Together

May 2020 post by Tim Walters ~  Well, we are still here and that in itself is a little amazing to me.   Or as someone once said to me, “That is most odd.”  This has indeed been a strange few weeks.  The world which I thought I knew in some small way has turned sideways and all around and may never be the same again.  And the truth is that can be more than just a bit scary.  But the good thing is we remain surrounded by many who despite all the fear and the uncertainty and the multiple things that go bump in the night have managed to allow us to retain some small memory of the normal.
And we can build on that.

I will admit again that I have indeed been very scared many times over the past weeks, and I sense that I shall retain some of that same fear in the months to come.  But somehow, I have also managed to remain firm in my belief that there is a God out there who indeed does love me and cares for me and believes in me. Some too may say again “That is most odd.”

I know too that in some way this place that we call Centering Space will find a way to respond to those fears, frailties and uncertainties.  That there will still be a place where I can set aside for even a short time the realities of these moments and feel a sense of safety and belonging.  That together we, and it is a we, will step out of the darkness. Maybe not yet into the brightness but into a slowly forming light that expands and grows until it once again holds us all together.

Peace.
