A cardinal principle of the Spiritual Warrior is: It is not what is happening that is important; what is important is what you are doing with it. Thus the Spiritual Warrior says, "Regardless of what it looks like, regardless of my perception, I will use everything for my advancement, upliftment, and growth."

No matter what, you are always beautiful inside where the Lord dwells with you.

It's very sacred when we can say in our consciousness, "Lord, I receive right now whatever it is that you're bestowing upon me. You can touch it to me now, at this moment."

If we want to have Soul consciousness, we start concentrating our abilities into that. We start moving in and preparing the way. We see ourselves sitting and doing the spiritual exercises. The spiritual exercises, when we sit down and do them, are already being plugged into our level of consciousness because, as we keep concentrating on these things, we are preparing; we are creating.

If we have a clear intention toward a spiritual pursuit and are reading uplifting material or meditating on the intention, Spirit and mind will begin to converge. We achieve a heightened state of awareness, of knowing. As the point of convergence turns, our perception -- the way we see the world -- turns with it. We actually look into the unknown. When our moments of convergence end, we won't remember anything, even though we understood it at the time. (This sounds as if I am describing early senility but, trust me, I am talking about the spiritual process.) We know something happened, but we can't quite put it together. When when we return to the heightened state of awareness, that understanding returns to us, and we can't imagine how we could have forgotten.

You will never be given anything you can't handle.

Accept what is going on in the physical without judgment and you will be able to handle things much more successfully than ever before. Similarly in Spirit, accept what occurs and what doesn't, with no judgment, and that acceptance will contribute to your spiritual progress.

Perhaps you have noticed that blessings are extensions of one another: Loving is an extension of God, caring is an extension of loving, sharing is an extension of caring. As we are more powerfully invoking and expressing our God consciousness, sharing becomes a natural way of being. It is allowing ourselves to be extended.

When you awaken each morning, it might be nice if you asked for the peace of God to be with you and all you touch that day. If you are one with God's consciousness, no man can come against you. If you ask for this attunement each day (and it doesn't matter what words you use), it will change the quality of your life. You may find yourself talking less. To find the peace within, it's often necessary to become quiet verbally so that you can hear the voice of love from within that tempers all association in the outer world.

Moving to a higher level of awareness can be a little disconcerting and uncomfortable. It is unfamiliar territory. You might wish to go back to where you were. It's easy to slip back, to feel secure, comfortable, and familiar. Believe it or not, some people call that freedom. But all it is is a comfortable prison. Going back means that you are not handling and integrating your alignment with the Spirit -- which is continually moving.
