Visioning: What is Waiting to Express?

A quote from Dr. Michael Beckwith ~

"As far as a very basic description, you first center yourself through meditation or contemplative prayer in which you commune with the Ineffable, activating a field of unconditional love. Once your consciousness is open and receptive, you place questions before your higher Self: What is the highest vision for my life? What must I become in order to manifest this vision?  What qualities must I cultivate?  What qualities must I release?  What talents, gifts, skills and qualities do I already possess that will serve this vision?  Then follows a deep listening with an open heart, pushing away nothing that arises or judging it. This practice can be effectively applied in all aspects of one’s life. "Life Visioning Technology - Michael Beckwith

After reading Dr. Beckwith's definition of visioning and watching his two minute video,  I think you will agree with me that this is a very powerful spiritual practice.

On Wednesday, February 19, at 7 p.m.  September Warren,  who was trained in the visioning process by Dr. Michael Beckwith, we be leading us in a visioning for our Wednesday's Wisdom service at the Center.  I invite everyone to attend this creative and inspirational evening. 

There are so many wonderful spiritual practices that we already are familiar with and participate in on a daily basis (i.e.  prayer, meditation, silence, chanting, listening, and many more!)  So! I am very excited to experience this relatively new avenue to a higher consciousness.

Dr. Beckwith also says, "The cool part of it all is that none of us never know how far what’s birthed by the inspiration of the heart can reach out and impact the world in a positive, uplifting way, which is why I encourage people to go beyond self-consciousness and have the courage to deliver their gifts, talents, and skills in the world."

So let's create something wonderful and new together!

Sweet Blessings,

Reverend Judee Chapman

Let go and Let God.

Do you feel as if you are doing it all yourself?  Are you the one responsible for making it all happen? When those "doing it all" feelings arise, take it as a clue or signal.  At this moment in time, stop and recognize what it really is.  It's time to release, to let go. 

Sometimes we get caught up in our day-to-day living, time goes by and we wonder how a day, week, month or even a year just flew by.  We reflect on what has transpired in that timeframe, only to realize that it's hard to remember what happened.

If this is happening, you are truly doing it all.  If this is the case, there is no room for anyone else to contribute.  What if you let it all go?

Some may feel scared to let it all go and Let God.  Do you really want to give all your power away? What would happen if you do?  You may ask, "Where will God take me? What will God make me?"

If a true Spiritual journey is your desire, your heart may be pulling you to change.  As Reverend Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith of Agape International Spiritual Center states, "This is not a feel good religion."  Sometimes your journey can have grit and sometimes can be smooth as silk.  It really depends on how much change is required to get you to the next level.  If your Soul is pulling to stretch, pain may be a necessary physical byproduct.

Are you ready to level up?

Let go and Let God.
