Own Your Power

At some point in time, we all may have been guilty of giving up our power. We’ve allowed the opinions of others to validate how we feel about ourselves. In hindsight, it was not a good thing! We are so influenced by the perceived norms of society that we often cave to the trend. Sometimes the trend goes against what resides within us. We see things differently, we interpret things differently, we understand things differently. It reminds me of Noah, in the Bible. Talk about owning your own power! Can you imagine how he must have felt, day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year? He was a lone star! It would have been understandable if he succumbed the trend, the ridicule. If he had succumbed to everything around him telling him that what he was doing was crazy! Yet he had enough faith in his higher power and enough resolve within himself, to press forward, stay focused, and maintain his power.

Sometimes we have to stand alone in what it is that we believe in. Sometimes we have to go against the trend. Sometimes we see beyond the moment and discern a different outcome than what the majority may see. We have to stand in our own truth! Whatever or whomever you may deem to be a higher power, will sometimes drop a nugget in your spirit. That nugget may be a foreign concept to the majority. I think when certain common electronic devices were first introduced, they were a foreign concept. Some could not even imagine utilizing such a thing. Look how we depend on those foreign concepts today!

We each have the power to manifest those things that we desire in our lives. We all have dreams, and hopes. Things we have always wanted to do or accomplish. I am a witness that it can be done. At times it may seem unimaginable but if you can visualize it, you can actualize it. I have had visions of certain dreams I desired to fulfill. I took a day and simulated what it would be like to live in the manifestation of that dream. I then jotted down what I thought would need to happen or occur to really make this dream come to life! It was a powerful exercise because it helped me to see that the manifestation was more realistic than I initially thought!

If we have learned nothing else in the season of 2020, we learned that life and time are precious. I say this often because it bears repeating. Live now! Live today! You have a dream? Something you desire to achieve? Visualize! Walk it out! Write the plan! Begin the journey! Own your own power and manifest your dreams!
