I have been searching, looking for a deep connection with God since FOREVER!
Maybe, I was a lonely child…
Maybe, I felt powerless around the crazy events of my life…
Maybe, I just ALWAYS knew there was more, so much more to our existence on this planet than just what met the eye…
Whatever…
I just knew I longed for intimacy with God.
To be connected to something much bigger than just I.
And I still long to go ever deeper…
Beyond rules, regulations, traditions that are just man’s way of relating to something beyond their own understanding and also, for some men, religion becomes a form of control. How else can you keep people toeing the party line except to feed them fear of punishment if they step out of line or a glorious reward if they don’t?
We see the effects of this nonsense in the world we live in…
People willing to do anything to ensure that the next life is glorious…
But what of this life?
What of now?
I sometimes wonder how many people would walk away from religious institutions if they suddenly realised that there was no hell to be afraid of and no heaven to look forward to.
Would they still care for relationship with Spirit?
(Right now, you are creating heaven and hell for yourself… You don’t need to wait until you die!)
I still want intimacy…
I still choose connection…
And I choose to strip away every man-made structure that gets in the way of my relationship with Spirit.
It is scary to do this as I too was brought up on a diet of fear and every so often, I forget to just go straight to Source and find out what He is saying to me.
And that is where my power lies…
In connection.
That is where your power lies too…
In connection.
I went through a phase where I felt that being spiritual made me weak…
You are supposed to speak in soft tones when you are spiritual 😀
And I don’t always speak softly!
You are supposed to sit on your awesome arse waiting for salvation to come find you when you are spiritual
And I can be fierce, pushing every door in my path, seeking out EVERYTHING NOW, not later…
You are supposed to ‘wait on the Lord’ when you are spiritual…
And like I said, I want EVERYTHING NOW, not later!!!!
I was scared of mentioning Spirit / God in business as people might think I am loopy…
And I cared too much what others thought of me…
Also, I really don’t want to be associated with some spiritual peeps because they freaking ARE loopy and weird and just plain ineffective as they sit on their awesome arses waiting for their prince to come!
And I got scared that if I made too much of my spirituality then as a coach, I just might attract only those looking for a spiritual magic bullet!
All in all, I felt I had to hide that part of me…
But my problem was that I KNEW that the power to create wealth comes from connection and deliberate action…
And the ones I am here to support need to KNOW that…
Because they hold themselves back because they think that to live out their big vision – the impact AND the wealth – is to forego any relationship with God but that is just religion talking…
Your vision is your permission.
You have that big idea because you are EXACTLY the person to make it happen!
It would also benefit you to be in real connection to the ONE who planted the vision within you, don’t you think?
Not because you will be punished if you don’t…
But simply because you want to!
You know there is more, so much more to you than is currently showing up in this unconnected version of you…
So why the heck not tap into that power that is fully and freely available to you?
Why not give up the need to toe party lines that have not fit in a long time?
Be honest! You don’t feel the evidence of what ‘they’ said you would feel…
You still feel empty inside, even though you have been jumping through the hoops for so long now…
I know this, leader, because I jumped through many a hoop in the period where I was distracted from my deep connection with Source. I had to walk away for a season from all the religious institutions in order to find myself again and I could only find myself in Spirit because you and I know, we are incomplete without the connection.
Yes, you can live a good enough life without acknowledging connection…
And people do…
In fact, a lot of non-spiritual people seem to fare better than spiritual people do because they are not bound up in all the religious nonsense.
And no, this is not a call to leave all religious institutions right now! Of course not, I am still awesomely Christian.
However, it is a call to connect again with love…
Pure, unfiltered love…
Without all the limits and rules and man-made, limiting traditions and laws…
Because it is from that place of being connected with pure love, that you are MOST powerful!
It is easy to be brave when you KNOW you are loved…
It is easy to handle whatever when you KNOW you are loved…
It is easy to follow your intuition with no fear of what others will think of you when you KNOW you are loved…
It is easy to make decisions when you know that you are loved and that you are being taken care of and no mistake is final…
It is easy to dance with fear when you know it is not real and that you are loved…
It is easy to deliberately design your life when you realise that you are loved and that your vision is your permission…
Leader, get connected…
Learn how to tap into Spirit powerfully…
Unlimited wisdom, understanding AND love is found in connection…
And it is a choice.
You will not go to hell if you choose to be without connection…
But it just makes no sense to be apart from the One who spoke you into life!
Make real connection with Source a priority as you seek to live a deliberately designed life of abundance, fulfilment and freedom.
