Spiritual Awakening: Don’t Stop!!!
As you experience a spiritual awakening you will have moments that will having you wanting to stop as you feel you have gone far enough in your journey. When those moments come into your life take a moment to remember that you are a divine child of GOD and GOD wants you to prosper so that you can prosper others. Many times people throw in the towel and stop and never realize their full potential. Today we are bombarded with many doubters, haters, and naysayeers who will nebver understand why we continue to fight on to reach our goals and dreama. We must block those people out and continue on our path and move forward in a positive direction of our dreams. There are going to be circumstances that we can not control such as decisions that other people make. When we want to stop we must reach down deep inside of our selves and remember that we have a power that needs to be unleashed so as to pistively impact our lives and the lives of others. IT is time to be a warrior.
It is when we have a warrior mindset that we can continue on our spiritual journey toward enlightment thus allowing us to shine our light and illuminate the world. Many times we have a tendacy to over analyze and worry about so much that we stop right before a break through is about to happen. The time is now to find your stride and to continue on your path to greatnesss and you were born to be great. I have had moments where I wanted to quit because I felt that people were not resonating with my message and were not responding to me like I would have liked them to but after I took a moment to reflect I remembered that I must not stop because if I stop my mission to be of service and value to others I stop growing personally, professionally, and spiritually. It is time to step up and get back up and achieve the goals I have set for myself and I encoiurage yiu to do the same.
Many times when you want to quit simply rest and reflect but do not stop as you have a inner divinity inside of you to tap into to make a connection with GOD so that you can attract peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. It is in the times that seem the hardest that we find the strength to perservere and become stronger understanding that if GOD brought you to it GOD will bring you through it. I have had many ideas that I have implemented that I didn’t get the response that I was hoping for and I wanted to stop and simply fade away but I knew if I di that that I would only be shrt changing myself and the people that I was meant to help. In the last few months I have had some challenges in my fundraising efforts for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life and I wanted to give up and stop as I thought after 25 years of fundraising I have done enough and it is time for someone else to do what I have done and then I am reminded why I continue to do what I do and not to stop because there are so many people who actually appreciate what I do. After a few negative encounters I simply took a moment to mediate and through the meditation the message I received I began to comprehend the idea that some will, some won’t, some waiting, so what, next. I have come to understand that when you put yourself out there you will encounter some people who are simply not interested in anything you are doing but those that are meant to help will be put in your path. Sometimes it is simply a matter of being committed to finish what yiou started. When you feel like giving in and stopping remember that you are here for a reason.
It is when you finmd you purpose and your reason that you begin to tap into the resources that will not allow you to stop. I have found that for every no or negative interaction there are more yeses and more positive interactions to come. IT is time to focus on the positive interactions and to understand that I am going to encounter excuse makers and action takers. It is importsant to show gratitude for the action takers and to simply let the excuse makers pound sand. It is your time to soar.
Another dream of mine was to become a published author which became a reality when I became a featured author in Sources Of Wisdom Book 2 which then led me to be a featured author in Sources Of Wisdom Book 3. I also have had my poetry published on line at www.poetry.com and have won a few editor’s choice awards. This all came about by taking action and realizing that if you are to turn your dreams into reality you must put aside all the doubters, haters, and naysayers and believe in yourself. As I reflect on all the dreams that I have had that have come true I realize that regardless of how tough things may get you must be strong and hold fast your dreams. Do not allow others to hold you back simply take positive steps to bring your dreams to fruition.
It is time that we get it together by understanding that we are all divine children of GOD and that GOD wants us to prosper so that we can prosper others. It is time to find ways to get it together by being of service and value to one another. It is time to change the narrative that is being forced upon by through the government and media and to write our own narrative where people will get together on the same wave length and start to help one another. It is time to make sure everyone has their basic needs met so they have food, shelter, and clothing. The number on reason why we are having trials and tribulations in our community is that many people are simply desperate and have lost their way and now need to get it together. I have come to learn that the opposite of progress is congress and the politicos are not going to change things as the same issues we have today have been happening for many years. Many will point to the fact that we took prayer and discipline out of schools and we stopped holding people accountable for their actions and they would be correct however the question is how are you going to take action to get it together and make positive changes. Now is the time to get it together and make a commitment to be a positive influence in the community. I have found that part of the issue is that we have become a country that has gotten greedy, fat, and lazy which as you know are 3 of the 7 deadly sins so of course we have angered GOD and all that is happening is GOD’S way of telling us to get it together and to shape up.
As I was posting and sending out requests for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life I had some one comment that in a time when people are struggling it may not be the best time to be asking for donations. I wrote back true there are many people struggling however there are also many people thriving and because cancer affects people daily I will continue my quest to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. As I finished my reply I began to think that it is all a matter of perspective and that many people are coming from a position of lack as opposed to coming from a position of abundance. I have come across so many people that are coming from a lack mentality that they remain stuck as they have created blockages that stop them from stepping into there power and achieving greatness. The time is know to change your perspective if you are coming from a lack mentality and to start thinking abundantly. Instead of saying things are tough and I am struggling say I am facing challenges and things are improving. Instead of making excuses as why you can not do something become an action taker and use your talents for good and see where that leads. It is your time to thrive and it starts with you awakening spiritually and changing your perspective.
