I received a card from a friend that said, “When sea recedes, many treasures and gifts appear that otherwise never would have been noticed.” From a metaphysical or symbolic perspective, I can look at my mother’s death as being sea receding. Her death, part of natural ebb and flow of life, brought me many gifts.

Grieving loss of my mother involved surrender. There came a point where I had to let go and let God, and what a blessing that was! I gradually remembered all that I had been taught around eternal life and truth that she reemerged into pure positive energy as she “went home” to God. Another gift I was reminded of when, through “coincidence” I ended up in office of a wonderful spiritual therapist, is that we are always being guided and we are never alone. Perhaps my grief is just God’s love washing over me. I can’t seem to get away from God’s goodness!

It is her death that inspires me to move forward and get clear about what I would like to experience in next stage of my life. Similar to her spiritual ascension, I feel that I am reemerging into rest of my life with a more grounded belief in idea that Loving Intelligence that created us and all of life is ever present, guiding and directing our ways.

God, you are love that washes away what no longer serves me. During this time of grief, I ask that you wash away any limiting belief I have that would hold me back.
