'Have a Blessed and Wonderful Winter Solstice'.
This shortest day of the year marks a blessed heavenly shift when the dark begins to recede and the light to expand again.The winter solstice is forever a time of rebirth, peace and renewal.
The word solstice means “the sun stands still.” And at the Winter Solstice we reach the depth of that darkness with the longest night of the year. Darkness has at last reached its peak. Just like ourselves, we all have moments of darkness, when we don't know how much deeper we will go before the light starts to return (or even if it will). But with much prayer and forgiveness, not just for ourselves, but to everyone we have caused directly or indirectly harm, hurt and pain, We know that the Omnipotent and forgiving God will bless us and lift us out of our darkness within and bring us to welcoming Light, Peace, Unity and Harmony.
How welcoming to us all as the 'Sun stands still', would the idea of the world standing still just long enough for us to breathe and take stock of our lives!
The quiet peaceful calmness of a long winter’s night welcomes us all to look within and nurture our connections to Spirit within. With the end of the longest night the dark is defeated with the Return of the Sun, the return of light, hope and promise.
Stop for a moment and Think of how much energy and effort that we into the external preparations for Christmas and the New year winter holidays and realise that God has given us now in this time of darkness, the perfect time to honor and look towards our own inner lights with renewed attention, awareness, and gratitude!
We are all given gifts by God, and it is up to each one of us to seek, knock and ask for these gifts. May you be granted with feelings of love and gratitude to arise and refresh your spirits and give praise, glory and thanks to God for every gift that you have been given.
May Light, Truth, Peace ,Unity and Harmony be with you all brothers and sisters, Blessed Winter Solstice to you all.
