By now you’re probably aware that your life is a spiritual journey of awakening to realize your true nature as being One with the One. However distracted we get, our path is always one of purification.

What’s important to understand about purification is that we’re not becoming more pure. We’re already pure, perfect, pristine, but we’ve come to BELIEVE that we’re not. So the purification is for our stinking thinking, not who, or what we are. When we do that, then our magnificence is revealed – our Beauty shines forth. Happiness is what we are.

In order to reveal our natural state of pristine awareness and purity of being we must shed all the false identity garments we’ve picked up, put on and valued along the way. We’ve convinced ourselves that the false is valuable and the true, the Real, isn’t valuable.

Joel Goldsmith, the brilliant mystic who has inspired me so much, in his book, The Thunder of Silence wrote a beautiful prayer, “Reveal Yourself, Father, show me Your will. Never again will I dishonor You by trying to tell You what I need and then attempt to coerce You into delivering it.”

Let’s all release the habits of begging God for stuff. Let’s instead, be grateful for our God nature, value that and seek the Kingdom first.

Many of the attitudes, beliefs and habits that human beings value and treasure are actually intensely limiting and suffocating. The thoughts of lack and attack, the beliefs in limitation and separation cause such suffering in our human experience. Most are built upon judgments and opinions that will ultimately reveal themselves to be the self-sabotage that they are.

One of the most detrimental and distracting thoughts we share is that manifesting stuff will actually make us happy.

There’s a popular illusion that somehow being able to be a great manifestor means you’re very spiritual. The most awakened and aware people I know of lead humble lives and have a remarkable sense of humility – and some are wealthy. They have no interest in accumulating things, but rather they cultivate a heart of gold, a mind that is as clear and strong as a diamond. These are the things that they can take with them from this life to the next. These are the things that are a great comfort in the darkness of night.

The person who is awakening no longer prays for things. The Kingdom is within, know this and all else will be added unto you in your awareness and you will not want for things.

You ARE the Kingdom, when you know this, you won’t need to ask God to give you the goods because you will know exactly what and where the good is. The Kingdom is within.

Today, I weed my garden and reveal God’s goodness as my very life.

Join me NEXT Saturday, May 17 for a WORKSHOP Why Can’t I Be Happy?  

My Mayl Deep Dive Workshop topic is Why Can’t I Be Happy?   Joy is our natural state, yet, I’ve talked with countless spiritual students who have been on this path for decades who struggle because they can’t seem to find a true happiness, a fundamental Joy.  In my experience, when we truly live the teachings of A Course in Miracles then Peace is revealed, and happiness is its constant companion.  In this workshop I’ll share tips and tools that really work increase your happiness immediately.  We don’t have to wait until the world lines up the way we’d like it to in order to experience more happiness.  Our happiness does not come from the world and it never will.  Click now to register.

We’ll anchor the Highest Vision for our life and let go of limiting habits and beliefs. The mountains alone are worth the trip! Let’s play!  Click here for more info!

LATEST ACIM PODCAST EPISODE: my topic is The Secret to True Prayer. There is a secret to true prayer, that’s so simple people don’t realize how healing and effective it is. True prayer isn’t about asking for things but about remembering that we already have everything we need in God and diving deeply into that knowing. In this week’s episode, drawing from The Song of Prayer, I unpacked the heart of true prayer as an offering, a letting go, a deep resting into Love itself. I shared my living experience of transformation, shedding the old, and embracing true prayer. True Prayer has healed my mind and transformed my life. It is a power tool!
