Healing Messages 1.89 – Receiving the best spiritual education

I am so grateful for my introduction to a spiritual vocabulary when I was very young.

I have grown up with words like infinite, divine, harmonious, eternal, and divine intelligence.

I appreciated the spiritual lessons of the Bible stories.

I learned to trust the qualities of character in the Ten Commandments.

Later, I found that the Book of Virtues by William Bennet, came from a distillation of wisdom from many different religions and philosophies.

I love that they are universal.

It tells me what we all have in common.

We can all practice uplifting qualities of character in our everyday interactions with each other.

At one point, I decided to practice the qualities I wished to attract.

I made a list of 200 qualities of character, and began to think about them.

I became more conscious of how much I judged other people, so I started appreciating them instead.

I started to think of us all as precious and beautiful.

I looked up dictionary definitions and wrote them down in my journal.

I became more and more focused on what I was expressing rather than what was coming in to me.

Of course, what was coming in to me changed also.

I became more creative in my teaching profession.

This led me to open up my own Studio where I was appreciated and sought out.

When I went through a long emotional crisis as repressed memories surfaced, I studied more rigorously.

I wanted to be able to express my Highest Nature, not be dragged down.

I journaled my way to freedom tiny step by tiny step.

I created “meditation drawings” to calm my panic attacks.

My writing and art became my spiritual path to freedom.

I am a grateful living witness to the success of this path.
