I usually like to offer my morning prayers in my living room, or outside. where I can feel the sun coming in and I can just be still for a moment with God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recently had an experience with prayer. I was sitting on my couch waiting for an answer from God and as I felt the sun coming into that room, I also felt my heart begin to feel tingly and bright. I felt the light of God increasing in the room and at the same I felt it growing brighter in my heart. For the first time in a while I felt completely covered and surrounded by the pure love and peace of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My soul felt so full, bright and completely satisfied\u2026it\u2019s hard to describe. But for some reason just knowing that I was LOVED BY GOD WAS ENOUGH! \u2764\ufe0f That knowledge filled me with peace and Joy so FULLY &amp; COMPLETELY. I noticed that I no longer thought about my inadequacies, my lacks, the unaccomplished goals, the things I\u2019m not doing etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I felt that the thoughts of pressure that we sometimes place on ourselves such as \u201cwhat should I be doing with my life? how can I be successful, make more money, look and feel a certain way and the constant; I\u2019m not good enough, healthy enough, pretty enough, wealthy enough\u201d etc\u2026.ALL of those types of thoughts just completely disappeared from my mind! They we\u2019re all gone! &amp; It felt so freeing and amazing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I realized that I was experiencing the pure peace and Love of God. I could feel it with my whole heart that this is exactly what God wants us ALL to experience. This type of freedom from the temporary \u201cpressures\u201d of this world, to instead connect to His light and feel the lasting influence of His Eternal Love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I fully believe that in the presence of God there is no pressure to \u201cbe something,\u201d to compare ourselves or try to achieve the things that we desperately seek for, here in this world. The only thing that matters to Him is that we\u2019re able to experience His LOVE, to recognize that we\u2019re already loved fully and completely and that we\u2019re able to act accordingly to what the love of God allows us to do for ourselves, for others and for Him on this earth. \u2764\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking for comfort, peace or joy from anywhere else besides God, will never allow us to fully experience the true lasting peace and love that God can offer. The type that lasts even after we leave this earth. So, just remember, that the carnal man will always want more and there will never be enough to satisfy\u2026It can consume our thoughts and our days can pass us by, having placed our ladder of \u201csuccess\u201d on the wrong wall all together. We instead want our ladder of success to be aimed at God! &amp; At what HE CONSIDERS SUCCESSFUL FOR US \u2764\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, today I want to remind you that you\u2019re already successful! Because you\u2019re LOVED BY THE MOST AMAZING BEING IN THE UNIVERSE!!! The same one who created your soul and gave you the gift of this body. Can you imagine the type of Love that requires?\u2026\u2764\ufe0f You\u2019re capable of experiencing full peace and love because GOD IS LOVE! and YOU HAVE HIS DIVINE DNA.  Therefore it\u2019s within you and available to you ALWAYS!!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You do not need to go looking for anything external to fill you. Because as you come to God, follow Him, and seek Him, your life will be filled. You\u2019ll experience His light even brighter, His Love and peace more purely and you\u2019ll be able to detect and let go of the lies of the adversary and instead be shielded and protected by the armor of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The more that time goes by and the world keeps changing, the more I\u2019ve realized that there\u2019s nothing more important in this life than to COME TO KNOW GOD. To fully experience being filled by His light, love and peace. To be able to have a humble heart that is willing to ask for forgiveness and to experience the mercy and the pure love of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He is the light of the world and He can be the light of our lives. As we choose to come to Him, to seek for His light, to pray with a sincere heart and focus more on LOVE rather than on lack, we will be better able to feel confident in His Divine love, we will invite more peace into our souls and be filled with daily strengthening light for our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope that this week you can allow yourself to connect more purely to the light within you. Let God speak to your heart directly and most importantly to focus on His LOVE for YOU. I promise that it will fill you completely, give you confidence and remind you of the truly important things in this life. Our goal is to feel His love and focus on Love rather than lack. \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our physical goal is to fast for 2 meals one day and allow ourselves to focus instead on the things that our spirit can do. We can offer a prayer during that time to not rely on food but instead on our spiritual strength. We can offer our fast for anything that we may need, we can fast for the people who are suffering in the world and turn our focus away from food for a little while. Fasting also has some amazing benefits for our organs and cells in the body.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Come enjoy the sunset with us tonight at 6:00 pm and do something awesome for your body, Mind and Spirit. You won\u2019t regret it and it will allow you to let go of negativity and instead leave you feeling renewed, peaceful, empowered and most importantly filled with the LOVE of GOD, for yourself, for God and for those around you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lili <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>God is light. \u2600\ufe0f And I\u2019ve felt that light in the most sincere moments of prayer.
