My Personal 12 Steps for Spiritual Growth
01. I will judge no one, for when I judge another, I also judge myself. What I see as fault in someone else is actually an unresolved issue within me.
02. I will forgive myself for every mistake I've ever made, which will create in me the ability to forgive others, allowing them to also forgive me; for as I project, that also returns unto me.
03. I will love and accept myself as I am, realizing that I am not perfect and by that realization, becoming a perfect child of God, with an infinite supply of love to give unto others.
04. I will embrace every moment of my life --- the happiness, the sorrow, the love, the pain, and really feel every emotion for what it is, allowing it to touch the deepest part of me --- MY TRUTH.
05. I will thank God for every moment of my life --- the happiness, the sorrow, the love, the pain --- knowing that every experience I have, every emotion I feel will in some way enhance my Spiritual Growth.
06. I will look into the heart of every living being, knowing that there is where I will find their truth, their hope, their love, the inner beauty that lies with the soul.
07. I will enjoy the beauty, the good I see in others, knowing that everything else is only the physical manifestation of their tears, their sorrow --- the pain inflicted on them by those who see no TRUTH.
08. I will release all fear to God, for if I follow His Word, and His Path of Love, He will carry this burden for me. When I walk with Jesus, I HAVE NO FEAR.
09. I will move into the unknown with trust, knowing that every experience in my life is not always what I perceive it to be, but is exactly what God Wills for me; thus, I surrender and trust Him completely.
10. I will ask God everyday for Divine Guidance, Divine Wisdom, and Divine Truth; and then TRUST HIM, knowing that every decision I make will be guided by that part of God within me.
11. I will open my mind by believing that Miracles will happen in my life, for each and every one of us are living proof that Miracles do exist, and every act of love and kindness is one more wonderful Miracle.
12. I will open my heart by giving unconditional love to every child of God, for we are all part of ONE ! When I hurt another, I hurt the God part in me.
GOD DOES NOT CREATE INPERFECT BEINGS;
WE CREATE THEM WITHIN OUR OWN MINDS !!!
Jacob
