As we enter into the Holy Week of Easter celebration for the Christian world I cannot help but share this beautiful new version of this song by Kelley Mooney. It gives me goosebumps both spiritually and physically. I cannot listen too many times.
I wish you blessings as you listen and encourage you to share!

It isn’t the wisdom of our minds that draws people closer … it is the wisdom of our hearts.
You see, mental wisdom can be gained completely without connection – we can attain it through books and research. Facts, figures, and data are good and useful things. It helps us to understand, build, and develop the outer world around us. It is the knowledge of things.
However, the wisdom of the heart can only be attained by drawing near to each other. It takes connection and willingness to receive of the insights of another soul. It is the stuff that holds life, and lives together on this journey through time and space. We are not here by happenstance. We are here with a purpose, connected in proximity and timing to particular souls for a reason. Connecting on the level of our heart wisdom allows us to glimpse into that purpose. We see the value and gifts of another and how they intertwine and compliment our own. Connecting through heart wisdom actually changes the world within – it expands and evolves life. It creates divine connections. It creates inner change. It grows and fosters love, which is the true essence of who we are. It is heart wisdom that energetically shifts the world because it is the knowledge of the soul. It is this wisdom that I cherish.
Share your heart’s wisdom and be blessed!
THE QUIET ROAR
Inside every opportunity is the chance to trip and fall
upon our fears and indecisive groaning.
We begin with hope brimming from the sparkle of that
which we covet to achieve.
We set our course and brace ourselves for
work, wish, and wonder.
Alas the day comes when a mountain appears before our eyes,
looming ever bigger than we imagined.
It is not our reality but our paradigm of self disbelief
wanting to cast a daunting shadow upon that fanciful dream.
That is the day we come to know just how deep our desire is planted,
how well watered and cared for it might be.
We whisper to ourselves the secret question we dare not admit,
which queries whether we are “enough.”
Indeed, we quake at the thought that we have not enough of
something vital for the journey.
Have we stepped too far and gone past the brink
of all that we know we can do, be, and have?
Pause … and stand in the stillness of the fear for but a time and listen
for that even smaller voice inside our soul.
The one that knows the mighty truth of our unique
and everlasting spirit.
“I am” I hear in the quietest voice buried
deep inside my heart.
Again it squeaks, and stronger still until it turns into
a deep and quiet roar.
“I AM” I speak, with growing confidence, all that
I imagine that I can be.
And with that spoken declaration comes the brilliant truth
at long last tumbling through my core.
It is not fear that will determine if I have what
I need to carry forth.
It is the choice to hear within the ever knowing
truth of my existence.
I am all that I shall need to walk the next step of my path,
the one that I came to dream of and create.
And fear must, as the laws of life command, slip ever sulkily away
leaving only truth, and trust to stand.
Fear shall not win as long as I listen to that still small roar
upon which I choose to follow.
