A Sacred Encounter

You think it’s just a bee? Nah… that’s how Spirit shows up when you’re really listening.

Today, Spirit pulled up on me—

no big entrance, no thunder, no flash.

Just golden wings, a gentle buzz,

and a presence that whispered, “Pay attention.”

 

She hovered over my head, circled behind me,

then landed soft as breath on my left hand.

And I knew.

This wasn’t just a bee.

This was Spirit in flight—

bringing sweetness, purpose, and divine presence.

 

I looked at her and said,

“Well hello… how are you? I know you’re talking to me.”

And in that holy moment,

we weren’t just coexisting — we were communing.

 

See, some people would’ve just seen a bee.

But I see the world through a different lens—

where Spirit speaks in the still, small things.

Moments like this remind me:

the Divine doesn’t only speak through scripture and sermons.

Sometimes She hums in your ear,

lands in your palm,

and reminds you: You’re still chosen.

 

I am open.

I am listening.

I am ready to receive.

 

Like the bee, I carry sacred purpose.

Like the bee, I bring healing.

Like the bee, I rise — in sweetness and strength.

 

And so it is.
