Inspiration
The inspiration for this blog post literally began with new shoes I recently received.
Oh, how the Universe speaks to us if we so dare be observant. The symbolism, the timing, the meaning…
Additionally, I have had this image for a long time and never really knew what to do with it. A corresponding poem and or devotional never materialized. Then, just this morning words spontaneously lifted as if out of the air and directed me to a poem related to this image. Farmland ~ symbolic of crops growing from Mother Earth is a wonderful visual backdrop to portray crops in our own life. The cycles of the crops, the cosmos, the world, our lives all intertwined. The play of rest as a necessary component in the cycle of life ~ leading to great fruitful activity.
Yes, when we wait upon the Lord, nothing, nothing, is ever wasted. All becomes new again.
Thus, this morning it all tied together. My new shoes, the image, global conditions ~ what all this may possibly relate to.
Perhaps more so the writing is for the writer to learn and grow ~ and perhaps to share also.
I share in the hope and encouragement that you may be blessed with new shoes and new eyes. I also had an eye issue that thankfully has healed which is also added to this mix of inspiration for this blog post.
I share in the hope and encouragement that this current global intermission will guide you to plant seeds in fertile soil to bear witness to a blessed fruit tree in your life.

The Intermission
An assessment on current conditions
Intermission: a pause or break, an interval between parts of a play, movie, or concert.
~ dictionary definition
⊕The intermission leads to the unveiling
⊕The intermission requires that this transitory period be one of great rest
⊕Restful insight is gained from deep rest⊕
Rest directed toward inner God Source = leads to outward activity for heightened evolutionary gain, personal health, wealth, and purposeful living.
Rest
The world must rest
each soul must rest
slow down
refresh, go within, take refuge
to begin again
The Night
So the hour of the night befallen
to bring us to our aware
nothing to do
but be aware within
⇓⇓⇓⇓⇓
The Intermission when complete transitions to the Light
The Light shall reign and the darkness dispelled
The Light shall be anchored with each new dawn of each new breath
⇓⇓⇓⇓⇓
“To Become Day”
Dawn, from an Old English verb dagian: “to become day”, is the time that marks the beginning of twilight before sunrise. It is recognized by the appearance of indirect sunlight being scattered in the atmosphere, when the centre of the Sun’s disc reaches 18° below the horizon.
~ Wikipedia
And thus the begining will begin…
⊂⊂⊂⊂⊂
ζTo see correctly and wear new shoes
↔The clarity and peace of seeing clearly ~ seeing as Spirit with Spirit directed action
The excitement of new shoes taking the walker to new places↔
We will see clearly and we will wear new shoes
We rest in the Lord, the Lord our God, within our inner sanctuary, where all becomes known to the knower of what there is to know.
Then after the respite, the intermission is no longer and the next segment appears. The light is reflected back into the eyes and the seeing is correct. New shoes are worn and are directed by God laced steps.
Bold action results leading to greens of greens. One becomes placed where they need to be, being supported in new ways. an expansion of joy, old chapters close as new auspicious chapters open. One finds themselves and sees oneself in newness and in truthfulness of ones own nature. Potential and possibility lay at the doorstep ~ the door has always been there, but now one sees it and enters it fully.
⊂⊂⊂⊂⊂
Encouragement
This blog post is about the intermission taking place, encouragement to get through it, and to keep the larger picture in heart and mind. Blessed Be to hear and wait upon the Lord.
A pause, “in between terms” as in when one is in school is a fitting analogy for current circumstances that intuitively direct the intuits to seek more within. To hear the voice within. To rest within God. To take harbor in the Light of the Divine that dwells within as the guiding post and precursor to footsteps ~ of action to be taken.
After rest activity naturally occurs. After a break there is always a time of rebuilding, restructuring, and moving forward.
The time table does not rest upon our knowing ~ yet we will know after we have taken the time to rest within.
Within ~ the shelter of all shelters. Then all else is added unto thee.

→Psalms for Rest←
⊕A few Psalms of rest, meditation, reflection, waiting upon God⊕
Through silence is the hearing
The voice of God opens our eyes
and directs our steps
⊕My Soul Waits for God Alone⊗
Psalm 62
1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.[a]
2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
3 Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm will overtake you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 “Because he[b] loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
For God alone my soul waits in silence;
from him comes my salvation.
2 He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken.
3 How long will all of you attack a man
to batter him,
like a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
4 They only plan to thrust him down from his high position.
They take pleasure in falsehood.
They bless with their mouths,
but inwardly they curse. Selah
5 For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence,
for my hope is from him.
6 He only is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
7 On God rests my salvation and my glory;
my mighty rock, my refuge is God.
8 Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your heart before him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah
9 Those of low estate are but a breath;
those of high estate are a delusion;
in the balances they go up;
they are together lighter than a breath.
10 Put no trust in extortion;
set no vain hopes on robbery;
if riches increase, set not your heart on them.
11 Once God has spoken;
twice have I heard this:
that power belongs to God,
12 and that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love.
For you will render to a man
according to his work.
~~~~~~~~~
Psalm 91
1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.[a]
2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
3 Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm will overtake you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 “Because he[b] loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him

ζCosmic Farmland
⇒The Intermission⇔
◊Where dark ends and light begins◊
Cosmic Farmland
holds the light of day
saturated in the nightly rays
the moon ~ the stars
a blue canopy
that is not far
Cosmic Farmland
sighs and awaits
what eternity
rises to create
though a darkness
seemingly blankets
it becomes removed
once eyes no longer debate
when the eyes and direction
no longer carry weight
when new shoes are worn
the past
tattered and torn
walking ~ new territory
becoming reborn
Cosmic Farmland
knows the secrets
hidden in the stars
yet expressed
in pure sight
a nightly mystical rite
Cosmic Farmland
a star filled night
rest assured
soon
All
will become light
⊂⊂⊂⊂⊂
Blessings of new eyes and new shoes!
Remember new shoes often require a breaking in stage ~ be gentle, loving, and compassionate with yourself as you walk upon new land with new shoes!
⊗May our intermission be filled with light, rest, knowing, and divine direction⊗
Thank you for viewing 🙂
Have a blessed day!
