March 27th 2016. The Jesus Girls.

“He’s every fear and every hope and every single sin. He is the universe, the love you’ve been imagining. Oh my Lord.”

Happy Spring, Happy Ostara, Happy Easter, and heck, just Happy Day! You deserve it! Today I’m thinking of two amazing women I know: both with birthdays this week; both in intimate, soul-exploring, heart-exploding relationships with their Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. I never used to understand these kinds of relationships; these unhuman, intangible, irrational relationships. There was no logic, no proof. The religious people I knew tended to be quite mean, churches made me very uncomfortable, and I was disgusted with the atrocities people could commit in the name of their religions. I didn’t have a connection to anything Divine with a capital D, or so I thought. As it turns out, I am, and we have all been, connected all the time. These are actually very human, very tangible, and very rational relationships because we are all The Divine. Every relationship we have Is. This. Remember that amazing moment in Les Miz when Valjean sings “…to love another person is to see the face of God”? As a teenager I let that go, but I can see Jesus now, perhaps differently than my Christian friends do, but I can see him now as one of many Ascended Masters. I can see how his story establishes a path to The Light and connection to The Universe, and if that’s how you get there, then so be it. I got there in a different way, but so what? I do believe we can all hold space for each other’s beliefs. I don’t believe true Christian values include condemning and harming other people, and it’s some peoples’ ego, corruption, greed, and love of power that have made it appear that way to many of us outsiders. And I know my dear friends aren’t having any of that. They breathe, speak, and sing with love, only love, and I sincerely honour that.

When Jann Arden sings “…I am ashes. I am Jesus. I am precious. Could I be your girl? Could I be your girl?” I hear them asking with breathless anticipation.

When Jann Arden sings “…he is the very breath you feel inside your lungs at night, he is the bitter wind who’s drying up your appetite, he is the darkness that seeps into your fading light. Oh my Lord.” I hear them sighing with familiarity.

When Jann Arden sings “…I am worthless sounds, compared to all your perfect words.” I feel it, too. Thanks to Universe Radio for popping this on the television as I changed channels away from some pretty scary news reports the other night. I got it. With love, light, and song… ~Melissa~

Listen here: Could I Be Your Girl * by Jann Arden * from the album Living Under June (1994)

Addendum: as I was writing this post, my computer froze for a good five minutes. When I was back up and running, the only email I’d missed was in my spam folder, from a Jesus Mazzarella. Mazzarella is Italian for little bat/club/sledge-hammer… like I said, I got it. No need to hit me over the head, Jesus. Lol ♥
