Come Sit With Me...

Dear God, my angels, guides, and other beings interested in my upliftment-

Come sit with me in peace, in the silence, as I am renewed and refreshed.

With You by my side, I take the time to breathe, to pause, to stop the busyness.

I am still and allow Your loving energy to flow through me.

May I take Your Peace, Your Love, Your Freshness, and carry them throughout the day. And, may I pass them on as I shine my light, Your Light, onto to all whom I meet.

Thank You all for Your loving, holy, blessed Presence.

And, so it is.

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.

Help Me

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.

Ways to Understand

“Fear of the unknown is natural, but it lessens as we mature in our spiritual life. “- In God’s Care, January 27, 2010

Since I ‘came to believe’ almost 20 years ago, I no longer feel that awful ache inside that I am alone - God is always with me. Where there is faith, fear cannot dwell. As I mature in my faith and spirituality, fear lessens.

I’ve learned too that there are many other entities with me as well. There is so very much going on in the unseen world, there are so many beings only too glad to help with me with living life and my spiritual growth.

I know quite a few people who are able to hear the messages from God and their other unseen friends and who are able to easily communicate back and forth, piercing the veil. I envy them - I just seem so blocked in being able to hear their guidance despite my yearning to be in conscious contact with them.

So I have developed the practice of greeting them in the morning, and saying goodnight to them when my head hits the pillow at the end of the day (and “acting as if” as much as possible). I have been praying to them - and Spirit - to release any blockages I might have and to provide a clear channel for me to hear them. The issue lays with me, not them.

Last night at the Unity of Sedona Mystic Choir’s rehearsal, we practiced a number of songs by Rickie Byars Beckwith. This morning during meditation I realized that Spirit had provided me with better languaging in my search to more readily ‘hear the voices’ of It and my angels, guides, etc.

“How can I serve today, sweet Spirit?
How can I serve, oh Lord?
Speak in ways that I will understand
Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me, I will go.”
- Lyrics by Rickie Byars Beckwith

Thank You, Spirit! Thanks to all of my other unseen friends!

God's Plan

“God guides us down the paths of life in mysterious and wonderful ways. We can’t know now how the events of this day might shape our tomorrow. But God does. From birth to death, God weaves the grand tapestry of our life. And it’s exciting to watch as His design works itself out with faith and great expectation.

Father, thank You for using whatever happens to me today to shape my future for good.”

- Scott Walker (Excerpt from Daily Guideposts, January 11, 2010)

I don’t know God’s plan for me, i.e., why I was “re-activated” (see blog post of 1/07/10 and before) just as I don’t know why I got to the state that I was in before then. But I am sure there was a purpose behind it all - in all likelihood to be of service - and I am most grateful.

I look forward with wonderful expectancy for more to be revealed in God’s Divine Plan for me. I’m on the lookout for synchronistic occurrences, guidance from Spirit and Its helpers, and all the other ways that God’s messages get broadcast to lead me to my good.

Unseen World

I’m truly realizing that there is an unseen world and how huge and rich it is.

It does not seem possible to me that we spiritual beings would take on the assignment of a human experience and still not be surrounded by the other beings that haven’t taken on physical form. And, just because I can feel blocked to communication between the physical and non-physical worlds, doesn’t mean I should not include the non-physical beings in my life.

I realize that not only do I have God and my Higher Self as my companion, helper, co-creator, and comforter, I also have His other creations close by, ready, willing, and able to be of service to me. I am truly never alone.

So these days, as I excitedly release blocks in the communication channel to my angels, guides, elementals, and all other entities interested in my upliftment, I keep all these beings in my consciousness. I greatly look forward to when the veil is lifted and I can clearly and easily receive guidance from my all spiritual friends, no matter their form.

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.

Offerings

“Hold my hand as we walk together in the silence of God's loving embrace, admiring the scenery, smelling the roses, and enjoying all that life has to offer, knowing that together we are in Heaven." – The Voice for Love, 08.29.09

Ahhh. The aforementioned quote makes me feel peaceful and fulfilled. I envision that it is Rog and me holding hands, walking together in the silence of God’s loving embrace.

But I think it goes beyond that. I am walking with angels and Holy Spirit and spirit guides, and all those other unseen entities helping me to be me in this crazy world.

I am being offered divine help and guidance to enjoy all of life’s blessings, but I must choose to take that offer, that hand, and walk the path. I am not alone.

I accept.

Thank You, God, for all Your helpers sent my way. Please enable me to feel their presence, hear their message, and rejoice in all of Life’s offerings.

Life's Upheavals

As I think of the people who’ve crossed my path recently, I see major events occurring in their world, just as there are major ones occurring in mine.

Perhaps it’s about their health, job, relationship, or home. It might appear adverse or positive, yet there’s always some kind of loss involved, even with the so-called positive changes.

I must take time to digest the change, any associated grief, and to know that God is with me throughout it all and is my strength through any rough cycle. I seize this change as a time to really reach out to Spirit, my guides, my angels, and even human beings!

Change is a particularly opportune time to grow, but I cannot do it alone. I’m grateful to have come to believe in a Power greater than myself who not only is always there for me, but helps me push my limits to grow, and makes my life and relationships rich, interesting, and meaningful.

Dear God – Please comfort those who are struggling through their life changes. May they know they are not alone and look to You for strength, guidance, love, and peace.

Today

God is with me throughout this day
The Presence guides me and paves the way

I make the choice which path to go
The voice of God, or my ego

I pray to follow God’s will today
And, thus in peace is where I’ll stay.
