Jesus,
Let’s practice a visualization exercise?
I’m seeing a person.
He’s walking up to me.
He’s saying to me,
“Do you think you are a spiritual teacher, here and now?
You aren’t worth it.
You don’t live as you share.
You lie to us all.
You are not honest,
with yourself and with us all.
You haven’t compassion.
…”
And then he’s saying to everyone the same words, about me.
I’m seeing I am standing with you, Jesus.
You hold my hand.
And we are listening to him.
Listening to understand
what he’s thinking
and what he’s feeling.
Only listening.
No prejudice.
Only listening.
No judgment or reaction.
Only listening.
Nothing else.
And listening by your quiet heart.
Amen.
PTH
