So too often we get obsessed on what is our life's purpose and we try so hard for the answers, its like looking for a lost object, the harder you look, the harder it is to find. So perhaps one should just allow themselves to be, put your focus on something else and like the lost object it will appear.
Mother - Father, God - Goddess, Source, our Creator wants us to live in this moment, not the past or possible futures, right now is what counts. Bringing love, joy, Happiness, to our-selves and others that's our purpose helping all life through love and simple acts of kindness, that truly comes from our hearts and loving the earth for the life's she helps sustain. What comes to my mind is something Jesus said to me, give love and expect nothing in return.
You're never disconnected from the spiritual world you are Spirit, it's in you, above you, below you, all around you! You are the essence of the Divine feminine and masculine forever changing and growing, remembering who you are.
The teacher will come, but remember you also are teacher, whether you're conscious of it or not, we're all students and teachers together.
Something else that also helps me as above, as below, as on Earth, as it is in Heaven: (The Lords Prayer) Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not in to temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the Kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen
I know what this prayer means to me and I will explain, but what is more important is what it will mean to you, use it, contemplate what it saying to you, read it from your heart, pray and meditate on it.
Hallowed be thy name, Our Names are written in the book of life each one is sacred and revered. Thy Kingdom come, it is within you and it comes through you, the heart of Source. Divine will works through us (through purity of our hearts) Thy will be done, this is the will being done. Above, as below, and as on Earth, as it is in Heaven, meaning I' am on Earth even as I' am in Heaven, we bridge Heaven and Earth, there is no separation. Our Daily Bread, the Creator provides for all our needs as much as we will allow or think ourselves worthy, this is given to all.
When we ask for forgiveness from our Creator we must understand that this ability is also in us to forgive, what we ask for ourselves is also what we should be giving in return. And as Jesus said forgive them for they know not what they do, meaning not conscious of there own thoughts or action and there effects. (Being conscious of what we do or do not do) key it is.
Now this one is the ego (Easing God Out) the temptation of the egos false desires (what ever the desire ask: is this in the highest interest and in the greatest interest of all) and that's how you know if it is Divine will, or our little human ego's will (I align my will, with Divine will, and divine life purpose).
And this evil is lack of love! So we are delivered through love. For thine is the Kingdom The individualized focus of the Source full of grace and truth, Universal Christ as the true identity of the soul, the real self of every man, woman, and child, "our birthright". And the power is love and the only truth, and glory, our Creator glorifies us not humanity, and knowing the glory, and brilliance of Mother - Father Gods love for we are loved beyond any human words can express and our souls are forever and ever in Source as an eternal, immortal manifestation. Amen "It means the unseen principles of Divine." So be it, to have faith and belief even without seeing. A Firm Agreement of strong faith and belief.
