Prayer
A Gentle Reminder to Look Inside
There are lessons in spiritual truth everywhere…even at the car dealership! After my car accidents, which I wrote about here, I had to find a car quickly to replace one of our two totaled cars. In the past, I may have looked for the most attractive and flashy looking car that I felt fit with the image […]
What Did I Do To Deserve This?
What did I do to deserve this? That is a question that plagues many of us when the worst happens in our lives. It’s a question that, I hate to admit, crossed my mind just last week, and during portions of this week. On Friday of last week, I wrote briefly on my blog Facebook […]
Calm in the Storm
Have you ever seen someone totally lose their cool in public? Have you ever felt a slight twinge of embarrassment for that person because you thought they were making a fool of themselves in public? Okay, we all have. In fact, some of us have been that person a time or two (just me?). In the […]
When in Doubt, Pray it Out
I am dizzy from the roller coaster of emotions I have experienced over the past few days. The ego is not going down without a fight, that’s for sure. In some moments, I’m experiencing the perfect peace of God within myself and in all things. In other moments, some of my old ego-driven tendencies pop […]
5 Steps to Releasing Negativity
I spent so many years living a beautiful exterior life and miserable interior life. I had all of the things a woman could dream of: a wonderful husband, healthy children, a high paying job, a roof over my head, disposable income to travel the world, and more. So, why the heck was I unhappy? I […]
Inspiring Quote by Thomas Merton
Tears came to my eyes this afternoon as I read this quote from Thomas Merton, a well-known mystic that authored the popular spiritual book The Seven Storey Mountain. I was so emotional because, up until this point, it has been difficult for me to describe to others how I feel right now, aside from saying something like “I […]
Waves in the Ocean
While on vacation in Costa Rica, I spent some time in the ocean. The water temperature was perfect. I was on my knees and fully immersed in it. As I looked around at all of the waves, I was completely taken in by the symbolism. I was reminded of what a great metaphor the ocean […]
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 […]
Let It Go
I have been super excited this week for a number of reasons, but one of the big ones has been that I have an AMAZING vision in mind that ignites my true passions and will take me in new directions. I talked about this a little bit in last week’s “Dreams are our Guideposts” blog, but now I’ve had another […]
Dreams are our Guideposts
My husband just got back from a week-long trip to Sweden for work and he brought me back the most thoughtful gift (pictured above) – perfect for where I am on my spiritual journey. The ring says “dreams are our guideposts” and the small roll of paper is to write your dream, the container is […]
