What Is Spirituality To Me

What is spirituality to me? To me, it is a close relationship with a power greater than me and everyone else I know. It happens when I take the time out of my day to stop and do something to add to my spiritual bank account. It can be a simple prayer, meditation where I get quiet and let God speak through me, I can attend a spiritual event where everyone is sharing their relationship with God or I can just be in the very moment enjoying the people, places and things God has put in front of me.

Spirituality is when the energy of my soul connects with its real father, God. When I am out of patience and the message I get is "Donya, how would Jesus handle this situation?" It certainly was not the way I was handling it. Impatience, frustration, aggravation, judgment are just a few of the things that take me away from my spiritual being.

When I get this way I realize I have split off from God and have wandered into ego (edging God out). Some people refer to that part of us as evil or the devil. I prefer ego because that is exactly what I am doing. Edging God Out.

I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am a spiritual being having a human experience. I am not a human being having a spiritual experience. I was a spiritual being way before I ever manifested into human form.

I chose the family I was born into so I would have the experiences that I had to be where I am today. I love where I am. I know beyond a shadow of doubt that God is with me all the time. When I let him. He is my father and fathers only want the best for their children.

Sometimes when life on life's terms hit you in the face it is hard to see God in the moment. That is because my fear sets in and ego has taken over. God has not brought me this far to drop me now. GO GOD....

Today I am grateful to have such a wonderful father who I know will always take care of my needs and many of my wants.
