Riding Up the Elevator of Life

Riding Up the Elevator of Life

By Martha MacFarland

Spirituality is like

Riding up the elevator of life

In a tower that illuminates the higher you go

At the lower levels

We cannot fully see the brilliance of the light

We cannot fully see the limitations of the ground floor

Until we are looking below at where we came

For each lower level

Reveals an agreement to what was

At the cost of what we didn’t think was possible

The full realization of our soul in human form

That was waiting for us as we ascended

And as we lift to a new floor of awareness

We learn to rely on the Divine Self

The purview of love, above fear

Able to see the light that illuminates the shafts below 

To the lower levels we have journeyed

And in this higher perspective

We see the light at all levels

And see the Divine witnessing the Divine in what it sees

That nothing is outside of God at each level

All aspects created in fear 

Are now realized in a higher way as we traverse up

Recognized and aligned

And in this journey, we raise to a higher octave

That reverberates the light of truth as we ascend
