Silly Putty of the Soul...Using Your Spiritual Toolbox

Within your own being you have been given all of the tools necessary to master your life.  This is both God's  gift and promise.  Along with these spiritual tools you have also been given something called 'free will'.  The freedom to make your own life choices makes you responsible for your own life and it's outcome.  The spiritual tools are yours to use at any time but how and when you use them is completely up to you.  There are two important questions that come immediately to mind.  What is in my 'Spiritual Toolbox'?  How do I use my 'spiritual tools'?

 In your Spiritual Toolbox you will find what is necessary to learn how to forgive and let go, how to be loved, loving and lovable, how to express God qualities toward others or sacred service and the true value of both giving and receiving.  The first step in using the tools in your Spiritual Toolbox is to live a life of gratitude.  Appreciate the God qualities in yourself so that you can appreciate them in others.

Within your spiritual toolbox you will find charity.  Charity is the means by which we express to others those God qualities that will bless and heal mankind.  They include kindness, patience, goodness, virtue, temperance, tolerance and faith.  Extending these loving qualities to others is an integral part of God's plan.  The realization that the things that others do and say are not the things that can affect your life makes charity a natural choice.  It is always your choice to let others words or actions disturb your peace.  It is easy to feel charity (love and compassion) toward others when you fully understand that the things they say and do cannot destroy your peace.

It is all in your own thought pattern.  If you let the actions or words of others you give them power in your life.  To avoid this it is necessary to use your spiritual tools.  

Ways to utilize your spiritual tools are through meditation or prayer, in the stillness or by calling on the guidance of your angels.  Practicing love, patience, kindness, forgiveness, tolerance and the like, puts you in tune with the frequency of your higher self.  Within your soul you will find peace and in your heart you will find contentment.   No one and no thing can take your peace from you unless you allow it to happen by your own thought patterns.


To use the tools in your spiritual toolbox begin with a simple prayer or affirmation.  For instance, "All is Well!"  Let the words come from your intention to do good, to follow God's Word and then let the words you speak resonate in your soul.  Listen to any messages that come to you or just relax in the peacefulness that happens when your mind, body and soul are in harmony.  

  

 An affirmation for 'Spiritual Tools' might be, "My intentions are for good and I am using my spiritual tools. All is well."

Silly Putty of the Soul...Bad Habits Are Meant To Be Broken

The big question is, "How, how do I turn myself around.?" Here is a very excellent article I found that is very helpful.  Please check it out. The Habit Change Cheatsheet : 29 Ways to Successfully Ingrain a Behavior This is from the article, "The simple steps of habit change : 1. Write down your plan . 2. Identify your triggers and replacement habits . 3. Focus on doing the replacement habits every single time the triggers happen, for about 30 days." Everything I found on the Internet seems to agree with these three steps so there must be merit in this.  Breaking strongholds in your life is not an easy task.  First you need to make up your mind that you want to make the effort to break the habit.  It is all about choice after all.  Habits are comfortable repeated actions that we consider our norm.  We all create habits, either good or bad.  Its the bad ones that should get attention if we really want things to change.  Einstein says th...

Silly Putty of the Soul...Being in Harmony with Ourselves

Image
As a child, my mother used to quote this poem to me on a regular basis.  It has always stayed with me and is one of my favorite sayings.  "Oh what a dangerous web we weave when we first practice to deceive."  It was my mother's way of teaching me not to tell lies.  Now many, many years later it comes to me that in order to avoid telling lies it is essential to avoid telling yourself lies.   Ghandi is quoted saying, "Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony."  Unfortunately, many of us have a tendency to fight with ourself, in effect becoming our own worst enemy.  To be in harmony with yourself is about being in harmony with who you are.    The minute you look at others who think, operate and live differently than yourself, you are judging who and what you are.  Judging yourself will put you out of balance.  Each of us is a unique individual who has different talents...

Silently Sending Love

Image
Love is one of the few things in life that gets greater the more you give it away.  In fact, without love there just is no life. If you live your life in a constant state of anger, greed, self-indulgence then you are not really living.  In truth, everyone needs a little love, a random act of kindness, a tender thought.  Each of God's creations have one thing in common.  All things were created by God, Divine Mind.  Being that God IS Love, then all things were created through Love.  We therefore all have the spirit of God within us and that is comprised of love.  Loving is then a natural state of being and something that needs to be shared.   It does not matter if you say something to someone but as you pass by another person you can always send them a silent message, a blessing of love straight from your heart to theirs.  Love is a high vibration and as you send it out you are sending out a strong vibration that will make a dif...
