Featured Song:
"Out of the Darkness"
For many years, I felt trapped in the darkness of fear, guilt, addiction, and depression. I was afraid to face my fears, much less walk through them, and I kept my heart closed so it wouldn't get broken again. The more I resisted the darkness, the darker life became.
I now understand that there is no form of darkness that can exist in the light, and there is no greater light than the Divine energy that flows through each of us. Having the courage and faith to walk through my fears with an open heart, as difficult as it has been, has allowed me to create a life that I love filled with joy and peace. It has also given me the opportunity to help others to find their own way to becoming who they Truly are. Being human, I sometimes forget these Truths. When I feel myself slipping back into darkness, I pick up my guitar and play this song to remember that which part of me has always known. As the chorus of this song reminds me:
"The answers you're seeking
Were here from the start
Walk through the fear
And open your heart"
My hope is that this song will inspire others to remember who they Truly are. All the peace, joy and love we have ever wanted is already within us to find! Enjoy the journey!!!
Out of the Darkness
(Lyrics)
I can’t remember yesterday
Tomorrow may not come
I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do today
I've seen the ups - lived the downs
I get lost and stumble round
Mostly I just hide or run away
This crazy mixed up livin
Is getting way too hard
I think I’m just too old
To try to change
If I keep this stinkin’ thinkin
I’ll just keep on drinkin
Perhaps its time my life was rearranged
I closed my eyes, called out to God
Hoping he was there
I didn’t get an answer
Perhaps he didn’t care
I finally fell asleep that night
And woke up in a dream
I heard a voice so strong and clear
Yet gentle and serene
I listened as it spoke to me
The tears flowed from my eyes
The wisdom of the Voice within
Washed away the lies
As the Truth was spoken
I sat up in my bed
Filled with peace, joy and love
This is what they said:
Out of the darkness
Into the light
Beyond the illusion
Of what's wrong or right
The answers you're seeking
Were here from the start
Walk through the fear
And open your heart
Open your heart
Many years have come and gone
Since Spirit spoke to me
Guiding me upon a path
The path that set me free.
When fear comes back to visit
I close my eyes and pray
The words come back from deep within
And this is what they say:
Out of the darkness
Into the light
Beyond the illusion
Of what's wrong or right
The answers you're seeking
Were here from the start
Walk through the fear
And open your heart
Open your heart
