Happy Sunday🥳🥳 In the hustle and bustle of our modern world, there's a day that stands apart A day that whispers to our souls, inviting us to slow down and reconnect with what truly matters. That day is Sunday, a sacred pause in our weekly rhythm. For many of us, Sunday isn't just another day off; it's a spiritual oasis. It's a time when we can set aside our to-do lists and turn our hearts toward something greater than ourselves. Whether it's through attending a worship service, taking a #quiet walk in #nature, or simply sitting in #peaceful meditation Sundays offer us the precious #gift of spiritual connection. I'm reminded of a quote by Anne Lamott: "Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you." This #wisdom rings especially true on Sundays. By unplugging from our daily grind and plugging into our faith, we recharge our spiritual batteries and find renewed purpose. I encourage you, dear #reader to reclaim the sanctity of your Sundays. Whether it's through reading inspiring scriptures, joining a #faith community or simply sitting in #quiet contemplation, nurture your relationship with the divine. You might be surprised at how this weekly practice can illuminate your path and infuse your life with joy. How do you spend your Sundays? I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences in the comments below! As for me I'll be attending an event organised by my community😊.

I offer you floweres - a meditation for May Day. Today is May Day, the traditional quarter holiday of Beltane when my ancestors covered each other in wreaths of flowers and danced ‘round fires for fertility and rebirth. The rising sap of the earth is moving through us, pushing us towards passionate uprising around the world. AS we RISE, let us ROOT. In this passionate uprising… there is a deeper prayer for PEACE. The earth has already made the medicine for our minds and souls. So, today, in alignment with the turning of the Wheel of the year, I offer you this meditation: Close your eyes. Feel your connection with the blooming spring. The flowers know the way of peace. Breathe in hopelessness, rage, separation and despair. See all the people - no exceptions. Every power position. Every nationality. Every gender. Every religion. Every color. See each person’s unique perspective and universal humanity. Breathe out flowers. With the out-breath, offer each person the gift of earth-given beauty, freely given, watered with your heart and hands. … continue until you feel complete. The earth brings blooms each spring. It is an original ceremony. It is time to align our lives with the greater Ceremony of the One Life we All share. Walk with me on the path of Enlifenment: spirituality for times of collapse.

THE RIGHT WAY TO WAIT ON GOD 199th DAY OF THE YEAR, 2024 TODAY'S WORD FOR MEDITATION https://lnkd.in/dwSwydpe HAPPENING NOW: HOLY GHOST IS AT WORK PREPARING THE SAINTS FOR TAKE OFF Memory Verse: "But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength...mount up with wings as eagles...run, and not be weary...walk, and not faint" (Is. 40:31). TEXT: From James 2:20, The Scripture Says, "... Faith without works is dead." THE RIGHT WAY TO WAIT ON GOD Are you waiting for God to do something in your life? Waiting is a spiritual discipline because it allows each of us to more fully experience who we are, the world around us and the presence of God. It is not always pleasant, but it is necessary; and you must be very careful to wait on the Lord the right way and in the right place. The first thing to do when you are waiting on God is to make sure you are in His waiting room. If you have an appointment with a doctor or a businessman, you must be in that person’s waiting room in order to see them. God has a waiting room as well; and you must make sure you are in it if you want Him to meet you and give you His answers, miracles and directions. Waiting strategically can cultivate good fruit in our lives such as patience, perseverance, and endurance. We wait on the Lord to act - to deliver, to save, to avenge, to answer our prayers, to provide for our needs, to renew our strength, to reveal His glory, to do what only God can do. We wait on Him because HE IS GOD and WE ARE NOT. He alone can accomplish what we cannot. We wait on Him because we are helpless without Him. One thing I’ve learned as well is that waiting should not be a passive thing. When we’re waiting the correct way, we’re on the lookout. We talk like what we are believing for is going to happen. We act like it’s going to happen. We’re making preparations. It’s just like when you’re expecting someone for dinner; you don’t wait until they show up before you decide to start cooking. Most likely you start early in the day. You make sure the house is clean. You go to the market place, and maybe buy some flowers for the table, and other necessary things. You make preparations because you’re expecting someone. Well, that’s THE ATTITUDE we need to have while we’re waiting for God’s promises to come to pass. As you put actions behind your prayers, your faith comes alive and opens the door for God to move mightily on your behalf. YOUR PRAYER: Father, I choose to put actions behind my faith today. I trust that You are at work in my life. I will wait the right way with expectancy knowing that You are leading me into the path You have for me, in Jesus' name - Amen!

November 9 Daily Reflections STEPPING INTO THE SUNLIGHT But first of all we shall want sunlight; nothing much can grow in the dark. Meditation is our step out into the sun. AS BILL SEES IT, p. 10 Sometimes I think I don't have time for prayer and meditation, forgetting that I always found the time to drink. It is possible to make time for anything I want to do if I want it badly enough. When I start the routine of prayer and meditation, it's a good idea to plan to devote a small amount of time to it. I read a page from our Fellowship's books in the morning, and say "Thank You, God." when I go to bed at night. As prayer becomes a habit, I will increase the time spent on it, without even noticing the foray it makes into my busy day. If I have trouble praying, I just repeat the Lord's Prayer because it really covers everything. Then I think of what I can be grateful for and say a word of thanks. I don't need to shut myself in a closet to pray. It can be done even in a room full of people. I just remove myself mentally for an instant. As the practice of prayer continues, I will find I don't need words, for God can, and does, hear my thoughts through silence.

The Divine Hour: Why 4 AM is Perfect for Tahajjud There’s something extraordinary about the stillness of 4 AM. The world is silent, distractions are at their lowest, and your soul is most attuned to spiritual connection. This hour, often referred to as the "divine hour," is not just ideal for meditation and prayer—it’s also the best time for Tahajjud, the special night prayer in Islam. Why Tahajjud at 4 AM? 1️⃣ A Time for Deep Reflection The pre-dawn hours create an unmatched environment for introspection. As the chaos of daily life pauses, you can connect deeply with your Creator, pour out your heart, and seek His guidance. 2️⃣ A Gateway to Productivity Starting your day with Tahajjud aligns your heart and mind, setting a tone of gratitude and focus. Studies even show that early risers often have higher levels of energy and mental clarity throughout the day. 3️⃣ The Time Allah Descends As mentioned in a Hadith, Allah descends to the lowest heaven in the last third of the night, asking: "Is there anyone who will call upon Me so that I may respond to him? Is there anyone who will ask of Me so that I may grant him? Is there anyone seeking forgiveness so that I may forgive him?" This sacred opportunity for direct supplication and forgiveness is why Tahajjud holds such immense spiritual value. 4️⃣ A Practical Way to Beat Fajr Routines Waking up for Tahajjud naturally aligns with preparing for Fajr prayer. It’s a beautiful way to create a consistent routine for daily prayers, ensuring you never miss out. The Benefits Extend Beyond Spirituality Waking up at this time isn’t just about prayer. It’s a reset button for your mind, body, and soul. It’s a moment of serenity, healing, and spiritual growth. #Spirituality #4AMWisdom #PrayerLife #PersonalGrowth

HAPPY SUNDAY Sundays hold a special place as a time to reflect on our source, our beliefs, and our spiritual journey. In the midst of daily work and the fast pace of life, dedicating time to spiritual growth becomes an anchor that keeps us grounded. For me, today is about reconnecting with what fuels my inner strength and purpose. Whether through prayer, meditation, or quiet moments of gratitude, nurturing our spiritual life is essential.
