In the United States of America, a vital crossroad to the future of this country and to the world lies on the horizon. . . Election Day, November 4, 2008. The day in which every citizen of this country has the opportunity to vote for the people who will form the direction that our country will go in the next several years. As a Spiritual Peacemaker, it is my responsibility to be and to bring spiritual peace, and I am responsible to take physical actions that will sustain a peaceful and loving environment in the world. We are spiritual beings in a physical world. Having good intentions, hoping and praying for peace are not enough.

Perhaps as many of you, as a “spiritual” peacemaker I become extremely focused in the spiritual realm and direct my energy toward “causing” a particular result or in “intending” that things go a certain way. While I believe that is fundamental, intentions still need to be grounded in the physical realm to gain existence in the physical world in which we live.

Please join in visualizing peace, in doing whatever you can to cause peace wherever you are, and get involved in the politics that affect each one of us. Vote for the candidates in whom you believe. Vote for those who will lead our country in the direction that will support the values upon which the United States was built. (By definition, “Politics is the process by which groups of people make decisions that affect others' lives; It is the process observed in all human group interactions by which groups make decisions, including activism on behalf of specific issues or causes.” - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Ideas are gifts from God that arise in word to create form and be put into exsistence in the physical world. Politics is our vehicle to use to have Peace prevail on earth. Let’s use it.

. . . and so it is.
