Honor Your Journey | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 299

Honoring your path and journey is a part of owning your own spiritual power and authority. It is yours and only yours.  Many people will have influenced it along the way; from family members to ministers and friends and yes, even those we have thought of as enemies.

When looking at life through a spiritual lens, it becomes apparent that everything that is happening now is to help our soul grow more into the soul we were destined to be.  Now I know we want life to be easy.  But is it ever?  There are times of ease and plenty and times of trial and growth.  It helps to know that those times are connected and equal in the eyes of God.  Honor your journey!

Own Your Power | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 298

Own your power is a journey.  Are you owning you own power?  And when I say power, I mean spiritual power.  Knowing your power is really knowing your worth. When you know your worth, true power, which comes from God, is absolutely yours! 

Are you owning that innate goodness and living it in the world?  Your power is from God, yet most of us are taught to be quiet - - "seen and not heard" and yet the scriptures tell us to "shine your light".  It is possible to live a spiritual life and still own your power.  It is a holy thing.

Learning to Flow | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 297

Doesn't it seem like the whole world wants you to rush right now?  And multi-task? Like crazy?! I know that is the message I am seeing and hearing...but there is another way.  To be at peace and to flow is a state of awareness and beingness.  It is a feeling of light, love and spaciousness.  It happens internally first usually, but occasionally I have to go into nature to really vibe and flow with all that is.

Breathing is key to getting there.  Deep breathing.  Breath literally is flow.  Take a deep breath right now.  How do you feel?  Learn to flow with life through the power of breathing and being present. Breathe...flow.

Your Authentic Spiritual Journey | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 296

Your authentic spiritual journey is just that - - it's yours! Please try not to compare yourself and your journey to others.  I know this is difficult in a culture of social media comparisons and the age of put-downs...but this is anything BUT spiritual. Always be asking the question:  How does this apply to me and my journey?

This will create a culture and environment of growth and healing.

Being A Spiritual Grown-Up | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 295

Are you a spiritual grown-up?  And are you ready to play with the big kids and sit and eat at the adult table?  If you were attracted to this show and podcast then the answer to those questions is a resounding YES! Being a spiritual grown-up is dedicating yourself to your spiritual practice, being in integrity with yourself and your God and taking responsibility for what is yours to do and be. 

This idea scares some people, but to people who are serious about the soul's journey, this is both a pleasure and blessing!  If things in life could be better, it might be time to take a look inward and ask yourself some questions:

  • Am I showing up for myself and my process?

  • Am I keeping my commitment to my own spiritual growth?

  • Am I taking responsibility for what is mine to do and be?

  • Am I getting help when I need help or offering help to others?

  • Am I praying daily and tapping into the Divine to lead my life?

  • And always, ALWAYS give thanks! Thank you, God!  Thank you, God!  Thank you, God! And so it is. Amen.

Listen to this show for more information on the 10 impossible things!

Love Is All You Need | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 294

A song I grew up hearing was, "Love Is All You Need."  When I first heard it, I can tell you I had no idea what love really was.  And truthfully I am still learning what love is and how it is expressed by God, through me and others.

The scriptures talk more about love then any other idea, 645 times in fact in the New Living Translation, which is interesting, considering that places of worship can be so full of gossip, backbiting and other forms of unhealthy behaviors.  It is a radical kind of love that we all need.  This episode explores the need for love and the tremendous challenge before us to love more fully and deeply.

Dan Bray focuses on working with clients seeking an intellectual approach to creating design solutions for their personal space, dwelling and/or workplace.   He strives to create evocative spaces that are founded in both integrity and spirituality, enlightening others to  “connect”  with their place of home or work, resulting in an authentic and highly-personable expression of themselves, with a sense of sophistication and style, absent of ostentation or pretentiousness.

Restoration | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 292

In today's idea of restoration, it means making something look like it's original form.  In spiritual ideas, it means to make new and be better than the original!  Isn't this good news?  And, the scriptures tell us that we will never again be put to shame.  This is all from the book of Joel, chapter 2.

Many of us believe that we are doomed to our life as it is because of our past conditions or what has happened to us.  But this is not true. There is always restoration and redemption. You can trust in that!  What in your life needs to be restored?  Your faith? Your belief in good? Your spirit?  Your body?  Your soul?  The promise of the scripture is that you will be able to be restored!

The Name of Your Movie | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 291

If you were to make a movie of your life, what would you call it?  And who would play you?  What would the main themes be?  These are important questions for the serious spiritual seeker.  Where are you now?  Is it a hero's journey?  Is it a story of missed opportunities?  Or are you coming into your biggest life now?  Who is leading you?  What is motivating you?  How are you looking to God in creating this new life?

Integrity With Your Process | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 290

Are you working it?  Are you still writing your 10 Impossible Things Daily?  This is an awesome practice...and if you are NOT doing it.  Now is the time to start.  Integrity with your process is so important.  What does this mean?  It means sticking to and showing up for yourself, and honoring what you say is important.

If you have integrity with yourself, you will do everything in your power, to move forward.  If you don't, you will be one of those folks who has a "wish" and doesn't really own their dream.  People who only wish, don't see manifestation. It is the folks dedicated to themselves and their journey.  Is that you?

Hope Is Born | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 288

"For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord." - Luke 2:11

Hope is born!  Hope was born in the form of a baby over 2000 years ago and brings hope, still today.  Jesus was born at a time of political unrest,  high taxes and a general feeling of powerlessness.  Does this sound familiar?  Even today, we are in the dynamic.  A relationship with Jesus the Christ is a place of hope and renewal.  Are you connecting with this power?  Allow hope to be born in you this day!  And you can take the Christ presence out into the world and bring hope to those around you.

Raymond Ussery and Terri Gilbert | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 287

So, where do you start when it comes to delivering a message of love?  It came down to building and fostering an environment where individuals could share who they were in a vulnerable, authentic place without judgment. 

The idea was to be able to have people hear the "other" side in a heartfelt and meaningful way.  The foundation of this message has led people to connect and understand each other on a human level — a vital step to fulfilling our vision where love wins.

Your Christmas List | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 286

"What do you want for Christmas?"  This is a question most of us are asked every year and we ask our children as well.  We will say, "make a list and let me know what you want!"  And this is fun...I even engage my spirituality in asking for and buying gifts as to where and how to shop.  This is always a delight to see how Spirit/universe will engage with me.

That said, maturing in the journey is moving past me or mine. The evolving soul moves beyond the limited and personal self into the collective.  What is your wish for the collective and how are you playing a part in bringing this into fruition?

Making New Traditions | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 285

Making new traditions is a way to have a wonderful experience of the holidays!  It is so important to have your special traditions be reflective of your new consciousness and practice.

As you grow and mature on the journey, it is also meaningful to bring forward the things of the past with new meaning and awareness and beginning new practices and traditions for your family today. This episode is an important call for a new experience of the Christ spirit.

What Is Good? | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 283

What is on your mind...right now?  Where is your focus?  What are you ruminating over and wondering about?  I have learned a powerful lesson about the mind and soul.  Put simply, whatever I focus is on, I get more of - and that is the truth! Have you noticed this?

I also know that my emotions, when combined with powerful thoughts, will magnify those thoughts and energy to create this reality in my life. So, right now as you read this, think about:  WHAT IS GOOD?  And allow your mind to answer this question. You will receive a blessing and be able to bless others as well.  What is good?

Philippians 4:8, New International Version

8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Getting Support | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 282

You don't have to do this alone.  As a matter of fact, getting support will affirm good choices and help you ascertain what is best at the given moment.  It is important to have a feedback loop on behaviors, as it's often hard to view yourself.  Support is not passive.  It is a kind of accountability combined with love and grace.

So if you are receiving this - GREAT!  And if not, it might be time to seek counsel or support for your journey.  Choosing the right counsel will  catapult your journey forward and give you peace.  There is also the inner support you receive from the heavenly realms.  This support comes through the soul of you.  Having both inner and outer support will affirm you and your chosen path!

Walking Inside of Fear | The Authentic Spiritual Journey 281

Fear is the major barrier that is keeping you from your highest spiritual self and growth.  I often say, "There is nothing to fear."  And people answer back, "Nothing to fear?  Are you crazy? What about not enough money? Or food?  Or walking in a bad neighborhood?  Turn on the news -- there is PLENTY to be afraid of."

Yes, friends.  Fear will steal your joy and state of mind on the regular, if you allow it to. This episode is about facing the fear, walking inside of it, confronting it and getting it to back down so the soul can shine through.  Fear is a part of the curriculum and facing it and conquering will be the biggest blessing of your life.
