Genuflect at Impossibility
Spiritual Bushwhacking uses faith as divine compass to navigate life’s detours and unknowns. It’s a way to more effectively and easily fulfill your Soul’s Mission according to God’s Divine Blueprint for your life purpose.
Faith genuflects at what others see as impossible.
Faith follows God’s word, gut instinct, and spiritual intuition, instead of another’s opinion or society’s standards.
Faith pauses in prayer. Faith genuflects at God’s altar of divine creative potential and generous provisions. Faith aligns one’s mind and heart with Christ’s almighty power. Faith transforms doubt into courage, and turns dreams into reality.
Someone recently told me “maybe you should consider doing something that provides more stable income, and do your soul’s purpose later. Being single doesn’t help either.”
I wanted to retort: “and this is coming from someone who hasn’t worked in over three years, or ever had the grit and gumption to be self-employed?” Instead, I ignored the doubting Thomas’s unsolicited advice. And rooted deeper into the truth regarding God’s purpose for my life. I found my Soul’s purpose (writer, teacher and inspirational speaker) in my early 30’s and have been living it since.
Soul’s Mission and Divine Blueprint
God created me to be a writer, teacher, speaker, and commUNITY connector. I’ve been living my Soul’s purpose full-time since 2000. The past five years brought challenges like wildfire and mudslide disasters, cross-country move, pandemic chaos, job furlough then termination, another move, and another, and another cross country one.
All experiences which have stressed and blessed me.
The stressful moments helped me root deeper into faith. When I invest in silence and prayer, stressed commotion transforms into blessed devotion.
Blessings of emotional and spiritual growth are eternal assets and divine riches. Stressful moments have potential to be divine turning points and pathways to a new promised land.
A cross country in December 2022 landed me in Carefree, AZ. Yes, Carefree. The desert oasis where I am revising and renewing my career goals according to this phase of my Divine Blueprint according to God’s purpose for my Soul’s Mission. That “doubting Thomas” person gave me chance to renew my vows as a writer, teacher, Ayurvedic practitioner, and creative entrepreneur. In that moment, instead of debating someone, I genuflected at altar of divine possibility.
Faith and trust is the sacred intersection where God’s Divine Blueprint and my Soul’s Mission converges. Genuflecting at such a place, helps me merge into “thy will be done”.
Genuflection: a simple act of pausing and remembering. A sacred space where my energy amplifies, Spirit’s voice becomes louder, and other’s opinions fade.
Are you at intersection of a major life shift? A career change, move, health challenge? Something that seems impossible through lens of finances or practicality. Or, what others say is foolish or not sustainable.
If so, ignore the irreverence at the world’s view or other’s unsolicited opinions. And, genuflect at God’s altar of divine possibility. Realign your eyes, ears, mind, and heart to God’s Word- the best trail map for knowing and following the Divine Blueprint for your Soul’s Mission.
Make a promise to genuflect at altar of prayer whenever stresses threaten, or people judge your choice or strategy regarding how you trailblaze pathway to your Soul’s Mission, career path, and health goals.
Realign with Divine Potential and Take Baby Steps & Leaps of Faith
When the three stooges - fear, doubt, or procrastination roadblock your progress, pause and circle back to your heart. Place hands at heart, close eyes, and listen to your breath. Inhale faith. Exhale fear, doubt or procrastination.
This technique, much like prayer, becomes an echo chamber and reminds you of your Soul’s Mission. A source of Truth, reminding you that God always and in all ways takes all things (even the setbacks, switchbacks, and detours) and arranges them to conspire with your Divine Blueprint.
Many times over the past 5 years, I would initially feel discouraged at career setbacks and geographical detours, but as soon as I merged my mind with prayer and this technique, I felt enCouraged. My action steps became more clear and powerful because I was taking both baby steps and leaps of faith in courage, faith, trust, and patience.
Keep practicing this technique, and in time your baby steps will become BIG leaps of faith. Confusing moments of “um, what do I do next?”, will transform into powerful momentum that perfectly syncs with God’s Divine Blueprint and your Soul’s Purpose.
