A Course in Miracles
Forgiveness and Politics
While I don’t typically talk about politics on this blog, I had to share this story because of the powerful lessons I learned last week. For those who disagree with my political position, I pray that you can see past that to the message this post is intended to share. Much love and light! The […]
Choosing Happiness
I didn’t start off the day in a great mood. I was super tired. My boys woke up at 5:50 a.m. (during my meditation/prayer time) and were not listening at all. My meditation was weak, even before the boys woke up. My stomach was bloated. My hair needed to be washed (for those who don’t know, […]
Spirituality and Religion
I have felt some tension from some people when I share spiritual ideas because of the perceived conflict between those ideas and religious doctrine. I truly believe the two can co-exist, but had not been able to articulate that marriage very well to those who I wished to express it to. The majority of my friends and […]
Forgiveness Opportunities
This week, a few incidents happened that would have previously sent me right into anger, frustration, upset, and stress. This time, instead of viewing each occurrence with resistance and dread, I noticed the speed at which my mind went to viewing them as forgiveness opportunities. I noticed my body calmed down much quicker, my breath was […]
Outpouring of Truth
A powerful word of Truth came to me this morning after meditating on my lesson for today in A Course in Miracles. I sprung out of bed at 5:15 a.m. with excitement and expectancy. It was like I knew something great was in store. As I read through today’s lesson, what stood out most was […]
Miracles in the Jungle
I just got back from vacation in Costa Rica with my husband. Our two boys stayed with my in-laws while we enjoyed some quiet time together at a beautiful nature retreat. Think hammocks…beautiful scenery…walking trails…the sound of monkeys howling…grasshoppers…crickets…bright-colored frogs. It was so easy to just fall into a meditative state through just being still, looking […]
We Are More Than Flesh
On Saturday, my lesson in the A Course in Miracles workbook was “I am Spirit”. I read it right after meditation, like I typically do, and this time I pushed myself to really practice the lesson for 5 minutes every hour as the workbook stated. I was to repeat this statement as I practiced each hour: Spirit […]
From Darkness to Light
This week is the last of my 12-week Foundations of Spiritual Living course. I just completed my final project, and thought I would share it with you all. It’s a visual representation of how the course, and other spiritual development work I’m made a priority over the last 6 months, has impacted my life. The “before” […]
Eternal Life, Part 2: My Path to Inner Peace
Earlier this week I shared my recent thoughts about immortality in a blog entitled “Eternal Life, Part 1“. I also mentioned I would follow up with “part 2” and share the ways in which I am reminding myself of our real home (Heaven) so that I don’t get caught up in what I see “in the world” on a daily […]
Being the Light
I feel SO good today! You know why? I am SO grateful for the greatest gift in the world…feeling perfect peace and love. I feel like I have new eyes, new ears, and a new mind (although I know that I have just uncovered what was there already, but was hidden behind my clouded perspective). It […]
