The Jouney!

I’ve been thinking about the idea that there are no mistakes! There is no such thing as coincidence. Things that happen in our life are not random, no matter how much they may seem so. There is purpose to everything, which is a hard pill for us to swallow, because it’s just easier for us to believe that things happen for no reason at all, which we accept, because most of us are too lazy to invest the time to think things through from the perspective of our spirit.

We are travelling along a path, on a spiritual journey, where we get to live moment by moment, seeking to grow to the highest version of ourself. When we learn to loosen up, just live and enjoy ourselves, we begin to live in the ebb and flow of the spirit, which allows us to experience the perfection we were created for.

Robert Frost said: ”Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.”

We have a choice and our every choice has a consequence. Often we live our lives without giving any thought to our choices and the consequences tied to them. Our ego encourages us to ignore the obvious if it doesn’t fit our preconceived notions and ideas. But our choices do have consequences and sometimes the consequences are more than we are willing to live with, but the truth is: living with the hard, difficult and challenging does a work in us and through us that nothing else can accomplish.

”Consider it a great joy, my brothers, whenever you experience various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. But endurance must do its complete work, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.” -James 1:2-4

What we discover on the path of life is that Heaven comes to earth through the challenges, frustrations and disappointments of life. There are no accidents, everything has a purpose and every step we take along the journey is our master teacher, offering us wisdom to grow so that we may be pure, complete and lacking nothing…

Wake Up!

Look around you! There is so much to see in this great big human experience. Look around with your physical eyes and you will be amazed at all you can see, just by looking. Learn to look around with your spiritual eyes and you will be empowered to live life on a totally different level.

It is very true that there is more to this ole world than meets the eye. And we can see this, participate in it and grow in amazing ways through it, if we will allow ourselves the opportunity to see through and beyond the veil of flesh.

For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. -Galatians 6:8

To move from physical vision to spiritual vision is to be AWAKENED. To be awakened is to enable ordinary you and me to be and do the extraordinary. Once we make the decision to move beyond the delusions of the physical world, we tap into the spiritual and begin to live the real life we were created for.

Wake up to the reality that you were created for so much more than what you have been settling for. Wake up to the fact that you are a spiritual being getting to have a huan experience, not a human being looking for a spiritual experience. Wake up to the power in you, around you and through you. And start using this power of love for blessing. You will be amazed and amazing at the same time and that my friends is definitely something worth waking up for…

Lighten Your Load!

Growing up in church helps you to get really good at using big and fancy spiritual words in order to try and express yourself as you seek to impress others. Most of the words we learn are pretty cool sounding and imply some sort of superiority, simply because we know them and can say them. Truth be told, many of the words we learned and use are words that we have no idea or concept of what they really mean, even though we have convinced ourselves that we do.

I heard someone the other day talking about experiencing “enlightenment” and knowing this person the way I do, it got me to wondering do they possibly have any clue as to what the word really means?

Enlightenment involves a moment where we step away from the flesh and into spirit. Enlightenment encourages us to take on and take out the temptations of the ego, so we may be truly free to experience unity with our Creator. Enlightenment is spiritual awarness and has as it’s byproducts: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,gentleness and self-control…

For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God. -1 Corinthians 2:11

When we are “enlightened”, we are no longer worried about or distracted by blame and who gets it or who gives it. We are more concerned with the blessings we are able to share with others, which contribute to enlightenment overall. We are not anxious about the dark, because we have become light, which illuminates the darkness and chases the shadows away. We do not know fear, because perfect loves drives out fear.

Enlightenment is a connection of heart, mind and spirit that opens the Heavens to release miracles to flow into and through our lives. Enlightenment is about an ongoing transformation that changes every part of my life – body, mind and spirit.

So let’s do more than just know about the word, let’s really get to know it, feel it, embrace it, live it and then we can share it. And isn’t that what it’s all really about anyway???
