Dear Friends,

We are coming to the end of 2022 and we want to wish you all Happy New Year! We pray the High Consciousness of Good Will, Peace, Love and Compassion will continue from these Holy Days on into 2023.
Many of you will be participating in Burning Bowl ceremonies where you write down what you wish to release and what no longer serves you. Some of you may also participate in the beautiful White Stone Ceremony where a new idea, new thought or new focus will enter your Consciousness given by the Divine within you. This word will be written on a white stone for you to keep handy and look at throughout the coming year. I love these ceremonies because we really take inventory of our lives, past and future.
One other ceremony I would like to add to the two, is a personal ceremony of the present. “What is Mine To Do?” I believe getting in touch with our own unique gifts, our special talents, skills, abilities can fine tune our purpose, plans and actions. We are not here to COPY another person just because we admire them or feel they are a role model. We are here because WE, each one of us, is a unique GOD Being with a specialized and unique life.

There are times when I see a friend or colleague spreading their light to others, taking part in peace and justice activities, helping the homeless, providing homes for pets and animals and many more deserving ways to be in service.
I have to ask myself, is this MINE TO DO?

If I don’t get a heart bling, I think, probably not. When I do get a heart bling, I am excited and can hardly wait to participate in an event or create one myself. I admire those who do way more than I do in service, and yet I know when
I am planning an interfaith event or labyrinth walk, and/or standing up for others, I feel energized and know this is mine to do.

This coming year I encourage you to BE YOURSELF, BE AUTHENTIC in all that you do. You are unique with a purpose no one else can do.

Each Morning take time during your prayer and meditation time to:
• Light a candle (or votive)
• Affirm: There is only One Life, that is the Life of God, that Life is Perfect and that is my life now! I surrender this day unto you Oh Lord.
• Ask, “What is Mine To Do Today ?”
• Place your hand over your heart and wait for the bling as a thought, or feeling. Just know you are in God’s Hands because you surrendered.
• Your day may be simple.
• Your day may be complex.
• Your day may come with new opportunities. Follow up on them.

Only YOU can do what is yours to do!

Being Me,
Abigail and Steve
