“We are all meant to be mothers of God…for God is always needing to be born.” ― Meister Eckhart
Normally in meditative literature we are used to seeing ourselves being compared to children, and the Divine being compared to a mother or father figure. But what if we, as Meister Eckhart does in the quote above, reverse that and instead think of God or the Divine seeking continually to be born into the world and express itself through us?
What if we think of ourselves as the Mothers of God? How does this change our perception of who we are and what we might be capable of?
The question to then enquire in our meditations and contemplation’s for the beginning of 2014 and beyond is
- “What is it that I feel within me that is seeking to be born and express itself through me at this time?”
- Or alternatively “What will be my labour of love this year?”
Sit down for a few moments, see yourself as a mother of the divine. Go deep within yourself and see what the Universe has placed there there waiting to be born, wanting to be birthed.
Wishing you all the very best for 2014!
