Transitions.

I have been reading a book by my Meditation Master called "Empowering the Soul through Meditation," and he has said so many things which I feel that I am now comfortable with and know about through my own experience under His Graceful guidance.  I have to stretch my sense of trust and surrender about waiting for a job and being okay with my circumstance of uncertainty as I transition.  Whether that is a new direction, a new location or a combination of the two I don't exactly know but I am moved to a deeper level of surrender and trust as I go through the process.
All is well and when doors close it is for the good.  My first teacher taught that everything happens for the best and truly it does.  I read a question on a post today asking about what I would have done differently etc.  I don't think that I would have done anything differently because acceptance of what is in the present is the most important focus and I wouldn't be experiencing this moment as the person I am if things had been different.
Meditation is the key to finding the soul and connecting with the Universal power that empowers our soul and links us together in our common humanity.  With so much intolerance among ethnic and religious groups I hope people will choose the high road so to speak and try to reach out to others and allow them their rights as citizens to practice their form of religious prayer.  I read one of the Masters on my path say that humility is the ornament of the saints and with humble hearts all can be overcome.  It is the ego that cries out for victory and domination.  Surrender is sweet but it comes at a cost because the path that leads to detachment is often one that causes emotional response while the ego let's go of its hold on the soul.  It is really the pain of separation from the Higher Power that is the underlying source of suffering according to the Saints and Mystics.  Surrender is about letting go and letting God!
If you have a great longing to know God you will find Him within and this has been the message across time.  Love always comes through for the seeker.  Love is never ending and timeless.  Share the love inside with others and let your love light shine in the world.  Be accepting of others even if your path teaches that they are "wrong."  Let go and let God!  Let love shine on all you meet and see their faces as that of your God or Higher Power.
Remember love is always the best answer to any problem and as the Bible says "Love conquers all."
Practice meditation daily and follow your path with love and joy.
