CHAPTER ONE:
The CONCEPT of THE 24/7 SOUL
Ask yourself: Who am I and what am I doing with my life? In piecing together this book, I asked myself this question as well as, What is one of the prominent messages I want to share with you? These questions compelled me to reminisce about my meditation today (12/21/05) which took me on a journey to the world of Spirit. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a being of light which I will call my guide.
My guide led me to a beautiful lake, which was at the base of magnificent snow capped mountains rising far above. It was pointed out to me that the lake reflected a duplication of the beautiful mountains and also the lake acted as a mirror of what loomed above. This visualization showed me that we each are connected to our Spirit Parent through the beauty of the creation of all life and that it is possible to become both of these images through the growth of our spirit. The 24/7 term is one used in our world today which means that a business is open 24 hours/day and 7 days/week. The business is ALWAYS open and available, thus the meaning for THE 24/7 SOUL term. THE 24/7 SOUL is also always open and available and in this case, for the business of Spirit Development.
Our Divine Plan is the blueprint for our life on Earth and we are provided guidance to understand and embrace it as we learn to utilize our Divine Connection, which is our direct link of communication with our Creator. With each moment of learning, comes our spiritual enlightenment and maturity and we begin to view our life in refreshing and exciting ways. This enlightenment gradually shows us, that no matter how difficult our life becomes, we are absolutely committed to what we need to learn and accomplish within our Divine Plan. For our soul evolvement, we consistently seek the wisdom of the Creator and now require experiencing our everyday life in transforming ways, bringing new meaning to our consciousness. We passionately need to learn how to develop our spirit as we receive the comforting love of our Creator.
As we become closer to our beloved Father Mother God, this need becomes greater and is transformed into an immediate, but also a lifetime goal. Our thoughts and the way we direct our life is now intensely focused on our relationship with God. We have a need to view each life experience as something which absolutely fits into our Divine Plan. We have become a 24/7 SOUL through our compelling needs to be in service, as we continually seek direction from our Spirit Parent.
The concept of THE 24/7 SOUL is lived as a human on Earth who desires closeness with its Creator. Through living out our earthly life, we gradually awaken our spirit. With each life lesson learned, comes heartfelt impact and the soul eventually discovers its divine nature. The revelation of our divine nature makes us reflect upon our spirit growth by the closeness and the love we feel for and from our Spirit Maker.
Remember the magnificent snow capped mountains and the beautiful lake that we just discussed? We each are the beautiful lake and we also want to eventually become the magnificent snow capped mountains as God is. THE 24/7 SOUL gradually begins to realize that it has a special purpose and a powerful connection to the Source who gave life and therefore over time chooses to mirror the image of the Creator. This soul matures its spirit by living through each meaningful experience on a conscious level and strives to accelerate its growth in service to God.
I believe that each human has the ability to have a close, emotional, loving and unique relationship with God. This statement will prove to be a challenge for many, as it was for me. We all are beset by challenges and struggles throughout our lifetime, which in many ways, can drive us further away from our beliefs or our spiritual quest. However, the true and courageous stance we will most likely take within our lifetime will be to question, research and seek out the reason why we are here and eventually find the meaningful relationship we desire with our Spirit Maker.
Since our earthly birth, I believe that a relationship with our Creator is the ONE our soul craves to have. The true nature of this relationship can be sabotaged many times by our tremendous human need to have unconditional love grace our life. Because of this, we take many detours, still searching for this non-human connection. No matter how far we drift, we are never far from our Spirit Parent, as this parent wants us to question and explore through experiencing our life in a variety of ways. Our free will dictates to us how we would find the roots of our spirit. To find and have a relationship with our Creator is a process and it takes much effort. We each need to ask our self if we are willing to put in the spiritual sweat equity it takes to make the connection with our true parent.
We desperately need to love and be loved and sometimes, we mistakenly think we have found the unconditional love of our Creator. Once again, we are disappointed by the world (relationships, etc.) and continue with our quest. Our search to find our spirit roots/identity may have been camouflaged by other relationships we established along the way. We know that we have a long journey ahead to find out who we are and what we are to be doing on Earth. The concept of THE 24/7 SOUL represents this unique and motivated soul who is consistently seeking enlightenment and wisdom for its spirit in any place it may be found. This soul (could it be you?) is on an intense mission to develop its spirit by understanding and joyously living out its Divine Plan.
