More Energy

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 10, 2009 by JoyceJuly 10, 2009

Yesterday I wrote about comfort and going to Source to get an energy lift. Today I discovered that an email containing a prayer about energy had arrived in my In box yesterday. I find it ‘interesting’ that it was there when I was in need of it. And, although I may not have read it, I somehow got the message that I could go to Spirit for an energy boost. Here is A Prayer for Energy from Daily Guideposts: They will soar on wings as eagles; they will run and not grow weary. (Isaiah 40:31) Dear Lord, I need more energy and strength.Change my thoughts to be in harmony with your divine power. Keep me in close contact with you, the source of energy that never runs down. I accept this great new energy now and give you thanks. Amen.

Comfort 24/7

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 9, 2009 by JoyceJuly 9, 2009

It’s mid-afternoon and I’ve just finished eating a light lunch. Nevertheless, I feel sluggish, with little energy or enthusiasm to move back into my enjoyable work. I just took a glance again at one of today’s meditations. It was about God being my strength and my comfort when I’m facing small or larger difficulties, stating that I can be comforted as I find a quiet place and close my eyes. Yes, I can do that now too! Even for a lull in energy, I can take a break and seek God’s comfort. Spirit is always available for help in all situations – It is my strength. So, ta-ta. I’m off to some quiet time with Spirit; I’m taking a comfort break with God to get re-charged by Source.

Clients Sent by God

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 8, 2009 by JoyceJuly 8, 2009

It’s been a delightful day meeting with interesting clients, discovering who they are in order to accurately represent them when I build their website. I enjoy learning what we have in common as a way to connect and lay a foundation for a fun, cooperative, productive working relationship. But what I really get a kick out of is who God is sending our way to work with. Of the clients who have flowed into our life during the past 6 weeks or so, most are small business owners with a spiritual bent that they wear on their sleeve. They are healers and they are people looking to help others. It is an honor and a pleasure to meet these folks. And, of course, it is no coincidence, but simply part of God’s plan. Thank You, Spirit, for the wonderful people you place on my path. Thank You for the lessons they teach me and the love they share.

KP Learning

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 7, 2009 by JoyceJuly 7, 2009

Learning can occur anywhere, anytime. This morning, as I was putting away the coffee cups from yesterday afternoon’s coffee vacation, I knocked one into the shelf. No damage to the cup or my hand – but an “Ah-ha!”. I immediately got that I was not exercising ‘consciousness’. Really – that’s the word that came into my head. If I’d been paying better attention, I’d have lifted my arm sufficiently to clear the shelf. It’s food for thought. Putting the dishes away is a relatively minor task in the grand scheme of things. But, it made me aware of how many things, large and small, I often am not as fully conscious about as I could be. When I’m on KP (kitchen patrol) duty preparing potatoes, am I focused enough so that I slice them into consistent cubes while not cutting myself? When I pay the water bill, am I mindful of all the blessings that come from having water flow directly into our house and as much as we want? What about gratitude for the channel God used to get the money into our checking account to be able to pay the bill? How present am I when I’m in … Continue reading →

Highest Good

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 6, 2009 by JoyceJuly 6, 2009

Dear Spirit –I know that, in the grand scheme of things, all happens for the highest good for me. But when I become uncomfortable with people, places, and things – when my ego starts acting up – please remind me that all is happening for my highest good, and all is well. And, please empower me to walk through such times feeling Your peace, Your love, and Your grace. “Wherever I am, God is, and all is well.” – Daily Word, July 6, 2009

Power

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 5, 2009 by JoyceJuly 5, 2009

God has given us free will. We can choose to travel our road with or without our Creator.When I was an atheist, I was choosing to live my life without my Creator. However, that’s certainly not the way I would have described my position then. I couldn’t seem to find evidence of God’s existence in a way that made sense to me and faith was a 5-letter word to me at that time in my journey. We can make use of Divine power or not. Hence, I lived without God actively in my life. But we ought to understand that all the power we have comes from God.Yes, now I see, now I know… Without God I am nothing – I would not, could not, exist. We are the wire, God is the current. Our only power is to let the current pass through us. – Carlo Carretto [Excerpts are from In God’s Care, July 5]

The Freedom of Forgiveness

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 4, 2009 by JoyceJuly 4, 2009

Today being Independence Day in the USA brings to mind freedom and the rights we have been given through the Bill of Rights, the name by which the first ten amendments to the U. S. Constitution are known. The Bill of Rights grants us freedom of religion, speech and the press, assembly, the right to bear arms, protection from unreasonable search and seizure, etc. But there is a freedom that is at least as important as those stated in the Bill of Rights, and I grant it to myself when I practice forgiveness. When I hold resentment against anyone, I am binding myself to that person by a cosmic link, a real though mental chain. Until I cut that tie, I am a prisoner in bondage, and living a peaceful, loving, and joyous life is out of my reach. Emmet Fox, in The Sermon on the Mount: The Key to Success in Life, states “The technique of forgiveness is simple enough, and not very difficult to manage when you understand how. The only thing that is essential is willingness to forgive” (page 173). These days, thanks to a lot of 12 Step and other spiritual work, I find myself only … Continue reading →

Spiritual Freedom

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 3, 2009 by JoyceJuly 3, 2009

As we move into the holiday commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from Great Britain, I can’t say that I consistently feel good about the state of freedom these days in the United States. There has been much erosion over the years in individuals’ rights (think Patriot Act for just one) which impact our lives in the physical realm in numerous ways. However, I was reminded in today’s Daily Word that spiritual freedom has no limits. Spiritual freedom comes from within. No one can dictate to me what I choose to fill my heart and my mind with. I’m the one who chooses how I experience God, how I pray, and how I practice the presence of God in my daily life. There are no limits except what I impose upon myself. Regardless of outer circumstances, I will always have my spiritual freedom. I embrace it and I am grateful.

A Spiritual Conspiracy

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 2, 2009 by JoyceJuly 2, 2009

I came across the following poem and was able to track down its author. Written by Brian Piergrossi, it is included in his book The Big Glow. I resonated with it immediately… The world and its peoples are healing and moving to a higher vibration – yippee! Hope abounds. Love Is The New Religion On the surface of the world right now there is war and violence and things seem darkBut calmly and quietly, at the same time, something else is happening undergroundAn inner revolution is taking place and certain individuals are being called to a higher lightIt is a silent revolutionFrom the inside outFrom the ground up It is time for me to reveal myselfI am an embedded agent of an secret, undercoverClandestineGlobal operationA spiritual conspiracyWe have sleeper cells in every nation on the planet You won’t see us on the T.V.You won’t read about us in the newspaperYou won’t hear about us on the radio We don’t seek any gloryWe don’t wear any uniformWe come in all shapes and sizesColors and styles Most of us work anonymouslyWe are quietly working behind the scenes in every country and culture of the worldCities big and small, mountains and valleys, in … Continue reading →

Beauty

joyceskaye.com Posted on July 1, 2009 by JoyceJuly 1, 2009

I flipped my wall calendar this morning to welcome the new month of July… I cannot believe how quickly the time is flying these days! The photo for the month is of a gorgeous purplish evening sky, with the moon rising behind a tree amid mountains. The quote by Confucius states: “Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.” How true this is. And, is it not true of moi? And, not just in terms of the physical. How often do I not see the beauty in people, in their spirit? I don’t see past their ideas, their quirks, their complaints, their fears. Or I get stuck in my ego with its ideas, fears, and judgments. Love is all there is, which means that each of us is love, and where there is love there surely is beauty. May I take the time to see past the outer, and see the inner beautiful spirit of all whom I encounter this day.
