Be Like a Blade of Grass

Why don’t you take a deep breath and relax. Imagine yourself like a blade of grass, standing tall and beautiful. Whether you are part of a solitary clump of grass on the side of the road, or one of the many blades of grass on a golf course, or on someone’s front lawn—you are unique and very special.

God takes care of you just as you take care of the blades of grass in your lawn. You rake away the old, dry grass and make room for new ideas to come forth and be used where they are needed.

Let’s take another deep breath. Envision how you are one with God and the Universe, as you inwardly stand tall and beautiful like a blade of grass. Remember, you have the sunshine of God’s love watching over you as you reach up and grow. And if other people try to influence you against the truth and interfere with your growth, like the dry leaves and pine needles that fall on top of the blades of grass, remember that God has given you the power to be free, to be yourself, to be one with the Universe.

You are now at peace, for you can see yourself like a blade of grass. You know the secret of growth and you always stand tall and beautiful.

Thank you, Father

A writing from the ebook "Whispers from the Universe"

What is my purpose and how do I know when I do it?

At this time it has been a week since I introduced a shortened version of my seminar “Dare Yourself” to a Toastmasters group in a local correction center. I co-facilitate the group with another Toastmasters member. We meet in a room provided by the State operated facility for men that are incarcerated for minor crimes. They could be there anywhere from 1 month to 5 years.

In the middle of my presentation one of the inmates asked me this question, “What is my purpose and how would I know it when I do it”. It was a very profound question in which many of us seemed to be lost in the state of confusion. Keep in mind that these men ended up there because of poor choices they had made along the way of their journey; poor choices without knowing any different.

I pondered for awhile before I answered that gentleman’s question. Here is what came through as I was in Spirit (inspired). People have purpose and conviction mixed up.

When you were born into this life, that was your purpose. There isn’t going to be a lightening bolt come down from the sky and say with a deep voice “John, or Jane, this is what your purpose is supposed to be”. From the time you were born everything you did or do is on purpose.

For example, you eat on purpose to stay alive. You exercise on purpose to stay healthy. You put gas in your car on purpose to get from point A to point B.

There is a misconception about the word purpose. What they are really missing out on in their life is conviction. I tried to help him understand by explaining it this way; when you do something on purpose, it is followed by a result. Conviction is where you take charge of the choices and follow through with your heart. This shows your passion which equals a result----therefore your purpose. Purpose is nothing more than the true result of your conviction.

To get to know Slade better go take a look at his site, he's quite interesting. This is a quote from his site.

"I hear Voices…

In the context of psychic mediumship, the technical term is clairaudient.

On a daily basis, I receive messages, warnings, directives — and generally carry on conversations with — an attending pit crew of entities which are best described as my Spirit Guides and Guardians Angels.

I lovingly refer to them as my god posse; I usually address them collectively as Guardies [short for Guardians]."

He offers Spirit Guide readings, writes thought provoking articles, and has a great newletter available for you to sign up to receive.
