Spirit Failure
There is no denial that I often find myself in tears, baptize from the mist of life's trials and tribulations. We all have seasons where we are force to weather the storm and therefore we find ourselves exercising our spiritual gifts more than ever (whether we know it or not). Our perception, intuition, will, imagination, memory, and faith , when properly developed and applied, will give us the strength needed to reach our highest potential in life. I term these attributes as gifts because that is what they truly are. If we submit any of these gifts to anyone, a part of us dies. When our closest friends and family members have estranged from us and they are no longer available to help us along our path, it is up to us to dwell within and utilize these intangible powers.
"How many of us can honestly say this week we are going to superset perception and faith or have a killer intuition day? It sounds ridiculous! But in reality each of these spiritual gifts allow us to create the life we love."
Often, many people fail to rise above the resistance during these challenging times because they are spiritually weak and have never exercised any of the faculties of the spirit! How many of us can honestly say this week we are going to superset perception and faith or have a killer intuition day? It sounds ridiculous! But in reality each of these spiritual gifts allow us to create the life we love. Our imagination alone can and provide infinite answers to the opportunities ( I prefer to use to the term opportunity instead of problem) that are presented to us day by. Over the past year there has been countless times where I have witnessed people blocking their own blessings unintentionally because they lack will power or didn't have the ability to change their perspective. Thinking back in retrospect, a lot of my blessings appeared in the midst of circumstances that I originally was perceiving as failure. Having the ability to change your perspective will shed limiting beliefs that hold us back. Did you know that our reason gives us the ability to choose the images we hold in our mind and create our results? Naturally, people rarely, if ever, use these faculties. Even when most do, they use them for the opposite in which they were intended for : FEAR.

I've never known anyone who said, "I love problems," but I've known many who have admitted that their greatest gains came in the middle of their pain. Many people learn only from the school of hard knocks. Difficult experiences teach them lessons "the hard way," and they change-- sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. The lessons are random and difficult. It's much better to plan your growth intentionally. You decide where you need or want to grow, you choose what you will learn, and you follow through with discipline going at a pace you set. Therefore, when you are faced with problems they really do appear as opportunities. Every time they will become opportunities to create joyful relationships, optimal health (what created you and I knows no sickness!!!) , an increase in finances, a more prosperous career, and whatever else you truly desire.
Starting now, take 10 minutes out of your busy day and analyze how effective you have been utilizing your spiritual gifts throughout your day. No matter how minor the "opportunities" may seem, now is the perfect time to intentionally exercise! Therefore, the next time you are faced with major opportunities your spiritual gifts will allow you to successful take full advantage. What may appear as miracles to most, you will know it is because of the work and effort you put forth! Exercise your memory until your tired of memorizing. Imagine circumstances and conditions as you truly want them to be. Have the will power to do little things in a perfect way. Remember, the stronger we are, the more we will be able to conquer. Everything works from the higher to the lower; from the spirit to the physical. Today, turn pain into joy, lead into gold.
