It is a relief for me to learn that meditation is not a practice - it is an intention. As a practice, I get frustrated because my mind seems difficult to quiet. But meditation as an intention is a declaration to return to God, and that is really what I strive to make my life about.
Meditation is the intention to get back to Source, the one thing that never changes and never left us. It is formless and permanent; all that is form is temporary. All true spiritual teachings call us to return our attention to Source. “Return unto to Me, and I will return unto thee.”
My egoic mind can go about chattering away as I sit in the silence, and Spirit doesn’t care one iota. Eventually, the chatter dissipates and I am the formless with The Creator. I am in an abiding state of awakening, my primary purpose for being on the planet.

Seeing
“What we see depends mainly on what we look for.” - John Lubbock
I have a client with whom I work with 20 hours per week, so I’m familiar with the look of her office. One day she asked for my interior decorating advice regarding an oval area rug she planned to buy for a main walk-through section of the office. Armed with samples, we discussed which color scheme would best work with the current carpet, and I also brought up my concern about how the thickness of the rug might be a tripping hazard. Then she proceeded to order her choice online, and that’s the last I thought of it.
The following week I was in my client’s office and it wasn’t until I’d walked through the main area three times that I realized the area rug had been delivered and placed on the carpet! I simply hadn’t seen it and I certainly hadn’t tripped over it.
It’s pretty phenomenal to me that something can be right in my face and I don’t see it. Have you ever looked all over the house for your keys (substitute anything else), only to find them on the kitchen counter next to the coffee mug you’d just been drinking out of?
It sure makes me wonder what else I’m not seeing, minor things and the not-so-minor. And then there’s the idea that this world is an illusion and I’m making it up anyway... so why can’t I ‘make up’ the keys, the cash, the love, the faith, etc.?
If I can’t see what is theoretically on the physical plane and I believe should be easy to see, then how can I ‘see’ what is in the other realms? And, if I’m making it all up anyway, why aren’t I making up and communicating with the unseen spiritual beings whom I’ve been yearning to communicate with?
Intention. Yes, again, I go about setting intentions and being awake. With faithful expectancy and joy, I see what I am looking for, I live the life and experience the abundance that is mine by Divine Right. I stay alert to my good and to God’s Grace.

Intention
I still find myself these days not hearing guidance as directly, as often, or as clearly as I would like. It was suggested to me that setting an intention could very well prove useful in this situation. And, of course, setting and holding intentions is beneficial and powerful in all areas of one’s life.
So I’m setting intentions for this day:
I intend that God, my angels, my guides, and all other beings interested in my upliftment speak to me clearly in ways I understand -
I intend to follow the clear guidance given me -
I intend to walk through this day in peace, love, and joy -
I intend to be aware of all that I am grateful for -
I intend to remain open to receiving God’s grace -
I intend to be a patient, good listener and to shine my light in service to others -
I intend that this day is a productive one, enjoying and effectively doing the work Spirit sets before me -
I intend that when my head hits the pillow tonight I will have felt the power of setting intentions and fall asleep with a smile on my face enveloped in the knowing presence of Spirit, my angels, and my guides.

So Much Help
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.

On the Path
“Lord, light my way along Your path so that all I do leads me toward the destination You have in mind.” - Daily Guideposts Prayer, January 27, 2010
Lighting the way along my path, Spirit has provided me with wonderful teachers. They come in many forms, with some that unfold as a challenge and many others as love. All are blessings in my life to grow me spiritually, to wake me up.
Yesterday I started working with a new one in a very conscious, intentional way. I’m helping BK design and build her website, and she is helping me heal, open my heart, and get clear about what I came here to do. It is a wonderful, rich exchange of energy. And while I look forward to discovering what God’s destination is for me, I am so enjoying and grateful for this light along the journey in the form of BK.
Thank You, Spirit, for the wonderful blessings in my life of people, places, and things. Thank You for the light you shine along my way in my journey of growing closer to You - and me.

Breakthrough
Yesterday Rog and I had a meeting to discuss processes and scheduling in our website design and development business. It was a productive conversation that moved us forward.
Then he used the word production in querying how many websites I thought I could do each week. That triggered something in me that set off a barrage of anger and frustration, not the first time on this subject that involves money and time. I was acutely aware of my mind becoming limited and shutting down, and my heart space shrinking. Ego and fear had taken over once again.
But as Rog talked to tell me his perspective about abundance and intention, I got clarity as to what had set me off. Then I was able to express it, honestly and in a diplomatic way. This was a huge step for me: getting down to the cause, giving voice to my feelings, and standing up for myself.
I am aware that this episode was not really about Rog and me. It was about long-held patterns of thinking that do not serve me well and not feeling empowered. I am so grateful for the lesson and the teacher – what blessings! And, I am certain that this breakthrough was another result of my reactivation (see blog of 01/07/10).
I feel the garbage is being removed from my mind and heart and the Truth is being uncovered; it can only be with God’s help, grace, and love that this can be achieved. With each breakthrough, I feel more empowered, more in my heart, and better able to help others.

It's Happenin'
With this new year I was adamant to change things in my life, above all to increase those things that nourish my soul, that are loving for me. I’m glad to say that I’ve started on the right foot – after all, the sooner I incorporate changes, the easier to do so.
So on the first day of the new year, I spent a good deal of time on the phone with loving, supportive friends across the globe, worked beautifully in sync on a business project with Rog, and spent the afternoon and evening with my twin flame (Rog) and some other members of my soul family. This is not the usual routine for me, and the key word for the day I’d say was “connection.” A great way/day to start off the new year and decade.
On the 2nd day of the new year (no, this blog will not mimic “The 12 Days of Christmas”!), enlivened by a deep inner shift, I got out of bed when the alarm sounded, and went about my spiritual practice, which set the tone for the day. I had strayed way off the beam in spending time on my relationship with Spirit and it felt good to get back on track. I attended the monthly Women In Love with the Divine (W.I.L.D.) meeting and was surrounded by my soul sisters. My soul family sisters showed up too, a delightful surprise for me. We went out for coffee and engaged in meaningful and supportive conversation. I took an afternoon nap for two hours (!), started reading a book on soul empowerment, and then went to bed at 8:30 PM, early for me. Talk about a different kind of day! It brought me peace.
And so now here I am on the 3rd day of this new year and decade: Up early, doing my spiritual practice, the first order of the day. I’m being mindful of setting my intentions, checking in with God, asking my angels and spirit guides for assistance, and staying upbeat.
This is my life to co-create with God and this is the year to step into doing so more than ever. I am grateful that the divine spark within has been rekindled and is being fanned. It is propelling me to take care of my self, my soul, and in doing so, filling me with joy, meaning, intention, and peace.
I wanted to use the new year to start making positive changes in my life and I’m glad to report that I have already started the process, that it wasn’t just an empty promise to myself. With God’s help, it is truly taking place – it’s happen’! I am so very grateful.
Thank You, Spirit, for breathing in me new life.

Beginning Anew
It’s the beginning of the new year and of course talk about releasing, resolutions, and new beginnings is in the air. I know that I can begin anew any day, any time. Still, there is something about starting a year – and in this case a decade (!) – with intentions anew, dreams anew, etc.
Today’s Daily Word was right on for me. It spoke of releasing that which no longer serves me. Hmm – I can certainly think of baggage that I carried with me not just from this last year to the new one, but from year to year to year. I’m ready to release, the old thought patterns, emotions, behaviors, people, physical ‘stuff’, and situations that are not for my highest good.
The Daily Word also spoke of resolving to focus my attention on “being” rather than on “doing.” I am so there. I particularly do, do, do in the attempt to have the result of money flowing in. This excessive doing takes time and energy away from being focused on God and expanding my spirit, while simultaneously moves me towards ego, fear, and thoughts of lack. God is my source, and the more time I spend on being, the closer I feel to Source and things flow with ease and grace.
There is one big fact which I think you ought to have in mind as you approach the new year, and it is that life will give back to you just exactly what you give to life. - Dr. Norman Vincent Peale
Dear Spirit –
With Your help, may I release all that needs releasing, and move from a human doing to a human being. I set my intention on participating more richly in Life through nourishing my soul and my relationship with You. And as I give unto Life, so shall Life return to me an abundance of blessings.

Gratitude
It’s far later than I wanted to be up this New Year’s Eve, tired as I am from a full day. Nonetheless, as I contemplate the ending of the year 2009 and the first decade of the millennium, what comes to mind is the word gratitude. So, instead of reflecting on the old and projecting the new (I’ll leave that for tomorrow), I’m writing out a gratitude list.
As I sit here, in this moment at the end of an adventurous year, I am grateful for:
- God’s presence in my life
- Rog, my Life Partner, twin flame, husband
- Our lovely, character-filled home in our new home town of Sedona
- Good health
- Dear friends of old
- Budding relationships with spiritually like-minded folks
- Building community
- Wonderfully working partnership with first client in Sedona (totally a ‘God thing’)
- Moving forward in my spiritual path
- Singing in a choir
- The community, education, and family Unity of Sedona provides
- Increasing client projects
Gratitude for material objects runs a far second to relationships in my life, be they spiritual, personal, business, social, etc. All starts and comes from Source, and as one year closes and another moves in, I set the intention to remember this.

Hurry
I love synchronicity, for it is how I “came to believe” and it continues to bolster my faith that there is a loving Something greater than myself that knows about this whole show.
That said, an email about the topic of hurrying has been sitting in my Inbox since Thursday, but I’ve not hurried to read it. How synchronistic that twisting (or whatever) my back yesterday has made me slowed down. Today, being better able to sit in my desk chair, I read it.
Here is an excerpt from my friend’s email regarding the message she received in her role as an author for the Mayan Day Keepers. To read more, you can visit her website.
I realize the message is not a new one, but I appreciate the reminder about what’s truly important.
“… never in your history has there been the need to "hurry" to do anything. What is more important is to be in joy and express love each and every moment. This entails releasing fears and habits that keep you from enjoying a passionate and compassionate life.
“Learn how to maintain a state of calm and peace no matter what storm is brewing around you. Have courage to stand in your truth, no matter who may disagree with what you say or do. Take time each day to go within, quiet your mind and set clear intentions for what you wish to accomplish. Pay attention to what is happening around you, especially in nature and be respectful to all beings who reside on the earth. Fill your heart with gratitude each moment, reveling in the beauty that surrounds you. This is your path to ascension.
“… if you still feel the need to "hurry," we would suggest your quickening be focused "inside" rather that upward. Take time to look at how you can be part of the soul-ution when it comes to creating heaven on earth.”

Life as Prayer
Today's Daily Word - Friday, October 2, 2009
PRAYER
As I turn my thoughts to God, my life becomes a prayer.
I do not need to go away to a mountaintop or seclude myself in a sacred place to spend time in prayer. I need only to turn my thoughts inward and open my mind and heart to God. In this way, I make whatever I am doing a prayer.
As I prepare a meal, I am grateful for the food, and as I clean my house, I am grateful for the restful haven it provides me. As I walk in the park, I feel a sense of oneness with all life in the world around me. As I go through my workday, I am God's instrument of good in the world, and what I do and say is an expression of God.
The more I turn my thoughts to God, the more my life becomes a prayer.
How convenient that wherever I am, whatever I am doing, talking to Spirit is just a pause away. I simply stop and refocus my attention inward.
My intention is to be in prayer more and more each waking moment, to walk consciously with Spirit 24/7. As I do so, my life is a prayer, full of gratitude that my Higher Power is with me always.

From Here to Eternity
"Savor the moment, for it is through your intention to fully embrace what is, right now, that you transform this moment into eternity."
- The Voice for Love, Saturday, September 26, 2009
“Eternity” has some interesting definitions. For some folks it means existing for a limitless amount of time, and for others, it refers to a timeless existence altogether outside of time.
Living and embracing the moment for what it is right now seems like a good idea in and of itself. How I live now will determine, to some extent, how I live in the next moment and further on down the road like tomorrow.
However I choose to use the word eternity, I know that Spirit is with me always, wherever I am. In time or outside of time, in space or outside of space, God and I are inseparable. And, that sits just fine with me.

Love for God
I’ve often wondered whether I love God, especially after hearing others passionately proclaim their love for their Higher Power. And, if I don’t love God, where does that place me, in God’s ‘eyes’ and in my own?
Well, last night I was reading from Emmet Fox’s book Power Through Constructive Thinking, getting my heart and mind tuned up to Spirit. I was heartened when I came across these words in Fox’s essay The Secret Place:
“...your love for God is not an emotion. It has really nothing to do with the feelings at all. We demonstrate and prove our love for God by praying, and by refusing to recognize error as having any power over us; by declining, out of loyalty to God, to accept anything less than the perfect harmony which is His Will.”
I don’t always refuse to recognize error as having any power over me and certainly there are times when I accept less than perfect harmony in my life. But I sure do pray. I pray a lot throughout the day, as much as I can in between the spaces of activity and oftimes during the busyness.
My intention is to connect with Spirit every millisecond that I can and to evolve spiritually. In this, I show my love for God.

Intention
My intention is to walk through this day consciously. I want to BE peace, BE love, BE patience, BE joy.
It is my intention to make this day one I enjoy (in joy) and in which I am relaxed as I provide excellent service to my clients, complete my tasks, take care of me, devote time to my personal relationships.
Spirit of the Most High –
Co-create a day with me in which I do Your Will, and all flows with ease and grace in perfect Divine Order. Fill me with gratitude at every turn. Thank You. So it is.

The People on Our Path
It’s pretty late now. Some new dear friends have just left our home after an evening of breaking bread, laughing, and continuing our getting to know one another.
For so long we’ve been meeting many nice, interesting people. Still there was something lacking. We realized we were missing the like-mindedness that Rog and I share with one another, but with very few others. Of late, that’s changed and we are meeting people that we have a lot in common with vis-à-vis spiritual philosophy and practice, and world view. It’s heartening. We feel a sense of community building and we know that in the coming days, living and working in community will not only be nurturing for all but sorely needed in the world.
We’ve set our intention to meet and thrive with like-minded souls and I’d say that the Law of Attraction is working.
Thank You, Spirit, for the wonderful people You place on our path so that we may share this journey of healing and service.

Of late, that’s changed and we are meeting people that we have a lot in common with vis-à-vis spiritual philosophy and practice, and world view. It’s heartening. We feel a sense of community building and we know that in the coming days, living and working in community will not only be nurturing for all but sorely needed in the world.
We’ve set our intention to meet and thrive with like-minded souls and I’d say that the Law of Attraction is working.
Thank You, Spirit, for the wonderful people You place on our path so that we may share this journey of healing and service.

Coffee Time
Thanks to this blog project, I’ve been spending time on the Web looking at a wealth of sites on things spiritual (sometimes religious too although that’s not of prime interest to me) that I hadn’t taken the time to before although I wanted to. I’ve also landed up signing up for e-newsletters. I am grateful this project is accomplishing what I had hoped it to.
In today’s Beliefnet’s daily inspiration, there was a link to a video by Martha Williamson, who you may recall was Executive Producer of the television show, “Touched By An Angel.” The following was included in one of the posted comments to that video:
Remember the small things in life, because someday you will realize that the BIG THINGS ARE THE LITTLE THINGS. [Posted by: Wayne Hulehan | January 6, 2009 10:25 AM]
I read this soon after my morning coffee time with Rog. During this daily ritual, our intention is to have our conversation focused solely on Spirit. We start off with an extemporaneous prayer, then share what’s happened in our spiritual life thus far that day. We may have been awake only 30 minutes, but have already been engaged with Spirit in new learning, meditation, inspirational reading, etc.
In this time not only do we get to be together, but we get to share our path, help one another sort things out, and in general, help foster both of ours spiritual growth. It is time so well spent.
When we have our afternoon coffee time, conversation is more about business and every day life. Still, we get to connect with one another, our love, and Spirit.
A coffee break may seem like a little thing to most people, but in my world, coffee time with Rog is always a BIG THING. And, I’m grateful that I won’t need to remember that - because I know it now.
