'Nothing happens out of order, or by chance.'



‘Nothing happens out of order or by chance, and the great law brings those very conditions in your life which you need for growth. So accept with love all that happens. Look for the lesson that has to be learnt from the experience. Look up to God daily, hourly, and be filled with the divine light and love. It pours like a golden ray into the heart and head centre, cleansing, healing, uplifting, steadying, giving you control.’

Last week, as many of you know, there was a tragic happening. In early morning fog a helicopter crashed into a crane on a building site in central London. I happened to be watching Breakfast News just after the accident occurred. It particularly caught my attention because it was adjacent to the large office block where my son, Michael, works (for a big UK Charity, Macmillan Cancer Care). As the story unfolded, and it became clear that the helicopter went down into the street nearby, obviously I was especially concerned for him and his colleagues. It was a relief when he texted me that he and they were safe, but in those moments of waiting for his reply, I was supported by my great faith in the ‘power of the Star’ and absolute belief that ‘nothing happens by chance’. A little later in the day the crane driver, Vicky Biagoni, who would normally have been in the crane at that time, was interviewed. Extraordinarily, his alarm clock had not gone off that morning, so he overslept and was late to work!
I am sure many of us have escaped ‘near misses’ in our lives—ourselves or loved ones, or people we know. We also often hear stories of freak accidents which cause death or change the course of people’s lives. Maybe fear, of one sort or another, is an ongoing challenge for most of us, but a wonderful thing about White Eagle’s teaching is that it offers us absolute security in God’s care, and the knowledge that nothing really happens by chance.
Another of my favourite sayings is: ‘He who knows not of God’s love fears for his life, but not a son/daughter of light.’ So it made me even more determined to live life, as White Eagle advises, in the consciousness of the light and love of God enfolding and protecting us, and with confidence, not fear, no matter what conditions or events I find myself facing. With White Eagle’s help we know we can ‘look up to God daily, hourly, and be filled with the divine light and love’.
My love and prayers are also with the families of those who passed and I know that our faith in God's care and that life is eternal will mean that we are better channels for that Light to reach and help them at this difficult time.

With my love,
Jenny

A Heavenly Rainbow for the New Year!



Warm New Year greetings and good wishes to all and I do pray that 2013—the start of a whole new era according to the Mayan calendar!—brings new inspiration and blessing into your life.
My new year began in a beautiful way. By chance I was able to witness an extraordinary sunrise on the morning of 2nd January. I watched the sun rise up out of the sea into a bank of cloud which was spectacularly illumined by the light. Then I turned, and behind me was a glorious full semi-circle rainbow. Its beauty touched my heart and lifted my spirit to heaven. It seemed to me a symbol of the dawning of our new Golden Age of Brotherhood—the gold at the end of the rainbow. It seems to me that when we have the experience of witnessing a particularly beautiful manifestation of natural beauty, this truly can ‘open our heart to God’, and help uplift us through darker times. 
As White Eagle says in the sayings in his little book The Source of All our Strength, entitled ‘The Rainbow’: ‘A sorrow can be like a rainy day with sunlight shining through. And sun through rain creates a rainbow. So it is with human life. Look to the sunlight of God, knowing that your Father-Mother will send you nothing but good, that your loved ones are in God’s care, and that God’s love for them is greater than your own.

Just a couple of days after my ‘rainbow experience’ I had the opportunity to see a remarkable movie, ‘The Life of Pi’, the adaptation of the 2001 highly acclaimed novel by Yarin Martel which has been translated into 42 languages. The film has been described as: epic, transcendent, ground-breaking, and a visionary journey of self-discovery. In my opinion it really does live up to all these descriptive words and is so well worth seeing. It opened my heart even more to a realisation of God’s extraordinary care for us all and the happiness which can come when in spite of all the tests we are able to surrender everything back to God. The story of the friendship between man and tiger whilst adrift on the ocean for many days, and the utter surrender to God that the young man Pi experienced, is deeply moving and, I think, a lesson for us all. So this is a New Year resolution I’m working on and would like to share with you—to be able to keep our hearts open to God at all times, and surrender all into His/Her loving care.
