belief and decide which way you want to go with it, moving towards full integration and “knowing” or back towards old beliefs. The time that holds these experiences is a time of turmoil. As you will be straddling two worlds… two frequencies to be more precise. You will have to choose to go back or to go forward, forward meaning adopting that understanding fully, not just in your mind as a belief but in your experience, as a knowing. And that knowing, that truth changes as you shed the layers of your false self. As the real you claws its way out… like the butterfly or the seed, it must shed those old narratives that told it to stay down, to stay in the dark (lower frequency ideas). Once the butterfly was a caterpillar with no hope of ever flying, the possibility of flight was not a truth… until it was. Once the seed breaks through the pod, the butterfly through the cocoon, they see with new eyes, with greater enlightenment and the sky’s the limit! They find new hope and new truths. I use the word “cement” above because every “truth” on this human journey is less than fully enlightened because of those belief filters. This means that as new truths free us, allowing us to transform, expand and soar to new heights, the new truth is also still a shackle that holds us back from greater truth and enlightenment. This is why our journeys are filled with many new birth moments! This is what it is to be born again! Except instead of once, we do it over and over. If we don’t resist it, if we don’t cling to our truths (even the new, enlightened ones), causing them to act like cement, then rebirth flows like the waves in the ocean. We rise and fall and rise and fall, new truths emerging and old ones falling away each time, flowing with the ebbs and flows of our human experience. Whoever drinks of that that water will never go thirsty! That cup overflows and it satisfies more fully than any physical vice or experience.

Where the attention goes, the energy flows!
If my son rolled any number except 7, he would win. With that in mind, he rolled 7 two turns in a row! IYKYK #lawofattraction #catan Note: he still won 🤷♀️

In Dallas for one night, so our first vacation meal had to be Texas barbecue! Hard Eight BBQ did not disappoint! And after the divine brisket and ribs, came some heavenly Cherry Cobbler! #thejoyride #choosejoy #lotusandthelight

One of the changes I began making in 2025 is leveling up the services and businesses I chose if they were not matching my vibe! After 25+ years committed to one airline, I switched it up last year, simply based on customer service. This life is too short to spend it on hold or with unsatisfactory service. I’m also on the hunt for a new cell phone service. After 20+ years with a cell provider, most of which included A+ service, that is no longer my experience. I will not let that kill my vibe at all! But I also prefer to support businesses whose values match mine. I can appreciate that these companies are a perfect match for many people, but they are no longer for me. Thanks @AmericanAirlines for being a high-vibe experience for me every time this past year!

Becoming Fully Alive ✨🎼 Stepping Out of Approval & Into Your Divine Symphony
When are we in God’s will? Always. Our purpose here is to experience human life, and therefore as long as we are living, and experiencing, we are in God’s will. God is the divine creator and we are their creation. God has no interest in mass producing cookie-cutter humans with identical experiences who achieve the same outcomes. What painter wants to paint the same painting over and over? What composer writes the same score over and over. The beauty of creation is in its diversity; the rich beauty and peacefulness of the night sky is best understood alongside the fresh promise of a morning sunrise. The exuberance of a sun-filled day carries greater joy when it is contrasted with the melancholy and sleepiness of a rainy day. Isn’t an elephant just as amazing as a jelly fish, but in a totally different way? And so you are equal parts unique and amazing!
Living in God’s will means living authentically you! And when we each do that, it’s like a symphony to God’s ears. Our souls, and by extension our human form is a divine creation of God; each of us a masterpiece in our own right. God gets the pleasure of experience and expansion through each of us, and those experiences were intended to be unique. We are not just “children” of God, it’s deeper, even more personal. When you look at your children you see aspects of you, but they are not you. We, on the other hand are direct expressions of God, individual drops of divine existence in a divine ocean. Similarly, you are not just a son or daughter, you are also a friend, a lover, a mother/father, a musician, a gardener, an engineer, a dreamer, an entertainer, an adventurer, a healer, you fill in the blanks. These are all deeply personal and unique expressions of you, jut like we are each unique expressions of God.
So the sooner we stop looking to everyone else to find out who we are “supposed” to be and what we are “supposed” to do… when we stop seeking approval from our parents, our pastor, our partner, our friends, our neighbors… the sooner we can look within and get to know and love ourselves. The sooner we do that, the sooner we will find the abundant life we were intended to have. The life that is our birthright, our divine inheritance and is ultimately the key to unity and unconditional love. That is living in God’s will. Everything else is just a “lukewarm” state of unconsciousness… sleeping right through a divine experience.

The benefits of long flights: no internet, lots of meditation time that then inspires channeled writing:
Power leads to freedom⛓️💥, so when we find enough power to experience that freedom, it empowers us and emboldens us to find more of it. It’s a cycle, a flow of energy 🔄.
The question is where are we finding that power? Externally or internally? External power💪 is a limited-time experience that must be conquered or earned again and again and again to maintain. The moment it is realized, it is at its height of momentum and it begins to contract, to lose its efficacy. Politics demonstrates this perfectly. External power is also a zero sum game👌. It limits freedom to a few. All can never enjoy it because by definition external power must be exerted over someone⛓️. Someone has the be at the receiving end when that power is exercised.
Conversely, internal power doesn’t need to be labored for or morally earned. It is your divine right 😇. It is personal and does not require control over anyone but yourself. In fact the very notion is rejected altogether. With this power source💫, freedom is recognized when external circumstances no longer control your joy or peace✌️. And the irony is, the less your circumstances matter, the better they actually become! Internal power💗 and its subsequent freedom⛓️💥 multiply and are expansive. It spreads within you but also can’t help but overflow to others. In fact, it is best enjoyed with others, in community. Once you find the formula for internal power, it can only expand. It never contracts against your will. Like a light, it only dims or turns off if you hit the switch🎚️ and choose to stop the flow of that energy⚡️. It is always your choice, that’s empowerment!
One power source heals❤️🩹, bringing ☮️ , 💜, patience, kindness☺️, even for your “enemies”👿, because in that power you discover there are none! The other power source fractures💔, making enemies of everyone. It divides so that you can conquer. Once you’ve conquered your enemies of yesterday, friends of today will become tomorrow’s enemies. It must be so with external power. 🙈
Which power source does the fruit of your life reflect? 💗✌️/ 👿😡 It’s never too late to switch to a new circuit. 🔌 💫
Spoiler: Divine, unconditional love wins in the end!
