We all get glimpses of pure truth and love, but it seems a struggle to stay tuned in. How can we stay in the Presence?

Let us first envision what is possible. Imagine if everyone who came into your presence walked away with a message of Love pouring forth from your consciousness. Imagine the effect on them – and you! You would be uniting with others at the highest place of love as Love’s own Presence. This is where we belong. This is home base.

Let us envision even more accurately what it feels like to be in the Presence of Love. We feel like the angels are sweeping us upward. We see the wonder, beauty, and preciousness of each of us deserving to be loved and honored. We experience healing and purification. We feel the burst of uplifting joy and the powerful light of sudden insight. We are lifted into the spontaneous song of holiness and our highest identity.

As we draw nearer to the Presence, its illumination has a soft, yet powerful ability to correct whatever is out of divine alignment. We, ourselves, have had countless life challenges where, at times, it felt as though the Presence of divine Love was absent, not enough, or remote from us. During those times, as we embraced the Presence, loved it, and practiced it as our very selves, our problems evaporated in a sea of Love’s lessons and blessings.

To come into the Presence there needs to be a willingness to align yourself with the fact that all good is possible every moment. There have been spiritual leaders throughout the ages whose mere Presence changed lives with such spiritual power that adversities were immediately transformed to victories. Practicing the Presence is available to each of us every moment.

In one of Shannon’s recent healing experiences, a stock broker called her when the stock market plummeted. The broker was in a panic, scrambling with the decision of whether or not to stay in the business. As this broker and Shannon stayed in the Presence of Love, spoke together as the Presence, and cherished what was unfolding, there was immediate peace and calm. A few days later the stock broker called to say how surprised and delighted she was to have two new big clients. This was the last thing she was expecting in such a declining market. Her alignment with the Presence brought forth natural abundance.

In another instance a woman called Shannon to gain freedom from agonizing pain. Months earlier she had been in an automobile accident and, more recently, a chiropractor told her that her condition was deteriorating. The woman and Shannon listened to divine messages together – sharing the beauty, light, and healing intelligence pouring forth from the Presence of Love as themselves. A couple days later the lady called to report that she had immediately felt so much better after they spoke that she went to a gym two days in a row to work out! She had been free of pain since their call.

The Presence has a tremendous power to override what appears to be any other presence. This is because there really is only one Presence, not two or more. Lack, loss, limitation, illness, fear, and pain disappear in this healing, holy Presence. Everything succumbs to the Presence of our Allness and Oneness of Love, since this truly is all that exists. The rest is illusion. The illusion disappears in the face of the true Presence.

Though it stands as a monumental wonder of what is actual and possible at any given moment, the Presence of Love need not be mysterious or unknowable. In fact, address your top problems right now with the consciousness of the Presence of Love. Experience stillness and quietness. Feel Love’s presence of comfort, calm, and peace. Stay in this mode as you listen to divine messages which offer you a higher realization. Now let this divine Love Presence, and not the problem, be identified as you. Let your entire self be united with and as the divine Presence of Love.

Do this often – many times a day – and it will develop your spirituality and cause you to experience more and more of your true divine identity as the Presence of Love. And let it be simple. For example, think of two words that best describe the Presence of Love in your heart right now. You can change the words as often as inspired. Perhaps compassion and light. Or joy and love. Or caring and empathy. Then let these two words be your active, living meditation as you walk into your day. Let these words keep you in the Presence – meeting every event or challenge with the power of the Presence. Others will feel uplifted and healed in your Presence – and you will come home to your highest self. Welcome to the heart of Love!
