I Am Receptive to Beauty. The type that inspires Growth. I Am receptive to Abundance. The type that comes from God. 🌌✨ #LinkInBio

✨🌌NEW AFFIRMATIVE POEM 🌌✨ . From the blog: "There is so much more beyond the five known senses. Open the Eye, and you too will see. I now see everything as part of something bigger, and it's simply beautiful to experience magic on this scale. . More than merely experiencing, I know that I am also part of the creation of such magical experiences. As long as I am in tune with this Higher Intelligence, I know that I will continue to see the magic. As long as I am in communion with the Divine, I can find purpose in everything; I can see the fine lines. As long as I continue to follow the omens and my intuition, God will continue to show me as clearly, indisputably, that there is much happening "behind the scenes." . This is an affirmation, in form of a poem, to let God, the cosmos, and the working energies know that I am here, I notice, I participate, and I love all of it. This poem is me reaffirming my intentions and desires as to how I intent to communicate with these forces. With a grateful heart I share these words with you. May this poem and this post serve you in whatever form best suits your growth."

#Affirmation ✨💫 I've had many many many synchronicities in my life to know that, they are not coincidental; I am always at the perfect place and at the perfect time for these synchronicities to manifest. . Whether it is running "late" just to help someone I couldn't have helped otherwise, or to experience magic that I wouldn't have experience otherwise, I know that I'm led and guided by a very intelligence force. Whether it is to see someone I don't know multiple times in one day (without any reason other than being in the same energetic field) or simply exchange thoughts with a stranger that would give me so much insight, I am always at the perfect place, at the perfect time. . Even the most seemingly "bad decisions" I've made, and their consequences, are perfect. Life detours and sudden changes are perfectly orchestrated by a higher force. Everything makes sense eventually, at least in my reality. I experience exactly what I need to evolve in the ways I desire. . I know that I am always at the perfect place, at the perfect time, because, this universal intelligence does not have room for faults. I know that I am always at the perfect place, at the perfect time, because, accidents don't exist for God. . Because I know this, I put my trust in the Higher Force that has been showing me, time in time again, that I am always at the perfect place, at the perfect time. Hereby I say "yes" to more magical coincidences that leave me in awe. I say "yes" to experiences that clearly remind me that there's a higher intelligence working. I say "yes" to living aligned and in harmony with the nuances of this universe 🌌

Fears and insecurities have been rising again these past days in my psyche. From thinking I'm not a "10" in this world, to feeling limited by conditions I cannot control, some fears have made themselves known once again. And they tried to bring me down again. I was feeling that I was lacking in many ways. . When praying and meditating this morning, it hit me again that whereas I might not feel like I'm enough, I am enough. A flow of thoughts came afterwards reminding me that despite everything that I feel, I am enough. . If you have been feeling insecure for whatever reason, whatever condition, whatever pain, just remember that you are enough. Even when you don't feel like that, you are. Remember that most of our pain and insecurities are the products of our environment and our thinking. Our world is fucked up, y'all. Depression and suicide are common topics. It's not you that are not enough, but it's your duty to remember you are, or else, you will be buried alive by your thoughts. . In a world that's always demanding us to represent its changing views of perfection, that punishes us when we fail to meet its demands, and make us feel insignificant in so so many ways, I ask you to go to a higher place to find your joy. Throughout a lifetime of experiences and conditions that make you feel unworthy, center in your Being. Remember that you are enough. Maybe not for the world, maybe not even for your own ideas of who you should be… But you are enough. Forever and always. . Be kind to yourself.♥️ . . . #IAmEnough #affirmation #poetry #poem #spokenword #writing #letgo #bekind #lovethyself #spiritual #God #forgiveness #higherconsciousness #awakening #healing #beautiful #enough #psychology #writersofIG #writer #pray #meditate #grow #JunealHolder

Though spiritual practices - think yoga, meditation, prayer, fasting, church etc. - are essential for us to connect with our Higher Self and God, I do not believe that we are all here to merely sit in prayer and meditation conducting "spiritual practices". Some people choose for this, though. . I think that most of us have some mundane things to achieve or do. It's up to each to know what we came here to do, or rather, what we would like to do here (depending how you choose to see it). Either way, I know we all feel "called" to do some stuff. . We have ambitions, deeply ingrained desires; visions of who we could be. They're part of an inner knowing of our potential. It's like, we know that we are here to achieve or do certain things. Whether it is writing a book or several books, run a business or several businesses, become a model or a photographer, have a career in corporate world, travel the world, create art in any way, make music or express ourselves creatively, or being a parent to seven children, we know what we are capable of doing and even what we are called to do in a period of our lives. We know what we can achieve. . More than merely knowing, I believe that we must honor this inner knowing. Do something about it! As the inspirations, the visions, the ideas come and don't want to leave, accept them gracefully. Why would God give you a vision that you can't bring into fruition?

#WORTHY... Of everything that I have ever dreamed of and beyond.

"I promise myself... To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind. To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet. To make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them. To look at the sunny side of everything, and make my optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature I meet. To give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words, but in great deeds. To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me." - Christian D. Larson - 1912

#Affirmation You can't respond to your highest calling so-so. You can't live your best life averagely. It doesn't make sense. . Now, beware that your highest calling may not be your current studies, current jobs, current habits or current pursuits. If you can't find the "Why" in your doings, or if the "Why" isn't sufficient to set your soul on fire, you might not be living your highest calling at this moment. And that's okay; some things are stepping stones for excellence. Some lessons ought to be learned before moving forward. Some periods are reflective, demanding internal work, while others demand you to activate externally. You must know where you are and what your soul is asking from you. . I sense that it's time to get uncomfortable to reach my fullest potential. In doing so, I honor my highest calling. May this affirmation remind you that to respond your highest calling, whenever the time is right, you must aim for your fullest potential. . The new moon in Libra two weeks ago was all about planting seeds of intentions and allowance for change, and this full moon is about taking chances. If you're also feeling the urge to activate, this is the time. The cosmos support you. . Disclaimer: I'm no astrologer, but I am intuitive. For example, I created this affirmation early today and then felt inspired to look up what the full moon on the 13th/14th is about, just to find out that the affirmation made perfect sense to my current circumstances. . . 📸 Background photo by @photos_by_ginny ✨
