There isn’t anything that I cannot be or do or have, and I have a huge Nonphysical staff that’s ready to assist me, and I’m ready. – Abraham (Excerpted from the 01.12.97 #351 Boca Raton, FL workshop) Yes, I am ready! Today I move forward in my spiritual growth through my intention, action, and help of the unseen beings who are only too eager to assist me to higher and higher levels of awakening and peace. I am so grateful. Thank You, all. Thank You, Spirit. Namaste.
There are all kinds of love, but the ultimate love is that of God. I am grateful for Spirit’s unconditional love, unlimited, unrestricted, always present. When I and the humans in my life fall asleep and falter in our loving capacity, I know that I can rely on the Source of all to heal me and wake me up once again. Attending a gratitude meeting yesterday, I was touched by other’s shares. Hearing others’ expressions of gratitude is always a great mechanism for opening up my heart. It is a way Spirit heals me and wakes me up once again to the love that I truly am. Yesterday was no exception. Today Rog and I created a love altar based on Vastu Shastra, the sacred Vedic science of architectural alignment that combines all the five elements of nature (earth, water, air, fire, space) to balance and remove obstructions to life-supporting energy in order to receive the support of nature to assist in unfolding one’s full potential. Through this exercise, I felt Spirit at work, opening my heart, waking me up again to that which is my true essence, love.
Good morning, God, Holy Spirit, angels, spirit guides, elements, elementals, and all those interested in my upliftment – My prayer today is “Help me!” God: Help you with what? Me: Help me with everything in my life! Help me with my relationships, my finances, my physical health, my mental being. Above all, help me clear and strengthen my connection with You. And, let’s not forget: please help me to manage my time, to be peaceful regardless of appearances, to have mercy, and to forgive.
In God’s economy, nothing is wasted. – Bill W. This is one of my favorite sayings. Remembering it has lifted me from despair for it filled me with hope knowing that there is a purpose to everything. And, in a different vein, this saying has come to mind, for instance, when I’d gone astray in a new locale or on a project. Later on the knowledge picked up from that ‘accidental’ experience helped handily in a current situation – and brought a smile to my face as I thought of God’s hand in the situation, making sure that nothing was wasted. Nothing is wasted in God’s economy for everything has meaning and purpose. For me, this is another way of stating that everything is a blessing. And so it truly is in God’s world.
Dear God-Thank You for this day… As I go out into it, may I feel Your peace, may I feel Your love pouring though me, and may it flow from me onward to others. May I know that You are always just a breath away – indeed, You are that breath within me. I am never alone to meet any challenge the day poses, to rejoice in the blessings You give me. You are my world. May we together keep it bathed in the sunlight of the Spirit. Thank You, thank You, thank You for this day You have given me so that I may heal and make a difference.
“Your world is between your own two ears. Everything that you create, you create in your head. You have a choice whether you want it to be good or bad. But remember, the universe is always trying to bring you good.”– From An Angel Named Terry, a personal story by Brian Espy “The Universe is always trying to bring good.” What a great reminder! When I muck things up, I must remember that the natural order is for good, for balance, harmony, and peace. And, any time I forget and stray, I can turn over all my concerns to God. My world may be in my head, but thank heavens Spirit is there with me!
Neglect not the gift that is in thee… – I Timothy 4:14 “What is God asking you to give today? It may be large or small, but one thing is certain: It’s something only you can give.” – By Roberta Messner (From today’s Daily Guideposts) Well, I easily and naturally give hugs. And, I’m quick to help someone with computer-related issues. I consider myself a good listener and empathetic. But, what is it that is uniquely me, that no one else can give? My singing voice, my wit, my wisdom? Perhaps it’s sharing my experience, strength, and hope. I’ve led an interesting and unique life considering my roots and the fact that I’m a woman. I’ve developed a philosophy of life that has served me and my fellows well. So maybe it’s simply telling my story of how I came to believe in a Power greater than myself that could relieve me of the insanity of my life, not just in the area of my eating disorder, but in other unhealthy relationships as well. I know that I love sharing about what my life used to be like, what happened, and what it’s been like since I developed a relationship …Continue reading →
Although I was not acquainted with Brugh Joy while he graced this earth, since his passing in December 2009, I’ve been introduced to him and his work in heart centered transformational healing and spiritual enlightenment. A practice he taught to embrace the changes in one’s life are known as the Three Injunctions:– Make no comparisons– Make no judgments– Delete the need to understand People often complain about change, but that is the only thing certain about life. And, change makes us know that we are alive, moving forward, and not stagnated. While it seems to be the case that humans need to reach bottom in order to wake up, and that it is often accompanied by suffering, practicing these injunctions help to positively move through changes that are most challenging. And, speaking from experience, like so many others, I know the more extreme the situation, the greater my spiritual growth has been. For instance, reaching bottom with my eating disorder and finally seeking a solution was a life altering experience. My disorder was not only arrested, but my life was enhanced “beyond my wildest dreams.” It was the beginning of my waking up, and I “came to believe” in a …Continue reading →
Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape. – Anonymous In this fast changing world, with way too much stimuli for my brain, being flexible is a valuable trait. Like a tree swaying in the wind in order not to snap, it behooves me to stay light and breezy in this heavily-burden world of physicality. Still, there are areas in which being flexible is not an asset. I must be steadfast and unwavering in my faith and trust in God, my Source.
In the Silence, sitting upright with my feet flat on the floor in my office, I imagine roots flowing from my soles extending deep into Mother Earth… Deep, deep, deep. Ahhh… Connected. I get to thinking how I suppose it is evident that as far back as I can remember I’d hoped that someone, somebody would take care of me. And, you know what? Not one man ever did! I suppose this expectation, perhaps yearning, stems from my very early childhood days. With three sibs (two sets of twins all together), a dad busy working trying to feed six mouths, a mom whose own mom died when she was 18 months old due to complications arising from birthing her, etc., it was difficult to feel cared for. Sitting in the Silence, feeling the roots flowing from my soles extending deep into Mother Earth, I realize that I AM cared for. God takes care of me with every breath I breathe, every millisecond of this life, all lives past and any more to come, whatever the dimension, whatever the world. I am a child of God, of no one else. And, I am in God’s care always.
