Connect with God

How to Have a Personal Connection with God 

I believe that one of the collective goals of humanity is and has always been to seek the sanctuary of love, support, guidance and wisdom within us that is the birthright and true soul desire of every human being. 

If the promises of many of the world religions are correct, then oneness with the eternal and sublime spirit, which is called by many names, including God, is the most normal condition one human being could have.  Science has already proven that this spirit-energy is in us and everything in the universe.

And if our destiny is to grow into far more conscious and aware creatures than we are—which the world desperately needs now—this definitely means we need to have the chains that bind us broken so that we can continue to grow spiritually. It has long been assumed by many people that this will happen automatically if they daily following the dictates of their chosen beliefs. I do not believe that.

From my own experience and from observing the world at large it obviously takes more than observing rote rituals and penances.  It is more than obvious that the bulk of humanity is still at odds with itself and with the spiritual side of our natures.

However, the few people in modern times who have made this connection with their inner selves have deemed it the most important event of their lives, and they have shared it with others through the spoken and written word.  When something so wonderful occurs it is surely the responsibility of any individual to let the rest of the world know about it.  In this way we can be reminded that communion with God did not end in biblical times.

During the lengthy decline and death of my husband, I knew beyond knowing that there was a more loving, enlightened and life affirming way to accompany him on his last life journey.  I had never heard or read about such a way, but I was determined to find it.

I am an ordinary human being who now knows that this is truly the birthright of every human being and awaits only a flash of inspiration, motivation, or in my case desperation, that will move you to open to the most incredible experience of your life.

This is why I wrote the book, “The Heart Knows the Way – How to Follow Your Heart to a Conscious Connection with the Divine Spirit Within,” so that others would know of this natural connection with the eternal and sublime energy within every human being and everything throughout the universe.

In my journey I was led to open my mind and heart to the tender love and liberating wisdom that is everyone’s birthright.  I discovered the sanctuary within each of us where in spite of the mental, emotional, physical events and traumas of our lives there is the love we all seek, as well as peace, guidance, joy, wisdom and trust in life. 

In surrendering to love, we connect with the truth of who we really are, and touch the eternal and sublime something called God.

 

"Love is the awareness of being one with God"

Ten Steps to a Personal Connection with God

  1. You must have a true heart’s desire.
  2. You must have unwavering determination to never give up and never give in.
  3. You must be willing each day to go within, wait in the silence, listen, and be disciplined enough to do this for as long as it takes.
  4. Trust your heart – it knows the way and has all the discernment you will need.
  5. Your intention to have this connection places you in immediate alignment with your soul’s highest desire for you. You will be guided; you can depend on it.
  6. Know that what God desires for you will be in perfect harmony with what you desire for yourself at a soul level.
  7. The process requires conscious awareness, a conscious desire to follow the guidance and a conscious decision to make time and space for the process.
  8. Chances are you will be asked to stretch and grow spiritually. Have the courage to do this, as it is the opportunity of a lifetime.
  9. Persevere. Persevere. Persevere. Never give up. Never give in.
  10. Claim your birthright and have the courage to live as the fully conscious spiritual being you were born to be.
