02.01.05 - Soul Prints
Your soul print is your spiritual signature. It is the contour
and content of your soul—its character. - Rabbi Marc Gafni,
Soul Prints
Many of us have pondered the meaning of life, yet each New Year
brings a fresh opportunity to more deeply reflect upon our soul's
destiny. Science of Mind principles teach us that we are
all unified in God, and simultaneously each of one of us is uniquely
expressing our own special, divine essence. In other words,
although we are all made of the same cosmic energy, that energy
outpictures itself in a myriad of diverse, unique forms. Just
as all snowflakes are made of hydrogen and oxygen, each snowflake
has its own distinctive design. The same is true as to each
one of our soul prints. In the physical realm no two fingerprints
are alike, and on the spiritual plane, each soul print is unique
to each person.
Rabbi Gafni states in his book Soul Prints, "Your soul print
exists not only within, but also without—in how your soul
touches the world…Everywhere you walk in the world, you leave
behind the beautiful, valuable, matchless print of your soul." An
important part of our spiritual journey is to recognize the way
in which our soul is calling to us. To know who we really
are—unique, divine beings—and to be able and willing
to let our unique light shine boldly and brightly is a significant
aspect of living our soul prints. By fully "showing up" and
being all that we are meant to be, we allow the magnificence of
our soul to emanate out and illuminate the souls of others.
This sharing of our soul prints with other beings is what Rabbi
Gafni calls "soul encounters." He states: "…living
our soul prints can bring us happiness and profound connection
to ourselves, to others, and to God…" I invite
you to join with me to celebrate this New Year by enthusiastically
and unabashedly sharing your soul print. In this way, we
join together to uplift the consciousness of love on planet Earth.
I'll send you my soul print if you send me yours! Reverend
Angela
BLESSING:
The magnificence of a divine Presence is witnessed everywhere I
rest my gaze. Life is the sanctified image of an Infinite Oneness.
Man is a vibratory structure of unity consciousness in the organic
world of Intelligence. My divine purpose in this material kingdom
is to actively embody this Oneness and live its unfoldment "down
here".
Today I become the host of this very Presence within the design
God made. By simply intending to be the transceiver space of pure
unity built into the biological system of mankind I can bring a
unique unfoldment of Light to my personal world and to the lives
of all who come before me. I shall bring the function of love into
something that can make a difference as I live this day! Great
and glorious experiences take place through me as I allow myself
to get out of the way of this Power. As the law of Mind operate
through me I serve as the yearning of Spirit for greater and greater
expression as the One true love.
I release this Truth and give deep thanks for the privilege of
dwelling in the holy sanctuary of God's Perfection. Aligned with
a Source that radiates through and as me I confidently declare:
I am love, I live from love, and I give love. And so it is
forevermore. Amen.

- Allness of Being
AFFIRM
:I
am alight with the Allness of Being.
My practice this day is to keep reintroducing the beauty of
this illuminated thought because for soooooo long I have forgotten
that I have always been whole, that I am God inspired, that
I am the Creator, that I am love. Many times today I bring
back together in thought that which is already together in
essence. Indeed, and so the experience is.

- Sacred Soul
It
becomes clearer every day that we live in a world cut off from
the healing depths of its soul. The soul gives us character,
individuality, connection, and humanity. But the soul flourishes
only when we bring to it daily care, when we take time to be
with others, to connect with nature, and to work at what matters.
Many years ago something inspired me to use the ancient phrase "Care
of the Soul" in place of therapy, cure, growth, or improvement,
and as time goes on I see ever clearer the value of those words.
Spirituality has a dark side, a negative shadow that can be
problematic and even dangerous. By discovering the spirituality
deep in the sacred core of ordinary experience, spirituality
can be enriched and grounded. A relationship with your own
soul will help you find meaning, healing, love, and understanding
without integrating anything. You can be a holy person without
doing it right and most unconventional of all, deepening and
intensifying love, desire, pleasure, and beauty without understanding
any of it.
From Thomas Moore, author of Natural Religion, Discovering
Spirituality Deep in Ordinary Life.
BLESSING:
The universe is an absolute, sublime order that is always flowing
into and out of form; revealing and concealing itself in perfect
bliss. This universe is infinite, all intelligent, and completely
empowered to accomplish whatever it sets out to accomplish.
And what is true of me is that I am made of this stuff; created
out of the infinite perfect presence of Spirit, out of this
one pure and perfect order, always revealing and unfolding
and discovering my preexistent, inherent self...which is perfect
in every way.
I perceive the natural harmony in every moment. I experience
the flow of my life with ease and delight, moving swiftly when
the currents are swift, and drifting easily when it is drifting
time! I don't get out of joint because things don't go as I
expect; I go with the flow of harmonious creation, and let
that creation create in me a sense of deep and abiding ease.
I don't push the river, but let it lift me up and carry me
forward. This universe is an easy place to live in and prosper
in and love in and create in, and I go about my business believing
this truth with all my heart and soul.
The natural, lawful result of this: my life works, and it works
wonderfully! In care of my soul, something in me perceives
the order and harmony within, and trusts in that so implicitly
that nothing can discourage me.

- Indigo Etiquette
Indigo
Etiquette One week ago I was afforded the opportunity
to see the "Indigo" movie three, yes Three, times.
The local folks here in Virginia Beach filled all the seats
we had available each night. It was wonderful to sit with all
of my kindred friends and view the latest artistic expression
from Spiritual Cinema.
Now that the movie has created an even greater awareness about
these children I think it is time for all the adults to learn
some "Indigo Etiquette." The main character,
Grace, was Perfect as the wise one beyond her years in this
film. I know there are Many Graces upon the Earth at this time.
Many of you interact with them daily. You recognize their essence
and vibrational alignment to something different than most.
They summon More Possibilities and Goodness into their lives.
It is a wonderful thing because they realize it too, and they
are willing to share all that they are with the adults in their
lives.
So today we are going to review a few of the basic "Indigo
Etiquette" rules that apply when visiting with one of
these Souls. Rule #1: Responsibility. All beings must be responsible
for all their choices this lifetime. In the film Ray never
allowed his son Stewart to live the consequences of the choices
he made. Deciding to do this only cheated Stewart out
of his soul lessons. In a sense Ray was announcing to the Universe
that his son couldn't possibly be powerful enough to walk his
path. Indigos know that each soul is empowered with an
innate Responsibility to live out the choices we make in this
place we are calling home. When you are in Indigo society it
is impolite to deny self-responsibility.
#2: Thought Energy Alchemy. This is the phenomena of changing
thoughts into concrete reality. Some might call it mind over
matter, but the Indigo generation refers to this as conscious
creating. Deep within Indigo philosophy it is written that
all are in the small what God/Source/The All-That-Is is in
the large. This includes the ability to choose consciously
and create.
#3: Dimensionally Accelerated: When visiting in Indigo culture
you are going to feel like the blind person in the candy store.
Indigo beings are not dimensionally challenged like their human
friends. They see beyond our vision and hear beyond our audio
abilities. Never think that just because you can't see it that
it is not real to them. When they ask you if you can see something,
just politely explain that you are dimensionally challenged
and that you need them to describe or explain what they are
experiencing. They will understand.
Ok, so there are three basics that you can start using Today
upon entering Indigo territory. Remember the old rule of thumb
our parents taught us? "When in someone else's house,
do as they do. Be beloved and polite."
Now mind your manners, Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
There is only One unseen potential. It is the Invisible, which
is always bringing the visible into awareness as form. I recognize
the vastness and wonder of such an Infinite, Creative Power
of God. It is the I Am Truth of me and of all that I will
meet this day. I dwell in ALL its expressions today and receive
inspiration.
God works as all shapes, sizes, and colors with all Its love,
beauty, compassion and joy. God is born into physical bodies to
allow a continuance of generations of Itself. Within
these forms It emanates the boundary-less boundaries of the
Universe. It imagines better than I ever have, and I witness
this in the Indigo souls that are now the Well-Being of the
planet. They achieve a new level of spiritual impulse. They
are God living Its Life in a new sense. I feel a closeness
to this new form -- a whole heart connection, because although
we are different I am certain we are rooted in that which is
identical. I offer a smile to every child I meet. I welcome
this new Form with the understanding that we share a common
source, and that in truth we are one.
Joyfully celebrating the Beloved Community of God, I walk into
this day embracing the perfection God has created. Knowing
this day is consecrated in Divine Love I release these words
and know they are complete. And so it is.

- Being Yourself
In
life... you cannot EVER be... less than you really are... BUT
YOU CAN THINK... that you're less... than you really are. DON'T.
Life
is not about hiding and seeking, nor is it about learning the
things you've forgotten - no, it's not even about remembering
them. It's about BEING! BEING YOURSELF! You were Born to Expand
the Infinite Nature of God.
Live only to be who you now are. You are Creation's first and
last hope to fill the shoes you alone can fashion, and eternity
will pass before this chance will come again. You are the dream
of a legion before you who have passed on the torch of Space-Time
awareness so that your mere existence could immeasurably enrich
All That Is, God. By simply BEING, you will fulfill this dream,
centered in the Here and Now where all dreams come true, all
truths reside, and understanding is born.
Your sacred heart was hewn at the dawn of creation in a dance
to celebrate the birth of forever. You can do no wrong. There
are no "shoulds" or "shouldn'ts"; "rights" or "wrongs".
Life is not about being happy, sad, good or bad. It's not even
about making your dreams come true, that much is inevitable.
There is only BEING. Eternal BEING. Inescapable BEING. You
are perfect, It is done. Your rare and precious light, has,
and will forever more, illuminate the worlds you create...
the worlds that now wait... for your blessed BEING.
Hallelujah!! Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
I am made from it. Everything that I am - what I accept and
appreciate, and what I do not - is this perfect Self in one
of its infinite differentiations. Simply, all that I am, is
god. And god being infinite, I touch the infinite. I am connected
to it.
Today, I draw from this Infinite Source, and rely on it for
every thing. Because it is all wisdom, the answers I need are
within it. Because it is health, I rely upon it for the healing
and vitalizing of my body. Because it is richly abundant, I
rely upon it for my daily needs. Because its nature is love,
I recognize that my loving is its loving, and the love I receive
is its love for me. Because it is unending creativity, my mind
is continually inspired by its genius.
This universe is indeed the ultimate in compassion, for it
has given me the ability to choose - to live my life in the
same old way, or to awaken to the deeper truth of what is going
on around and within me, all the time. Today, I wake up and
choose to live from the highest point of view. The natural
consequence of this is a life where I don't have to follow
my bliss...my bliss finds me.
Thank God for this wonderful, lawful, creative universe, and
the absolute freedom I have to make a beautiful life! And so
it is.

- Winter's Warmth
"Some
of us . . . are darkness-lovers. We do not dislike the early
and late daylight of June, whippoorwill's graytime, but we
cherish the gradually increasing dark of November, which we
wrap around ourselves in the prosperous warmth of the woodstove,
oil, electric blanket, storm window, and insulation. We are
partly tuber, partly bear. Inside our warmth we fold ourselves
in the dark and its cold -- around us, outside us, safely away
from us; we tuck ourselves up in the long sleep and comfort
of cold's opposite, warming ourselves by the thought of cold,
lighting ourselves by the darkness's idea." - Donald Hall,
from Winter, A Spiritual Biography of the Season.
** the message here is to not get triggered by those who appear
lazier in the winter, perhaps they are exploring how the dormancy
and difficulty of winter as can be a time of spiritual preparation
and transformation.
BLESSING:
There is an Infinite, Eternal Power always in action, creating
greater and greater expressions of love for me. Because I am
a manifestation of It, I possess all the knowledge necessary
to create a gentle and quiet expansion during this winter season
of Source's love.
New ideas and pieces of information present themselves as I
listen to my own internal voice which is ever linked to the
universal voice of absolute knowing. Past experiences
have no hold on my current reality as I move from winter's
inner development to the first stirrings of outer work. Just
as the first small rays of Spring's sun slowly return to my
world of form, I too move forward to bright new experiences
that lovingly express the fullness of my unfolding desires.
In this time of clear awareness I rest contented in the
all wisdom power of my spiritual heart and I am at peace.
For this blessing I give thanks. I joyously bow before the
purity of love knowing that the Promise and the Prophecy are
within me. And so it is.

- Wholeness of Being
AFFIRM:
I
am awakened to the wholeness of Being this day
and richly experience my Light as it moves Spirit's love
out into the world.
I am instrumental in propelling and anchoring this
common Origin within my daily movements in order that
others may feel the gloriousness of being an individuated
act of Oneness and Sacred Unity.
The capacity to love deepens the perception of self
and expands my Self-Authority so thankfully I lead
from that place that knows Itself as whole,
that knows Itself as complete,
that knows Itself as fully formed and developed
Hallelujah!
And so it is.

- Garments of the Soul
Hasidi
Tales: Annotated & Explained by Rabbi Rami Shapiro.
There are three Garments of the Soul, three ways in which the
Divine enters into the world: thought, word, and deed. We are
born with all three, but over time they become soiled and need
refining. We refine thought through study, prayer, and contemplation.
We refine words through right speech, taking care to use words
that heal and not harm. We refine deeds through acts of loving
kindness. This is what Simcha Bunem, one of the Hasidic rebbes,
knew instinctively, and what he sought to demonstrate to the
learned rabbis who came to visit his father.
So often we are captivated by the magic and mystery of spiritual
attainment. We imagine that spirituality leads beyond this
world of ordinary doing to a pristine land where everything
material is spiritualized. In this imagined world thought and
words take precedence over deeds, and we begin to discount
doing even in the everyday world. This is a major failure in
spiritual maturity. The world to Come is this very world free
from illusion of separate selves and the inherent selfishness
such and illusion perpetuates. Thought, word, and deed are
not three separate Garments, but one Garment with many layers.
Thought leads to words, and words lead to deeds. If the thoughts
are tainted with selfishness the deeds will be poisoned with
greed. But the way to cleanse the thought is not to think,
for that is simply more of the same. To cleanse the inner layer
you must begin with the outer. You will know God by doing godly.
BLESSING:
The Absolute Oneness of God is all there is and I recognize
this Oneness as Life. I know we are the intention of Good manifesting
in the universe. We are the Beauty that erupts from the eternal
stillness Itself. Children of perfect Love, Power, and Intelligence.
Acknowledging that intention determines the nature of the essence
of everything we observe how Nature - God - works and we begin
to work in like manner. Never considering any task complete
until we have carried the experience to some final outcome
of Beauty, whether material, spiritual, intellectual, or emotional.
Having been born in the womb of harmony in the Universe we
can only demonstrate the Beauty of Infinite's completeness.
Just as we are beautiful because we perfectly express original
thought, all that we are kindly expresses the same. The nature
of a holy Spirit in continual pulsation affirming the Whole.
We are the bridge of Light in creation. We are the great principles
of Beauty from the All-Spirit developing lives of Living Power
now and forever.
Being thankful for this gift of truth, and with the Power of
Spirit I release these words upwards to the heavens, and the
Infinite Mind, knowing it is done to us as we believe. Joyously
thanking God, and so it is.

- First Cause of Early Start
As
we journey into the second lunar cycle of the year may you
find yourself living from your deepest heart. Since the year
is asking us as planetary citizens to think beyond our own "unwise
selfish" and toward "wise selfish" it is a good
time to take a moment and ask, "How do I know when I am
living directly and immediately from the heart?"
A metaphysical approach to this is that the consistent thoughts
that we are at home with reveal our heart's priorities. By
deliberately pausing throughout your day and witnessing that
around which your thoughts revolve is how you may observe the
quality and depth of your heart-consciousness. Intensify your
focus and look at how and where you feel most authentic. Are
you in judgment or compassion? In your ego or in recognition
of That which doeth the works in you, as and through you? Grasping
and wanting, or surrendering and being non-attached? Keeping
yourself entertained or living a the fulfilled life as a balanced
leader?
Wise are those who examine the content of what's passing through
their awareness to discover those subtle, subliminal holdings
of which we would otherwise be unaware. Spiritual practice
is not for the purpose of avoiding or bypassing an honest ownership
of what occupies your consciousness and instructs your
heart's response to life and its experiences. The world needs
individuals who are willing to be honest and be dedicated to
stepping into the qualities of the heart. This February be
willing to invest in yourself wisely -- listen with an inner
ear and actively express your sense of genuine character.
May your heart be so spacious that Life itself may find shelter
within it and be the First Cause of your every thought, word
and action!
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
The Power that created me is always perfectly pleased with
me, and that is enough. My only quest is to live life from
the heart's directive and be pleased with myself. Anyone else's
opinion of me is none of my business.
Being pleased with myself does not mean I look perfect to the
outer world. It does mean that I always behave to the best
of my spiritual understanding. If I want to create something
better in my life, I simply improve my level of understanding
of how life works, then act on my new and greater awareness.
I possess a quiet strength and replenishment of authentic Spirit
for the investment of attention to Self. I recognize
the miracle of everyday heart-open living, and explore trusting
the Intelligence that created and sustains this miracle constantly.
I take note of whatever I've been living and resolve to allow
the artistry of Creation to come to me. I trade desire for
the feeling of desire fulfilled, and open my hands not to get,
but to give thanks. Reverently I follow my heart and mind to
find my greater good always. And so it is.

- Secret Soul Valentine
"Think
of yourself as an incandescent power, illuminated and perhaps
forever talked to by God and his messengers." - Brenda
Ueland
VALENTINE
BLESSING:
God, Infinite Being, creates all there is from It's glimmering
light. I am not a thing apart from this light for I am a creative
expression of substance by means of Divine Law. A child
of its completeness surging towards a oneness with all of life.
The veil of illusion lifts slowly and I feel the clarity of
vision growing in me as I meet my truest nature; my true reason
for being. The true Life in me prepares itself, strengthens
itself for the moment I agree that it may overflow its bounds
and gather to me the lessons which will empower me to channel
the depth of its spiritual power. I resist nothing and am fulfilled
in expansion as I contemplate living a profound, positive existence
in the unfolding plan of Light. As Ernest wrote in The Science
of Mind, "the real Self is God-given and cannot be denied.
It is the place where God comes to a point of Individualized
and Personified Expression". From this moment forward
my God-endowed assets become my natural state of limitlessness.
I affirm this Truth, joyfully letting the Light of Adoni
shine through me, wherever I am, whatever I am doing. I
give thanks for the gifts which are bestowed by declaration
of these words. And so it is.

- Evolving Health
"The
Spirit that raised Jesus dwells in all. This Spirit quickens
our mortal bodies when we let It. Here is a lesson in mental
and spiritual healing. As the Truth dawns upon the subjective
state of our thought, it stimulates it into newness of
action. Everything works from within out. The body is a
reflection of the Soul and when the Soul, which is subjective
state of thought, is illumined by the Spirit, it quickens
the mortal part of us and heals the body. The mortal is
always an effect, a creature of time but a necessary one,
for without it we could not function as objective individuals." -Ernest
Holmes, The Science of Mind pg. 484
What my beloved friend, Ernest, is telling us here is that what
you focus thought upon becomes your reality. When we sincerely
ask for healing with deliberate intent we are sending a movement
of consciousness through the creative principle of life, or through
the Law as we call it in Science of Mind. If you want the Spirit
of health, success, or abundance and you send for it with a spiritualized
thought it must appear! Call for it from an alignment within and
the external picture shall materialize. What will you allow Spirit
to quicken for you today?
Go ahead, put your order in
- Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
The elegant universe is a dazzling Divine force of Infinite
Right Action. It is a Presence of intelligence combined with love,
and It knows exactly what to do, become, and be in each moment
to achieve perfection. I realize I am part of this evolutionary
path of Light. The companion "Source" of me has mapped
out All That Is.
Today I channel this creative output of universal
consciousness throughout my human biology and physiology. I do
this with an awareness and intent of radiant, vibrant health down
to the quantum cellular level. I open my mind and allow healing
perfection to travel the heart path soothing every imbalance and
discord with frequencies, vibrations, modulations of perfect Universal
Oneness. This unique energy matrix activates the innate evolutionary
codes of robust, exotic health and challenges all illness or disease
that attempts to resonate within the cellular system. Much is changing
with this accelerated consciousness and all alien substances that
do not originate from the goodness of Love dissolve and are easily
eliminated from the physical body. This temple of Being is now
a paradigm of an integral, full range harmonic repository of vitalizing
Lifewave.
Today I accept my connection with All That Is. I open to my intended
changes, and embrace the wonder of what I truly am. Joyfully I
have reached a new level of expression from an inner decision to
immerse myself in Universal Love. I am transcendence, growth, and
the evolvement of potent vital radiant health. It is done, and
so the experience is.

- In the Name of Love
AFFIRM:
Today
I remember the truth: that Spirit is the source of all
things, that there is never an obstacle to the good that
I seek, that all the resources and creativity I need are
to be found within. The source of all life, myself included,
is an Infinitely Creative Presence which is always making
itself known by means of humankind's endless creative nature.
I am totally aligned with this field of creative genius. Big,
bold, wonderful ideas are always in my thoughts, in my
heart, and in my life...because I open to accept them with
all of my Being.

- Mental Yoga
What
is the difference between your experience of existence
and that of a saint? The saint is now continually tripping
over joy and bursting out in laughter, and saying, " I
surrender!" Whereas, my dear, I am afraid you
still think you have a thousand serious moves. - Hafiz
In spiritual growth circles, it's easy to get caught up in levels
and stages. Practicing spiritual principles, meditation
or anything that we do, though, is not just about "getting
somewhere." It is actually about mental flexibility. Recently,
I realized that spiritual mind treatment is a lot like a spiritual
version of a yoga pose. With treatment, we take a mental
pose in the midst of a situation and explore how we are operating
in the world.
I call this process "spiritual yoga." Take
a mental pose. It could be spiritual mind treatment, affirmations,
visioning, forgiveness, gratitude, or whatever pose occurs to you
at the moment. Explore this pose. How flexible
are you in this pose? How stiff? How rigid or balanced? Where
is your point of support? Where is your point of imbalance? What
parts of you are you using most? What parts are you using
least? Can you breathe into this pose? Do you need
to relax out of this pose? Or do you need to completely release?
And the goal? No goal -— just awareness. If
we get somewhere, great; but that in itself is not the whole of
the gift. The complete gift is the process. And adjunctively,
the gift is enhanced by a renewed sense of flexibility and strength
-— mental flexibility and strength.
So the next time you get caught up in trying to complete a stage
or to get to a new level, just remember: life is your yoga studio. All
you have in front of you is the pose, the mental pose. Just
check in with yourself and be with whatever arises. Expand
your awareness to "what is" and have fun exploring and
taking different poses. And, in the end, all you need to
do is breathe through it and right into it.
As you live within your pose, your potential shows up to say "Hello"!
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
At the core of my being lies Eternal Spirit. I am posed in a field
of Infinite Possibility. Universal Wisdom guides me, and my expression
is unlimited as I become filled with its light.
Today, I humbly honor the doer in me that makes my world revolve
as I listen to the voice within. The familiar tone that is at the
center of my Self. Before I speak, act, or choose, I listen. I
hear the procession of my highest Self descending into every moment
and I make ready to surrender. I have the courage to follow the
cascading wisdom from this secret place of the most high. I trust
my emotions and honor all messages they bring. I listen to my body
as it conveys what it needs. I allow the greatest vision for my
life come forth from deep within myself. Its richness brings peace
to my soul.
It is with a thankful, blissful heart that I release my word to
the Law of the Universe. The seed is now planted Divine Mind and
nourished by my consciousness. It is done, and I am blessed! And so
it is.

- Make Each Day Count
Love
the paradoxical nature of the human being. I met with a
woman yesterday who asked, as many of us do, "when
am i going to find the path that i've been shown i'm suppose
to be on? I'm tired of waiting for it. I get glimpses of
it, but it never truly manifests itself." if
i have had to come up with this answer once, i have had
to come up with it a hundred times. Let me explain it once
more for we have all wondered from time to time about our
rightful, highest expression.
First of all, you wouldn't be sitting with me for guidance, or
reading these words each day, if you weren't walking a portion
of that path right now! Did you ever think of that? You might say, "reverend
angela, you don't understand i have a job i don't like. I don't
have much money in the bank, and i'm standing around waiting for
something good to happen. You're telling me that this is it?" no,
i'm telling you that there's more here than meets your understanding
about "path." why are you really here on earth? Didn't
you come to do some work?
Are you walking in a dark place? Is there stress, or even perhaps
strife where you are? As kryon asks : how many lighthouses have
you seen on calm, serene bays lately? "none," you say?
Whys is that? Is it perhaps because they're needed specifically
in places that are challenging for others to navigate? Yes!
Maybe you're the only one at work with a light! The frustration
about your path is due to misunderstanding. Maybe it's time you
found joy where you work. If you can find joy where you are, self-worth
will begin to develop and fear will go away. Abundance
then starts to flow in and cocreation begins to work. It's about
the attitude of the path you're on, not the one you wish you
were on.
Today is your last day, your first day, your only day -- what
are you going to do with it? Make each day count. You've heard
this before yet these are spiritual truths that often sound trite,
don't they? And that is because they are real! When you create
peace with what you have, then you begin to manifest motion and
change in your life. You're not stuck in a bad job, instead you
are simply "working it" for awhile to enhance the lives
of others around you and the job itself. Be aware that sometimes
the "bad job" becomes a miracle!
What if the energy instantly changed around your work situation?
Would you still want out? What if your peace and satisfaction
with something formerly intolerable got the attention of someone
who needs to engage a peaceful person in a better surrounding?
Do you understand how when you change energy, it actually brings
about cocreation of something else? Things aren't always what they seem.
We are always forming perceptions of what's bad or
good by our fears or attitudes within our own realities. But again
the truth is, everything that is before you has been sanctioned
by you and created by you. It often lies there, begging you to
work with it.
So however cool you think it might be to find the path that you
were meant to live, let me tell you it will never be as cool as
the assignment you have set up for yourself this very day. Trust
me, you love yourself beyond your wildest imagination and you would
never put yourself in a place, or on a path that isn't
considered the most sacred of sacreds.
Wow, you are soooo honored! Reverend angela
blessing:
indeed god is the one infinite spirit which fills all the universe
with himself alone, so that all is from him and in him, and there
is nothing that is outside. It is within this one presence that
i live, move and have my being. In this light then i see myself
and all others in the context of one divine reality.
Saturated with divine life, i am guided daily in balance and bliss.
The ceremony of this day blesses me in god's perfection. I stand
in freedom and empowerment of my spiritual connection. The world
is new for me each moment. I look at everything in my path as fresh,
radiant, and sparkling. The reservoir of my authentic god self, which
is without limits, sets about the joy of transcending
my visions of what i think life is supposed to look like.
I know it is possible for this higher power to play, to work, to
manifest through me now!
A lifetime of newness is my gift from the infinite today,
and i accept it with gratitude. In the perfect center of my being,
i honor, celebrate, and rejoice. Love is the fulfillment of the
law, and i am of its glorious expression as i release my word and
receive the bounty of a generous and giving god. And so it is.

- But
The
moment the "but" is stated, you have stepped
out of soul! - rev. Angela
BLESSING:
the one divine life is ever creating more out of its unlimited
potential for good. Its magnificent expression is limitless possibility
and abundance. I am just one of its desires unfolding from the
heart of creation. I am one with a point of reference in the divine
mind that knows no limitations. The perspective of the one thinker
that just becomes the thought of unlimited possibilities.
This moment in eternal mind that is being created with words through
the letters on this page is absolutely being fulfilled here and
now. I honor and know that heart-based intentions are the framework
for manifesting the desire at hand so i pause and magnetize the
power of universal presence into being through breath and thought. In
this and in every moment i realize the merging of cause and effect that
leads to positive, life-enriching experiences. I actively
replace the word/concept of "but" with "and," for
i am infinite. And in this unforgettable moment of thinking it
allows me to transform into clarity, wisdom, and courage bringing
greater good to myself and to everyone in my life.
Holding more soul in my human perspective i graciously send
thanks to the heavens for bringing me to a frame of reference that
goes beyond that to which i am accustomed. I see my new thoughts
ascend and take root in the law of good where they bear fruit.
And so it is.

- Interior Illumination
There is
no better way to bring one to a knowledge of
himself than to lead him to a knowledge of the powers that
are lying dormant within his own soul. - ralph waldo trine
in order to uphold the highest wisdom we must have absolute confidence
in the divine guiding us. We must have an intimacy with the infinite
source itself. Thus when we can go directly to the inner
channels of intelligence and wisdom we are no longer slaves
to personalities, institutions, media or books. We should
always be open to suggestions of truth but there is no greater
guide than your own interior illumination. Browning recognized
that the "truth is within ourselves; it takes no rise
from outward things, whate'er you may believe. There is an inmost
centre in us all, where truth abides in fullness." in other
words, our only allegiance is to the voice of our own soul. This
is the interior guide. This is the light that lighteth every man
that cometh into the world. This is the voice of the higher self,
the voice of soul, the voice of god.
If we will but follow this voice of intuition, it will speak clearly
and plainly, until by and by it will be absolute and unerring in
its guidance. When we recognize that we are the individualized
power of infinite spirit back of all and that nothing outside of
this has any power at all then we enter upon the road to true education,
and all the mysteries that before were closed now reveal themselves.
This evolving from within, this evolving of what has been involved with
the infinite power brings wisdom.
Today let your practice be to only listen to yourself. Endeavor
to bring yourself to a true knowledge of your interior powers.
A custodian of eternal wisdom, reverend angela
BLESSING:
there is a divine sequence running throughout the universe. A
self-existent principle of life from which all else has come. The
spirit of this infinite life and power are then my life by nature
of divine inflow. I am the illustration of god itself creating,
working, and ruling through the agency of a human
life.
From what has gone before i know that in just the degree that
we come into a conscious realization of our oneness with the infinite
life, and open ourselves to this divine inflow, do we actualize
in ourselves its qualities, means, and powers. As i connect with
this source, i am nurtured and inspired, relaxed and happy. I revel
in the demonstration that i possess the spiritual magnificence
of the great one in each and every moment. I affirm to my own inner
illumination of this authority by claiming and using it as a guide
in my personal life. I know that as i explore every one of its
ideas greater abundance and enjoyment show up in my world.
I stand fully in awe of being god's idea in human form, containing
everything i need to live life fulfilled. I welcome freedom in
spirit and go forth being the divine self only i can be. And so
it is.

- Cosmic Update
The
earth is going through a unique experiment that has never
been attempted in any system of worlds. Never in the whole
of creation has a planet evolved at ascension speed with
conscious life upon it. Yet, here we are. Through our crown
chakras of enlightenment we volunteered to assist and return
all life here back to divine love and unity. The consequence
of such a decision is that we presently have to traverse
through some multifaceted energies and cleansing aspects
to purge the duality phenomenon and open up to the
pulsing fifth dimensional heart waves that are coming in.
A human being is a relatively simple creature as far as the universe
is concerned, but the process of stuffing a great big being such
as yourself into such a basic collection of organic material that
is ascending can feel a bit disconcerting at times. Most everyone
i have spoken with over the last ten days has been experiencing
some form of physical effect from the latest surge of
energy that came in. I was taken down with a headache for three
days over valentine weekend. Upon starting to assimilate
the energies i have gone in and out of those darn vertigo
spells that let me know i am being dimensionally stretched. Others
have taken in the frequencies by appearing to have a 24 or 48 hour
bug, or a multitude of other aches and pains. This new space also
has the ability to disturb your sleep, make you feel irritated,
frustrated, spacey, introverted, or confused. Whatever it has been
for you, the process has been intense, almost to the degree of
unmanageability.
We are literally being "gutted" out so that new monumental
energy can move in. And it is moving in all the way down to our
physical cells! We are cleansing, releasing and aligning at a great
depth. Anything you are embodying that holds you to the "old
earth" and old energy of a world soon to end has to go. The
physical cues are telling you that you are letting go of the old "you" who
suffered, had pain, struggled and was tired. With this removal
of our old roles and old identities and realities, we can now fully
connect to our soul path with much greater awareness.
These latest energies are very soul supportive. And as the soul
begins to take residence within your very cells it will become
apparent that you no longer have to "work on" anything.
The processing, waiting, accepting, understanding and "moving
through" will rapidly depart because soul leads a higher
vibrational way of life. This new soul directive energy vibrationally
matches like with like. Anything in your life that has not felt
good, or that has caused any discomfort or feelings of victimization
is now releasing.
How it will look today is that you will hear yourself saying, "no
more," "enough," and "no thank you" to
events and circumstances that do not serve you at the spiritual
level. All that you have spiritually valued now becomes
the integrity of your embodiment. You will demand and have the
laws of spiritual goodness working easily in your daily existence. Wishes
and intents will manifest as if by magic. You will live the law
of cause and effect consciously and creatively. You are more of "a
higher force" doing the legwork of divinity in physical form.
We are all weaving more of the eternal into our purpose and being.
I guess that is worth a three-day headache for me. What about you
all?
Divinity purging, reverend angela
BLESSING:
the designs of the infinite are magnificently displayed everywhere
i look. There is not a single place i rest my gaze that i do not
witness god's wondrous joy and wisdom unfolding before me. This
includes me ~ for i know i am a small facet of divinity's grace
residing in a physical vessel. An emissary of the beloved opening
every day to the all good that awaits.
The light of transformation is shinning upon my world. All that
expresses spirit's radiance has been elevated to a new biology
of embodiment. The cleansing and shifting of the "old" is
now complete. A new divine compliment has triumphed our realm.
I consciously associate all that i am with this new strong, unyielding
foundation of spirit. I activate this new awesome, curious energy
through intention. I receive its surging power and become the conductor
and catalyst of its presence firmly established here. Daily
i shift my perceptions to the higher realms of the new world and
willingly open to see new beauty around me. I marvel at how
easy it is to know that purposeful movement of consciousness creates
and that i am ascending up the spiral of awareness that leads to
the god self.
I trust the divine as it pushes everything into its new and appropriate
place. I live in each moment and i trust. This is an amazing time.
Powerful influences are readying the new world and i am blessed
to be here and enjoy the ride. And so it is.

- This Unique Moment
It
is time to remember who you are
by patricia diane cota-robles
you are a beloved child of god who is on earth during this unique
moment to cocreate the wonders of heaven on earth. You are an empowered
instrument of god. This inner knowing is opening your heart and
allowing your god self to increase the amount of divine light flowing
through your earthly body.
The increased influx of light flows into the physical plane and
enters the core of purity in every electron of precious life energy. The
light then pushes to the surface anything that conflicts with its
frequencies of harmony, love and balance. Unfortunately, as the
discordant frequencies of energy surface to be transmuted back
into light, they often create the illusion that things are getting
worse. People easily witness the surfacing negativity, but what
they don't see is the incredible light that is pushing the negativity
to the surface to be healed and transmuted. That phenomenon has
the effect of keeping people focused on the problem instead of
the solution.
When the focus of your attention is stuck on the negativity that
is coming up to be healed instead of the light of god that is pulsating
with all of the patterns of perfection and solutions contained
in the causal body of god, you empower and sustain the negative
things that are surfacing. Instead of eliminating the problems,
you actually intensify them. This creates the situations that make
you feel desperate, overwhelmed and hopeless.
People are so used to accepting the physical plane as their true
reality, that they have forgotten it is merely a reflection of
their consciousness. No matter how real your life challenges seem
or how entrapped you are in the grip of poverty, disease, low self-esteem,
loveless relationships, hatred, corruption, ignorance, war, etcetera,
those distorted expressions of life can only be maintained in your
life if you sustain them through your thoughts, words, actions,
feelings and beliefs. If you choose to empower the light and all
of the patterns of perfection contained in that light instead of
choosing to empower the things that cause your pain and suffering,
your earthly experiences will be transformed in the twinkling
of an eye.
Never has there been a more opportune time for you to change your
course of direction. Never has humanity received more support from
the heavenly realms than we are receiving at this moment. Focus
on fulfilling your dreams, and miracles will happen.
BLESSING:
There is only one life - that life is
god's life. It is the primary energy of the universe. It is the
holy place of reverence for all living things and it flows through
me, making me its pattern of god's grace in the circle of life.
The beauty of this great planet is glorious, and i am blessed to
be part of such a magnificent world.
God implants every beloved human being with a desire for love,
peace, and unity. These are the treasures of self that now come
forth and blooms into fullness of being for every soul. I am at
peace when i acknowledge and nurture my oneness with everything
and everyone. I develop peace in my heart, and it radiates out
to the world as love, compassion, and harmony.
I know love and harmony with all. My inner peace ripples out to
affect all others throughout the world; at a result, there is a
new teaching of peace that blankets the earth. With a heart filled
with gratitude and thanksgiving, i now release my word to see this
empowerment realized. And so it is.

- New Life Form
You
are made up of molecules of divinity
are you feeling your new identity yet? Are you ready to see the
new form? To expose the leaves of your new found being? Do not
worry if during this transitional time that you are confused, or
filled with a sense of unknowingness because essentially we all
are in the space of no identity. There is only a being filling
up the space of what used to be you – a being wondering what
has happened to the old you.
The good news is now you no longer have the old you. The life
force energies now enveloping the planet are constructing the molecules
of divinity that will be the building blocks of the co-creator
known as you! This alone will stimulate and increase the vibration
of your new physical being to create a new emanation of divinity.
You will now seek this new unlimitedness in all that you see and
touch each day. The soul will now bring its point of view and slip
it into your awareness. Soul is destroying the limited form known
as you. It is the great cultivator, the great eliminator of what
was. Spirit delivering us our souls is the destructive energy that
is rearranging all you have known; all you have been up unto this
moment.
For today just step into the nowness that is resurrecting and
beautifying the world and the space that you inhabit. Look into
the mirror, straight into your eyes, and see the fascination of
your soul. Know that you are now following your soul's instructions
first and that it is now equal with the personality
in the guidance of affairs around you. This is the new you that
is blossoming into a vibration of purity as the unfoldment of ascension
occurs on all levels and dimensions of life.
And as you become accustomed to being the co-creator of your being,
look at others and see them in the same light. See their souls
doing what you have already done. Give them the respect and the
space to peel away just as you have done. Do not direct their journey,
but simply encourage them to take the steps on their journey. Just
by living in your own center of power, you will help many
find the truth.
I so love this particular time and space, don't you?
Reverend angela
BLESSING: i know that the one beloved source of all life cocoons each part
and particle within its realm with love. This signature is woven
around and within us, so close and intimate with each that we hardly
notice its presence yet we feel its holy communion. I allow this
wave of divine love to ignite the new pathways of heart, mind,
soul, and spirit and body as one.
Being transformed within this cocoon of divine heart i experience
a joyful upliftment and soft holding of all parts of self -- the
soul, the body, the mind, the heart, and the spirit are
discovering the conscious remembrance of my inherent empowerment,
creativity, and freedom. By divine decree in the name of my god
presence, and through the laws of grace, forgiveness and divinity
i now dissolve all agreements i may have made across
time, space and all dimension in relation to rejecting the light,
love, and power of god. Mutating within a bubble of warm love
i activate the truth of the omnipresence of the divine and all
distortion purifies in each meridian, cell, energybody, chakra
and portal of soul. The manifestation of the resolution of
spirit through a physical life on earth is nearly complete. What
a journey to embrace!
With great excitement and perfect trust i give thanks for
the goodness of god that is happening within and through me at
this time. I am becoming the newly resurrected temple of light
and emissary of love presently walking upon terra christos. And so
it is.
