Spiritual Awakening: Joy To The World!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Joy To The World!!!!

 When I awakened spiritually I knew that there would be certain anthems that would propel me to take action to move in the positive direction of my dreams. This song has always been one of my favorites for Christmas. As I discovered my calling I realized that if I wanted things to change around me that I had to change the ways I did things and how I reacted to things. As I began to come alive due to this spiritual awakening I began to understand why GOD had directed to do all the community service that I did and continue to do. Through my spiritual awakening I made a commitment to spread joy to others. In order to spread joy to others I had to find the joy in me. Even through the loss of my mother on July 5, 2012 I was able to find joy and comfort knowing that she may be gone from the physical realm but I can communicate with her in the spiritual realm and that she will always be with me. My mom loved Christmas and went out of her way to make sure that our family was always together and that we always did something to spread joy to the world.  When my Mom was alive she would always attend The Jaycees Christmas Shopping Spree for Needy Children and I would always make sure she had a young girl to shop with as she really wanted a daughter. One year I mentioned to my mom that I was going over to pick up a food donation and she handed me $ 50 and said buy extra with this and I did. Those memories of that time together and other time spent  during the holidays motivate me today to carry on by being of service and value to others so as to bring joy to the world.

 When we spread joy to the world and give the glory to GOD great things begin to happen for us. I often quote ” All Things Are Possible Through Christ Who Strengthens Me,” and have found that by following a spiritual path I have more joy in my life. In the past I would focus on those things that were negative and ask why now I focus on the positive and the joy and give praise and thanks.  It is when you make a conscious decision to be joyful that you begin to understand and fulfill your purpose.

Spiritual Awakening: It’s Beginning To Feel Like Christmas!!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: It’s Beginning To Feel  Like Christmas!

As I ventured out on Friday (12/13/13) to do my Christmas Shopping I felt another spiritual awakening come over me. It was an awakening that Christmas can be an everyday occurrence as we all have the ability to give a gift. It doesn’t have to be a monetary gift or a material gift it can be a gift of spirit, a kind word, a random act of kindness, a smile, or just letting someone go ahead of you in line.  It is when we adopt the anthem to take action and come from a place of kindness and love that our spiritual channels are open up and thus we receive gifts that enhance our personal and professional life because we took the time to enhance the personal and professional lives of others.

 As I strolled through The Forest of Angels Project at The Promenade at Coconut Creek I experienced another spiritual awakening as I witnessed 22 Christmas Trees decorated by sponsors who designated a charity for their Christmas Tree to represent as this project gives money to the top 3 trees who garner the most votes. To vote on a tree you make a donation of at least $1 and place the number of the Christmas Tree you like on the ballot you receive ( a raffle ticket) you vote and then place your ticket in the chance drawing box of the prize you would like to win. My awakening was that more people are doing good than bad and we need to capitalize on the feeling and spirit of Christmas and make it a daily practice. maybe not with trees or lights or presents but with actions that will show people that they are divine creatures of GOD with a purpose and thus everyday it can feel like Christmas.

Spiritual Awakening: Taking Goodness To The Limit!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Taking Goodness To The Limit!!!

 

 As I was reading through my Facebook feed today I saw many great posts about the goodness people are doing to help others in their respective communities. I began to think what if we could capture this spirit of goodness and make it last all through the new year? What if we could all experience a spiritual awakening and recognize that we are all interconnected and because of that inter-connectivity we have a responsible to take action to help others in our community. I remember watching the Bill Murray movie, Scrogged, and the final scene where he speaks about miracles happening and thinking what if we could push this idea of goodness to the limit. I remember watching Jim Carey in Bruce Almighty and the scene of him with Morgan Freeman’s character, GOD, and GOD explaining what a real hero was and thinking about how true his statements were about everyday people doing extraordinary things.

 When you have a spiritual awakening you begin to understand your calling and your purpose and you find ways to push it to the limit. many things in your personal and professional life begin to change. You start to come alive and you find a sense of giving that leads to serving the community and thus taking goodness to the limit!!! In math we talk about approaching limits understanding you never reach the limit because the limit doesn’t exist. This is also true in life as there is no limit to the goodness you can do. You are capable of so much more than you think.  Many times prior to a spiritual awakening we find ourselves limiting ourselves because we buy into the negative self talk and the naysayers. It is when we dismiss the negative self talk and tell the naysayers to pound sand that we begin to push the limits of our goodness. How many times have you not pursued something because of what someone else said? If you find yourself around doubters and negative energy take a step back detach yourself from the situation and commit to moving forward to push the limit of your goodness because you are capable of much more than you think you are.  So many time we allow limiting beliefs to hold us back because of an underlying fear of moving forward and thus we never manifest our dreams. I am reminded of the scene from the movie, Accepted, when Bartlebee asks the board that is about to decide the fate of his college what they wanted to be when they were growing up and what they ended up settling for.  How many times have you settled instead of pushing the limits of your goodness?

Spiritual Awakening: Repeat After Me!!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Repeat After Me!!!!!

As I was flipping through the channels the other day I came across the classic film, Animal House, and the scene where the pledges are being sworn in and the leader says repeat after me I (and state your name) pledge allegiance to the frat…. I started to think about spiritual awakening  and the role that repetition plays in our spiritual awakening.  I started to think how repeating affirmations like I am a strong caring person who puts smiles on people’s faces and cash in the right places affect us as we experience this spiritual awakening. It is when we take actions that bring positivity and love into our lives as we experience this spiritual awakening that we begin to grow personally and professionally. In repeating these action we begin to open up channels that create joy, peace, love, and prosperity in our lives and in the lives of others. We begin to experience a spiritual awakening that allows us to find the positive even in what many consider a negative situation such as losing a  friend or loved one. By repeating spiritual practices daily we begin to further understand our calling and to change things that will allow us to come alive and be of better service and value to community.

Spiritual Awakening: Repeating Numbers And Their Meanings!!!!

Many times I look around me and I see repeating numbers and I wonder what they mean. ON our journey of spiritual awakening we will see many repeating numbers and it is important to understand what they mean. When we see 11:11 it means to make a wish and allow that wish to manifest itself. Remember to be specific with your wish and ask that it be granted in a joyful and peaceful way.

Spiritual Awakening: Taking The First Step!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Taking The First Step!!!

 Have you ever been around a parent when their child takes their first step? The euphoria they express is amazing, the positive energy it puts out into the universe sends shock waves of positivity up and down the spine of all that have witnessed this milestone. That joyous occasion is very similar to the first step someone has when they experience a spiritual awakening.  The energy shift that you have when you experience a spiritual awakening is incredible as you begin to shift and become a better person. The connection of mind body and spirit is strengthened through the first step of spiritual awakening.  The first step is to understand that their is a GOD that is guiding you and who wants you to experience prosperity. It is through the building of the relationship with GOD that you open up the GOD inside of you and began to experience The Oneness Conscience that allows you to expand by embracing your inner divinity. It is when you become an action taker and awakening spirituality with the recognition that you are a divine child of GOD with a purpose that your journey toward spiritual enlightenment begins. It is by answering your calling that you can affect change in your personal and professional life thus coming alive and shining your light bright to inspire and empower others.

Spiritual Awakening: Ways To Take The First Step!!!!

 Through meditation and understanding that we are made up of energy and that this energy flows into us and out of us and affects our personal and professional lives allows us to take that first step in recognizing our own divinity.

Putting a spirit of positivity into our heart and releasing this fire to the universe will assist you in taking the first step.

Spiritual Awakening: Busting Out OF Black Friday!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Busting Out OF Black Friday!!!

 Did you fall for the hype of Black Friday or were you like the many that have had a spiritual awakening and busted out of Black Friday? I chose to bust out on Black Friday and take massive action and invest in myself by becoming a Rejuvenetics Distributor, my page is at www.rejuvenetics.net/jdogg1 where people can purchase products that will help them to look good, feel good, so they can do good. I decided that being healthy was more important than the 32″ Plasma TV that was on sale. I decided to bust out and learn about the products and spend my money on me as I know an investment in myself is more important than investments in materialistic things. After all the happiness we seek is found inside ourselves. In committing to being healthy and becoming an action taker we begin to get ourselves balanced, centered, and grounded thus allowing us to summon our inner divinity and creating our own happiness.  In awakening and busting out on Black Friday I have been able to further my calling and create a positive change in my life and in the lives of others. In making a decision to take massive action I have continued to come alive and serve others while enhancing my community. Imagine being able to show people that service to humanity is the best work of life and showing them how to live a healthy life  by educating them with information that traditional doctors don’t tell them.

 In busting out on Black Friday and deciding not to focus on the lack mentality that it promotes I have been able to accomplish many of my daily goals. I was able to get centered and grounded, start my new business venture, write my blog entries, send out media releases and further my journey of spiritual awakening. In being spiritually awake and aware we are able to choose to bust out of Black Friday and appreciate the abundance that we all have. In becoming spiritually awake and a ware we begin to understand that we do not have to do what the masses do we can be our own person and follow the messages from GOD. IN busting out of Black Friday we are able to do more to glorify GOD and thus be rewarded. A new car, or anew TV, or material things will not honor or glorify GOD, however being of service to others will. So in busting out of Black Friday we can all become more in tune with our own divinity while recognizing the divinity in others.

Spiritual Awakening: Celebrating Thanksgiving Daily!!!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Celebrating Thanksgiving Daily!!!

 Once one has a spiritual awakening and they begin their path to enlightenment they realize that a great part of becoming an action taker is to assume an attitude of gratitude. In creating a daily ritual of giving thanks one creates a vibration that attract the proper people into their circle of influence thus furthering the spiritual awakening process. In creating a daily anthem of gratitude and using word like thank you the tasks of the day flow easier and your vibrational level increases allowing for healing to occur. Gratitude is like the small stone skipped across the water that creates little ripples that become waves and thus shifts energy into a field of positivity and possibilities.  In answering your calling and being grateful for what you do have you will see a major shift or change in your personal and professional life allowing you to come alive and share your divinity with others thus lighting up the entire universe. Thanksgiving may be one day in the calendar year that brings a community together however imagine if you made Thanksgiving a ritual in your everyday life. I am not talking about eating all the fixings that go with the holiday but just taking time to thank GOD for all that he is providing for you. I have come to understand that many times it is our gratitude that determines our altitude. In dealing with all the emotions that come from celebrating Thanksgiving we come to realize that gratitude can be a great tool to helping in furthering our spiritual path and thus creating feelings that attract all that we need to find peace, love, and happiness in our lives.

 This year is the second year without my mother, Judith Miller, who GOD called home on July 5, 2012. The tradition in our family was always to get together regardless of where we all were at the time. There were trips to Williamsburg, Virginia and gatherings at my mom’s house in Coral Springs, FL.  Mom always went out of her way to make the day special for everyone from her special sweet potato pie for me to the cheese cake for my brothers moms love filled the air. I am grateful everyday for the time GOD gave me with my mother. I take solace in the fact that she is now an angel watching over me and providing positive messages of guidance. Though there are many empty chairs at the table this year I know that all those who GOD called home are looking down on me and guiding me with peace, love, and happiness.  I will celebrate everyday for the things I have and show gratitude for all those who have shaped me and molded me.  The fact of life is that we should celebrate  Thanksgiving daily by showing appreciation for what we have and for what GOD continues to deliver to us and for us.

Spiritual Awakening: Using The N Word!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Using The N Word!!!!

 

Where did your mind take you when you saw this headline. As part of my spiritual awakening  it took me to spiritual words starting with N such as Namaste. In a previous entry I spoke about Namaste For Everyone and incorporating this N Word into everyday practices to enhance your personal and professional life. I have used this N Word to stop many disagreements that people have had with me due to issues on both sides of the fence.

 As I looked at this child I began to think wouldn’t it be great if people were more in tune with their divinity and began to shine their divine light bright for the world to see and shared the N Word Namaste. Imagine a movement where those who have had a spiritual awakening and are on a path to spiritual enlightenment took action and started hosting NAMASTE Days in their community. If we get out from behind the computer and out into the community and begin to use Namaste as a daily greeting we can make a positive shift in the community. Instead of The Knock Out Game people should play the NAMASTE Game. Instead of arguing and point fingers we should recognize that we are all divine children of GOD and that each person has a talent to bring into the world. Instead of wanting what we don’t have we can be grateful in what we do have and share our blessings with others. If  we begin each day with a greeting of Namaste and end each day with the salutation of Namaste our world will become a better place. Make Namaste one of your anthems daily &  watch what happens.

Spiritual Awakening: Letting Your Greatness Shine!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Letting Your Greatness Shine!!!

 Today’s blog entry was inspired by The Gallaudet University Football Team. Gallaudet University is a university specifically for the deaf and hearing impaired. I first learned of Gallaudet a few years ago when my cousin who is hearing impaired came to visit and she shred with me that Gallaudet has a football program. I was fascinated by the way they sent in the signals. I was so intrigued that I started to follow the team. Today (12/23/13) for the 1st time in the football program’s history they are playing in The Division III Playoffs against Hobart University. These 54 players and coaches inspired me to let my greatness shine and I hope that this entry will encourage you to continue on the path of spiritual awakening and let your greatness shine. may the Gallaudet Bison continue to inspire others to shine bright.

 When I think of greatness I think of Muhamed Ali as he is known as The Greatest. Ali had a certain way of carrying himself that exuded confidence.  Ali also had a very spiritual side to him. he changed his given name of Cascius Clay to Muhamed Ali and he stood up for his beliefs. He was so strong in his conviction that he refused to serve his country in Vietnam.  Many people did not like this decision and it cost Ali many years as he was not allowed to box. he kept his faith and his boxing license was restored and he went on to win the Heavyweight Title on many occasions. Ali was a person who was awakened and enlightened spiritually.  He serves as an example to all to stand their ground and be divinely guided with your decisions. Despite having Parkinson’s Disease he continues to make appearances and inspire others to let their greatness shine.

  It was 50 years ago when  John Fitzgerald Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. I was not born yet, however I studied Kennedy in school and when applying to colleges in 1983 American University asked as one of  its essay questions, what day in history would you change and why. I chose 11/22/1963 because Kennedy was starting to bring our country together and helping people to have a spiritual awakening. Kennedy being the first Roman Catholic elected to the highest office in The United States Kennedy show many what having a strong faith can do for you. Kennedy also gave people permission to allow their greatness to shine bright as he encouraged people to look a t what they could do for their country. Kennedy also started The U.S. peace Corps in an effort to improve diplomatic relations with other countries. As a Returned U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer I can tell you that serving in The Philippines from July 2002 – February 2003 helped to develop a spiritual foundation that has allowed me to make positive changes in my life.  It is using Kennedy’s example and answering the question of how can I be of service and value that we are able to find our calling and come alive. In coming alive we give others permission to let their greatness shine.

Spiritual Awakening: How To Make A Fresh Start!!!

Spiritual Awakening: How To Make A Fresh Start!!!

 In standing or sitting in meditation or prayer after a spiritual awakening many seek to make a fresh start. I am asked many times JDOGG how do I make a fresh start?  The first thing I state is that to change you must be open to receive  and embrace the changes. In being open to receive you are showing the universe that you are truly ready to make a new start. After you commit to being ready to receive the next step is to look at  the person you wish to be and how this fits into you being authentic. You must be honest with yourself and accept that all positives and negatives in your life have been caused by you and the way you chose to deal with them. When you become an action taker and are truly committed to taking the steps necessary to make yourself better you will see positive changes. You will see that you are attracting different people into your life because you embrace the opportunity to start fresh.  Many of our behaviors have been learned over time and it will take some time to eliminate those that do not serve us in a positive light. In many cases we may seek to change our circle of influence, if we are hanging with people who have a lack mentality than we must move away from them toward those who have an abundance mentality. If we find out we are the smartest person in the room  we need to change rooms. In awakening to who we are and finding our purpose we can change what we have done in the past and make the changes to find success in the moment.

 Think of your life in the terms of a tree. A seed is planted and the seed is nurtured and  it grows strong, however in the Fall and Winter the tree transitions and goes dormant and then in the Spring and Summer it awakens and sprouts leaves and provides joy to many. In Ecclesiastes it is taught that to every season there is a purpose under heaven. It is in nurturing the seeds inside of us that we grow like a tree and find our purpose. Eventually the tree may be cut down and used in a different way. When we are eventually cut down our message lives on in the lives of those we have touched. Ask yourself ho do I want to be remembered and begin to work toward leaving that legacy.

  For many starting fresh means making a connection with source,  creating a relationship with nature, and being loving in all they do. I have found many times that when you are willing to turn the page and forgive yourself and others and be loving in all you do that you begin to see things differently and thus you move forward in a positive direction of your goals and dreams.
