A Daily Look Within – Day 0

When you talk about anything having to do with the Spirit, or emotions for that matter, you are in another realm or dimension where things cannot always be so very set in stone. This is how and why it is so very important to attain some semblance of knowledge regarding spiritual matters. When your very brain knows and reaches a higher state of consciousness, every movement and intention becomes strengthened, more focused, more involved, and more powerful. You become a different person than when you began your journey.

If it helps you to visualize what I mean a little better, then think of a person’s unenlightened brain as being like a matchstick. It may be spit and sputter and give off sparks as the person learns. It may even light up fully and last for a while and even be pretty bright. But the more you learn and know about Spirit, and all of the elements and your personal relationship with them and every other living creation, your brain’s light becomes more like the eternal flame. As it is constantly fed with more wonder and awe that you continue to find in the world around you, your own personal light can become like a beacon for others.

So just where do intention and prayer figure into the whole scene? Well, as you learn and grow, as you expand in knowledge, as part of the cycle of balance it helps to “use” this knowledge in ways that will help others to learn, or move others to overcome difficulties. It’s sort of like telling a wonderful secret…passing the information down the line…letting hopes, dreams, and ideas catch fire, take wind, flow freely, grab hold, and exist in time and space. We each have that power within us, just waiting to be explored, tested, and experienced.
