As I awoke this morning (6/8/2019) I was given a message to connect with a friend and to help him on a project he is working on. As I got ready to leave my house another message was received to bring a few of the beanie babies I have as part of Beanie Babies For The Cure to Starbucks with me and to bring the collection bucket and the Luminaria Bag that reads Donations Accepted. I headed this message and all of a sudden I felt more aware and awake. As I arrived at Starbucks I set up the beanie babies on my table and it drew attention. It also helped that I am wearing my Relay For Life gear which becomes a conversation starter. In tuning into the messages and taking action I felt myself becoming more and more aware and as a result was able to interact with patrons at Starbucks and connect on a cellular level. In waking up to awareness and embracing the spiritual awakening process you will be able to come out of any darkness you may be experiencing and step into the light which will allow you to tap into your inner divinity and connect with GOD so that you can create the life you desire.
When you have a spiritual awakening and you commit to being truthful to yourself by peeling back the onion and getting to your core you will see that your life begins to flow just as GOD has intended. Many times we thwart our spiritual growth because we are trying to impress others and we become something we are not. When this happens we find ourselves allowing EGO, which is edging GOD out, to get in our way. We often get so caught up in worrying about what others will think about us that we stop doing what GOD is guiding us to do and as a result we find ourselves creating hardships for ourselves. Now is the time to look deep inside of ourselves and to tap into our divinity by being true to ourselves. Don’t be afraid to speak your truth and be honest with yourself and others. Take solace in knowing that is okay to feel angst for the trials and tribulations that we go throw strengthen us and allow us to be true to ourselves. We are taught to visualize what we want and to act as if and this is all well and good if it doesn’t compromise your core beliefs and who you are. It is important to stay centered, focused, and grounded as you take the action necessary to stay true to your self. In being true to who you are and finding your purpose you will find yourself attracting more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. In the last 40 years of my life I have had ups and downs and in some cases found myself struggling because I wasn’t being true to who I am thus creating blockages that have slowed the process of evolving personally, professionally, and spiritually. In order to affect change I found that I had to come alive and detach from outcomes and serve my community and sometimes I had to stand alone. It was in standing for something that I found my calling and have been able to continue to be of service and value to others. The fact of the matter is that I needed to see what I was doing to create the situations I found myself in and were they in alignment with what GOD had planned for me. I had to take feelings and emotions out of the equation and allow everything to flow the way GOD intended. One element that has helped me to be true to myself is the element of forgiveness.
As I was in a great deal of pain today due to my diabetic nephropathy and other medical conditions I asked GOD to lift me and guide me as it has been a trying time in my life. GOD gave me the strength to go to The American Cancer Society Office to drop of money that I have raised for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life. I was going to go home and rest however GOD directed me to Starbucks to work on posting www.gofundme.com/help-jdogg-save-his-condo and to send messages. In following GOD’S directions I was able to secure $60 in donations which gets me that much closer to making a mortgage payment. As I continued to share the link I realized that It is GOD who gives us the mighty wings to soar to the greatness that is our birthright. It is GOD who will bring us to challenges and it is GOD who will bring us through challenges. I have come to understand through the spiritual awakening process that GOD will not give us anything that we can not handle and he will put people in place who will lift us and who will help us to soar on Mighty Wings. I have come to learn that all things are possible through Christ who strengthens me and that when you are connected to Christ you will be able to overcome all the challenges that you are facing in your life. Sometimes things may seem dark and it may seem as though our mighty wings are being clipped. It is at those times that you must turn back to the scriptures and become centered, focused, and balanced by taking action to continue your relationship with GOD. It is when we feel blocked that we must trust the process and press on for GOD’S Plan for us is far greater than the plan we have for ourselves. In awakening you gain the mighty wings that will allow you to soar to great heights in your personal, professional, and spiritual life. As you seek GOD, Jesus, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels you will find that you receive the answers to the questions that you are asking. In allowing GOD to give you mighty wings you will show your grace and see that grace wins.
As I sat at a memorial service for a friend’s mother I had an opportunity to pray and commune with GOD who directed me to Psalm 23 and Ecclesiastes 3. As I read the scripture I began to realize that GOD has all the blessings and will give them to you when GOD feels you are ready to receive them.
As I left the chapel and witnessed the butterfly release I began to think about the blessing GOD has given to us all and that is the ability to metamorphize. Like the caterpillar we to need to die to ourself so as to metamorphize and become a butterfly so as to become the beautiful being that GOD has created and to soar to the heights that GOD has intended for us to reach. It is important to understand that what GOD gives to you is meant to help you grow personally, professionally, and spiritually. Many times GOD gives us messages so that we can metamophize and change our lives and the lives of others. GOD recently gave me a message to ask for help so I did by setting up www.gofundme.com/help-jdogg-save-his-condo-and-more and I have had a few people make donations. I am grateful to all that have come through in the last 8 1/2 months and have helped me in my time of need. I am working on turning things around. I have continued to assume an attitude of gratitude while realizing that if GOD brought me to it GOD will bring me through it. GOD will send blessings and messages and it is important to take action and detach from the outcomes. I have found that GOD is with you and wants a relationship with you.
It is knowing that through good times and bad times that GOD is with you and all you have to do is stay connected so as to make a mind, body, and soul connection. In accepting that GOD’S Plan is far greater than the one you have for yourself you will begin to receive blessings and as a result your life will be filled with much peace, love, joy, and prosperity. GOD will bring you through storms and create rainbows filled with hope and healing in your life.
As you are facing storms of your own take solace in knowing that GOD will bring your through it and make you stronger. Namaste!!!
When one is passionate and spiritually awake they are able to take action and continue to be of service and value to others. Over the years as I continue on my spiritual journey I have become a man with a collection bucket and a message. As a man with a bucket and a message I have been able to help those touched by cancer by raising funds for research, education, advocacy, and services. I have been delivering a message that GOD Loves A Cheerful Giver and that when you give you open channels to receive. I have encountered some very positive people who joyfully give and I have experienced some negativity as many people just simply don’t know the facts and haven’t researched the organization enough and simply go by what they hear never getting to know the truth. I have heard so many times that most of the money goes to administrative costs which is not true as only 4% of all money goes to administrative costs leaving 96% to fund research, education, advocacy, and services. I have hear oh there are cures out there and there are several treatments that will arrest the cancer and slow its progress and lessen the chance of occurrence. The inroads being made to decrease the risk of cancer is amazing. I recommend people visit www.cancer.org and get the facts before judging the work that I am doing as I fundraise. I have come to understand that there are some who will, some who won’t, some waiting, so what, next as not everyone is going to resonate with my message.
I decided to write about Relay For Life Today (3/11/19) as my participation has helped me to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually. I have been able to tap into my talents and use them for good. As a result I have seen the many programs of The American Cancer Society and the benefits for cancer patients, their families, and their friends. I have been able to plant the seeds of hope and healing and as a result remove blockages that may have been holding me back from moving forward in a positive direction of some of my goals. In my 21 years of involvement I have seen how many lives are being touched through Relay For Life. There have been some set backs, challenges, and hardships along the way however each time a challenge arose I was able to realize that if GOD brought me to it GOD was going to bring me through it.
When I attend Relay for Life Events I feel a sense of purpose and many times I think I was born for this. As I look back over the 21 years of being involved I can say that the positives outweigh the negatives and many times my involvement in Relay has helped me to overcome personal adversity.
There are two great days in your life the day you are born and the day your figure out why. I have found my why and it has made the world of difference in attract peace, love, joy, and prosperity into my life. I wish you much success as you pick up your own bucket and spread your message. Namaste!!!
As I sat down to write this entry today(2/13/2019) I started to think how many times I have felt that I am out here on my own and how it is up to me to embrace the spiritual awakening process and to stand on my own. As I reflected on this I realized that I was not really on my own as I had many guides with me helping me to walk in my truth thus creating personal, professional, and spiritual growth. It was as I sat in reflection that I was reassured that if GOD brought you to it GOD was going to bring you though it. The message that I received today was to walk in your truth and when needed stand on your own knowing that GOD has your back. It was in that moment that I understood that sometime you will simply have to stand alone and stand in your truth. In standing alone and being guided by The Ascended Masters, GOD, Jesus, and The Angels you will see that though you feel alone you really are supported. Sometimes it is just a matter of realizing that you were born for the this and sometimes you have to go where you are not invited.
On Friday 2/8/2019 I went to The Tunes and Trucks Event in The City Of Sunrise, FL to collect donations for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life. I went uninvited and was standing alone as someone dedicated to helping those touched by cancer. I began to collect and then went to the stage to ask if I could make an announcement about what I was doing. The stage manager told me he would have to check. He did and a few moment later I was introduced and I made my announcement and The Mayor and the City Commissioners put money in the collection bucket. I then walked the crowd. Most people were receptive and $432 was collected to help create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. I turned in that money today and I know sit at $2476 raised to fund research, education, advocacy, and services. In my 21 years as a volunteer with The American Cancer Society I have come to understand that sometimes you simply have to stand alone walking in your truth so that those meant to join you in your quest will appear. I have come to realize that when you are being of service and value to others you will encounter doubters, haters, and naysayers. I have come to learn that when you encounter these people to simply walk away and stand alone knowing that you are doing what GOD has intended for you to do as you grow personally, professionally, and spiritually. Now is the time to be true to yourself and stand alone.
When you sit or stand in your sacred space remind yourself to be true to yourself. In being true to yourself you will experience a gamut of emotions and remind yourself it is okay to cry and to laugh as this will help to clear the blockages that may be stopping you from walking in your truth. Sometimes you simply have to put what others think out of the equation and to simply stand in your truth and find your purpose. Namaste!!!
As you embrace the spiritual awakening process it is important to be able break free from that which no longer serves you. It is important to break free from the belief systems that are creating blockages in your life by making a commitment to change your mindset and thus breaking free from that which is stopping you from stepping into your power and achieving the greatness that is your birthright.
Walk in your truth and embrace your power!!!
When you decide to break free and understand that you are one that can remove the shackles that are holding you back you will start to attract more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. When you embrace the fact that you were born free and the only person that can take away your freedom you will find it it easier to rid yourself of the accouterments that have been holding you back over time. It is time to change your mindset and understand that it is not about the materialistic but rather the spiritualistic. Do not misinterpret this as being anti money as with money you can do many things and be of service and value to many people however the greatest gift you can give someone is a helping hand not a hand out. In breaking free from the belief that you need a big house, a fancy car, and expensive clothes to be considered successful you will find that you are able to attract everything you need so that you can positively impact your life and the lives of others.
Be The One Who Stays Positive In The Face Of Adversity!!!
As you break free from that which has kept you in mental bondage you will see that you begin to attract more bliss and abundance into your life for you stop thinking about what you do not have but you are grateful for what you do have. In the last few months I have found myself breaking away from that which is not serving a higher purpose and as a result I have been blessed with support from people who share my same ideals especially those who believe that service to humanity is the best work of life. In looking at what I was allowing to hold me back and make changes to break free I realized that it was time to tap into my divine guidance system and reconnect with GOD and remember that if GOD brought me to it GOD will bring me through it. I have also come to realize that my methods of doing things may not resonate with everyone and that is okay for those that are intended to hear my message and support my endeavors will be brought forth to me for GOD’S Plan is far greater than my own. It is important to realize that we are dancing on GOD’S Dance Floor and GOD makes the playlist.
When we let go and let GOD we are able to break free from any barriers that we perceive to be holding us back. Sometimes it is as simple as taking massive action and moving forward in the direction of our goals allowing GOD to direct us. Sometimes it is simply a matter of letting go of the people, places, and things that no longer serve us. As I sat in meditation I realized that I was holding on to some ideas that were ego driven and thus they were edging GOD out so it was time to break free from those beliefs and to simple stay connected to GOD and understand that GOD will provide all that I need so that I can continue to be of service and value to others.
Now is the time to break free and praise GOD who will continue to guide you and allow you to evolve personally, professionally, and spiritually. Watch what you are focusing on as what you focus on expands. Watch the words you are using so that you can break break free. It is time to speak life and remain on your spiritual journey despite what others may think. You will encounter many people who simply will not understand that everyday you are changing and becoming stronger in mind, body, and spirit thus allowing you to break free. When you encounter these people don’t try to defend your actions simply stand in your truth and continue to walk your path showing them that you are making a better life for yourself and others.
The words we choose to use will determine how free we become. When we can turn off the negativity and break free we can move in a positive direction shining our light bright so we illuminate the world. Our words become actions and our actions can empower and inspire others. It is your time to become stronger.
As you break free from that which no longer serves you you will find that you are getting stronger and that things will improve. In the darkest of times things seem dim but then there comes a light to lift you up and thus the darkness dissipates and the light takes over allowing you to break free. Now is your season to break free!!! Namaste!!!
As we travel along our spiritual path there comes a time to walk away from that which no longer serves us. I have come to understand that not everyone is going to be receptive or open to your ideas as they don’t resonate with them. I have come to realize that it is not worth trying to get those that do not resonate with you to come around to your thinking because it will be like wrestling a pig in the mud and you are both going to get dirty however the pig is going to enjoy it. As I a result I have come to the conclusion that it is better to stay clean and simply walk away. In walking away from what no longer serves you new channels are open that will allow you to evolve personally, spiritually, and professionally. In realizing that not everyone is going to buy into your ideas I have been able to move forward and find peace, love, joy, and prosperity in my life. On several occasions I have given people ideas to be told we are not going to do that only to see my idea implemented a few years later with much success. It is funny how you can come up with a concept implement it after it was spoken negatively by others and then see those same people doing what you suggested years ago. I have learned to walk away and do what I intended to do detaching from outcomes thus allowing me to build on my successes and learn from my setbacks. I have learned that there is a season for everything and there is a time to stay and a time to walk away. The stories I can tell you about walking away are numerous how ever each time I have walked away and decided to let go and let GOD my life has improved. I have come to believe that if GOD brought you to it GOD will bring you through it. If you tune into your inner divinity and internalize the messages sent from above you will be able to walk away from that which no longer serves you. Sometimes it means severing ties that have been built over 20 years. It is difficult at first as you hanker to hold on but then you understand that in order to evolve personally, professionally, and spiritually you must let go. Our seasons turn and we become more purposeful when we walk away from that which no longer serves us.
There is a time to stay and a time to walk away. You will be able to decide on what to do as you grow personally, professionally, and spiritually gaining discernment as you detach from the outcomes and understand that GOD’S plans for you are bigger than your own. When GOD gives you signals to walk away you simply need to heed that advice and allow GOD to lead you to the next step along your path toward enlightenment. It is through staying connected to GOD that you will become an overcomer.
In life we will experience many challenges and many adversities as we tap into our spirituality and decide to show our authentic self by walking in our truth for many people that we encounter will not understand us. I have found that when you start talking spirituality that you may encounter people that just don’t have a grasp on why they are here and many will be naysayers, doubters, and haters. When you encounter any negativity that is stopping you from moving forward simply take a deep breath and walk away. It is up to you to walk in your truth knowing you did it your way because at the end of the day all that matters is if you can answer yes to these two questions Did I live life in joy today? Did I bring joy to others today?
As you walk away knowing you did it your way lead by GOD you will have knowledge that you lived a fulfilled life. Sometimes you simply need to step out of the box and walk away and do things your way so that you can continue to move forward in a positive direction of your dreams. Namaste!!!
As I went to vote I decided that since I did not like either candidate for Governor that I would write myself in because I am a warrior with a mission to be of service and value to others. As I left my polling place I started to think about how many times one must vote themselves in so as to progress in a positive direction towards their goals as they evolve in the spiritual awakening process. Sometimes you have to go uninvited and stand out so that you can grow personally, professionally, and spiritually understanding that you were born to prosper by helping others. I have used the mantra that service to humanity is the best work of life for several years now and when no one else would step up to the plate I often stepped up voting myself in and thus leading the way to positively impact the lives of others. Sometimes you simply have to vote yourself in and then allow GOD to guide you so that you will prosper. I remember back in 1989 my Jaycees chapter was about to cancel The Holiday Shopping Spree for Needy Children as there were very little funds in the treasury. As a new member I suggested we approach businesses to see if they would sponsor a child for $50. I was told we never did that before I asked why not and was told because we just didn’t. My answer was let’s start now. They answered you can do that if you want to but we aren’t going to do that. Guess what I did I started calling people I did business with and asked for their support then I called on businesses that were prominent in the community and asked for their assistance. Two weeks later at a chapter meeting I came in to the meeting with over $3000 in donations. That year we took 64 children holiday shopping. It was at that moment that I realized to whom much is given much is expected. In the years since I have found myself voting myself in when others would not step up. As a result I have experienced personal, professional, and spiritual growth. It is when you vote yourself and commit to making a positive impact on the lives of people you come in contact with that you begin to attract peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. Sometimes it is just simply reminding yourself that you were born for this.
Now is the time for you to vote yourself in as you are a powerful person destined to make a difference in your life and in the lives of others. It is time to find your purpose and to live that purpose so that you can receive the bliss and abundance that comes from voting yourself in. It is when you step up and take action that you achieve the greatness that is your birth right. It is when you step into your power and vote yourself in and become an action taker that you begin to evolve spiritually thus moving toward spiritual enlightenment. Sometimes it is just a matter of stepping in when no one else will.
It is your life and it is time to vote yourself in. It is time for you to realize that you area divine child of GOD and GOD wants you to be successful. It is time to live each day to its fullest so that at the end of the day you can say yes I lived my day in joy and I brought joy to others. It is time to understand that it is not about securing materialistic things but it is about growing spiritually and leaving a legacy of hope and healing for future generations. It is your season to serve and to be served so vote yourself in and stay positive.
As you continue on your spiritual journey you will begin to awaken and become more and more aware as you are living in GOD’S Changing Room. As you begin to truly hear the messages from GOD, Jesus, The Angels, and The Ascended Masters you will be moved to action thus experiencing many changes as you continue to live in GOD’S Changing Room. It is said that when two or more are gathered GOD is there so we do not need big edifices costing millions of dollars to pray instead we can use that money to be of service and value to others. In GOD’S Changing Room there are always opportunities to improve your personal, professional, and spiritual life you just have to be tuned into your inner divinity and ready to receive GOD’S Guidance. In realizing that if GOD brought you to it GOD will bring you through you can begin to make changes that will assist you in bringing peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. Sometimes it is subtle changes you make like deciding to project a more professional image understanding that when you look good and feel good you will be able to do good. In GOD’S Changing Room there is no judgement as everyone is a divine child of GOD and GOD wants those in GOD’S Changing Room to be successful. As you begin to allow GOD to mold you and change you your life will see an improvement. In many cases in GOD’S Changing Room you will have people and things taken from you as a lesson to appreciate what you do have. In GOD’S Changing Room you will find yourself coming alive by serving the community and following your dreams while detaching from outcomes. In GOD’S Changing Room you will find yourself moving from negative emotions to positive emotions thus allowing you to manifest the life that you desire. As you continue to experience change it is important to face everything and rise. There will be some setbacks along the way however what may seem like a set back is actually a set up for the better things that GOD has in store for you.
