As I was seeking what to write about today I found this song and it really struck a chord as I have learned that GOD provides and it is when you listen to his messages that he delivers that you truly find your way and your purpose. I have come to learn that everything happens for a reason. A big example of this was yesterday when my car needed 2 tires and an oil change. Money has been tight for me as I continue to secure clients and projects and seek full time work, the bill came to about $220 and I was able to pay for it and then the answer to my question of where will the money cone from to replace the money I spent it dawned on me that I had $250 coming from an investment I had a few years ago, so the way was provided by GOD. Prior to replacing teh tires I prayed and asked GOD to get me to Boca Raton, FL safe so I could drop off te money I had collected for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of West Boca Raton. All the way to Boca I was worried about the tire exploding. The tire didn’t explode I made it to Boca Raton safely, dropped of the money, and made it to The Good Year Store and the car was fixed. While the car was being fixed I followed the message to go an collect donations for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton. In 2 hours I colledted $28. Despite the rain and some challenges I was successful.
As I walked back to pick up my car I began to sing and the words were Walking With Jesus Daily. From what I recall my signing went something like this. Feeling AloneI turn to you and you are there walking with Jesus daily, singing in gratitude and joy freely, alone no more, giving more, walking with Jesus daily, watching over me giving peace, love, and happiness creating bliss walking with Jesus daily. After singing this out and giving praise to GOD I saw a shift in my attitude and the attitudes of thoseI dealt with the through out the remainder of the day. As I was stuck in traffic I turned to Reach FM and was filled with the joy of music and praise and upon arriving home I thanked Jesus for providing the way.
As I continue to walk in faith i find good things happening. Yes their are struggles financially, however knowing that GOD will make a way makes it less burdensome. GOD is within all of us and when we get in touch with out divinty we begin to receive better outcomes. We have choices to go with GOD and let things unfold for us by taking action to praise GOD and shine our light by lifting others up in prayer and being of service and value or to question GOD and wondering why things are happening the way they are. God always makes a way sometimes the road is tough and fraught with challenges because GOD will make a test into a testimony. Some times the road is easier as GOD wants to prosper and reward you.

Spiritual Awakening: The Final Statement of GOD Making A Way
remember you have friend in Jesus and he will make a way. Until next time STAY POSITIVE.
Thin Lizzy’s song Dancing In The Moonlight is a great lesson to sometimes break the rules & dance in the moonlight. By being an action taker and puuting yourself on a spiritual path you are going against the norms of society to allow the moonlight to shine on you and give you the energy to being a shining light to others. Think about ways you are breaking the boundries that may have held you back in the past and how going against expectations and being your authentic self is creating a more joyous experience in all you do. When you make that decision to dance in the moonlight their will be pain as some may not understand what you are seeking or why you are doing what you do. The best you can do is leave those people behind. It is a difficult decision because your initial feeling may be I have so much invested in this friendship or relationship, howver it is when you detach yourself and make the conscience decision to move on and pursue your moonlight that you will find the greatness inside of you that the world will see.
Last night (6/3//12) I had the opportunity to witness as the emcee for this event people who decided to dance in the moonlight. The performers were amazing and inspirational. I was able to feel the positive energy in the room and be inspired by the Cancer Survivors. It was amazing to see people come together and work as one so as to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. I would like to ask everyone to take a moment and dance in the moonlight while visiting http://main.acsevents.org/goto/acbd so as to help those affected by cancer dance in the moonlight.
As I was getting ready to write this blog I closed my eyes and inhaled the incense and asked source what I should write about and source answered with this headline. I am alsways amazed how when I burn my incense and close everything else off that answers to my questions appear. When I tell people about the practice of buring incense many of those not on a spiritual path scoff. I take a breathe and intrnally say to myself they don’t know what they are missing. I often will draw a hot bath, light some candles, put on a mediation cd, like the one I have from Sonia Alexandra, burn the incense and clear my mind to get grounded. I also like to do this ritual using a cd my mother gave me of tribual and natural sounds. I have also found that listening to instrumentals, tribal chants, sounds of nature will asssit with gaining insight thus contiuning on a spirtual path to personal growth and enlightenment.
There have been times when I will go to the big pool at The Sunrise Lakes Phase III Clubhouse and make a small quiet peaceful area for myself with the incense buring while I read books like Ernest Chu’s Soul Currency, Amy Hammond Hagberg’s How Do You Know He is Real, Guy Finley’s The Seeker, The Search, The Sacred, and others that are now in my library for spiritual growth.
When I awake I wonder what will excite me and turn me on today? This brought me to ponder what is it that is turning you on? Is it the site of a beautiful sunrise out of your window? Is the fact that you were granted another day to celebrate life and make a psoitive impact on the world? Is it that you anticipate someone whose life you can enrich? What is it that turns you on?
Once you find the thing that turns you on and excites you make a plan to stay excitted and passionate about that use it as fuel to drive you towards your goals and objectives.
