Spiritual Awakening: Turning The Page!!!
As I listened to Bob Seger’s Turn The Page I began to think about spiritual growth and how important it is to turn the page and not to hold onto to the past for too long. In the past and up until now I would fret over things and then I would realize that worry holds no purpose for when it is all said and done the only voice that matters is the voice of GOD. Through Studying The Ascended Masters like Jesus I have learned that all we can do is to perform at our highest level in all that we do and glorify GOD. If we do this as we awaken spiritually we move along our spiritual path and will be led to enlightenment. In our human existence we run into many challenges for our way of doing things is a bit different that what others perceive to normal. As a spiritual being having a human existence it is important to turn the page and move ahead in our spiritual development realizing that there will always be those who do not understand us and that it is not our job to drag them kicking and screaming onto our path but rather to shine our light that they will want to come along with us willingly. As I reflect in 2014 I can take solace in knowing that I did what I felt was right in my heart and that I was directed by GOD to make a positive difference in my life and the lives of others. I came to the realization that though our society judges success by the material things that one has there is more to life than just the materialistic one must have a spiritual compass that allows them to be in tune with their inner divinity. I have learned that one must have a sense of purpose in order to find success. I have learned it is not the what you do that matters but the why. I have learned that not everyone will share the level of passion you have and that sometimes people will say they they want to do something but when it actually comes to doing it they may not come through.
When I have difficulty in turning the page and moving on I turn to the teachings of spiritual leaders like Don Miguel Ruiz. The best gift I was given a few years ago was a gift from my mother, The Four Agreements, by Don Miguel Ruiz. These teachings have helped me and many others to move positively in the direction of our dreams.
It is when we look at these agreements and implement them that we are able to step into the greatness and accept the prosperity that GOD has for us. I am a strong believer that when you say you are going to do something that you do it. If something truly stops you from being able to fulfill your commitment then be authentic and find a way to make amends. Detaching yourself and taking you out if the equation all together will help you to find more success.many times it is not about you or your issues but about the person you are dealing with. Remember when you turn the page that the incident didn’t happen to you it happened for you. I have learned not to assume and have come to realize that not everyone lives by the rules I choose to live by. This has become very evident in y fundraising efforts for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton as I learned don’t assume that just because people are on a committee with you that they will support you. The 4th agreement is very important because at the end of the day the only thing that endures is your character.
New Year’s Day has always meant a time to reflect, relax, rejuvenate, watch football and plan out first 31 days of the year to set intentions, to close the book on the past so I can move forward into the present by living in the moment. As you read in past entries I have declared 2015 as The Year Of Growth and Expansion. I will be letting go of the people, places, and things, that no longer serve me. I will be looking at what I can do differently and will be very aware so as to make effective changes that will enhance my personal, professional, and spiritual life. I hope you have much success in turning the page and that you will always stay positive. I wish you peace, love, joy, and prosperity.
