Seek The Light

God is light. ☀️ And I’ve felt that light in the most sincere moments of prayer. I usually like to offer my morning prayers in my living room, or outside. where I can feel the sun coming in and I can just be still for a moment with God.

I recently had an experience with prayer. I was sitting on my couch waiting for an answer from God and as I felt the sun coming into that room, I also felt my heart begin to feel tingly and bright. I felt the light of God increasing in the room and at the same I felt it growing brighter in my heart. For the first time in a while I felt completely covered and surrounded by the pure love and peace of God.

My soul felt so full, bright and completely satisfied…it’s hard to describe. But for some reason just knowing that I was LOVED BY GOD WAS ENOUGH! ❤️ That knowledge filled me with peace and Joy so FULLY & COMPLETELY. I noticed that I no longer thought about my inadequacies, my lacks, the unaccomplished goals, the things I’m not doing etc.

I felt that the thoughts of pressure that we sometimes place on ourselves such as “what should I be doing with my life? how can I be successful, make more money, look and feel a certain way and the constant; I’m not good enough, healthy enough, pretty enough, wealthy enough” etc….ALL of those types of thoughts just completely disappeared from my mind! They we’re all gone! & It felt so freeing and amazing.

I realized that I was experiencing the pure peace and Love of God. I could feel it with my whole heart that this is exactly what God wants us ALL to experience. This type of freedom from the temporary “pressures” of this world, to instead connect to His light and feel the lasting influence of His Eternal Love.

I fully believe that in the presence of God there is no pressure to “be something,” to compare ourselves or try to achieve the things that we desperately seek for, here in this world. The only thing that matters to Him is that we’re able to experience His LOVE, to recognize that we’re already loved fully and completely and that we’re able to act accordingly to what the love of God allows us to do for ourselves, for others and for Him on this earth. ❤️

Looking for comfort, peace or joy from anywhere else besides God, will never allow us to fully experience the true lasting peace and love that God can offer. The type that lasts even after we leave this earth. So, just remember, that the carnal man will always want more and there will never be enough to satisfy…It can consume our thoughts and our days can pass us by, having placed our ladder of “success” on the wrong wall all together. We instead want our ladder of success to be aimed at God! & At what HE CONSIDERS SUCCESSFUL FOR US ❤️

So, today I want to remind you that you’re already successful! Because you’re LOVED BY THE MOST AMAZING BEING IN THE UNIVERSE!!! The same one who created your soul and gave you the gift of this body. Can you imagine the type of Love that requires?…❤️ You’re capable of experiencing full peace and love because GOD IS LOVE! and YOU HAVE HIS DIVINE DNA. Therefore it’s within you and available to you ALWAYS!!!

You do not need to go looking for anything external to fill you. Because as you come to God, follow Him, and seek Him, your life will be filled. You’ll experience His light even brighter, His Love and peace more purely and you’ll be able to detect and let go of the lies of the adversary and instead be shielded and protected by the armor of God.

The more that time goes by and the world keeps changing, the more I’ve realized that there’s nothing more important in this life than to COME TO KNOW GOD. To fully experience being filled by His light, love and peace. To be able to have a humble heart that is willing to ask for forgiveness and to experience the mercy and the pure love of God.

He is the light of the world and He can be the light of our lives. As we choose to come to Him, to seek for His light, to pray with a sincere heart and focus more on LOVE rather than on lack, we will be better able to feel confident in His Divine love, we will invite more peace into our souls and be filled with daily strengthening light for our lives.

I hope that this week you can allow yourself to connect more purely to the light within you. Let God speak to your heart directly and most importantly to focus on His LOVE for YOU. I promise that it will fill you completely, give you confidence and remind you of the truly important things in this life. Our goal is to feel His love and focus on Love rather than lack. 🙂

Our physical goal is to fast for 2 meals one day and allow ourselves to focus instead on the things that our spirit can do. We can offer a prayer during that time to not rely on food but instead on our spiritual strength. We can offer our fast for anything that we may need, we can fast for the people who are suffering in the world and turn our focus away from food for a little while. Fasting also has some amazing benefits for our organs and cells in the body.

Come enjoy the sunset with us tonight at 6:00 pm and do something awesome for your body, Mind and Spirit. You won’t regret it and it will allow you to let go of negativity and instead leave you feeling renewed, peaceful, empowered and most importantly filled with the LOVE of GOD, for yourself, for God and for those around you.

Love,

I choose Faith over anxiety, hope over worry and love over fear.

These words can serve us in two ways: As an affirmation and as a practice. When fears arise, affirmations and our breathing can move us gently toward the light even as we face the darkness. They make us mindful of our thoughts and our choice to direct them with faith and hope. Choosing to do this over and over again is the practice, when worries settle in, we always have the choice to look at them through the eyes of love or the eyes of God.

When we feel stressed and overwhelmed we can close the door to the outside world and instead make our thoughts and emotions known to God. I promise you that He does hear and answer every prayer of your heart. (Maybe not always in the timing we would like, but HE does answer) He did it for me this week. He answered me with LOVE. & just as He answered me with love, I know He will do the same for anyone who seeks Him. ❤️

As we’re willing to surrender our challenges to Him with a brave, patient and open heart. Trusting in the God of the Universe. The creator of our souls. We will see that He will remove the stress and anxiety from our hearts. We have to practice leaning on HIM! & Not leaning on our challenges or on the ways in which we can mold our situations. We can pray to be able to accept those things we can’t control and giving them to God. & instead focus on the things we can control. On inviting God to guide us each day and replace all of the heaviness we feel with HIS LOVE, LIGHT & PEACE. ❤️

The LOVE OF GOD is the greatest gift in the world. Just to know that you are loved by God, allows you to remove anything else that makes you feel unhappy, anxious or stressed. Because the love of God fills and covers your heart and soul with peace. It brings an assurance that everything will be ok. The soul that is able to trust in God, is able to gain way more strength to overcome the challenges of life than those who place the trust on themselves.

It’s completely up to us to CHOOSE to exercise our spiritual muscles daily & to focus on His love. ❤️ It’s up to us to choose to place our TRUST ON HIM with everything that happens in our lives and to know and believe that with HIS HELP we truly can overcome all things.

So, Today I invite you to say to yourself as often as you need to; I choose faith, Hope and Love and when I do, my anxiety, worries and fears dissolve. My focus becomes centered on the highest good for my soul. I believe that all things are possible as I place my trust on the amazing love of a God who is ALL GOOD, ALL KNOWING, ALL POWERFUL & ALL LOVING.

I trust in His never ending love and blessings and I know that He walks the path of life with me and He will carry me through it all. ❤️ Every thought out of my mind and soul today will come from a place of LOVE. Love for God, Love for myself and Love for others. ❤️ TODAY I CHOOSE FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE.

That is our Spiritual hope for the week: To move from moment to moment breathing as deeply as we need to. Inviting ourselves to choose Love, Faith and Hope. Being compassionate to ourselves and others, and inviting God to be with us to guide our thoughts and actions from one moment to the next. 💛

Our Physical Goal for the week: Is to give ourselves the right nutrition, movement and rest that our bodies need to be able to function their best each day. Remember to come from a place of love in how you treat, nourish and take care of yourself too.

Tonight at 6pm Let’s choose to give ourselves more love ❤️ By making time for ourselves to disconnect from all the other things going on…To instead come and release stress and do something amazing for our Body, Mind and Spirit. We all need it during these times. 🙈💖🥰 & It will be SO Good for us!

If you feel that the physical portion of the class is not for you, but you’d like to come meditate with us, just show up at 7pm with your mat and meditate with us! 😍 it feels amazing & it will recharge us all so much! 🧘🏻‍♀️🌅

We all need to give ourselves the best activities we can, to help us strengthen ourselves physically, mentally and spiritually. Hope that you can make it and leave feeling AMAZING & connected to God and to yourself so much more! 💛

Remember to focus on loving yourself, on giving yourself the best nutrition and on allowing yourself to have moments of peace and quiet to recharge your energy and your connection to God. This will allow you to handle the challenges of life with a perspective that’s more aligned to God and where you can focus more on His love for you than on fear, stress or anxiety. God loves you! ❤️ keep trusting, believing and all will be ok. You’ve got this! 😘❤️

Love,

See The Beauty Of The Soul

Sometimes it’s hard to see the beauty of the soul in the difficult people in our lives. We all encounter people whom we have a hard time getting along with. We can recognize that our energies just don’t go well together or that we feel drained after spending some time with them.

In some cases we can keep our distance from these types of people, but In other cases we have to learn to live with them. Sometimes we have a hard time recognizing when we’re being judgmental of others, but as we try to become more aware of our thoughts, feelings or emotions we can take some time to see where our judgements are coming from and why we feel the way we do sometimes.

The truth is, that we never really know what the other person is truly feeling or what situations they may be going through or have had to go through in their lives. When we judge others this depletes our own energy and takes away our power. If we want to keep good, loving, positive energy within us, then we must learn to see ourselves and others with more compassion.

The word Namaste has a beautiful meaning. It’s a greeting which means; “The divinity within me bows to the divinity within you.” This is a beautiful meaning. If we were to practice viewing all of us with spiritual eyes we would see people differently. We would be better able to focus on seeing the divinity of each other soul way more clearly. We would be able to focus on seeing ourselves and each more in the way that God sees each one of us. ❤️

All of us are here to learn, grow and develop. We’re here to gain experiences and to learn from the good and the bad that we go through. The Buddhist have a saying that difficult people become the yeast to our bread. So, let’s allow ourselves to grow from what they teach us. We can become more patient, forgiving, kind and empathetic. Allowing ourselves to grow instead of being affected by the things that others do and the things we can’t control.

If we can learn to focus on what’s in our circle of control. Our emotions and reactions and to be humble, patient, and allow Gods divine light to guide us throughout our lives. We will be better able to handle all of the different types of people we will encounter throughout our life. Even to the point of being able to follow one of the most important teachings that Christ has given us.When he says; “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you” (Matthew 5:43–44).

God asks us to do this because He knows we’re capable of loving, forgiving and even reaching a point of being kind and loving toward our enemies. It seems super hard to do. But with Gods help and guidance He will show us where to focus our energies to heal our hearts to be able to accomplish this.

James 4: 10-12 says:

  1. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
  2. Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
  3. There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?

Wow! This scripture teaches us that we are not the ones to Judge. There’s only one judge and we have to leave the judgment up to our God. The father of our souls who knows what’s in our hearts. He knows we’re trying to be better and He will lovingly help us to become less judgmental and focus more instead on filling ourselves up with Gratitude for what He gives us daily and to fill ourselves with love for ourselves and others as we take it one day at a time.

When I was thinking about how we can stop judging, I thought about the 4 things that can help us to heal.

1. PRAY: God wants us to free our hearts and minds form carrying those negative feelings and emotions with us. He wants to help us heal! If we believe in His power and have Faith that we will help us, He will show us the way to turn our weaknesses Into strengthens. As we keep a prayer in our heart we will be guided to know what to do and how to react.

2. EYES TO SEE: As we practice having eyes to see the divine light within each person. Our eyes will be able to focus on the good within ourselves and others. Mathew 6:22-23 says The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness?…We must see with our eyes all of the good in others so that inside us we may be full of light. Let’s use our eyes to see passed the physical or the actions of others and instead try to see the soul that is inside each one of us. The person that God sees and the potential that He or she has in His eyes. God sees the potential in all of us. We can try to do the same for ourselves and others.

#3 BRIDLE OUR TONGUES: Meaning that we’re able to control what comes out of our mouths. Instead of gossiping or judging others we try to see the good in others. We’re better able to use our words to be more positive, uplifting and edifying. Not only with others but also with ourselves. We deserve to speak kindly and in uplifting ways to ourselves. Lets make it a goal for us to use our words to help us extend love and compassion to ourselves and to others as well.

& Finally # 4: TAKE CARE OF WHAT’S IN YOUR HEART. Our heart is the place where we will either hold on to things or let them go. Everything depends on what we CHOOSE to keep or let go off but when we see the good in others we will begin to experiment a change in our hearts. We will be better able to live ourselves and have a heart that is willing to release the negative and hole in the the good, the peace and the light m.
James 3: 14-18 Says:
14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly and devilish.
16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

Let’s choose to allow our hearts to be full of peace, gentleness, mercy, and everything that comes from God and that is good for us. Allowing the evil to leave our hearts and rejoice instead on keeping the good within us.

As we make it a point to use our eyes to see the divine light in others and use our tongues to speak words that are kind, uplifting and peaceful then our hearts will be fully changed and fully able to see with love the beauty of the souls around us. Once we choose to work on changing one of these, the rest will follow until we are full of the light of God within us. We must protect this light and allow our choices thoughts and decisions to come from this light. I hope that this message allows us to bring new insights and awareness of what we need to let go of and what we need to hola on to instead. As we learn to have a desire to change some things within ourselves God will provide us with the wisdom and guidance on how to do this. So that we may reach the potential that we have as sons and daughters of God.

I’m so thankful for each and every one of you who takes the time to read these messages each week. I pray that you will gain what God desires to place in your heart today and that we may all grow from these experiences together. I’m thankful to have each and every one of you in my life. You’re all such an amazing example to me. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your journey. We’re all a team! We’re here to better ourselves and to become a little more polished each day. Remind yourself today of the Live that God has for you and how proud He is of you as you try to do your best one day at a time. We can do this together and we’re here to support and help each other. 🥰❤️

Our physical goal for the week is exercise at least 2 days this week. thats the minimum 🙂 if you can do more that would be great! go for a walk or do something that feels good and it’s therapeutic.

Our goal for the week is to see the beauty of each soul. To treat others as we would want to be treated. To check our eyes for what we’re seeing in others, our tongues for what we’re speaking and our hearts for what we’re holding in to. Make today positive, peaceful, and a day full of light. You’re in control ❤️

Hope to see you tonight at 6 pm!!! Class will be amazing for our Body, Mind and Spirit. We will have an amazing toning and meditation to release stress and leave us feeling renewed and re energized. I hope you can make it and invite others to come benefit as well. You won’t regret it and instead you’ll leave feeling AMAZING!! Make it happen for yourself and don’t let things get in the way of doing something that is so good for YOU! 🙂

Love,
LILI ❤️

Be Present Today

Be here. Today, guide your thoughts back to the present moment with gentle focus and live fully right where you are. Just being present throughout your day will allow you to experience more peace and joy.

We often keep our thoughts focused on the past or on the future and we forget to just enjoy today. To be present and to be here, right now. God has counseled us in this too, Mathew 6:34 Says; “Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” In His words, we learn that He wants us to be present.

I want to invite you to purposefully be more present during your day today. Let your day flow with grace, and tune in to your inner spirit to allow God to guide you toward where He wants you to focus your energy and attention today.

Allow yourself to be open to welcome the light of God into your life. To purposely focus on not allowing your Mind to go to the past or the future, but instead focus on feeling the love of God as it fills you and as you invite it in. ❤️ His light & love allows you to be positive and to experience that inner peace and joy that can only come form His presence.

Today, notice what is around you and express gratitude for each moment you experience. Give thanks for your blessings, no matter how small they may be. Allow yourself to be open, kind and filled with love toward yourself and others. See the good in those around you and focus on inviting THE GOOD into your mind and heart from one moment to the next. Those things which you choose to focus on, will allow you to become more aligned to God, flowing in His light and being able to more easily enjoy the gift of TODAY.

When you are present there is a certain stillness and centeredness inside. You calm down. You’re better able to fully experience the NOW, and focus instead on what kind of energy you want to put into THIS moment. Knowing that dwelling on the past or on the future will only deplete the energy that you can give into this moment.

If you feel tense or stressed from one moment to the next, remember to STOP, close your eyes, cover your ears and focus on your breath. (I call this my internal ocean. & It’s my alignment to God. He is my internal ocean, who provides me with each breath as it comes in and out.) So, with each breath you can choose to inhale peace and exhale fear etc. As you focus on feeling and hearing the breath going in and out of your body. You remember to be thankful for the moment that you have NOW!

God wants you to come to Him & to take it one day at day at a time, one moment at a time. Remembering that we can give Him ALL of our worries and fears. Because He is not a God of fear. But a God of FAITH, TRUST, LOVE, POWER and of a sound and PEACEFUL MIND & HEART. He will help you to carry your loads and to make them lighter. Each moment is an opportunity for you to strengthen and exercise those parts of your connection and alignment to yourself to your creator. The choice is always yours and you can choose to make it the best you can for yourself and for those around you. ❤️

Another way to practice being present which we’ve talked about In class. Is by focusing on your senses more. We call it 5,4,3,2,1 (5 things you see, 4 you hear, 3 that you can touch, 2 things you can smell and 1 that you can taste) The more you Can describe, the better! Focusing on your senses brings your attention to the present moment. It allows yourself to re-discover the beauty around you as if you were a child, seeing things for the first time. This will allow you to live more in the moment and be more present.

If you have moments of stress during the day. Remember to bring your Mind back to the awareness of the power that you can have now to calm yourself down. Taking deep breaths and allowing your breath to fill your belly, is one of the best ways to calm down the mind and body. By focusing just on the in and out-breaths you connect to the present moment again instead of the past or future scenarios. Remember, that there is power in BREATHING!

With everything that is going on in the world around you…Internally and externally it is so important now, more than ever, that you create and build up the tools and skills that will help you to manage your mind, thoughts, feelings and emotions. It is a necessity that you learn to do those things that will allow you to create and have a deeper alignment with yourself and with God. Rejoice in the gifts that God gives you today. Live more and enjoy being more in the present. Listen closely to your inner voice guiding you and helping you feel grateful for each moment that you have. Use your breaths, your senses to bring you to each moment, letting go of all the other thoughts (because they are just thoughts) that try to intrude and disrupt the inner peace and power that you have now. Instead, find strength in the light, love and peace that God provides which surpasses all understanding of earthly things and brings lasting and eternal peace.

Buddha said: “The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.”

Also, Leo Tolstoy said; “There is only one time that is important – NOW! It is the most important time because it is the only time that we have any power.”

So, today focus your energy and power on the moments that you have control of. Be present, kind and loving toward yourself and others one moment at a time. Seek the wisdom that God has for you today, and live aligned to the knowledge that God loves you and wants to help you be more present In your conversations, actions and thoughts. The more you practice those breaths and bringing your mind back to the present moment, the more you will enjoy living today and the more power you will have over the distractions and judgements that arise in our mind. The power is here, Now!

Hope that you can make it to class this afternoon at 5:00pm. ❤️ To enjoy the outdoors, to release stress and give yourself the opportunity to strengthen your Body, Mind and Spirit and leave feeling renewed, peaceful and filled with light to help you throughout your week. Just so you know, if it rains we will go inside the building. But for now, we hope for good weather so we can be outside. 😊

Our spiritual goal is to be more present this week each moment with present focus.

Our physical goal is to remove sugary drinks and drink more water instead. & also to make time to move our bodies daily! Just 30 mins per day will help us physically and mentally. 🙂

Hope to see you tonight! Love you all! & Don’t forget that you’re not alone. You’re supported, guided and unconditionally loved exactly as you are. God loves YOU! and will help you through it all. Trust Him and feel His love and peace available for YOU TODAY.

Love,

Lili ❤️

Rest For Your Soul

As we experience the challenges, difficulties and heaviness of the world around us, we realize that we really do have a choice.We can choose to allow more negativity or heaviness to enter our mind and heart, we can choose to keep ourselves focused on the things of the world. Or instead, we can choose to turn our focus toward God, to allow ourselves to have a moment to take some deep breaths, be more present, slow down a little, focus on what we can control and most importantly TRUST IN GOD more than men.

God has given us promises and tools to bring us inner peace and to bring rest to our souls while we’re on this earth. Jesus said; “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”—(John 16:33)

So, we know that in this world we will all have tribulations, challenges, difficulties and pain. But, He’s asking us to keep our focus on Him and not on the world or on the things that may be going on in our “internal world” as well. It’s all about turning our thoughts and focus to the God of love and the provider of peace. We can take a moment to ask ourselves, What are some of the things that we can do to turn our hearts, minds and souls to Him today? How willing are we to look within ourselves and to turn our focus away from our fears, to instead look toward God for inner peace and rest from the burdens that we may be carrying?

Mathew 11:28-30 Says

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest into your souls.

For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

He wants us to come to Him. He doesn’t for force us, He invites us to choose for ourselves what we want to focus on. He tells you that we can learn of Him, so that we may come to know Him better. & by doing so, we will learn that He is a GOOD GOD. A God who is never blind to our tears, who knows our individual pain and all of the difficulties we’re each going through. He is never deaf to our prayers and is always right there ready to comfort us in the way that we personally need it. Just remind yourself by saying ; “He Hears ME! He sees ME, He knows ME, and loves ME more than I’ll ever know.”

We all know that life is short and temporary. Each day really is a gift and a new opportunity that God gives us to do better. Do we want to be constantly triggered by all that is going on in the world around us?… Or do we want to gain more inner stability, peace and strength in God? He is ready to provide it to any who SEEK HIM. The more that we’re able to align ourselves to Him, the less fear we will have in the world. We will be better able to make good choices, to be responsible for keeping our inner peace and be better able to handle the difficult situations that may come into our lives.

With God we can do all things and with Him we become STRONGER, MORE PEACEFUL AND STABLE. Even on a world of commotion and uncertainty. He is the one who we rely on. Our peace is attached to Him. Not to anything or anyone else. We all know that our world needs a little more of that peace. As our minds and hearts are more peaceful and stable we can be a light in the lives of our families, loved ones, and the world around us. Trust Him & keep your peace.

So, remember He’s got you! & HE ALWAYS WILL. You’ve got this! Come to Him & you will receive peace and rest. Focus on the light, love, peace and all the good that you find in TODAY and rejoice in the God that is the giver of lasting peace. Allow yourself to become stronger, more centered and peaceful in Him & feel the difference.

Hope that you can make it to class tonight at 5:00pm to continue on our journey of strengthening your Body, Mind and Spirit. This is amazing therapy for all of us. So, make it happen for yourself and feel the difference. ❤️

Love,

Lili
