2/23/2024 Crap

        I had to take my wife to the doctor in the city on Wednesday. Had to leave early that day. I usually use the bathroom between 9 and 10 am.  I had to leave at 8am. I was worried about this. But Wednesday morning came and I used the bathroom at 7:20, which never happens. I was happy about that, as well as thankfull. That was a load off my mind. So spirit knew ahead of time what my predicament was. And answered the call. So spirit becomes involved with the nitty gritty in the affairs of us. Looking after us in the most mundane of all actions.  

      If spirit can help in the little things, think what it can do in the bigger facets of our lives. When it comes to our life set a course of where you would like to go and what it is you want to experience. Give this endeavor a lot of thought. Make an outline. You can fill in the blanks later on. Always refer to this outline every Sunday and take notes and add things to the outline. Always to remember that you can ask spirit for it's input along the way. If you are handed something, think do I really need this? And if not, withdraw your hand. Your life will be about additions as well as subtractions.  Both are important. They can refer to people or things. This is hands on.  Always changing and flowing. The trick is to have fun with the total experience. Always be thankful to begin your day. Take 5- 10 min in morning to do a contemplation. A zeroing in, on what you would like.

2/11/2024 Nightmare

        Last night I got it. A lot of details are gone from it. But the gist from it was the US was attacked. I was in a single story large structure and dust or particulate was all in the air. The skies were filled with our military planes. I remember trying to get details on what was happening. Fear permeated through the building. Many people were in the building. Did not like this dream one bit.

       No matter what happens in your life small events or big ones, there is always Divine Spirit to call on. By using spirit in the small mundane things, it will show you that it does work for you by you taking action and spirit bringing the remedy closer to you. It is very simple, just ask. Then do your part. And always express gratitude after the fact. No matter where you are or what's going on lean on Divine Spirit because that's what it's here for. Build that trust. And keep a journal to remind you of past experiences working with Divine Spirit. This is what this Unfolding Journeys is all about. As you work with Divine Spirit your awareness will grow and your life will become even more rewarding than it is now. This relationship will power you on through. No matter what difficulties lay ahead.

2 /08/2024 More on Exercise

        Went away in the beginning of November last year. My dumbell exercises came to an end the way I use to do them. I brought a 20 pound dumbell with me. I found that I got a little weaker. I  started to do 25 reps on each arm each day. I found that I started to get strong again. After I got back 2 months later, I resumed the dumbell but now I do 103 on the right arm and 113 on the left arm the less dominant one. I also do 20 reverse dumbell lifts each arm. Sitting in my chair,  I lift  my weight above my head and hold it there a count of 65, each arm.. I do  65  15 pound leg lifts as well. So from July to November I did many lifts. This I talked about in a couple previous blogs. Which built me up. I got a foundation. So I am able to keep my muscle tone by doing way less weight. The extra weight took a lot more time to do.  The top of my bicep  has almost lost the last of the wrinkles. Still wrinkles persist below the bicep. Eventually I will get rid of them.  So it takes time. But its worth it to me. I do most of my exercises sitting in my office chair in the morning. No expensive exercise machines or gym membership. Last 6 years I would need a home depot  bucket to push off of to get  up from ground while gardening. Now I don't need the bucket. I feel more stronger than ever. Half hour in the morning  every day. It has really made my life a lot better. When you lift, start with small weights and over time go up in increments. Never push yourself too hard. Listen to your body. If you feel a tweek, back off either the reps you are doing or take 2 days off. Or reduce the weight. I feel 25 years younger. Those who want more definition they go to more heavier weights. These are your muscle people. You don't have to look like that. But weights can and do make you fit. It may also give you less aches and pains. As you strengthen your muscles you are protecting your bones. Listen to your body and use your doctors. Catching things early can extend your life.

2/02/2024 Road Block

        I was doing a job last week. I had to get in this crawl space. The wall went up 2 ft from the ground. Then the opening rectangle was 2 ft by 4 ft. Trying to get in that opening was not easy. I decided to takeout 1 cinder block. I have my cold chisel and start on the 8x 16 inch block. Slow going trying to chisel out the block. I ask spirit for an assist. I keep banging away and I notice the block start to loosen up a little bit. My leverage bar helps me out. Thank-you  spirit with the block problem. I know that If I didn't ask, it would have taken me another hour to get it out. With the block out of the way, it was way better.  I was insulating heating pipe. I used tape that had a release tape on it. So you would cut a small section and then have to use a wallpaper knife to separate the paper from the tape. That was a pain. I ask spirit if there is a way to do it better. Spirit came through again after using the tip of blade I was able to hit the sweet spot of tape and get it separated. Each time it worked I would say thank-you spirit. There were 200 cuttings or more. Spiritual help in every day occurences. I always say Thanj-you spirit. 

2/02/2024 Golgotha

       I always wondered why Jesus said, God why have you forsaken me. Today I did a contemplation about it. This is what I got. It was God's way to answer the people of the earth.  So God comes to earth as a man. The man Jesus is born. During the course of that lifetime, God would also occupy that body.  So it was like 2 'people'  living in one body. On the hill were both the man and God persona. Toward the end of the man's life,  the God part leaves the man. Hence, Jesus feels the separation. And utters the remark. This showed the demarcation between man and God. 

       We too can get this connection by allowing divine spirit into our lives. All you have to do is invite it in. We do what we can and when we get stuck we can call on spirit with the needed assist.

       When we act from fear, nothing works right. If we do it with love we get a good result. Why because God is love. When I got angry with someone I felt the immediate  cut off from spirit which culminated in me gasping for breath. So when I'm  in congruence with spirit I didn't know it. However when the anger cut me off I felt it. So I was off the path for 5 minutes  I did not like it one bit.
