Empowered Thoughts

I received this beautiful poem after a recent presentation. My words were ordinary but Donna’s hearing and willingness to accept were extraordinary. Praise God!

REV. CHRISTINE

You spoke
of the
Divine Self within.

and I paid attention.

You said,
“The highest intentions come from Good.
I come from the highest intentions.
Therefore, I am Good.”

And my long Healing Journey was complete.

On the Wednesday evening
of June 16, 2010
at a Dress for Success meeting
I became a whole person.

A WHOLE person.

It wasn’t just
What you said
but How you said it.

Non-judgmentally,
freely given,
with Caring
and Love.

My long Healing Journey
was complete
that night.

My Life
of Healing
Began.

Thank you
from
the bottom
of my Heart.

There was a large family camped out in the ICU waiting room for several days. They were disruptive and noisy while the TV blared and the kids cried for attention. It was the only way they knew how to deal with pain. They were disagreeing about whether or not to turn off life support for their family member.

Sometimes life can cause disruption, noise and often there are too many things calling for our attention. The frustration of not being able to control anything is simply exhausting. We are left to rely on our faith, hope and God’s unlimited love.

Thank you for your continued prayers for us. I know your love messages and prayers are getting through to Laurence and he hears you and feels your love. I know I do.

The power of positive thinking! I love this. The enthusiasm, conviction, the passion. What a gift!

Spiritual faith is knowing that we don’t walk this journey alone. When we turn our awareness to God we know something greater is supporting us in our efforts and on our journey. As we develop the awareness of something greater than ourselves, we see more dramatic results.

Life can be so challenging. It can shake our faith on a daily basis. I know the more grounded I am in faith, I can meet the challenges that show up. I am truly grateful for my awareness of faith, God’s Love and the extraordinary blessings in my life.

You probably wouldn’t drive across the country without a plan. Yet we attempt to travel our spiritual journey uncertain of the direction we are going and without to tools to deal with the obstacles along the way.

Are you ready to live in freedom? Are you ready to accept your divine blessings? Join us as we practice the tools to live in freedom, clarity and love.

• Identify blocks to success
