NOVEMBER 2008 “FOOD FOR THE SPIRIT”© Peace and much love! The divinity in me salutes the divinity in you, Word! The spiritual gift for the month of NOVEMBER is RENUNCIATION. The root word of RENUNCIATION is renounce, which means to voluntarily release something. Your spiritual gift of RENUNCIATION, gives you the ability to release all negative thoughts, words and actions from your human experiences. It gives you the ability to release anything that is not for YOUR highest good and greatest joy. When you take an honest look at your life, you will realize how it has been strongly influenced by your own thoughts, words and actions. The results, whether they were positive or negative, will manifest in your life. With all the changes happening in the world, this is a great time for you to begin to re-evaluate your life. Perhaps there are some bad habits that you’ve been thinking about letting go or some folks you know you need to cut off! Everyday is another opportunity to use your gift of RENUNUCIATION to let go of those people, places and things that have been obstacles in your path and have kept you from living the life you were born to live! Using your gift of RENUNUCIATION is an internal process that each person goes through when they are ready to experience more harmony, joy and fulfillment in their everyday living. Don’t allow yourself to forget that you have a divine mission to complete; don’t get distracted no matter what the world tries to tell you! As you eliminate negative beliefs, feelings, memories and hurts from your past, it’s very important for you to forgive and release the people, places and things involved in those situations with love, not bitterness. I know this is tough and for most of us, it’s sometimes easier said than done, however, that’s why God gave you the spiritual gift of RENUNUCIATION! If you are still holding on to any kind of grudges, large or small, you are blocking YOUR blessings from flowing to you because you have not used RENUNCIATION to release that hurt and pain. First, you must forgive yourself and then you will be able to forgive others! Forgiving creates a vacuum that allows your consciousness to become uncluttered and ready to filled with more God’s light, love and life! When using your gift of RENUNCIATION, become aware of how you are allowing your thoughts, words and actions to lead you. As you do this you will learn how to govern your thoughts accordingly. Perhaps this is what the Apostle Paul meant when he said you must, “learn to hold your thoughts in captivity”, or in other words, don’t just let your thoughts wander all over the place! Remember, ALL thoughts are active and in time will produce something in your physical existence!      When was the last time you truly relaxed, let go and allowed yourself to get quiet, so you could actually hear that “still small voice” within you? Right now is the perfect to do it and when you do, your spiritual gift of RENUNCIATION will allow you to release any negative feelings you have, wherever you are and regardless of any circumstances you are facing, so that you may experience living life abundantly! It is true, we let It be and there It is, Word!               PRAYER: In the name of the Most High God within me, I give thanks for another opportunity to be an expression of your Light and Love. I thank you for my spiritual gift of RENUNCIATION. As grow in my spiritual development, I now consciously release anything negative from my thoughts, words and actions! I forgive myself and others for any past mistakes, resentments, errors, hurts, disappointments, fears and doubts as remember who and whose I am. I go about my daily activities thinking, speaking and living as a child of God! As I become more aware of the internal process that is occurring in my life, I thank you for loving me unconditionally! It is true, we let It be and there It is, Word!             AFFIRMATION: Through my gift of RENUNCIATION, I say NO to all negative feelings, thoughts, words and actions! I say YES to everything that is for my highest good and greatest joys as I continue to fulfill my divine purpose, word!  SCRIPTURE: Psalm 107:2 Forever HIPHOP, Minister SERVER – The Hiphop Life Coach
