Spiritual Awakening: The Spiritual Lessons Of MLK!!!
As we mark the life of a great man, Martin Luther King Jr., today we have the opportunity to delve into his teachings and further our spiritual awakening. We can ask ourselves how am I living a life of light and love? As we explore this question we can see how shining our light is helping to create a better world filled with peace, love, and happiness.
It is when we awaken spiritually and decide to move forward in the direction of our dreams by becoming an action taker that we create a world that is filled with joy and abundance. It is when we embrace our gifts and stand for something that others see and take action as well. When you become an action taker you begin to see how you can create and manifest the life you desire. You must be willing to do something that will not only serve you but serve others.
Each day ask yourself how am I being of service and value to others and then continue to serve. I am currently raising funds for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton. By giving people a chance to visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg1 and list their website I am being of service and value to those affected by cancer by raising funds for research, education, advocacy, and services while providing people a platform to promote themselves and create an advocate for them. It is when we make a conscious effort to serve that we began to become spiritually awakened and placed on a path toward enlightenment.
Standing up and walking in your truth is an important part of any spiritual awakening as it allows you open up the channels to make a mind, body, soul connection and to utilize anthems that will enhance your personal and professional life. By helping yourself and educating yourself and learning as much as you can about your own spirituality you will be able to make a difference in the lives of others by making a commitment to come alive and to prove that service to humanity is the best work of life.
When I think of spiritual awakening and spirituality I think of acceptance, speaking your truth, forgiveness, unification, service, and righteousness. These were all thinks that Martin Luther King JR. not only spoke about but was a living example of these traits. He showed an nation how to come alive and embrace the fact that we are more alike than different. We still have a long way to go to achieve the world he dreamed of, however each day that we awaken spiritually and become a beacon of hope for others through our positive actions we can continue to grow spiritually, mentally, and physically and make our world a better place one community at a time. If you see a chance to make a difference take it. If you see an opportunity to help someone achieve the dreams go for it. Do not allow fear or ignorance to hold you or anyone else back. Become that action taker and watch what begins to unfold in your life and in the lives of others.
