DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 18 “Compassion and Empowerment”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 18 “Compassion and Empowerment”

Meditative Thought: One of the greatest tools of empowerment is the ability to help someone.  The truth is, when we help someone we help ourselves.  We are connected through the divine love of God, and our nature is to reach out and to be of service.  As we walk this path of enlightenment, we get to examine the true meaning of compassion.  Compassion and Love is seeing someone as our self, and only wanting the best for him or her. In the movie Avatar, the essence of the film was expressed in a simple line: “I see you.”  Compassion is seeing that someone is hurting and saying, “How can I help?”  But all love and compassion begins with self and ends with self.  If we are challenged with showing compassion, we must check in with ourselves and ask, “Where am I in need of compassion?”  When we are kind to ourselves that is true empowerment.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, set the intention to be compassionate with yourself.  Write yourself a letter of compassion around an issue that is challenging.  Write the letter without getting lost in the story.  Today’s assignment is to love yourself without attachment to your feelings.  The practice is to learn true compassion and become an effective tool for healing.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am free to activate God. I am free to show compassion to others and myself.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 16 “Surrender to Empower Yourself”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 16 “Surrender to Empower Yourself”

Meditative Thought: The sacred act of surrendering to God is the first step of empowerment.  When we acknowledge that a power greater than ourselves is running the game, we can relax.  The surrendering to the Universal presence of order and balance leads to a Freedom, a freedom to do anything and everything that we are called to do.  We know that there is a power within us that is prefect, whole, and complete, and that knows exactly what you need to fulfill any mission. When we rely on that energy, we choose to empower ourselves with this non-equitable source.  When we are truly free to express God deeply, we begin to know true Abundance; Abundance of the Spirit. This Abundance in Spirit allows a deep flow of Creativity to show up in every part of our lives.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, identify places in your life that you are not willing to surrender to God.  Take the time to examine your life and see where you are holding on to the control.   Make a list in your journal, and then make a mindful intention to turn it over to God.  This is a process that may take days, months, even years, but the first step is the identification and the need to release.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am free to activate God. And so it is. Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 13 “The Pathway of Empowerment”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 13 “The Pathway of Empowerment”

Meditative Thought: The Universe is always directing the pathway of empowerment.  Our higher self is guiding every step we take if we are open to its direction.  God speaks but we don’t always listen.  During times of confusion and indecisiveness, go within and contemplate your next move.  When you are unsure of what comes next, ask yourself, what can I do to embrace my vision? What can I do to move myself to the next level? During a time of unemployment, this could be the time to start your own business.  Maybe it’s time to create your own flow of abundance, rather than depending on old ideas, un-fulfilling jobs, and/or people who don’t appreciate you. When things don’t seem to be working in your life, this is a time to find another way to be creative. When it appears that your life is not moving in the direction of your intentions, or it seems that you are in a period of inactivity, remember that The Universe is always working on your behalf.  Whatever your calling is, know that it is unfolding right here and right now.  True empowerment requires faith; no matter what, God is working in and as you.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, take a deep look at your journey.  Mindfully know that you are on a path with no destination.  Each step is designed to empower you in one way or another.  Mindfully walk the path today.  Stay awake and move through your day with the awareness that you have purpose; you are on the pathway of Empowerment.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I allow God to speak during this gestation period. And so it is.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 12 “A Message From the Emotional Zone”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 12 “A Message From the Emotional Zone”

Meditative Thought: Our emotions are our friend.  They tell us when things are in alignment or not.  When we are aware of our feelings, I call this the Emotional Zone, a time when we are listening to our inner self.  When we learn to listen to our feelings and trust the message, we become open to our emotional growth.  Emotional growth happens when we are not controlled by our emotions but rather when we use our emotions to check in.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, embrace your emotions.  Allow your heart to empower your every move.  Let your emotions guide you today.  Stay focused and balanced and know that God is in your “emotional zone.”

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I embrace my high vibrations and I allow my best life to come forth. I am one with Spirit; therefore
my life rocks. And so it is. Amen.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 11 “Daily Empowerment”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 11 “Daily Empowerment”

Meditative Thought: In a world that is based on getting ahead by working hard, we must remember the truth:  There is something bigger than us, something that is all-powerful, running the show.  Yes, we are responsible for co-creating our lives, but God is the source of this power.  As we look at our accomplishments, our to-do lists, our relationships, it is very easy to think that we are in control, but there is a Universal force that works within our soul.  It is this Presence that makes all things happen.  Make time for a daily reminder: Everything that we are and that we do come from the Universe. We are one in God and in God there is infinite possibilities.  Every moment you remember this is a moment of true empowerment.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, make a list of everything that empowers your consciousness.  Study this list and know its empowering effects.   List those practices that resonate within your soul.  Set the intention to up-level your awareness.  Dive into and commit to your sacred time with God.  Remember that power comes from the Universe; we only need to recognize it. Set aside time to practice.  This is the most important element of empowerment.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment… just for this breath, I am one with God. Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 10 “The Positive Power”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 10 “The Positive Power”

Meditative Thought: A positive attitude is what I call “Positive Power.”  The energy you that you align your intention with is key.  Keeping a positive attitude will give you the power that makes all things happen.  Positive Power energizes your goals and keeps you focused on a day-to-day base.  Our emotions are connected to our existence. The vibrations we send out help or hinder our personal growth. Gratitude is the foundation of Positive Power. Be grateful for this time. Understand that gratitude is a divine quality of the Universe; therefore Positive Power is God in action.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today set the intention to only participate in positive interaction.  Be mindful of your words.  Only speak words that inspire your life.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am inspired.  I stand in gratitude and empower my intentions with Positive Power.  And so it is.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 7 “The Power of Gestation”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 7 “The Power of Gestation”

Meditative Thought: How can we navigate through our gestation periods? Here is the key: stay focused and empowered.  Keep a positive attitude. Your thoughts will affect what emerges from this waiting space.  What we think is in direct relation to what we manifest for our life.  Our thoughts coagulate into our existence. If we think that nothing is going on during this time, than nothing is what our experience will be. It is the waiting that allows direction to come forth.  “Be still and know” is a verse from the Old Testament.  Be still and know that I am God.  Be still and know what to do.  Be still and know where to move.  Honor your gestation period and know that the great divine idea is growing inside you, ready to be birthed.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, recognize the power in doing nothing.  Be still and know the truth; wait on your insight.  There is power in staying put.  Spend time in meditation.  Throughout your day, spend time in contemplation, cultivating the insight you received during your meditation.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I allow only positive thoughts to be my experience.  And so it is.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 6 “The Cocoon of Empowerment”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 6 “The Cocoon of Empowerment”

Meditative Thought: A cocoon is a place of transformation.  A gestation period takes place during this miracle; what entered the cocoon is not what exits. During this transformation we must prepare for the change.  The question to ask is, “What is seeking to emerge from this cocoon?” The question is an activator for your own awareness that a shift is ready to take place.  The question is also a tool for empowerment.  We know that we are not standing still doing nothing.  We know that there is an up-leveling of our soul that is going on, and when we are ready, we will take on the vision that is pulling our existence to a higher level.  Like the caterpillar that goes into a shell to transform, you, too, shall awaken anew, spread your wings, and soar.

 

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, place yourself in a cocoon of The Divine.  Be still and know that you are wrapped in God.  Take the time to ask the question, “What is seeking to emerge from this cocoon?”  As you move through your day, have faith that you will receive an answer.  When the insight comes, you are ready to allow the Universe to take over.  Empower your vision with the grace of God.  Know that all is well and you are being held in the hand of Mother-Father-God.

 

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am god’s divine idea and I am ready to fly!  Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGET: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 4 “Empowering the World”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGET:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 4 “Empowering the World”

Meditative Thought: When we understand that our life has purpose because we are living, we begin to live a purposeful life.   From this awareness we will see our life vision.  We will take part in what God has called us to do.  My Friends, you are the tool the Universe has chosen to bring forth new and amazing ideas for this planet.  Only you can complete the calling.  As you begin to activate and participate in your divine gifts, you will empower the world.  You will inspire everyone you meet to be the best they can be.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, decide how you will inspire the world to greatness.  Set the intention to empower your community.  It only takes one person to start a chain reaction.  It does not have to be a big act; it can be the smallest thing, like picking up a piece of litter.  But if this act is filled with big intentions, it will set the world on fire.  Remember, you are the spark.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I bring forth great and new ideas.  I am the spark of eternal fire that transforms this planet.  And so it is.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 3 “Self-Esteem to Empowerment”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 3 “Self-Esteem to Empowerment”

Meditative Thought: I once heard a spiritual leader say, “If you are looking for self-esteem, do estimable acts.”  I believe there is a more expansive way of understanding that principle.   Self-esteem comes from an awareness of who and what you are, which then leads to participating in estimable acts.  When we see our true divine self and recognize our oneness in the Universe, our overall consciousness is elevated; we begin to love ourselves, and this in turns leads to admirable action.  Everything we do come from the knowing of who we are and that is true empowerment.

 

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, define what self-esteem mean to you.  Make a list of all the things that you can do to elevate your awareness that you truly are.  Prayer and meditation are at the top of the list for connecting with your divine self.  Choose one task, small or great, it does not matter.  While you are participating in that assignment, remember who and what you are.  Remind yourself that ‘you do because you are;’ not the reverse.  At the end of the day, journal about your experience.

 

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I recognize my self-esteem comes from my connection with God. And so it is, and so I let it be.
