Thank you that we can come before you to ask you for peace. Lord, because of lack of peace we suffer much. Because of lack of peace we cry out to you, asking you to speak it into our lives, in all the forms that it is needed. We ask you to speak peace between husbands and wives; speak your peace between parents and their offspring; speak your peace where there is strife and where communication lines lay torn. Holy Spirit descend upon us soon with peace in Your hand, and move our hearts to reach out for it, because it is in Your heart to give it. You are “the best negotiator at human conflict resolution in the universe” ...regardless of whether those conflicts are small or big in our eyes; You can resolve them the same if they are young or days-old. Help us make a way for You. Fill the gaps between us, with You. Your Word says that you “destroy the barrier of hostility between us.” Make that manifest, dear Lord. Heal the hurts and bless our efforts toward peace. Fill the breaches with “shalom,” putting an end to conflict and bringing about restoration to right relationship, to fulfill the complete dimension of that word.
i am very enlivened to do this and love that there are several of us out there doing it in conjunction with your group - it feels like neighboring whale pods, swimming close by, communicating telepathically.
I post this in appreciation of the opportunity to share and be witnessed in this 40 day commitment journey. I pray that I may be present in every moment to serve my Highest Unfolding and to the best of my ability to serve the Highest Unfolding of others. I strive to do this with consciousness and without judgment. And if I fail, I ask for God's forgiveness and support to allow me to continue in my commitment journey, one moment, one day at a time. May I know true peace, love, joy, abundance, harmony and perfect health in my quest toward purfication and healing. May I know how to serve as a divine channel and may God bless me and provide me with ample strength, conviction and courage to carry on. This I lay down as the ground for my 40 days of commitmentto be witnessed by all of you:
1. I commit to get up early each morning by 6 am.
2. I commit to taking a cold shower first thing in the morning and massaging my body with annointing oils to awaken and nourish my vital organs and systems.
3. I commit to sitting in meditation for at least 30 mintes each morning.
4. I commit to reciting my mantra every morning, noon and evening.
5. I commit to abstaining from all intoxicants and stimulants, including broadcast TV and Radio.
6. I commit to performing the Tibetan 5 Rites each day.
7. I commit to spending at least 15 minutes each day in nature.
8. I commit to one hour of body practice each day.
9. I commit to consuming a strict vegetarian diet consisting of mostly organic, fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grains, yogurt and cultured foods.
10. I commit to daily prayer and visualization of universal peace, love, joy, abundance, harmony and perfect health.
11. I commit to seeking out the guidance and counsel of others who possess and administer divine knowledge and wisdom.
12. I commit to sharing my experiences authentically and transparently with others who are in the journey to Highest Unfolding.
I thank the Divine in you and in everything to support me on this journey.
Blessing on all of us as we journey to the promised land. Keep faith and remember "Mana from Heaven", our needs will always be provided for, just believe! :)
i'm committing to ten minutes of sun salutations (2 or 3) a day. everything else i'm holding as intentions, but the ten minutes is do or die (at least not reach the promised land...)
I am a mother, teacher of Kundalini yoga and meditation, and Reiki healer. I also have an MA in Psychology and co-facilitate hospice groups for the newly bereaved. Keeping the heart open - no matter what! That is my life's purpose. It is a daily (life long) practice that gives my life meaning.
