Guiding Thought
I claim who I am, the essence of my Self, established in and by Love. My Self shines with the strength, beauty and power of its essence, Love. As I open to my Self, accept my Self, and Love my Self, the Life of Unity infuses all my activity and transforms my consciousness. Life as my Self renews my Joy and restores my trust in Life itself.
Reflection
Staying in balance.
Walking the path.
Keeping the Faith.
Allowing Love.
Where did I begin this Journey anyway? Oh, yes, with the intention of living a life worthy of the Holy Spirit.
“…the Life of Unity infuses all my activity and transforms my consciousness. Life as my Self renews my Joy and restores my trust in Life itself.” That sounds like living a life worthy of the Holy Spirit. In the Holy Spirit, is a life of unity.
I think, at least, that I am on the right track. There’s always a balance between spiritual and material in these practices. I must keep the faith in the spiritual, while I live in and experience the material.
The spiritual does not always come through the material when I want it to, and does not always look how I want it to look.
There’s been a lot of that going on this Journey: Keeping the faith.
Keeping the Faith also means working through doubt, and the guilt that feeling doubt brings up.
I’ve been working through a lot on this Journey. Every day I’ve been releasing, transforming, surrendering. All the panic, all the anxiety has been continually offered up.
I believe in setting an intention for a reason. The intention tells God-Spirit-Soul “hey, this is what I want”. If the intention is also what God wants for me, God shows me the path.
I believe that God wants me to live a life worthy of the Holy Spirit. The path though? Its been through a dense jungle of masses of thickets, branches, and tangled growth.
Clearing that mess away is my work, not God’s and that’s why I’ve had so much crap and junk–it’s all the underbrush and tangled mess. The path is there, God created it in perfect harmony with His Will.
It’s up to me to uncover it and follow it. If I am sincere in my intention, and sincere in the work, the uncovered path leads me to my goal, my intention, which is also God’s goal and Will for me.
