Divine Time

Have you ever given a few hours out of the year to be of service to the Divine?

The first time I was drawn to do this, I heard myself, ego, say, “This is stupid.” “You’re wasting your time.” “Why would the Divine need you to be of service?” and on and on and on…. Then I remembered what one of my spiritual teachers told me in the past: “The ego will always have reasons to not do something that could lead to spiritual growth.” So, I cleared my space, set my intention to be of service to the Divine for the next few hours, and followed the spiritual guidance that was given. Well, they were really testing my commitment. I was guided to drive to different places that was opposite to where I thought I would be going, was sent to the grocery store to buy things. All along hearing my ego stating things like “See, I knew this would be a waste of time.” as more time passed by. But I still kept bringing myself back to my intuition to clearly listen to Spirit.

While I was in the grocery store, they guided me to buy a thing of hot soup, even though I would not have normally done so. I got to my vehicle and was guided to eat the soup while sitting there and after a few minutes Spirit said turn the vehicle on and roll down your window… okay, I did so. Back up a little bit, but not all the way out of the parking spot. Okay, I look behind me, no one was there so I backed up a little bit. “Stop.” I stopped. “Look out your window.”

I look out my driver’s side window and there was a father in the back seat of his car holding his young son who looks to be struggling in some way. The father had a grimaced look on his face and I asked him if he was okay. He explained to me that his son had just finished dental surgery and was waiting for his son to fully wake up. His body was tense with fear and I said exactly what his spiritual team requested me to say. He relaxed and his son was able to nod and shake his head in response with his eyes closed. Then, as they were both in a healthier mental state, Spirit guided me to head home. Now, I could have listened to my ego and not do the being of service time. I could have stunted my inner awareness’ chance to grow and expand by not using my intuitive muscle that is in alignment with the Highest Divine Good for Divine all, but I didn’t. I went all in.

If you have been thinking about how to be of service, take a breath, clear your space and let Spirit know you are ready to be of Divine Service for the next __ hours.
