What is it that you feel you're lacking in your life right now that's blocking you from experiencing true joy and deep inner fulfillment? Did you know that instead of sitting around feeling hopeless thinking you're waiting on God it's actually the other way around? God is the one actually waiting on you. Anything and everything good you could ever want or need in this life has already been put in place for you by God before you were ever fully conceived in your mother's womb.
God already knew all you would need and desire to make it through this life. All the good He had planned for you when you were just an idea in His divine mind to create has already been done for you. Now all He's waiting on is for you to ask Him for that which is already yours for the taking. All He asked of you in order to receive your divine inheritance is put and keep Him first in your life. "But seek first the Kingdom of God and it's righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." (Matthew 6:33 Lamsa's Aramaic Translation) The kingdom of heaven is already at your hands. So what are you waiting for to claim it?
Rather your current need or desire is for better health, harmonious relationships, attracting your divine-right mate, a new job or career breakthrough, more money and financial increase. Use the power of your imagination today to see your hearts desires coming forth to you now in golden streams of good and plenty. Open your minds eye to see the avalanche's of abundance that's already yours by divine right given by God in endless supply. Then give thanks for the manifestation of your good now. Ask God...Trust God...And Expect His Blessings! ~ Until next time...I surround you in love & light beloved...Peace!

Mind Control: You Hold The Power of Your Thoughts
In the highly acclaimed bestselling inspirational book, "As A Man Thinketh", author James Allen wrote, "The human mind is likened to a garden, which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild. But whether cultivated or neglected, it must and will bring forth." In essence, this means rather we are conscious of it our not our thoughts have power. Yet, we are not powerless slaves to our minds. God has empowered each of us with dominion over our thoughts and the power to control what we think.
Rather we choose to use this God given empowerment to control our thoughts or allow our thoughts to control us is a decision we each make respectively. After all, God also granted us the power of free will. In either case, the thoughts we hold in our minds causes a chain reaction. What we focus on the most with intensity will eventually manifest resulting in a direct effect on our individual circumstances and experiences. With that understanding it's clear to see that it's in our best interest to become more conscious of the thoughts we hold about ourselves and others in our lives.
So, how are you using your mind power today? Are you cultivating and controlling your thoughts aligning them with the power of your imagination to see the highest good in all things for yourself and others? Do you take heed to the instructions of scripture that tells us in Philippians 4:8, "Whatever is true, whatever is honest, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good report; if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, think about these things."(Lamsa's Aramaic Translation)
Are you using the power of your thoughts to stay focused on the positive despite what's going on around you? Do you fill your mind daily with reading material that helps you remember the Truth that God is your source, supply and infinite supplier? Are you standing on your faith in Gods promise to never leave or forsake those who belong to Him and trust in Him? Do you use your thoughts to affirm that regardless of how hopeless or discouraging your circumstances appear to be, God is your help in EVERY need?
Or are you going through life allowing your outer circumstances to control you by letting your thoughts run rampant like wild weeds in a field of negativity, worry, hopelessness and despair? If this latter question sounds like you know that it does your relationship with yourself a huge disservice and your relationship with God a dishonor to live life that way. As the saying goes, "if you gone' pray why worry and if you gone' worry why pray".
On the other hand, if you've been struggling through life on your own without having a relationship with God I encourage you to start one today. Contrary to popular belief or opinion, it's actually very simple to begin. You can start by going before Him in prayer with a humbled spirit and open heart. Then simply say, "Dear God, I'm tired of trying to figure life out on my own and cannot do this alone. I realize now that your ways are higher than my ways and your thoughts are higher than my thoughts. I need your help and guidance. Please come into my heart God. Show me your ways and I will make you my Lord and savior." It's that easy!!!
In closing, rather you already have a strong relationship with God or not I leave you with a few positive affirmations. If practiced regularly they will help you better cultivate your mind and control your thoughts in a constructive manner. Just take five to ten minutes to sit still and light your favorite scented candle if you like. If you prefer just silence with no candle that's fine too. Next, close your eyes and repeat each of the following affirmations three times.
1.) Infinite Spirit I'm open to you for guidance, come sit at the seat of my soul.
2.) Infinite Spirit I'm open to you for understanding, come sit at the seat of my heart.
3.) Infinite Spirit I open my mind to you for wisdom, come sit at the seat of my thoughts.
I encourage you to begin practicing these affirmations every day, twice a day (preferably upon awaking each morning and again before bed at night) for the next 21 days. The results may not be immediately noticeable in an obvious way but stick to it anyway. Like everything worth anything in life the effects of this mental transformation to achieve outer results is a process that takes time. So keep at it for the first 21 days. Then start over and continue saying them daily this time for 40 days and watch the major miraculous transformation you begin to experience in your life and affairs.
Until next time, I surround you in love & light beloved...Peace Be Still!

The Power of the Imagination
God created each of us as a one of kind divine design original masterpiece. If His imagination is that powerful and we are made in His image & likeness then just imagine the infinite possibilities that are yours for the taking. Through the God given power of our imaginations we can create original masterpieces as well in every area of our lives. It may seem like a difficult process to do yet it's really very simple.
Close your eyes and visualize the life you desire for yourself. Ask God to align your vision with the vision He has in mind for you that's in your best interest and highest good. Then surrender your vision and hearts desire to God releasing any attachment to the outcome. Trust in the perfection of the Divine Intelligence of Infinite Spirit to work out the details. Then watch the power of your imagination aligned with Gods will for you manifest in the most miraculous way and divine time. ~Peace Beloved

The Power of Non-Resistance
What many people fail to realize is that there is power in being non-resistant. If you’re not convinced of this truth then observe and take note of it from nature. When the gusty winds and storms come the trees do not resist. Rather, they remain flexible by bending and swaying gently with the flow of the raging winds of the storm allowing it to do its thing and pass on by. Then when the storm is over the strongest of the trees always survive and remain still standing.
Like wise, I encourage you to be like the trees. Practice the art and power of non-resistance. So that when the storms of life blow your way you too can maintain holding a calm, flexible attitude and posture. Remain grounded in your faith as you allow whatever storm in life you may be going through to do what it's come to do which is simply pass you by. Then see God bring you through it all like a strong tree still standing. After all, there is good that comes even in the mist of storms that usually show up as a lesson and/or blessing waiting for you just on the other side. ~ Peace Beloved

The Power of Choice
Through our God given power of choice,
we each have a voice...we each have a say,
To determine in any situation we find ourselves facing,
if it's in our best interest to walk away or stay
Through the power of choice we can choose to be a giver,
or choose to be the one who always takes.
We can choose to keep doing the same things over and over
getting the same result or we can choose to use wisdom
and learn from our past mistakes.
We can choose to repeatedly
find ourselves in conflict with others
by allowing ourselves to be driven
by our emotions, insecurities, and fears.
Or we can choose the path that leads to peace
by being slower to speak and swifter to hear.
After all, this is perhaps the reason
God gave us one mouth and two ears.
We can find ourselves enjoying more harmonious relationships
if we choose to do better at practicing humility
and come to fully understand,
that pride comes before the fall of every great man.
So it behooves us to choose to be happy
versus arguing to prove we are right
as often as we can.
We can choose to continue to feed the insatiable need
to feel the only way to get the outcome we desire
is by attempting to control every person
and situation in our lives.
Or we can choose to let go...
be still and know
that God rules the heavens and earth
and by right of our birth
we were created to prosper and thrive.
You see, the power of choice is a wonderful gift indeed.
And praying for discernment to use it wisely
is sound advise of which we should all take heed.
For choosing to see one another through the eyes of God
with an understanding heart of forgiveness, love & compassion
is more of what we need,
To heal our wounds and close the gap of separation
in all humanity
and see more of our relationships succeed.

The True Place of Power
Contrary to what you've been told,
true power isn't in the position or title you hold.
Neither is it in money...
for it cannot be bought or sold.
It has nothing to do with being young or old...
or the level of physical strength you uphold.
True power resonates from deep within,
a gift from God given to us
with no beginning, middle or end.
To tap into this inner power
all one has to do,
is align your mind with Spirit and
let God's Higher Power permeate through you.
Yet be conscious of your words and thoughts,
for they have power too.

Black Butterfly
From the tomb of darkness inside my cocoon,
I know my metamorphosis will be complete soon.
I see a beam of light as I begin to break free,
A major transformation is occurring within me.
Merely existing when my soul longs to live,
experiencing so little of this thing called life,
yet having so much within me to give.
With no idea where I'm going,
I’m certain inside this cocoon
I can no longer stay,
So to my Holy creator I silently pray,
As I prepare to step out on faith
letting love lead the way,
Trusting my Spirit guides
will not lead me astray.
Unsure of what the future holds
Yet, certain I’ll be okay,
No more inching through life as
a green caterpillar,
the time has come for me to see a new day.
For I deeply believe it’s my spiritual responsibility,
to live up to my God given potentiality.
So of my self imposed limitations I must break free,
Then take this beautiful vision of myself from within,
that so clearly I see…
and make it my reality...
As I become the version of me
I was created to be.
Restless to the point I can no longer sleep
and I know…
It’s time to answer the call of my soul,
that desperately yearns to grow.
Yes, it’s time to spread my wings,
and let my authentic self show.
So I…soar to the sky
following the rhythm of my unique flow,
As I…feel the winds of change begin to blow
Destiny is calling and won’t
accept from me the answer, “no”
So up, up and away I go!
I know my metamorphosis will be complete soon.
I see a beam of light as I begin to break free,
A major transformation is occurring within me.
Merely existing when my soul longs to live,
