White light

By Karen Scott Leave a Comment

Image of light in the sky

Image: zunlightimages

Pure is white
Not fractured light
Essential fine and calm

It is the Truth
Of Spirits whole
Of Ones who cause no harm

Of Ones who see
Eternity
Is written in the Soul

The blessed
And the knowing
Sharing all that makes us whole

The Easter gift

By Karen Scott 4 Comments

Image of a sunset

Easter — Eostre,
New Beginnings
Bunnies, eggs
New life abounds;
From a distant
Time and country
Symbols formed
And shaped around

Pagan stories
Filled with myth
Power placed in
Nature’s kind;
But One had
A different message
All within
One Blessed Mind

How to teach us
Such a learning
Held in deepest
Love for all;
Only such a One
Could teach
And lift us up
From such a fall

Remembered for His sacrifice
As if He Thought His body real
But He knew through His forgiveness
Each and every mind would Heal

Master, Teacher
Dearest Son
Brother of all men
Is He
Christ within;
Each child of God
This message True
He brought to me

Easter stories
Bring a blessing
To forgive
Our heavy heart
By extending
Love to others
Forgiveness, the
True Healing Art

Deep calm

Waves of soothing calmness
Flowing through my heart

Spilling over all distress
It’s the healing art

Rippling subtle energies
From the Source of Love

Emanating peace and light
Within and from Above

Prayer to surrender a healing session

By Karen Scott Leave a Comment

Image of a face and hand

Dear God,

I release the outcome of this healing session
into Your Loving Hands.
Knowing that You are the Presence and
the Power, here and now.
Use me as Your instrument,
and imbue my mind with
the thoughts You would have me think,
the words You would have me say,
and the actions You would have me perform,
so Your truest healing miracles can occur.
Bless the one I’m assisting
and let nothing of my small self pass to them.
Let them only receive what You would have them receive,
and experience what You would have them experience;
for their healing, happiness and peace.
May they experience only You in me.

Thank You
Amen.

Prayer for a healing session

Loving Creator,

I ask You to be present
with me now.
Draw me close to You now.
Raise me up to be with You now.
Be with me during this healing session
and guide me in Your wisdom and Your Light.
I ask for my heart and mind to open,
so that all that takes place is of
the highest, most beautiful vibrations.
Bless me to do Your work here in this
moment so that all sorrow is removed
from myself and those I assist.
Let me be a full reflection
of Your most Radiant light,
so that all who are in my presence
see only You in me.

Thank You
Amen.

The healing power of confession, and of hearing others confess

By Karen Scott Leave a Comment

Image of a butterflyConfession, now known as the Rite of Reconciliation, is a Catholic sacrament in which we share our transgressions with a priest.

According to church law, the priest has the power to absolve the sins of anyone who confesses to him.

Many non-Catholics don’t understand why we should confess. Why we should bear our souls to a perfect stranger, or worse still, to a parish priest who has known us since infancy.

Yet, through my work, I’ve come to understand the incredible healing power of confession. Continue reading

How to be an instrument of healing

By Karen Scott Leave a Comment

Image of Healing handI feel that grace and healing are intrinsically linked.

They merge together to create moments of love — which is the greatest healer.

And, as we know, love can manifest in many different forms such as joy, laughter, or even tears of relief.

Like grace, healing is not something that can be decided upon.

We can decide that we want to be a vehicle for healing or that we would like to receive some healing. But we can’t decide when, where or what form the healing takes. That’s not our role. Continue reading

Moments of grace in life’s little moments

By Karen Scott 2 Comments

Image of a blue eyeOne of my earliest recollections of the gift of grace in my life was an interaction I shared with Sister Catherine, my 1st grade teacher. I loved Sister Catherine in an all-encompassing way.

One day, we were discussing names and she said to me that my given name, Karen, was the Danish derivative of her chosen name, Catherine. She told me that our names mean ‘purity’.

I was only 6 years old, but the feeling of expansion and the sense of space I experienced in that moment remains with me today.

She joined with me in likeness, through our mutual purity — hers chosen, mine given — and gave to me the gift of grace.

It’s not something that can be planned.

It can be desired, but even the desire for a moment of grace seems to make it elusive. Continue reading

Surrender

By Karen Scott 2 Comments

Image of heart-shaped water drop

Image: Spirit-Fire

The Voice sounds in my heart
And I respond

Like a dance between two shores of existence
My soul sways to and fro in reply

Until it ceases
And the silent Presence engulfs me

Safe
At peace
Cocooned in softness

My living presence expands and contracts
As I throb with life

A healing has begun
