Spending Time

The universe has been sending me little clues for about a month now about how important it is to spend time remembering who I really am. This could include prayer, meditation, reading a book, going to church, spending time with other people or nature and really feeling the presence of the being I am spending time with.
We can go through life just doing what needs to be done every day or we can wake up and live life. The difference is astronomical! Today the realization of how this works came to me in this example. An athlete takes the time regularly to sharpen the skill they have been given. They spend large quantities of time exercising, practicing, going over past games, making plays in their minds, etc….I could go on and on. These are actions that they put forth to get what they desire to cultivate in themselves and bring forth for the world to see.
In each of us there is a divine spark. This divine spark that is within us is also a part of God. This is who we really are. How many of us take the time to nurture this spark and bring it forth for the entire world to see? We are here to enjoy, love and be abundant. Do we do this? Do we believe this? Maybe on Sunday?
Today just for a bit, spend time listening to your thoughts. Do you love to yourself? Do you love others? Are your thoughts kind? Are you actions kind? Just changing a few things can make all the difference in your life. Take time today and look into the mirror and realize that you are perfect. You are a divine spark of God individualized. Take time to remember that and be grateful for your life. Pray, read, go to church, do something to help you to remember often. Daily take a few minutes to remember. Love yourself and as you do love will flow from you to others who are in need. Our time here is short…remember to remember.
The spirit in me bows to the spirit in you. Namaste.
I love you

Prayer/Affirmation for Happiness!

I wanted to take a moment to share with all of you a prayer that I have used to help me remember who I am and what I am focusing on. I found this in a book called "The Power of Your Subconsious Mind" by Joseph Murphy, PHD. I love this prayer/affirmation and I hope you enjoy as much as I do!

"Divine Order takes charge of my life today and everyday. All things work together for good for me today. This is a new and wonderful day for me. There will never be another day like this one. I am divinely guided all day long, and whatever I do will prosper. Divine love surrounds me, enfolds me, and enwraps me, and I go forth in peace. Whenever my attention wanders away from that which is good and constructive, I will immediately bring it back to the contemplation of that which is lovely and of good report. I am a spiritual and mental magnet attracting to myself all things that bless and prosper me. I am going to be a wonderful success in all of my undertakings today. I am definitely going to be happy all day long. "Prayer by : Joseph Murphy PHD

The Vibration of Love

Today was a very enlightening day for me. There were many messages of love that came from the universe. First the Rune that I drew this morning, then videos that I watched….I was in awe at how the synchronicity continued throughout the morning. As my day progressed I understood all the messages and I was grateful for the unfolding of the love that was flowing through me! I understood today that love is all that there is. As I love myself and understand that I am one with the divine there is no longer hate of self. When the love is inside of me then I easily recognize this love in all others. I was at breakfast at a restaurant feeling the love radiating from all the other human beings in the room. It is hard to explain how I felt but it was joyous! My heart was singing! I realized it did not matter what they were doing or what they were saying the feeling was still there. I recognized these people as part of the whole as I am….connected to the divine. This is all that mattered and it made my heart soar!As I left the restaurant I noticed the trees! They too had the same presence and my heart was overwhelmed. The birds, the flowers, the sky all had the presence! They were all connected to each other …. we are all of the same source. It was joyous.Don’t miss understand…I have know intellectually for years that we are all connected and have had glimpses of these feelings but today was the first time it was sustained for such a long period of time! It made me believe it was possible to feel this way constantly! To be in bliss at all times. Love is all there really is…when you quiet your mind from telling you what is and just observe the truth is obvious! We are all…..not just a select few…part of the source. There is only love; the rest is just an illusion.

Living in the Past is Death

Quote from Emmett Fox - Sermon on the Mount

When we seek to live upon yesterday's realization, we are actually seeking to live in the past, and to live in the past is death. The art of life is to live in the present moment, and to make that moment as perfect as we can by the realization that we are the instruments and expression of God Himself. The best way to prepare for tomorrow is to make today all that it should be.

My words:
How profound! This statement made me realize that hanging on to anything good or bad that happened in the past even if just 10 minutes ago is death! This moment right here right now is all that I have. I can choose to enjoy it to the fullest or spend it reliving the past ...moments that have already gone. I choose to enjoy my moments knowing that I am connected to God and all there is!

I hope that all of you will join me in the present moment and enjoy your life to the fullest!

Bless you all.
I love you.

Fear got you down? No problem!!

When boundaries are present, there is fear – when wholeness and unity is recognized, fear cannot exist." -- James A. Ray

Fear is defined as "an emotion experienced in anticipation of some specific pain or danger (usually accompanied by a desire to flee or fight) ". (Google Web Definitions).

The key word here is in anticipation of! Funny thing is that we have the flight or fight response for life threatening dangers but most of us use fear to paralyze us in our daily lives when there is NO real danger of losing our lives!

In today's society many us get stuck in ruts due to self-limiting thoughts. These thoughts are unproductive and limit our natural abilities to achieve goals. We talk ourselves right out of being successful! Have you listened to how you talk to yourself today? Take a minute and really listen to your self talk. Are you limiting yourself? Do you have confidence in your abilities to succeed at anything and everything or do you have doubts concerning your abilities?


These doubts are nothing but fear! Oh yes, fear hides well behind the pretense of being rational and realistic thought. However, limiting thoughts are not realistic or rational at all! There are unlimited possibilities in this universe! You can do, be and have everything that you want if you just believe!

Truth of the matter is fear limits! People don't try new things because they are afraid of failure. The difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is how they perceive failure. Successful people look at failures or mistakes as an opportunity to learn and grow and not as a negative!

Lets take a look at ways to overcome that fear!

1. Change your perception! This is can be done in a number of ways including using affirmation and meditation to change your beliefs! You can make your own affirmations and keep them posted in place where you see them often! Here is a free meditation that I discovered on line that helps with overcoming fear. This meditation has you visualize all the fear leaving your body never to return. Use any other method that works for you to change your limiting thoughts and put an end to fear. Just remember you can do anything! Henry Ford said "If you think you can you are right. If you think you cannot you are right."

2. Take action. Start moving toward your goals! Small steps if needed but do something.

3. Persist, Persist, Persist. If one action does not produce the desired results try a different approach. Keep trying until you get the desired results.

4. If you are feeling fearful or not getting the desired results don't criticize yourself. Simply put do not take it personally. Learn from the experience whatever it is. You can either have a cup half full or half empty at any moment in your life. Every cloud has a silver lining - look for it always!

5. Give thanks! Gratitude is very important and give thanks for it all and not just the things that you perceive to be "good". Give thanks for you life with all of the ups and downs and enjoy the ride.

If you are enjoying the ride there is no time to be afraid!

Bless you all
I love you.

Anything is possible if you only believe!!

I am overwhelmed this morning with the desire to share my experiences with the book called The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. My only intention is to share my faith and experiences so that you all may at least consider the possibility.

I first watched The Secret in June of 2006. I tried watching at my house on my computer but was having no luck. I quickly called a friend and went over to her house where we watched together.

After watching The Secret only once I came home and made a of what I wanted, took a $1.00 bill and added 6 zeros to the end and made it 1 million dollars, and cut out a picture of a new car. Over the next few days I focused on these things but did no actual work on myself and went back to my old routine - I like to call it going back to sleep.

Around the first part of February 2007 I was spending the afternoon with my daughter in law who had recorded the Oprah show the prior week. We watched the first show Oprah had on regarding The Secret. Suddenly, I was reawakened, revitalized and motivated. I asked my daughter-in-law to buy the book online and send it to my son. I went to the bookstore the next day and bought the audio book on CD.
(Without distracting from the story I would like to point out that just like any other book, if a movie is made it only has highlights of the material covered in the book....In my opinion, true understanding of the secret is only possible when reading the entire text and taking all of it into consideration).

The following week, my boss let me off work early one day unexpectedly. I got home at exactly 4:00 pm and decided to turn on the TV, and I wondered what is on Oprah. The Secret revisited! The second show that Oprah had concerning the Secret.

Over the next couple of weeks, I focused my attention on my thoughts, my beliefs, and myself. I became aware of the things that I was giving attention to and that were dominating my thoughts. I began to change the pictures of my life with love, faith, and gratitude. I manifest on a regular basis, and there are so many examples that I could list....However, I have chosen the one that is the most dramatic for me.

On Tuesday Feb. 19, 2007 I was sitting in my car at work over lunch hour listening to the audio CD of The Secret, I was declaring my perfect health. I believed that I received it and was giving gratitude for it. I looked over at my hand and there was a half smoked cigarette still burning between my first two fingers. I paused and stared at it for a moment focusing my attention on it and completely aware. I realized at that moment that my actions were not mirroring my desires of perfect health. I was saying one thing and doing quite another.

I proclaimed to the Universe at that moment " I AM A NON SMOKER". I believed it was true and done that instant! I gave thanks for it - I was totally exhilarated. I believe that I was completely aligned with the Universe and God and at that moment asked for what I wanted, believed I received it, and gave thanks. After 25+ years of smoking I was a non-smoker at that moment and for the rest of my existence.

However, the story continues......A few days later I was decluttering my house making room for the new pictures of my life and I came across the list of wants that I had made during June of 2006......on the list was QUIT SMOKING. I asked, I believed, and I received and I am forever grateful for this entire experience because it has forever changed my life.

I did not know how it would be done. I just knew it to be true. Again, I asked believe, and receive. With no patches, gum, anything ----- It has not been difficult, I believe this is because I am following my flow....I am one with God and all. I am grateful!!!

Jesus told us over and over again....Believe.....Ask and if you believe you shall receive. He did not give us instructions saying you can only ask for this or that......He just said ask and you receive if you believe. All it takes is faith.
It is not just magical thought. It is thought that is full of love, faith and gratitude. In addition, action is required! You have to ask, you have to give thanks and you have to receive it.

I am sharing this will all of you with the sincere desire that this information will make a difference...to share with you the glory of life for it is spectacular! To share with you the joy of being connected to the Universe. He is a part of everything.....which means that he is a part of all of us. None of us are ever disconnected from the divine.

Bless you all,
I love you
