DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Setting Intentions Day 10 “Recognizing Eternity” 

Meditative Thought: The deepest awareness that we can have is our own eternity.  Once we realize that we are spiritual beings, having a human incarnation; that our spirit is never born and will never die, life becomes meaningful.  In 2011, I experienced a great deal of what appeared to be loss.  My nephew, 2 aunts, several close family friends and a student of mine made their transition in to ‘life after life.’  My ‘human incarnation’ experienced grief and pain, and some days I felt as if life did not have a purpose.  It wasn’t until I consciously began to do spiritual work around life eternal did my perception shift.  Daily I prayed and meditate on life never-ending.  I asked the Universe to show Eternity to me.  Every time I did, I felt the presence of my loved ones around me.  I felt comfort and a sense of peace.  For me this is evidence of eternity.

Another lesson that I learned through this experience is I do not have to wait until someone leaves this side of existence to anchor an eternity consciousness.  A daily practice builds spiritual consciousness so that I am prepared when the rocky waves of the sea of life hits.

We are all created from God; therefore we are everlasting.  Set the intention to know your infinite self.  It is the spiritual practice that allows us to tap into the open space of Divine Eternity.

Spiritual Assignment:  Today, ask to know eternity.  Close your eyes and breath in.  Contemplate life eternal through your daily meditation.  Be still and know your eternity.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment… just for this breath, I live the eternal life of God with high intentions.  My life is the blessing that empowers the world and all is well.  And so it is.  Amen.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Setting Intentions Day 9 “Your Divine Energy”

Meditative Thought: Set the intention to connect with your divine energy.  The pathway of roses or the journey to your higher self, is the purpose of our existence.  We have heard it over and over again, “To thy own self be true or be the author of your existence.”  We can only be authentic by remembering who and what we are.  That is always the first step to our greatness.  These great Avatars invite us to remember our divine energy.  I believe this can only be achieved through the stillness.  Your divine energy is the source of you, and it is what drives you into action.  Whenever I teach yoga, I remind the class and myself that this physical activity is a tool to remember our true spirit.  Daily awareness of the Divine is the practice.  Beloved, remember the light within and awaken your highest potential.

Spiritual Assignment:  Today remember your divine energy.  Set the intention to go within to connect with Source, so that you can be the author of your existence.  Be mindful that everything is sourced by God.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am the author of my life.  With the Divine, I co-create a magnanimous existence.  And Life is good.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Setting Intentions Day 6 “Remember To Remember”

Meditative Thought: Waking up is one thing, but staying a wake is a completely different practice.  Remembering to remember our divine self can be more challenging than experiencing “Ah-Ha” moments. Everyday there are eye-opening insights that activate evolution, but then comes the action, required to implement true change.  Once we begin the journey to shift, we must continue the work in order to remember.  This could come from prayer, meditation, sacred study, fellowship, and self-contemplation.  Set the intention to “remember to remember” everyday.

Spiritual Assignment:  Today, set the intention to stay awake.  A quick mantra can always help, “I am one with God.”  Create your affirmation that keeps you on track.  Commit to a practice of aligning yourself with the one power of God.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment… just for this breath, the qualities of God is my life.  I “remember to remember” my purpose.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Setting Intentions Day 5 “Why We are Here”

Meditative Thought: We are here to share our gifts upon this planet and to know our divine self.  We are not here to get anything, but to give.  Because we all are one, connected by the spirit of God, when we give we receive.  It is the “Law of Circulation.”   This is the time to set the intention to know our oneness.  We are living in a very unique time in our existence.  We have two choices, to evolve in consciousness and grow as a people, or annihilate each other and call it a day.  I am choosing the path of growth.  Will you join me?  Let’s remember why we have chosen to experience this side of eternity.  Let’s remember why we are here.

Spiritual Assignment:  Today’s lesson is to remember why you are here.  Take the time to bless everyone with your gifts and talents.  During your time at work, school, or play set the intention to bless and to give love. Remind yourself that you are here to give, not to get.  Walk with a new intention to show up as God.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I know the one power that is my life; therefore I am the blessing.  I move and groove with a new divine rhythm.  And so it is.  Amen.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Setting Intentions Day 4 “Love Yourself”

Meditative Thought:  The greatest love is self-love, not a conceited type of love, but a love with the understanding of who and who’s you are.  Set the intention to go deep within and connect with your divine self.  This is the Holy Spirit that is the one and only power source that is your life.  You are one in God; therefore you are always in love, in Divine love.  Love is your DNA.  Love is what you are.  Set the intention to know your self as Love, having a human incarnation.  The Course in Miracles says that if you are not in a mindset of love, you are blocking God’s miracle for your life.  Whenever we forget that we are love and to love ourselves, we hinder the flow of God, and we cannot freely love others.  Remember, it is your natural state of being, to Love.  Love thy self and then you can love others.

Spiritual Assignment:  Today, meditate on remembering self-love.  At the top of each hour, remind yourself, that you are Love; therefore you can love in all situations.  Set the intention to be mindful of who and what you are.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment… just for this breath, I am power with love and I bless the planet with Love.  Amen.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Setting Intentions Day 1 “A New Day”

Meditative Thought: Today is a new day, a New Year, and our life continues into eternity.  Because our existence is never-ending, we get the chance to push the restart button and begin a new.  This start-over is fueled with intentions.  The word intention means to be more, to stretch, to grow.  When we set intentions, we must be willing to expand our mind, body and spirit.  This New Year’s Day is the perfect time to begin your eternal existence again.  Remember, each day is a new day, each moment is a new moment, each breath is a new breath, and that we have never experienced this moment in God ever before.  Don’t waist this new day, use it to grow, and be more than you ever thought you could be.

Spiritual Assignment:  Today, set the intention to start again.  Create your own restart button by realizing that you are in the middle of eternity.  Take time to meditate on the newness of each breath, moment, and day.  Today, see the freshness of God, and refresh your life.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I live the newness of God that is my life.  I push the restart of eternity and create a new spiritual journey.  And so it is.  Amen.
