Last week we talked about ABUNDANCE. About sharing something you feel you have an abundance of in your life. We discussed the 4 steps to create abundance in your life which include tithing to the source of your spiritual food, affirming you are rich beyond your wildest dreams, visioning yourself doing what you love to do and surrendering and letting God guide and direct your life.

This week I will share with you some affirmations to help you in your process. You can also create your own affirmations on small index cards or colored posterbaord, etc. Place them on the fridge, your bathroom mirror, in your car or anywhere else you need to remember to keep your focus. Try puting one near your computer, the nightstand by your bed, at your desk at work, on your altar or in your meditation area. Find affirmations that are easy for you to remember such as I AM A RICH CHILD OF GOD IN A RICH UNIVERSE,
I AM IRRESISTABLE TO MY HIGHEST GOOD, GOD IS THE SOURCE OF MY SUPPLY, etc. Simple reminders of simple truths.

You can increase your abundance by expressing gratitude daily, from your heart for all the things in your life. Your good health, peace of mind, a beautiful home to live in, loving friends and family, healthy food to eat and experiences that help you to grow spiritually. If for any reason you are holding a grudge, being resentful, judging anyone, feeling bitter towards anyone ( your boss, your partner, a family member, a friend) you are blocking your prosperity. Take a look at your life and see if there is anyone you are having negative feelings towards. Put them in the pink light of unconditional love. Forgive yourself. Forgive them. Bless them free. Affirm that you have everything you need to create the life you want right now. Give gratitude and thanks for every person in your life. Give gratitude and thanks for all that you have in your life now.

Now take a look at what isn't working in your life. Realize that you cannot use the same thinking that created these challenges to solve them. Ask Spirit to show you a solution. Take some time to fix the things that a broken in your life. Heal the relationships that need healing. Go through your house and fix and repair what needs it. As you do this you will feel more alive, envigorated and more connected to your life. If it's not possible to mend or fix and item consider releasing it. This allows you to manifest something that will work well and reconfigure your energy.

All of this will create the space for you to truly value who you are, what you have and what you are creating in this life of yours. It creates space and room for truly valuing and honoring you and your choices. It also helps you to remember why you made the choices you did and gives you opportunity to choose from this now moment what you desire to create and attract into your life.

We now step into thankfulness, giving thanks for the gift of our lives, the gift of our abilities, the gift of sharing. We begin to find many things to be thankful for. Thankfulness for lessons we have learned, thankfulness for the people who have irritated us, thankfulness for those who pushed our buttons, those who disagreed with us, those who do not choose to listen to us those who do not acknowldege our feelings, etc. When you can become truly thankful for all of this you are able to see your life from a spiritual perspective. You are then able to grow and become more than you were previously. In this growth you can then help others to see a new point of view.
  • Fix and mend what is broken in your life.
  • Find something to be thankful for each day.
  • Find new ways to express your gratitude. Ways that are important to the other person- your boss, your partner, your friend, your teacher.
  • Turn on the love in your heart and keep it flowing.
  • Put energy into your dreams, your visions and your heart's desires.
  • Put everyday practices that support your growth on high priority.
  • Assess weekly how you are doing.
  • Make list and prayers on New Moon of what you desire in your life.
  • Celebrate what you have received at Full Moon.
  • See your progress and celebrate it.


Blessings and grace,
