A Journey to the Child Within
This month invites us to pause, meditate, and reflect on the child within each of us. I would like to share two meditations that helped me reconnect with my own child within.
- Close your eyes, relax, and visualize yourself as a beautiful little child preparing for your journey into the world. The Creator takes us in His arms and says, “I am sending you on a spiritual journey. You will know dysfunction, fear, struggle, joy, and sadness. I will give you free will so you can make your own decisions, and I will also give you the spirit and energy of love to share with others. I promise to walk beside you. At times, you may forget the strength and energy within you and feel the battle between ego and spirit. Remember, I am always near. Call upon Me, and I will guide and strengthen you on life’s journey, helping you rediscover the beauty and love within. Remember My words: ‘A little child will lead you. Ask, and you shall receive.’ Our Creator wants only the best for us. Don’t walk life’s journey alone. Walk with the Creator, and you will be guided back to the child within—your teacher of love.”
- Now, let’s continue the journey back to our loved child. Visualize yourself entering a beautiful golden corridor and walking toward a magnificent golden door. Touch the door, and it opens. In the darkness beyond, you see a small golden light shining in the distance. Walk toward it. As you draw closer, it grows more radiant until you are bathed in the golden light of peace and serenity. Breathe in its calm, positive energy. Then, in the distance, you notice a beautiful pink light moving toward you. It grows stronger until it surrounds you, joining the golden light with the light of love. As you rest in this sacred energy, you see a little child coming toward you. As the child draws near, you realize the child is you. The child leaps into your arms, hugs you, and says, “I’ve been waiting for you. I have come to give you the energy and power of love. I am that energy, for I am your child.” Hold your little child and walk back to the golden door. If you embrace your child, the golden light of peace and serenity and the pink light of love will follow you. Bring that child with you on life’s journey, and you will see the child in all that you experience. We come into this world as simple, beautiful little children. Let us pray that, as we walk through life, we are restored to that simplicity. We are God’s children. We walk and talk with the Creator, and one day we will come home to Him. Wherever you go, meet life with a positive attitude. The golden light of peace and serenity and the pink light of love will be with you.
This month, take time to relax, meditate, and remain open to God’s messages. He speaks through all of life’s experiences and guides us on the journey.
Enjoy the rest of the fall and may the child within continue to share the gift of love with us all. God bless you.
