Spiritual Opportunites, Not Challenges

It's so much easier to live life when I'm living in light and love.  Some days are more challenging than others, that's just the nature of life.  I can look at these moments as challenges or as opportunities.  Opportunities for spiritual growth.  This is what I have been trying to do of recent.  There is nothing too big or too small that I can't get through without the loving guidance of my Higher Power.  Sure it may seem like it some times, but I know that everything always turns out just as it's supposed to.  All is for the highest good when I am living in that space of opportunity for spiritual growth. 

Life opened up for me when I shifted into this amazing space of being.  I knew I could get through anything as long as I was in alignment with Source.  Source to me is the Light of Love, the Light of All That Is, the Light we are from, that connects us all.  For we are all ONE.  Everything has a ripple effect.  Do no harm as I like to live and believe.  And, I know that the Universe will respond in kind.  It always does. 

I used to get mired down in the what if's and why nots and what about me.  I no longer live from that place of emptiness and fear.  It has been proven to me over and over again that God does take care of us.  No matter how bad the situation, be it health, home, family, etc., God always has an infinite plan in this finite world.  It may not make sense to us at the moment, but in the end, it all comes full circle.  That is what I refer to as the Circle of Life.  We are all in it.  There is no escaping it.  So why not make it the best life possible?  Live in goodness and joy.  The Law of Attraction, which seems to me to be more about abundance, instructs us on just that.  What we put out is what we get in return.  The thoughts we are thinking creates our reality.  So why not put out good thoughts, thoughts of peace, love, and joy.  Abundance is sure to follow.  It's not about the materialistic.  Although the Law of Attraction indicates that God wants us all to live abundant lives and to be lacking of nothing.  I find that place comes from within.  When I am living abundantly in my soul, magic occurrs in my life.  No longer am I bogged down with trivial matters, instead my whole soul is opened up to limitless possibilities.  I try to incorporate what works for me.

And, that is the beauty of this thing called life.  Although we are all ONE, we each are unique in our own beautiful ways.  We seek what lessons we need to learn.  All of our interactions are no mistake.  Everything DOES happen for a reason.  It is up to us to be spiritually intuned, sensitive, to what the Universe is trying to bring to us in that moment.  Lessons continually reveal themselves to us.  Whether it is someway we respond to a certain situation and we walk away from it saying to ourselves, "I could have handle that differently."  Or, whether it is a way of thinking that is preventing us from moving forward in our lives.  If we really look at ourselves, really examine our motives, we are sure to find some answers.  Come from a place of good intention, of true love and compassion, when we do, these spiritual lessons more than eagerly come to greet us.  It's as if the Universe is saying, "Aha, you are ready to grow more, good for you."

So let this day be about paying attention to the spiritual opportunities that spring forth around us.  The Universe is always in motion just waiting for you to jump on and be a part of this life of light and love and yes, abundance.  As it is said, "Seek and ye shall find."

Amen and amen,
Be in the Light,
