Welcome to the magical world of transformation…

“What worries you?”

It is so easy to get all worked up and worried during this time of year with family gatherings and traveling.  So I thought it would be neat to share some of the amazing and powerful perspectives I’ve learned through Pastor Dave at the Center for Spiritual Living.  Here is my collection from my first visit:

• God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.
• Google “Dear Abby Holland Italy” – it’s a neat story.
• We’re trying to have a better past.
• Forgiveness is giving up trying to have a better past.
• How do you understand love? {my response: you don’t ~ you feel it}
• I wouldn’t change one thing about you.
• Prayers begin in gratitude.
• Healing is a change in consciousness.
• Prayers are answered immediately and everything else is nature’s way of catching up.
• The “problems” of today are the solutions to yesterday’s problems.
• Whom will it be revealed through? Maybe you.
• You have to let go of what was in order to allow what will be to be.
• What does your story do to your life and happiness?
• There are things we don’t know that we don’t know.
• You choose where you want to go and God takes you there.

If you’re a regular here at Simply Fearless, then you know that 2008 has been a year of spiritual search and growth for me.  Well, I think I might have found my new church home with Pastor Dave at the Center for Spiritual Living.  I’ve only attended twice, but it is an amazing community.  One step through the door and I felt loved, accepted, and welcome.  Oh and the pastor is a comedian.  Seriously.  At first, I was like, “How the heck am I going to get spiritual with all this laughing?”  And you know what? I got more spiritual in 5 minutes of laughter than I did in 4 months at another church.  What an eye opener for me!  And here I thought God was this super serious being in the sky!  So here’s to a worry-free holiday, a lot of laughter, and a powerful connection with God.

And so it is.
