"Grace fills empty spaces, but it can only enter where there is a void to receive it, and it is Grace itself that makes this void."
- Simone Weil
Grace is a gift. It meets us where we are, but it does not leave us where it found us. All of these statements really touch something inside of my soul because I know what it is to be BLESSED by God's Grace. It can be overwhelming and very humbling all at the same time. We must remember that Grace is ours and it is not something that we grow in to. You trust in Grace because you trust in HIM and you trust in HIM when you expand your personal and spiritual awareness.
With the expansion of awareness we understand that who we are is the greatest gift we can give to others. Your AUTHENTICITY is what enriches the lives of those around you. It is your responsibility first and foremost to be true to yourself before you can be true to others.
Grace brings a multitude of things to our lives. Grace can bring humility, gratitude, love and even devotion. Grace can bring us to a place in which we look to make changes in our lives and even the lives of those around us.
God's Grace is everlasting and is something that is given to us whether we deserve it or not. HIS Grace inspires us and provides us with a level of hope and encouragement that fulfills us more than any Human ever could.

THE POWER OF BELIEVING
"A thought is a Cosmic Order waiting to happen."
- Stephen Richards
As a man thinketh so shall it be... What you believe you manifest in your life. You don't believe me? Just think about it. The power of what you believe and what you speak is crucial with regard to the life you manifest. If you constantly speak of always being broke, even when you have money it will never be enough because you have spoken into existence a life that is unfulfilled financially. What and how you think is also a key part in the Law of Attraction.
It is often said that you attract what you are. Do you believe that? Do you believe that the energy you set forth into the Universe comes back to you? Do you believe in Karma, let alone the Law Of Attraction? I am a FIRM BELIEVER in Karma. I have seen it play out in my own life. And Karma isn't always immediate, but trust me when I say that when it happens you will know. It will be like that moment when the light bulb comes on. That "AH HA" moment.
As you reflect on the previous paragraphs I want you to understand how powerful it is to BELIEVE in yourself and your DESIRES. The Energy of Attraction is most powerful when your desires are what is best for yourself and those around you.
Please know and understand that the information and wisdom that I am paying forward was provided to me through a recent 21 day Meditation I went through with Deepak Chopra. Not only did this experience broaden my awareness, but it also reinforced many of the things I have already learned but needed to be reminded of. Life has pulled me away from some of the things that I once held has a priority in my Personal Wellness. Now that life has begun to shift courses for me, I am now in a position to re-shift and re-focus my own priorities.
Life will take us on many paths, some chosen and some not. Whatever the journey, it is important that we understand, acknowledge, accept, and respect the path. In order for us to do this we must learn to Trust The Process. We have to trust that God will handle ALL the details of manifesting our desires. With out that level of trust we will continue to get in our own way.

CREATING AND LIVING IN PEACE
"Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of creative alternatives for responding to conflict"
- Dorothy Thompson
At some point and time in our lives we all seek PEACE. For whatever reason there comes a time and a place where the noise and chaos around us has become or is becoming too much and we just need a moment of silence. Some type of SERENITY and CALM to what can appear to be a never-ending STORM.
I've been experiencing that storm lately and in need of that serenity and place of INNER PEACE. The solitude to appreciate the silence while in a room full of noise. In one of my previous blogs I spoke about how I had been focusing more on my ability and focus towards meditation. Deepak Chopra made a very profound statement with regard to what PEACE really is......"Peace is the space where BEING is more important than DOING"....
What that means is that BEING AT PEACE means being in a place of POWER and KNOWING. In this STATE your BEING is more important than your DOING. BEING true to your INNER SELF is coincidently the most AUTHENTIC thing that you can DO. Nothing is more humble and simple than BEING who you are.
I know this sounds easier said than done because most often we find ourselves living the lives that have been approved by those around us. That isn't AUTHENTIC LIVING. In those moments we are simply EXISTING... fulfilling a life that has been MANIFESTED through the DESIRES OF OTHERS. No where in that choice are we BEING TRUE to who we are. And because of that we will never be FULFILLED.
It is important that WE KNOW and UNDERSTAND that WHO WE ARE is enough. We have everything we need within us to accomplish our dreams and to BE AT PEACE.

BEING FLEXIBLE
Well Happy Holidays to you all. I hope that this entry reaches all those that read in good spirits. It has been quite a year and it is quickly coming to an end. I can't believe that it is already December. This evening I want to touch on FLEXIBILITY and the POWER of FLEXIBILITY.
I am really big on ENERGY and the POWER OF KARMA. I believe that WHAT YOU PUT OUT YOU GET BACK! I believe that YOUR DEEPEST DESIRES CAN BE FULFILLED if you believe that they can and if you move towards those desires. The problem that many of us face is that we have desires that we don't truly invest in nor believe. We don't have FAITH that if we work towards achieving our DESIRES the UNIVERSE (GOD) will supply us with all the things that we need to fulfill those desires. FAITH WITHOUT WORK IS DEAD!! There is POWER in that very statement. It is important that we CANNOT and DO NOT sit around and just DREAM, HOPE, and WISH. We must move with purpose and be flexible and open.
I know some of you may wonder what I mean when I say be FLEXIBLE and OPEN. Well let me explain. There is a saying.... "If you ever wanna hear God laugh, tell him your plans"....We always have an idea or way we want our lives to be. We have a plan or a process. We expect that if we take specific steps there will be a specific outcome. And most often when we don't get the specific response and or specific outcome we are disappointed or feel defeated. That is where the problem begins.
Although, we may have our own agenda or vision of how we may want things to be and or manifest, the UNIVERSE (GOD) doesn't work that way. Once we speak something in existence or plant a seed, it is important that we remain open to THE RETURN. SHIT HAPPENS and not always the way we plan it. Being FLEXIBLE allows for endless possibilities. Like they say... "There is more than one way to skin a cat."
Life will come with many unexpected turns, but our ability to adapt and adjust is what separates us. Have FAITH in yourself, INVEST in yourself, BELIEVE in the possibilities, and DO WORK!!!
