We open ourselves to serve, and we are served. We open ourselves to give, and we receive. We open ourselves to lift another up, and we are lifted up. We open ourselves to give love, and we become love.

To live a God-inspired life, remain open to guidance. Let go of clinging to what you know so that your current understanding can be surpassed. Hold what you know lightly. Stay open to new inspiration and insight.

Spiritual awakening changes the focal point of our lives from having to being. This is a radical reorientation, one that is essential to living a fulfilled life. Now is the time for this reorientation. Instead of thinking about what we want or need, let us examine who we are becoming.

Seek out the soul’s medicine for whatever ails you. The quickening of the soul brings us back to life; it raises us up and heals what is dead in us—in our personal lives, our institutions, and our communal life. It gives life to what is burned out and what has lost hope.

The spiritually-dedicated life is one where we wrestle, like Jacob with the angel, to receive the blessing in all that is and bring it forth. We actively participate in our own destiny and that of our awakening world.

To meditate, use the mind itself to subdue the mind. This is done through intention, focus, and ultimately, surrender. Intend to commune with God, focus your attention on a single point, and surrender the sense of separation by letting go into the allness of God’s presence right where you are.
