The Simple Truth About Togetherness
Today I watched as twenty-five people came together to pray
for a woman who had lost hope in traditional cancer treatment. She was frail,
weighing about 70 pounds. She held on to a bedpan in case she had to cough, as
it brought up blood. Her daughter was there. Her mother was there. Even her
93-year-old grandmother was there to pray for a miracle with some members of
the church.
We all gathered around our friend bringing our special gifts
to the service. They asked me to come and sing. Some people spoke. Others
brought healing with flowers, crystals, Reiki, readings, and poems. Then one
elderly woman got up and played the harmonica. I will post a picture of the
moment later today when I get back to Nashville, as I’m in Knoxville now. The
moment was precious and unique in so many ways. She played “Rudolph the Red
Nose Reindeer.” Her music made me smile and weep at the same time.
We all gathered at the end of the healing service to share
in one last healing affirmation.
We all repeated this over her three times.
Togetherness is power. I guess that’s why the scriptures say
that wherever two or more are gathered, God will be present. I felt power in
that moment, and I feel power every time I combine my spirit with another
like-minded spirit.
I came to this service heavy hearted. On the way to
Knoxville, my now ex-partner had called me and told me that he had found an
apartment and was moving out. He said that he still wanted a relationship, but
wanted to live in separate places, for reasons I won’t discuss here.
I mention this, not for comfort or for pity, but because
what I experienced today was the exact opposite of what was happening in my
life. God was filling the gap with people of like mind. Afterward, the minister
and my dearest friend prayed with me about my life, which also gave me very
strong peace. God shared with me my own special message here in Knoxville about
what it means to be together.
Listen, not every relationship is meant to make it to the
forever stage. Some relationships you have to try on to discover that it’s just
not the right fit for you. I’ve made a wonderful, lifelong friend, I’m sure.
But our ideals are not the same when it comes to togetherness.
Togetherness is about the binding of two spirits and minds.
It’s about the collaboration of two hearts to find solace in the merit of one
stronger bond. Love in relationship is about secure attachment and the ability
to depend upon each other without the risk of feeling like a child or a
codependent. Secure attachment is spending quiet nights at home with no drama,
cuddled up watching your favorite television shows—sometimes alone, sometimes
together.
Finally, togetherness takes a spiritual binding of two minds
of equal yoking. If two people are of like mind spiritually, there is a rock-solid
undercurrent of stability that will last through the hardest of times.
