DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Embracing the Practice – Day 5 “Prayer as a Way of Life”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Embracing the Practice – Day 5 “Prayer as a Way of Life”

Meditative Thought: Because our connection to God is the greatest and most powerful source we have, we must communicate with that power every waking moment. Every decision, every choice we make can be directed by the Universe if we allow it. We have an amazing GPS within our souls; we only need to turn it on. Prayer is turning on the divine guidance system. When we make prayer a way of life, we can free ourselves from worry and doubt — free, because we are not in charge. We now have a power that is working on our behalf. It only wants the very best for us.

Your Spiritual Assignment: Today, set the intention to prayer without ceasing. Commit to a life of prayer. Everything we do can begin with a little prayer. Pray during your commute. Pray during meals and play time. Thank God for the moment you are in. You will be amazed as your life opens up like a lotus blossom.

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am the light that is powered by my intention. God is my life and I am blessed. Amen.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Embracing the Practice – Day 4 “The Power of Prayer”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Embracing the Practice – Day 4 “The Power of Prayer”

Meditative Thought: The Power of prayer is the shifting of our consciousness. When we pray, we realign our will with the will of the God. It is the prayer that reminds us that a power greater than ourselves is in control. There is a source that we are connecting to that elevates our existence. The power that we gain is not one of superficiality; it is real and it is never-ending. When we turn our will and life over to a greater power, there are no doors that block us from greatness; there are only ‘yeses’ that pave the pathway of success.

Your Spiritual Assignment: Today, journal about the power you receive when you prayer. It is important that we take note and record of our spiritual growth, and journal about your expansion.

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am a power emanation of God, fueled by my prayers. And so I am. Amen.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Embracing the Practice – Day 2 “What Is Prayer?”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Embracing the Practice – Day 2 “What Is Prayer?”

Meditative Thought: Prayer is the practice of communication with our highest consciousness. All prayer is our direct connection to a power greater than our self, which lives within our being. A prayer practice is a consistent activity that helps us to builds a strong spiritual awareness, helps to expand our faith, and creates an oneness consciousness with God. Our greatest gift is the ability to connect with our higher self where true power truly is. Our worship and communion to the Universal Presence remind us that we are alive and living with a purpose. Prayer is the invocation or invitation to spend time with Love, Joy, Bliss, and Divine Happiness. When we feel our life is out of balance, try prayer.

Your Spiritual Assignment: Today, begin your prayer practice. Set the intention to connect with Source every hour on the hour. Don’t make a move until you have asked your higher self the question “Is this for my betterment?”

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am the prayer that is praying me and all is well. Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Embracing the Practice – Day 1 “What Is The Practice?”

Meditative Thought: The practice is anything we do repetitively. A spiritual practice is a dedicated practice with the intention of expanding our consciousness and awareness of God. This activity is dedicated to the divine; a path to our natural state of bliss. Our personal journey inward to find peace is man’s greatest intention.

But sometimes we get off track. We use other practices, like drugs, sex, and shopping, to fill an imaginary hole within our heart. This human experience of feeling that something missing is a divine invitation to reconnect with what is real. All that we desire is within us. When we seek money, power, prestige, or anything outside of ourselves to make us happy, it is fleeting and disappointing.

The practice is the only thing that brings us back to our natural state of bliss. It is an inside job and nothing but our spiritual journey will ever fulfill us. Prayer, meditation, sacred study, fellowship, affirmations, sacred service, and generosity are the key practice that reconnects us with our “Higher Self.” When we are willing to take on a practice to transform our lives, the Universe will show up to support us. We are not alone on this journey to enlightenment.

Your Spiritual Assignment: Today, begin your journey within. Embrace a spiritual practice that will help you to know your “Higher Self.” For the next seven days commit to doing something for your soul. Read an inspirational book, meditate for five minutes, begin to pray whatever it is, today is a great day to start.

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I embrace my highest potential and I am anchored by my sacred practice. All is well and good in my life and I am blessed. Amen
