Spiritual Awakening: Calmness Has Its Rewards!
Through out the spiritual awakening process I have come to understand that in the face of a challenge where your human existence seems to want to take over your spiritual existence you must take a deep breath and remain calm. In staying calm in the heat of a adverse moment will lead to unexpected rewards. Today (8/4/2017) I stopped by Starbucks after doing some banking. I went to recharge my card to be told it was on hold. Instead of getting mad I calmly called the 1-800 number. I waited on hold for a while and finally after what seemed an eternity I spoke to a customer service representative. We had a pleasant exchange and at the end she informed that she was adding $10 to my card because I was inconvenienced. In taking action in a calm manner I was rewarded. As we continue along our path toward spiritual enlightenment it is important to remember that when you are calm the vibration you give off will be met with calmness and you will be rewarded. In remaining calm and staying positive you put out a vibration to the universe showing that you have evolved as a spiritual being and you are ready to receive the resources desired to create the life that you want.
In every situation you encounter it is important to stay calm, cool, and collected. Self-control is one of the fruits of spirit that allows us to progress in a positive manner in our personal, professional, and spiritual life. It is imperative to remember that the only person you can change is you. getting heated and angry does not serve you as it is like wrestling a pig in the mud you both get dirty but the pig enjoys it. The best way to solve a problem is to simply take a deep breath and remain calm for getting angry only escalates the problem and many times makes the situation worse. Today at the bank a woman was in the non-customer line and she was a customer she was taken before a few people and one guy remarked I guess the rest of us are invisible. I simply made a joke and said oh English and Reading Classes start Monday followed by I am kidding. In doing this it seemed to ease the tension and everyone relaxed a little bit understanding that waiting is part of the process. have learned that having a sense of humor and being comfortable with who I am goes a long way in easing the most tense situations. I understand there will be times when your patience is tried because the people you are dealing with may not be as spiritually evolved as you are so when this happens you must simply let go and Let GOD. I do my best to remember that the way things are and the way things should be are two different things. In staying calm I have been rewarded.
As I went to turn on my car yesterday (7/14/2017) it would not turn over.I was very fortunate that I had a charger and I gave it charge and it started. I went to Ocello’s Automotive Center and it turned out I needed a new battery. I left my car and this gave me time to truly embrace the spiritual awakening process as I started to think just like a car needs good balanced energy to run efficient as humans we need good balanced energy to function so that we can embrace the fact that we are spiritual beings having a human experience. In the past I would have gotten mad and angry that I had to spend my hard earned money in this manner but yesterday I was grateful that I had the money to pay for the services needed for my car and that I was in a good position to continue to be an action taker. My car is now running properly and serving as a tool to continue on my mission to be of service and value to others.
It is when you adopt a don’t quit attitude that you can come out of the dark and step into the light by embracing the fact that you a re a divine child of GOD and GOD has great plans for you. There will be some set backs along the way so do not get discouraged simply take the set backs as an opportunity to rest and to reset so that you can move forward in a positive direction of your dreams. As you find your purpose and following your calling you will find yourself making changes that will propel you to great achievements allowing you to come alive thus empowering and inspiring others to do the same.
