It’s time to shine!

One of the things that used to bother me tremendously was I felt that I was holding myself back.  I was resistant and reluctant to follow inspiration.  

If we don’t use our gifts and talents do we lose them?  

Or do they just lay dormant?  

Certainly we’ll be missing wonderful and fulfilling opportunities to be an authentic, inspiring and healing presence in the world if we don’t shine our light.

Why keep our light under a bushel?

We all have an interesting and unique relationship to our possessions, including our gifts and talents. 

In THE PATHWAY OF ROSES, Christian D. Larson wrote, “Every individual is entitled to all the riches of the spiritual kingdom, and in addition, to the possession of as many things … as he can possibly appreciate and use in the enrichment of all the realms of his own entire existence. But before he can secure all these things, he must cause his personal nature and his spiritual nature to live together as one … the first essential is to make the best use possible of everything that we may possess now.”

How do we cause our personal nature and our spiritual nature to live together as one?  For me, it’s ALL about staying focused on making loving choices.  When I’m focused on making loving choices I’m aligned with Spirit and I’m not judging, not creating difficulties for myself and others.

Today I choose to be willing to use what I have.  What Spirit has given me.

So many people want more, but they don’t appreciate and make use of what they already have. 

Would we even want more if we truly recognized what we have?

 Let’s all be willing to look at ourselves from a Divine perspective.  

Let’s look at things from a higher, spiritual perspective:

Would you be willing to give to someone more riches and rewards if they didn’t appreciate and make use of the ones they had?  Wouldn’t that be a waste? 

Do you have the ability to be kind?  Do you have the ability to forgive?  Are you a good listener? Do you have an opportunity to be generous or helpful?  Go for it!

Let’s use the opportunities we have to extend Love and make our life more fully loving!

Let’s go for it!

Can you think of a gift or talent that you have that you’re letting lay dormant?  What is it?
