One of those F word is forgiveness. I have \u00a0found by simply detaching from what happened and forgiving those who may have hurt you \u00a0and forgiving them is a very freeing experience and it unlocks those emotional blockages that may have been holding me back. In forgiving you remove things that may have stopped you from moving forward. In forgiving others you also want to forgive yourself while also seeking forgiveness. It is when we forgive and are forgiven that we can rise above all the challenges that have been put before us. The hardest thing we will ever have to do if we are to be truly spiritually enlightened is to forgive and seek forgiveness.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sp.yimg.com\/ib\/th?id=JN.N5vVdBX2eT6nRIHkKE24QQ&amp;pid=15.1&amp;P=0\" alt=\"... Father Forgive Them, Because They Do Not Know What They Are Doing\" \/>Many times in our life we must seek forgiveness for we didn&#8217;t know what we were doing and we didn&#8217;t look beyond the act to understand the consequences. As we evolve in our spirituality we must remember that we are not perfect and that no one else is perfect and mistakes will be made, people will do things that hurt us, but we must remember we are not forsaken we are redeemed and GOD knows our name. If you believe you have been wronged take a moment to forgive if you feel you may have wronged someone seek forgiveness. \u00a0Sometimes simply writing a letter of forgiveness and sealing it in an envelope can be very liberating. In many cases writing a letter seeking forgiveness can be liberating. \u00a0Be prepared when you forgive or seek forgiveness for your life to change because when you ask for forgiveness the other people must take a look at the role they played in everything and sometimes they are not ready to be accountable. Many times we get caught up in the blame game and this hinders our ability to grow spiritually so stop blaming others and look at the role you played and move on by using a new F Word, forgiveness.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sp.yimg.com\/ib\/th?id=JN.DLPy8AmPp3B1o4C9tBdVSA&amp;pid=15.1&amp;P=0\" alt=\"flexibility\" \/>Another F Word that I have come to incorporate into my daily life while on my spiritual journey is flexibility. Over the last week my plans have been changed on several occasions. Like today I received a call from \u00a0my doctor&#8217;s office to reschedule my appointment. In the past I would have been angry and looked at this rescheduling as an inconvenience but today I took it as a sign that GOD had better plans for me. \u00a0I then went to do my laundry and when I finished went to Starbucks and there was no place to sit so I walked across to Walgreens and had my blood pressure checked. I then went back to Starbucks and there was a place to sit and plug in my lap top. \u00a0I have come to understand that when you over plan you are bound to have what can be perceived as disappointment or you can be flexible and allow things to unfold as GOD had intended all along. The willingness to change plans and be flexible shows great personal, professional, and spiritual growth. Look at how you react to change and remember to adopt another F WORD, Flexibility.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sp.yimg.com\/ib\/th?id=JN.G9aZ2542T1c5TgLrLZWlVw&amp;pid=15.1&amp;P=0\" alt=\"Fellowship\" \/>I remember going to synagogue on Friday Nigh and participating in ONeg Shabbat which was a time after service for people to break bread, praise GOD, and simply share. In church they called this fellowship. This F Word, Fellowship is very important as the more we get together and share we see that we are more alike than different. When we get together and fellowship we have the opportunity to get to make lasting friendships that will help us change the world one community at a time.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sp.yimg.com\/ib\/th?id=JN.jGIl3qx%2foPZj%2fIMVcykKuw&amp;pid=15.1&amp;P=0\" alt=\"friendship-heart\" \/>Another important F Word is Friendship. Along our spiritual journey it is important to find friends who will be there for you through all the good times but more importantly through the challenging times. Many want to ride in the limo but few want to ride with you on the bus. Find those who will ride the bus with you. Find the ones who will lift you you and then in return become a lifter for someone else.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4HpVq1b6f_E\" width=\"300\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>\u00a0It is when we have friends who truly are there to help us that we are able to thrive. GOD will put people into your life who become friends so as to help you evolve and to become the person GOD wants you to become.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AOXT7AN1C3c\" width=\"300\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>May you have peace, love, joy, and prosperity in your life.
