A Woman's Space: Spirituality

Walking In Ordered Steps

Fri, 18 Jul 2008 00:34:16 GMT

Ordered steps are ones made in the confidence of faith.

There is no doubt that wherever you end up on the journey~it is the right place for you to be.

I can bear witness to this truth in my own life. Just trusting and believing that in the end~it will work out and be alright!

This is my daily desire in life. To step out on faith and be lead by the Holy Spirit to the place that God desires for me to be.

There is Peace in the Valley

Peace.

That sense of well being that fills our spirits.

Peace.

That balance that comes during trying times and remains

when that moment has ended.

The birds are singing praises. Even though it is that dark hour before the dawn. They are thankful to be alive. Willing to use their gifts to bless the earth once again.

I cannot help but to wonder, would I be willing to use my gifts? Would I be willing to be blessing ~even in the darkest moments of time?

Would I be willing to give up praise without hesistation or thought about what lies ahead on this day?

Can I shine my love light and let it project joy?

I hope so.

Let the Spiritual Pregnancy Begin!

I have made steps in the right direction!

A place to nestle into and let my spiritual embryo grow and develop.

Making my way to that space was quite a journey! One that made me get intouch with my spitirual kinsfolks, Wisdom and Knowledge. Their presence made the trek endurable.

Now I can go forth and make plans that are going to help substain and nurture my idea.

Taking A Leap Of Faith( With A Safe Landing Plan In Mind)

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 16:55:46 GMT

I woke up this a.m. with a renewed sense of my spirit ed woman /self.

The reason I feel this way is due to the vision that is opening up inside of my life. It greeted me this morning. And I like what it has done to my psyche.

It feels like this is my spiritual child to nurture from this moment until its birth.

The space is being made within my mind to house this child. To take time to examine the details necessary to help it grow and develop. Bringing it into living infancy is the first part of the plan.

A Woman's Space

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 03:40:54 GMT

Seeds of change have begun to root and sprout. It is a season of growth in my life. a time to consider what direction will take me to where I want to go.

It is funny how growth and development never really stop until the life we are living up under the sun is completed.

A woman's space is fertile grounds. It has to be to conceive life, support it and then birth to whatever manner of vision is meant to become reality.

I am purging this week. Emptying myself of the menal burden that comes from making hasty choices. Redesigning my inner vision because I really want it to become my reality.

Looking past this moment into the future to see where my energy will flourish and produce life.

Make overs are a necessary outcome of imgination

Taking A Moment For The Truth

Fri, 07 Dec 2007 02:52:46 GMT

It has been another challenging day for me. I have been working on getting my personal atttitude adjusted. One of the methods that I have been applying is meditation. Thinking on things that are beautiful and beyond the moment that is now.

Facing truth is a task that we all have to perform. It is either voluntary or by force. It will tell whatever the as~it~really~story. Whether we want to hear it or not~that is another matter. I have learned that it is better to listen the first time around. Even when listening envokes discomfort~it is better than ignoring what is being relayed.

I have embraced a painful level of truth today. One that I needed to grasp ahold to. Holding it close to my thoughts made the impact bearable. Now the next step is required. That step is to act upon it. To do more than just nod in agreement over what was revealed means action. To move like I have the confidence of faith working inside of my thoughts.

That is where I am in the process of growth.

Lifting Up My Spirit

Tue, 04 Dec 2007 19:10:58 GMT

There are times when I need to experience a spiritual uplift. The need to feel relief from the weight of just living life during difficult times. I find that the best way for me to experience that relief is to sit down and write until clarity comes.

Many people would find this method one that would not suit their style of release. Taking time to collect their thoughts and put them into visible words is not how they opt to handle situations. I find that this is a way for me to discover what is really on my mind.

I am currently redefining myself as an individual woman. For the past seven months I have been at home. A luxury for sure. I left my job in May~willingly with the intention of destressing myself totally. I had just really begun to feel like my decision was a prime choice. Then trouble had to show up at my door. Trying to disturb my peace of mind. I know how to resist that sense of dispair that comes during difficult times. Putting up the resistance canbe a draining experience. Replenishing my spirit is a lifestyle choice prescribed by the Master Physician.

That is what motivates me to write. Frequently for periods of time. Using words in a blended mixture to communicate what is on the inside of my thoughts. This was my M.O. before I ever signed up on any social network. I still use my journals to record what is too private for unknown eyes to view. This is a public medium that encourages participation by everyone. I accept that as fact. I also remember that there are individuals who believe that their power to comment is often stronger than it really is.

Racism, sexism, age bias, it is every where on the inter-net. I have read comments that have made me cringe starting with the first word of the post. I have had the annoying experience of trolls roaming through my spaces. Trying to inflict their particular brand of stupidity onto me. That has proven not to be the outcome that they had anticipated. I have and will fight back. Using words to push their overt agressive behavior away from me. Cowering up under their onslaught is not how I choose to handle things. It is that very response that they thrieve off of. Giving them that sense of pleasure is not my choice of actions. I will have the pleasure of defense. Which I have discovered is the offensive to raise in those situations.

I have not had to do battle for awhile. The lull is definitely appreciated by me. I am not complaining about the absence of malice. I actually welcome it~with wide open thoughts. But like any seasoned warrior knows~the threat of reapperance is always present.

But that is not the real focal point of this entry. I am in need of an uplift. Before I actually hit feeling down. That is why I sat down at my keyboard. To write myself happy. To remember that this is just one moment in life. It is in the process of passing even while I type words onto the screen of my notebook.

Remembering this makes a sigh of relief escape from inside of my thoughts.
