"OUT OF THE DARKNESS" POST 101

What does it mean to be spiritually bankrupt?  Being an overly pessimistic person who chases happiness through material things and is very heavily led by ego.  At certain times in my life, I can certainly remember even the slightest problem could seem to become overwhelming, continuously worsening over time, with more trauma or issues adding to my already highly negative thought patterns.  I had such a negative mindset, everything, and I do mean everything, just seemed to be devastating to me.  I held on to every little thing, during those times, and let them grow inside my negative mind, until I would blow up when it all became too much.  This is why the Divine wants us to heal from the inside out.  I do not let things bother me like I used to.  I just let it roll right off my back, pick myself up, and keep on going.  This does not mean I do not have things bother me;  I just do not allow it to control my thoughts anymore.

Choose the right type of people to associate with for a good starting point.  If you hang with pessimistic people, you will certainly have a time keeping yourself thinking positively. Associate with true positive people who love God and abide by God's laws.  Do not criticize or harm those who want closeness with the Divine.  There is most certainly a void within every person which can only be filled by being restored in fellowship with Him.  

Undergoing trauma such as losing material things are connected to the depth of the ego that needs healing.  It does not actually have a connection to the awakening process itself. You could lose things or become spiritually bankrupt without ever becoming spiritually awakened.  The same is true that you can awaken spiritually without ever losing any material goods or being bankrupt spiritually.  However, trauma can be a catalyst for introspection and people will start to look at themselves in a deeper way.  

But too, deep suffering is not the only means to this.  A person could also become deeply curious about the truth and curious about themselves and wonder who they truly are.

Karmic debt is something we owe ourselves...WE ARE OUR OWN KARMA.  Karma is not something outside ourselves.  Karma means 'imprint' and every action we take, both inner and outer,  creates some kind of an imprint within us.  These imprints make us who we are; so we ARE our karma.  An imprint can lie dormant for lifetimes but at some point it will surface and will draw certain people and situations that match a particular imprint within you.  Such as an imprint of kindness draws more kindness to you.  If there is an imprint of negativity, selfishness or harm it draws the same to you; this is what karmic debt is.  We will magnetically draw situations that will trigger our imprints, whether it is with happiness or unhappiness, until we attain enlightenment.  At that point, our karmic imprints will fall off of us as leaves fall from a tree.  

There are three spiritual reasons for anything we have in our lives:

(But do not want to experience from the ego's perspective)

1.  Karma

2.  Destiny (Soul planned                                 between lifetimes)

3.  Use or Misuse of free will

                   (By someone else)

Spiritual blockages are created by the residue of heavy emotions, past traumas or pain, which are stuck in your energetic body.  You can realize then, just what an effect this can have on someone who is not healed of all the past emotions and pain.  That's why these imprints have to be brought to the surface, healed and released.  Only then, can you truly move forward in your truth.

I hope this has helped you better understand how karma works within our lives.

Peace and Love,

💞🕊

In a spiritual context, judgment refers to a divine evaluation of a person's deeds that lead to consequences after their life ends, carried over into their next life or consequences within a spiritual rebirth commonly referred to as karma.  I never really believed that karma was a real thing, but once I went through my initial awakening, I learned very quickly that our divine universe does most certainly hand out karma for every decision, every choice we make, whether good or bad.  No one escapes it. Spiritual decernment is akin to

spiritual judgment as it is the ability to decern and understand the true nature of our reality; separating truth from falsehood, and recognizing the divine within oneself and others.  Discernment is a process of self-reflection, introspection and understanding the consequences of one's actions.  

A judgmental person is one with 

a tendency to form opinions without having all the information or understanding of a situation.  This can lead to projecting insecurities onto others.  No matter how you look at it,  it can form walls of separation between people because of the trauma.  The person on the receiving end of an attack on their character,  they can either react and lash out with anger or they can act in a more Godly manner and walk away with their head held high.  You see, there will always be people that make it their goal in life to make everyone else miserable.  They go out of their way and talk their talk and spread their rumors.  The reason for it at its core, is they could be jealous of that other person for some reason or have been hurt over something.  It is very true that hurt people hurt other people.  They are likely to express negative opinions of others focusing on their flaws and imperfections.  Their judgment is always rooted in their own insecurities or beliefs rather than a genuine understanding of the situation.  I learned a long time ago, never take something as truth when it has come from the mouth of others.  If you want to know something, go straight to the source.  Judgmental individuals struggle to see something from a different perspective or understand the reasons behind someone else's actions.  

Assumptions can cause great difficulty.  Assumptions such as considering a person lazy because they were late to work, when they may have had some kind of emergency come up, or quickly judging someone's character based maybe on a single incident without understanding the full context.  Some people lack empathy for others and just rush to judgment.  When decernment turns mean, it is toxic, whether the victim or the perpetrator.  Learn more about cultivating a mindset to reduce judgment and increase compassion.  Distinguish between judging actions and judging people.  There is nothing wrong with judging actions.  That is why there are judges sitting in a courtroom; they are judging actions.  Never be judgy of the person.  A judge has to distinguish between the two.  A judge is supposed to bring clarity of thought about a situation without using judginess against the person themselves. Stop and think about any person who you may be judging for an action.  We all come with our histories and baggage.  We all live with some degree of hurt, denial, anger and hypocrisy.  

We are all imperfect.

God's blessings be upon you,

💞🕊

Taking accountability is an important part of being your true self.  It is being responsible for your actions and decisions and also being able to justify those things.  It is being responsible for both positive and negative outcomes and also being prepared to take corrective action when necessary.  Take ownership of your actions and the consequences of those actions.  You need to be able to explain why you made certain choices. Your actions can cause  pain and confusion in certain circumstances.  At times all people are unaware that each of us have consequences in decisions made without thinking them through.  I have pulled some doozies that I totally regret.  The unhealed part of me pushed for my desired outcomes where I should not have and I am so sorry that I ever treated someone in that way.  Love will make you do some very questionable things. 

Once I healed, I found my deep feelings for this man still intact. I knew the moment I glanced in his direction, that I loved him and that we had history together from the past.

 We had just met at the wrong time. Neither one of us were healed. Our time is coming into alignment now, presently.  We will always strive to act with integrity and be honest with each other.  It is a very important component to any type relationship.

Companies are accountable to employees and shareholders,

employees are accountable for their work performance and governments are certainly accountable to the public for their policies and decisions.  It makes me so happy that our country is being revamped from the ground up.  It's about time all these crooked politicians and others are held accountable for all the damage that has been done.  Finally, we are once again a free people, rather than being milked dry of what is rightfully ours.  We will receive back everything that was stolen from us, from the time just after our country was stolen from us and deemed a corporation.  Until recently, our country was not under Constitutional law as it was supposed to be.  That is why these policies handed down kept us imprisoned with every turn.  It was the deep state elites plan all along, especially through the Federal Reserve. It has been their cash cow. It will be  mindblowing what all has been burdened upon the people, while all the while heavily lining their own pockets.  We have all been made slaves to the system and all the while, completely blind to it all.  It happened so subtly over decades and decades, no one noticed.  

We are gratefully now back under Constitutional Law as of Trump's return to office. 

Holding individuals accountable for these actions will motivate people to strive for higher quality and results.

All the actions of President Trump will one day be completely clear and not misunderstood any longer as it is by some right now.  This was government corruption on not just a national scale but a global scale, which is why it has taken so long to bring all these people to justice.  Although you might not see it yet, things are looking up.

God Bless You All,

💞🕊

The 'dark night of the soul' refers to a period of deep spiritual crisis.  The perceptions of your meaning of life will fall away.  You have a feeling you are deeply lost and have feelings of emptiness.  It is an extreme challenge because everything you thought your reality to be crumbles. You question your beliefs, your sense of purpose and even your connection to something larger than yourself.  It is a time of intense questioning and doubts, especially within your religious or spiritual framework; a sense of purposelessness and feeling as though life has lost all meaning.  

Periods of deep sadness and despair arise and you will feel trapped or completely disconnected. 

While very painful, it is a time of great transformation.  Transformation through a very deep spiritual awakening giving you a much stronger renewed sense of self.

Major external events can and will trigger your spiritual awakening.  Questioning one's belief system and a search for deeper meaning within, can also lead to this profound experience.

There will be a release of your self image and illusions of being separate from the world.

The 'dark night of the soul' can be a necessary step to a more authentic self awareness.

The dark night can share symptoms with depression, but it is different at it's core.  Depression is often characterized by sadness, hopelessness and a loss of interest in activities you normally enjoy.  The 'dark night of the soul' is more a spiritually-based crisis and search for meaning even though that search may lead to temporary despair.  

This challenging transformation is difficult but potentially an extremely rewarding one.  You will descend into darkness, and it will then light the way to a deeper understanding and a rebirth into your true sense of self.  You will be shown the light through that darkness.

I would like to speak on some prophetic song lyrics that were, once upon a time, recorded by Prince and The New Power Generation.  I personally feel there was much more depth to this man than we ever could have imagined.

Below are some of the lyrics I will speak about:

7

ALL SEVEN AND WE'LL WATCH THEM FALL

THEY STAND IN THE WAY OF LOVE AND WE WILL SMOKE THEM ALL

WITH AN INTELLECT AND A SAVOIR FAIRE

NO ONE IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE WILL EVER COMPARE

I AM YOURS NOW AND YOU ARE MINE

AND TOGETHER WE'LL LOVE THROUGH ALL SPACE AND TIME

SO DON'T CRY

ONE DAY ALL SEVEN WILL DIE

Prince was asked by someone what the lyrics to "7" was referring to in the song, and if I am correct, he told them it referred to the seven deadly sins.

The seven deadly sins mentioned in the book of Revelation, would all, most assuredly stand in the way of love as the song lyrics imply.

LUST

(Unrestrained Sexual Craving)

We are to be pure.  Guard your heart, by finding a project, or exercising when you need to, to steer you away from that lifestyle.  It's a very dangerous game to play.

GLUTTONY

(To Overindulge Food And Drink)

We need to be moderate in our eating and drinking.  Going to the extreme in either one, overeating or excessively drinking, can be very dangerous to our health and also to our mental well being as well as others around us.

PRIDE

(Inflated Sense Of Self)

We need to be humble. We need to realize every day that we need our Creator and others who are around us.  Pray about everything and serve your fellow man.

SLOTH

(Laziness And Lack Of Effort)

Our lives should not revolve around resting.  Be diligent and set  a schedule for yourself.  Otherwise, you will slip into a reality where you never accomplish anything worthwhile.

WRATH

(Uncontrolled Hate And Anger)

Do breathing exercises to moderate your emotions.  Learn to be a kind and loving person, loaded with lots of patience.

GREED

(Excessive Desire For Material Things)

Be a generous person in that you donate things you like yourself and don't actually need to the poor.  What a wonderful feeling!

Learn to live a more simple life.

And Lastly...

ENVY

(Jealous Of Another's Happiness)

Be thankful every single day for all you have and all you do not have.  Think about that for a minute.   We thank God for the things we have, but how many times do we remember to thank God for things we did not need to happen in our lives?  Thank Him for the safety and protection He provides every second of every day.

I am remembering a head-on collision I was involved in a few years ago where the occupants of the other car and myself as well all walked away unharmed.  That could have very well turned out differently.  Also, back when doordashing, I came close to being hit by an out of control driver who ran through my customer's yard between my parked car and the customer's front door.  Had I tripped or fallen, I would not be here to tell this story.  The car missed me by only 12 inches, maybe less.  We most definitely all have guardian angels watching over us.  Behind every activity of every one of us, there are legions of angels keeping us from harm.  🕊🕊🕊

Prince was right, all seven of these deadly sins which are a very real part of the human condition, will all be torn down in the end, to never cause blockages or heartache again.

We will all be able to love one another, regardless of any differences, as God loves us and always planned for us in the very beginning.  Hatred between people because of the color of their skin or their background will be a thing of the past.

God Bless You All, 

❤️🕊

Creating a more peaceful home is one of the best ways to build a stress free life.  Your home should be where you can enter in and happily unwind after a long day, spending quality time with the people you love.  Focus on minimizing clutter, using calming elements or fabrics, and also using alot of natural light.  You could add some plants and calming scents, keeping your family's relaxation in mind.

A clutter free environment promotes mental clarity and a much needed sense of calm.  Keeping your home organized can make a huge difference in your mood and well-being.

The use of natural light has a very positive impact on your energy level as well as your mood.  Soft textures such as a nice blanket, pillows or a rug would be delightful for your surroundings. You can use natural materials such as wood, stone or beautiful plants to bring you a sense of tranquility. Consider using scented candles,  or a diffuser to add a soothing fragrance to your home.  Aromatherapy is a fantastic way to promote relaxation within the home and create a calming atmosphere.

Lastly, bring nature indoors.  It reduces your stress level.  Create a sense of structure by planning daily routines such as meditation or even drinking a cup of coffee.  Settling into stillness is a very worthy endeavor.  To do so, you can combine the healing power of conscious relaxation and sacred sound.  I started by listening to different frequency audio on YouTube.  You can search healing frequencies and a whole family of different frequency sounds can be found for whatever your objective is at the time...You can listen to a combination of 528 hz and 174 hz, which is a miracle frequency for pain relief and body healing meditation.  Try different frequency meditations to find your favorites. To sit in stillness with yourself is one of the strongest acts in self love and growing in your closeness with the Divine.

Hungering for the truth refers to a deep desire to uncover what is real.  This hunger is a yearning for spiritual or ethical guidance within your life, a pursuit of wisdom or a craving for more understanding.  When I was saved the first time, basically, it was all for show.  I did not actually want to be, I just didn't want my church members thinking less of me.  Isn't that ridiculous?  At that time, I absolutely did not truthfully yearn for God in my life.  I was just like so many are today.  If you give your life to God, you have to give up all the fun part of life, is what I thought.  That is, however, a very untrue statement.  It is what we have all been taught all our lives.  Things are so different than what you believe.  The reason we have been taught that there is a vengeful God outside ourselves, is to keep us imprisoned within our own mind.  If we were to know what is true and search for God within our own heart, where you make true connection to our creator, you will realize that God is not someone outside ourselves; never has been and never will be.

When I awakened to this reality, is when I stepped through a new doorway into my true Christ-centered life.  A new life springs forth where you are allowing His voice to speak to your heart and mind.  Once you plug in to God frequency, you will be unstoppable.  That, my friends, is why we were taught differently from the beginning.  Once your heart opens up and vibrates on the same frequency as the creator and you learn what you, as a human being, are truly  capable of, that destroys the control they have over you.  You are free from the matrix programming and can think for yourself.  You will break free from all your limiting beliefs and this simulation-like reality.  You become more self aware, making more conscious choices and living intentionally rather than just accepting what you are told.

The matrix represents society expectations that shape our perception and behavior.  To escape this matrix is to start questioning these expectations and embrace your individuality.

This is a process of realizing you are not a passive participant in a pre-determined reality but a conscious being with the power to choose your own path.

You can escape this matrix and make intentional decisions based on your own values and beliefs, rather than reacting to external pressure.  Start living intentionally by designing a life built on your own values and aligned with  your true self and not passively accepting whatever someone else may consider normal.  Take ownership of your own life and make choices that empower you.  Do not rely on external validation or authority.

You can break free today friends, do it!  Your life is your own...

Not someone standing by, giving you a play by play on how to live it.
