Spiritual Awakening: Be The Miracle!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Be The Miracle!!!! 

 

As I watched this video I kept thinking of the scene from Bruce Almighty where Jim Carey’s character Bruce tell the audience to be the miracle!!! I kept thinking how can you be a blessing for others? This led me to think of ways you can pay it forward and further your spiritual awakening?  I began to ask myself how can I become an action taker and make a positive difference. The answer was simple look to GOD and co-create opportunities to lift others up and show them that everything is possible. I have always subscribed to the belief that service to humanity is the best work of life and I begin my day with a question, how can I be of service and value today? I have adopted a few anthems along the way like Janet Lee Kraft’s Love Is The Highest Way and Tiffany Millander’s Awaken.

Spiritual Awakening: Changes In Lattitudes, Changes in Attitude!!!!

Spiritual Awakening:Changes in Latitudes,Changes in Attitude!!!

 Today’s  entry was inspired by Jimmy Buffet and his song, Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes.  As I listened to the song I realized all the spiritual references such as not looking back for to long, having the ability to laugh and then having the ability to move forward on our path to spiritual awakening.   Have you ever noticed that when you change your latitude that your attitude changes. Sometimes it can be as easy as moving a little forward or backward that we begin to see a different perspective on life. In many cases it is when we take responsibility for our attitude that we begin to realize that what is happening for us has nothing to do with others but with ourselves.

 It is when we decide to change that we truly begin to have a spiritual awakening. When we put the past behind and realize you can not change what has happened we begin to move forward in our spiritual development to have this spiritual awakening. In having a spiritual awakening we are better able to understand why certain things are occurring and why certain people react to us and our actions in a certain way. When we begin to understand that for this spiritual awakening to continue we must check our EGO at the door as EGO is Edging GOD Out. When you don’t have that relationship with GOD you begin to question everything and thus remain stuck and never change the latitude or the attitude.  It takes a great deal of courage to go deep inside yourself to have this spiritual awakening and to share what you have found as many may not be ready to explore their divinity and have their own spiritual wakening. You have the opportunity to find the answers that you seek as you begin to awaken spirituality more and more. It is when you make the commitment to follow the purpose that you have discovered through your spiritual awakening that you begin co-create the life that you desire. By remembering that all things are possible through GOD you will experience your spiritual awakening and be given the direction in order to be of service and value to yourself and others.

Each day as part of my spiritual awakening I read this book from Rev. Dr. Dee Adio-Moses. Today Passage was about having GOD as my boss. It reminded me that the highest upon all high is GOD and GOD is who I shall listen to as GOD provides the messages to help me further my purpose and to understand this spiritual awakening process. I have come to realize that GOD doesn’t give us anything we can’t handle, GOD gives us what we can handle is an effort to season us and strengthen us so that we can shine our light for others to see so that they can watch what GOD is doing in our life and know GOD is working inn their life as well.

 As part of my spiritual awakening I have come to understand that GOD has enabled me to be awoken and has given me a mission to help other people excel. I have come to realize that the messages GOD sends are to be listened to and obeyed as GOD has a purpose for you and knows you will carry out that purpose. GOD may have to get angry with you so that you receive the message and act upon it and create a spiritual awakening for those you interact with.

 Every morning as part of my spiritual awakening ritual I read a passage from Mary Morrissey’s Book, The Miracle Minute.  In March of 2012 I had the opportunity to gift copies of her book to the attendees of The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards. Those that have utilized this book have definitely changed their latitude and thus changed their attitude thus furthering their spiritual awakening. Today the passage I read spoke of being a vision holder and encouraging others by supporting their vision. As I read the passage I was reminded  about the concept of being a lifter and thought how will I life someone today? The answer was simple by being an action taker and sharing this blog with others I am lifting the reader and helping them to have their spiritual awakening and to embrace their divinity.

 Today change your latitude change your attitude and you will begin to see the greatness that is in you. It is important to unleash that greatness and show others how you are shining your light and how your spiritual awakening is creating the life you desire. Remember, Stay Positive!

Spiritual Awakening: The Grand Illusion!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: The Grand Illusion!!!

 How many times have we fooled ourselves into believing something because of the Grand Illusion that has come to be known to us. This Grand Illusion has held us back sometimes because we were afraid to break free. It was when I had a Spiritual awakening that this  a Grand Illusion began to fade. Upon realizing that life was a big  Grand Illusion I decided that I would do things for  the glory of GOD and Jesus and answer the two questions that really matter did I live my life in joy and did my life bring joy to others?  Upon asking those questions and living a life of service and value I have found my life is happier. It was when I began to look beyond the Grand Illusion and inside myself that I began to achieve goals that brought me happiness and as a result enhanced the lives of others. In Ecclesiastes it speaks of doing good and being of service and by doing so GOD will reveal his purpose for you.

Spiritual Awakening: It’s My Life!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: It’s My Life!!!!

 
 Today’s entry is inspired by The John Bon Jovi Song It’s My Life. When I think of the concept of spiritual awakening I realize that the 1st step is to take ownership for who you are and what you do. As you begin to find who you are and what your purpose is you begin to create the life that you want for yourself. In the morning when you get up remind yourself that this is your life as it has been given to you by GOD.  As you give thanks to GOD for your life you set in motion circumstances that will place you in GOD’S favor. I begin each day by saying Today is The Day the Lord hat Made Be Glad and Rejoice In It. I then do a gratitude prayer thanking GOD for the life he has given me. I then ask GOD for direction and guidance for the day and I receive the answer and when I listen and obey the message the day flows and I feel great. The question for you is how do you honor GOD in your life.

   One aspect of leading the life that GOD has intended for you is to show joy, gratitude, and reverence in all the deeds you do as you shine your light. By following the messages and becoming an action taker you set in motion the events to manifest the life you desire. It is very possible to speak things into existence as your thoughts become actions that are directed by GOD. You may ask then why is it I have challenges in my life? The answer is for GOD is strengthening you so you can strengthen others. GOD never puts anything on your plate that you can not handle.  Recently I had a situation with my cell as I made the human decision not to get insurance on the phone and the battery swelled creating a major problem, the phone was out of warranty, instead of getting angry when the salesperson at Verizon couldn’t help me I calmly called customer service and explained the situation by the end of the call I had a new phone and only had to pay an upgrade fee. The first thing I did when I left the store was thank GOD and Jesus for helping me to stay calm and resolve the situation.  The next time a challenge arises stay calm and ask GOD for guidance and he will help you to come through it as he understands that it is your life.

Spiritual Awakening: The Spiritual Hall Of Fame!!!

 Spiritual Awakening: The Spiritual Hall Of Fame!!!

 

       As I watched the enshrinement into The NFL Hall Of Fame of Warren Sapp, Curley Culp, Cris Carter, Larry Allen, Bill Parcells, Dave Robinson, and Jonathan Ogden I began to see that each one of the inductees had a spiritual awakening of some sort that propelled them to greatness. As the ceremony ended I came up with the concept of The Spiritual Hall Of Fame.

Spiritual Awakening: Finding The Reason!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Finding The Reason!!!!

 

 
Today’s entry was inspired by Earth Wind and Fire’s song Reasons that was first released in 1975. As I listened to the lyrics I began to think of the age old spiritual awakening question of  Why Am I Here? I then remembered a saying about the two greatest days in a person’s life the day they are born and the day they discover why. In discovering why you are here you will begin to find what is bringing joy to your life and how you are bringing joy to other.  One of the best ways to find the reason is to ask GOD and look for what he is putting in front of you and how you are excelling then continue to focus on that.  I have discovered that my reason is to help other people excel as they continue on their path to spiritual awakening.  I have found that by using my talents for good that my reason is confirmed each time I interact with others. The key is to find a reason and then discover how that reason is of value and service to others.

Spiritual Awakening: Tools to Help You Find The Reason!!!

 

I use songs like Cliff Nobles, The Horse, and Terry Jacks, Seasons in The Sun to get centered and grounded and then I ask my question as Why Am I Here Today? God What Direction Are You Pointing Me In Today? I then seek signs and act upon them and most of the time it comes to a joyous celebration of the day. When you put joy in your heart and share that joy with others you will find the reason that you are here.

This song Wildfire by Michael Martin Murphy is a great way to set the mood and remember that I am here to be of joy and to spread joy as I continue to help others on their path to a spiritual awakening.

Spiritual Awakening: Getting Blown!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Getting Blown!!!

 

 Okay where did your mind take you on that title? As part of my spiritual awakening I have learned that sometimes sitting quietly outside and being aware of the wind you will find the answer. I have developed a spiritual practice that I like to call Getting Blown where I sit quietly outside with my hands face up in my lap and my feet firmly on the ground my eyes closed allowing the wind to blow around me and through me. There are times I will burn incense as I do this and many times I find the answer. When was the last time that you took a moment to just quiet your mind and find the answers that are blowing in the wind?

Spiritual Awakening: Getting Blown- The Wind And Its Meaning

  Native American symbol for wind  The indigenous people of North America, Native Americans considered the wind to be a living force in and of itself . The wind is a god – a power that is capable of communicating a larger-than-life language to those who would hear it. Those who were certifiably authorized to interpret these cosmic messages were shamans, medicine men, and the wise and spiritual leaders among tribes. Wine represents:

  • Unity
  • Freedom
  • Eternity
  • Balance

 The Inuit Indians had an Air Spirit among the ranks of their Sila (a term that means Wisdom and Weather). Their Air Spirit controls the seas, skies and wind. Although considered a kind and beneficial spirit, it strikes wrath against liars, beggars and thieves in the form of illnesses. It is also blamed for bad weather and poor hunting.

Spiritual Awakening: GOD’S Master Plan!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: GOD’S Master Plan!!!

 

 As I was given the news that an announcing gig I had was cancelled I was a bit upset, however after realizing that the cancellation is part of my spiritual awakening and that it is all part of GOD’S Master Plan I understood that something better is coming my way. I spent most of my morning today (7/20/13) praising good and cleansing my condo of all negative energies and infusing the condo with positive energy. I kept thanking GOD for I understand he will make a way and that his plan’s for me are far greater than my plans for me.  As I finished with my praise and my daily rituals to get centered and grounded I realized that everything happens for a reason and that perhaps GOD was protecting me from something concerning the announcing gig. As I sat in meditation, the message was clear JDOGG stop undervaluing your services you are worth everything you charge and abundance is your birthright.  As I came out  of the meditation I was directed to make a phone call to the franchise owner of another team that I work with. It was then that I called the owner of one of the other sports teams I work with and she gave me some solid guidance and reaffirmed that there was something else GOD wanted me to do and that was help one of her players get to The All Star Game.  It was then that I decided to promote www.miamifuryfootball.com and ask people to donate to help the player get to The All Star Game. I also realized that it is not always about the money that in many cases it is about being of service and value and understanding the money will follow. It is when we understand that it is GOD’S Master Plan that directs us that we begin to have success. It is through our gratitude to GOD that we are given the riches that are our birthright. It is when we seek GOD that the answers come. We are all divine children of GOD with spiritual gifts and when we embrace the divinity and utilize our spiritual gifts for good that we are awakened spiritually and thus able to help others have a spiritual awakening.

    All through out our spiritual teachings we have learned that the best thing we can do is let go and let GOD for GOD knows the plans he has for us. It is not for us to make things happen it is for us to allow GOD to direct us what to make happen. Today loom fro the messages that GOD is giving you and take action upon those messages. Today adopt an anthem that will help you to better understand that GOD has a master plan for you.  As part of your spiritual awakening do things to glorify and honor GOD.

Spiritual Awakening: Filled With Fire!!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Filled With Fire!!!

    ... but one involving a man who apparently lit himself on fire last night 10

        The element of Fire is pure spirit, it is vitality and passion, energy and victory, the will and the power to act. It can mean pride and honor but also brutality and destruction. It is the gentle warmth and the soft light but also the terrible eruption of a volcano. The Sun as the ultimate symbol of Fire is a life-giver and was adored as such since time began, but the heat of the Sun could be a cruel murderer if it burned too hot.

    Fire is the energy of heat and light, chemically a combustion reaction. It springs up fast and can burn wild and bright, yet it needs fuel to keep going. It is generally seen as the strongest and most powerful element but also as the one with the least endurance. Being seen in the fiery filaments  as well as in the bowels of earth fire is both the highest and lowest element, given its archaic character it is both the most noble and the most primitive.

Mankind had been fascinated with Fire ever since, watching it with awe and caution. Fire was about the most important precondition for man to rise from the level of animals, it provided means to cook and to have a light in the night, it enabled man to forge metal and build up a civilization and further the advances of their society. One of the four classical elements, the old Greek differentiated between the destructive Fire (Aidêlon) connected to the god of the underworld, Hades, and the creative, benevolent Fire (Aidês) connected to Hephaistos, the god of the blacksmiths and craftsmen.

      When fire is used in a proper way it can ignite us along the path to a spiritual awakening. Once awakened we feel the fire deep inside and when we take action to keep it kindled we begin to realize how divine we are and how powerful we become when we co-create with GOD. GOD Places this fire inside of all of us and it is up to us to use it for the power of good.

Spiritual Awakening: Tools To Get Filled With Fire

      One of my favorite songs is Hearts On Fire from Rocky it is a song that can help to become you aware of the fire that burns inside of you and is ready to erupt.

o
Another song that assists in being filled with fire and fueling your heart with love is Neil Diamond’s Turn On Your Heart Light. If you can name the movie it is from you get a big round of applause to fuel your fire.

 
One could not write about fire and not include the Billy Joel Classic, We Didn’t Start The Fire. The fire is always burning inside of us the question is how are we going to use this powerful element to spark up our lives and enhance the lives of others.

    Bible verses make for great tools to help you become filled with fire.

  Keeping quotes and sharing them with others is a great way to become filled with fire.

 Burning incense and meditating as they burn is a great tool to find the fire within and ignite it.

 fire agateFire stones such as The Fire Agate are great tools for embracing the fire with in.

Fire Agate has a deep calming energy that brings security and safety. It is a protection stone with strong grounding powers.

Fire agate is said to represent absolute perfection. It instills spiritual fortitude.

Fire agate links to the fire element and is used as an aid to improve sexual activity, stimulating vitality and opening the base chakra.

Hold a fire agate to inspire inner knowledge to emerge in the resolution of problems. It also helps in overcoming addictions, and other destructive desires.

Healing properties of fire agate

Healers use fire agate to:

  • Assist with healing the stomach, nervous, endocrine systems
  • Strengthen night vision
  • Reduce hot flashes

I finish this entry with this meditation as a gift to you to help you be filled with fire and to step into your power embracing your greatness so as to enhance your personal and professional life. Until next time remember to shine your light and stay positive.

Spiritual Awakening: Life Is A Coloring Book!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Life Is A Coloring Book!!!

 As I sat in Burger King with my FREE HUGS, STAY POSITIVE Sign I began to contemplate the fact that Life Is A Coloring Book, which led to the furthering of my own spiritual awakening. I began to look at the colors I decided to use on the sign and I realized that each had a meaning and that I was guided by source to use certain colors as I wrote the sign. I then chose to explore the meaning of colors and what it means to look at life as a coloring book. We can choose to stay with the lines and limit ourselves or we can color outside the lines and be limitless in all we do. We have the ability to color our own world and to shine our light in our own coloring book as we begin to awaken spiritually and explore the horizons that we see. When we take a moment to see GOD’S creations in this coloring book we begin to see the beauty that is all around us and with this recognition of beauty we also see the beauty in ourselves.  When we pick up our spiritual crayons and we begin to draw out our beauty we begin to find beauty in others and the world around us improves.  We may ask why did I choose the color car drive or the color of the walls in my home, or the colors that I like and now we know it is because life is a coloring book.

 In my coloring book I have a sign that I brought to life in hopes of inspiring people and touching their lives with a positive thought for the day.  Everyone’s coloring book will have different pictures that inspire and empower them to take action.  It was a big step for me to make this sign and bring it to life and share it in public as at first I was fearful about what people would think, then I took that deep breathe, meditated, and understood it doesn’t matter what other people will say. What matters is that I bring my coloring book to life and touch lives as I walk my spiritual path. It is in the journey in our coloring book that we begin to discover our authentic self and we then express ourselves by shining our light.
