Connecting with Spirituality

Friday August 15, 2014

In this world, people are judged by race, money, status, religion, and a thousand other criteria that society imposes on us. As spiritual human beings, however, we need to push ourselves to have a different consciousness.

Spirituality is believing that everyone has the right to draw spiritual energy and to bring that energy into their lives and the lives of others. Spirituality is understanding that the Light force of the Creator transcends the physical world. Spirituality is realizing that the Light exists in each and every one of us. Spirituality is about caring for the welfare of others and not just looking out for ourselves. 

When this is our consciousness, we can arrive at a place where we have a sense of unity with our neighbor and the blessing of Light in our lives and in the world.

The Wonderful Spirit That Is In You.

"Something in you knows that you are greater than anything you have yet experienced or expressed. This inner knowing, this feeling of potential greatness, is the spirit of God in you trying to break through. It is like sunlight that may be temporarily hidden behind clouds; but the clouds cannot take away the light. Nothing can erase or lessen the bright, glorious, wonderful spirit that is in you."

Stories of Freedom...Celebrate and appreciate your Freedom!

Getting started, the hardest thing to do?

Thanks you to Greg of TODO Institute for sharing this.

Sometimes the greatest challenge is to actually begin: there is something deep in us that conspires with what wants to remain within safe boundaries and stay the same. Years ago my neighbor here set out to build his new home. He had just stripped the sod off the field to begin digging out the foundation when an old man from the village happened to come by. He blessed the work and said, "You have the worst of it behind you now." My neighbor laughed and said, "But I have only just begun." The old man said, "That's what I mean. You have begun; and to make a real beginning is the most difficult act."

There is an old Irish proberb that says, "Tus maith leath na hoibre -- a good beginning is half the work." There seems to be wisdom here, when one considers all the considerations, hesitation, and uncertainty that can claim our hearts for such a long time before the actual act of beginning happens.

from To Bless the Space Between Us by John O'Donohue

What is Scientific Prayer?

Here is an essay from Emmet Fox:

Scientific prayer or spiritual treatment is really the lifting of your consciousness above the level where you have met your problem. If only you can rise high enough in thought, the problem will solve itself. That is really the only problem you have-- to rise in consciousness. The more “difficult” which means more deeply rooted in your thought, is the problem concerned, the higher you will have to rise. What is called a small trouble will yield to a slight rise in consciousness. What is called a serious difficulty will require a relatively higher rise. What is called a terrible danger or hopeless problem, will require a considerable rise in consciousness to overcome it, but that is the only difference.

Do not waste time trying to straighten out your own or other people's problems by manipulating thought, that gets you nowhere, but raise your consciousness, and the action of God will do the rest.

Jesus healed sick people and reformed many sinners by raising his consciousness above the picture they presented. He controlled the winds and the waves in the same way. He raised the dead because he was able to get as high in consciousness as is necessary to do this.

To raise your consciousness you must positively withdraw your attention from the picture for the time being (The Golden Key) and then concentrate gently upon spiritual truth. You may do this by reading the Bible or any spiritual book that appeals to you, by going over any hymn or poem that helps you in this way, or by the use of one or more affirmations. Just as you like.

I know many people have secured the necessary elevation of consciousness by browsing at random through the Bible. A man I know was saved in a terrible shipwreck by quietly reading the 91st Psalm. Another man healed himself of a supposedly hopeless disease by working on the one affirmation, “God is love," until he was able to realize something of what that greatest of all statements must really mean.

If you work with affirmations, be careful not to get tense; but there is no reason why you should not employ all these methods in turn, and also any others that you can think of. Sometimes a talk with a spiritual person gives you just the lift that you need. It matters not how you rise so long as you do rise.

“I bore you on Eagles wings, and brought you onto Myself."

Spirit Responds to You!

your willingness, your readiness,

and your consciousness..”

God's ideas are yours, James A. Decker

As you consider your goals, wishes or dreams for 2014 I trust you will find James Decker's words of help.

Here's to your "Year of Radical Living!"

Without any previous experience whatsoever, with nothing to your credit but faith in God, you get the ideas that will change lack to abundance, failure to success, poverty to riches, in harmony to harmony, a dull, humdrum existence to an exciting, thrilling, new way of life.

Try it. Try it right now. Use whatever affirmation you wish to turn your mind to God: "God the good is all there is," or "God is," or "thy will be done." Once you are free of the little, inconsequential, conflicting fragments that habitually pass for thoughts in the minds of most of us, apply your real thoughts consciously to whatever you want to achieve. Perhaps you will get a brilliant, thrilling idea within a few minutes. Perhaps the idea you confidently seek will spring into your consciousness tomorrow morning, after your subconscious mind has put in its work tonight.

All you have to do now, all you ever have to do, is to start thinking, with faith that you are attuned to the infinite mind of God. When you do this you cannot fail; you can only succeed; you can go in only one direction -- forward; your life will know no more of lack, but only prosperity; you will exchange disharmony, worry, envy, fear, and all the other troubling, upsetting emotions for the perfect balance of a life that is in divine order and adjustment. All this you will achieve, because God's ideas are yours.

n case you haven’t seen this animated video of a talk by psychiatrist and writer Iain McGilchrist, it’s worth watching Iain clears up popular misconceptions about the function and relationship between the right brain and left brain, and updates our current understanding of the two hemispheres: The left brain helps us work with information within a closed system that is fixed, isolated, static, abstract and general. The right brain helps us work with  information within a broad context that is living, interconnected, changing and individual.
Here is the link if the video doesn't show up. http://youtu.be/dFs9WO2B8uI




In this new RSA Animate, renowned psychiatrist and writer Iain McGilchrist explains how our 'divided brain' has profoundly altered human behaviour, culture and society.

The Widow’s Oil

July 21, 2013

[excerpt from A Practical Guide to Prosperous Living]

A widow approached the prophet Elisha with the problem that she had bills she could not pay and debtors who were threatening to take her two children into slavery. Elisha asked the woman what she had in her house, and she said she had nothing except a single jar of oil. He instructed her to go out and borrow from her neighbors as many empty vessels as she could. He told her to take the empty vessels into her house, shut herself and her children inside, and then begin pouring the oil into the vessels. When one was full, another was to be brought until she ran out of empty vessels. She followed these instructions, pouring oil until the last vessel was filled. When she reported to Elisha what had happened, he told her to go and sell the oil, pay her debts, and live off the remaining money.[1]

Using this powerful illustration from the Old Testament, let’s take a closer look at each of these steps. Read more
