I'm about to complete my first month and this has been a transformation I will never forget. What started out as a physical detox has evolved into mental and spiritual one. I have so much energy that I am cutting my neighbor's yard and mines. I still suffer with insomnia, but that's a blog entry all by itself. I am now 13 pounds lighter and I feel fantastic. As soon as I thought I was in the clear all hell broke loose. All the things, thoughts and habits that I thought I had tucked away in the closet of my mind came out for me to deal with one more time.

It reminded me of this biblical parable:

There once was a man who lived in filth, he stunk of body order and most importantly he was accompanied by a demon. This demon taunted him and thrived in the confusion of mess and hoarding. Then one day the man got tired of dealing with this demon and decided to clean up his act... literally. So he got busy cleaning his house, his body and threw away all the trash. The demon was angered and had to leave, because he could not live in a clean environment. Once the demon left, the man began to enjoy life again and wondered why he had not done this earlier.

Some time passed and he had gotten use to his new life when suddenly a knock on the door startled him. When he answered the door it was the demon, but this time he was not alone. The demon went to and fro and found 7 more demons to attack the man.

Lesson: Making the decision to change, grow and transform means that a battle is at hand between the lower self and the higher self. The old will not go out without a fight and just when you think you have it all together... the worst has yet to come. So be prepared for the real aftermath and whatever you do... don't give up. Know that when something good is on the way, a tribulation will have to be overcome before the reward is granted. Can you weather the storm? Like all storms, the Sun will eventually shine through and victory is at hand.


What is 11:11

Have you ever looked at the clock and always noticed either 11:11, 1:11, 3:33 or 12:12? This is a genetic alarm clock that was coded into your DNA upon creation. It was designed to remind you of a very important date in your spiritual journey.  Each of us has a predestined time to AWAKE or ASCEND. When you see these numbers through synchronicity, dreams, meditations, addresses, license plates;  this is a reminder for you to soar and rise above the lower nature of reality.
 
11:11 is  what some call a Master number, which stands for the divine order of angels. You are the " : " and the angels represent the 11 11 at your side awaiting for you to call upon them.

Your point of power begins from within.

It takes a great amount of courage to accept responsibility for the situations in your life. This may seem difficult when you were not the only one involved in the situation, such as being slandered or taken advantage of by another. Long after the situation has passed, the memories of the events seem to replay themselves until it takes a life of its own. You might ask, “Why should I accept all the blame? I was the innocent one”. Yet you are the one left defenseless and in a weakened state. It is very easy to blame others or outside forces for certain dilemmas and by doing so, you are thereby powerless over the outcome. The weakened state is caused by an involuntary release of power.

 

In the act of accepting responsibility, you are thereby becoming empowered. By realizing that you created the situation, you are now able to re-create it. As long as someone else is being blamed for the problem, they are the only ones who can transform it. When you are not being the co-creator that you were designed to be, someone else will gladly do the creating for you. This will lead to you becoming part of someone else’s agenda and not that of your own. You’ll wake up one day and say, “how did I get into this situation?” This is simply because you stop creating or were not aware that you had the power to create in the first place.

Two of the most powerful words you can ever use is "I AM".
When you say "I AM" you are speaking a sacred language. You are calling on the Creator by its holy name.  So when you say:

I AM sick...

I AM tired...

I AM lonely, etc.

That is exactly what you will get.


Change the sentence and exercise your right to Universal power.

I AM free

I AM loved


Imagine if your Source of supply never ran out and each time you helped someone, you were actually helping your Source. If you loaned money out to anyone, your Source would be responsible for paying you back in full.

If your source of supply is your job, bank account, spouse, friend, lover or career; then there is a strong possibility that you will be disappointed. All these things must undergo constant change to teach you valuable lessons. People, places and things only play a part, but are not the Source of your supply.
 
When you tap into the Source of God, you then have access to the Uni-Verse. If the Uni-Verse is playing your song, imagine the possibilities. If this is the case, forgive everyone right now, don't look back and never worry about another bill. Be comfortable with today and look forward to a brighter future.
 
The next time you give someone your love, money, time or relation-ship; remember the Source of your supply. Your love, money, time or relationship will then be returned without limitation or lack. Resentment will become a thing of the past.

Psalm 91
1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. [1]

Take a TIME OUT from the radio, phone, Television (telling lies with vision) and all the thoughts of the day and be SILENT. This is the only time that you can hear the still small voice that has the answers to your questions. In the quietness can you tap into this power much greater than yourself. Leave the details up to God and release your need to know the results.

I will say [2] of the LORD , "He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."

In the HEART, which is inside the BODY is the dwelling place of God and the MIND is the receiver for communication. It is said that the Kingdom of Heaven is within (inside the chambers of the heart). We have been deceived into relying on physical things to supply what only the spiritual can give. It is IN GOD WE TRUST, not in the paper money that the words are written on.


3 Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.

Today we are living in a world full of diseases (dis-eased, stressed). Remember, there is no disease that can not be cured, if you are trusting in a power of God. If the doctor says that “in most cases…”, you tell the doctor that in GOD’S cases there is no failure. It is as simple as that.






As most of you know I have developed a close and intimate relationship with the angels. This started when I was about 28 years old and I had not learned how to distinguish between the voice of my ego and my higher self. I was told spiritually that it was time for me to leave the comforts of my home, but I was still in the infancy of my spirituality and I quickly dismissed the warning as a figment of my imagination. So I stayed and held tightly to what I knew was safe. Shortly after I began to cough. At first, I figured this was just some kind of virus going around. Then the cough got worst and I began to have episodes where I could not breathe.

I immediately did what anyone else would do and go see the doctor. They quickly whipped out the prescription pad after speaking with me an astonishing 30 seconds and wrote me a prescription for a codeine cough syrup. I did not realize this was the same syrup that all the rappers so eloquently speak of in their lyrics. Shortly after taking the prescription, I completely understood the philosophy behind the addiction. I felt like the bionic man and everything started to play out in slow .... motion. I sat there on the bed for a while and eventually I ended up in the hallway with nothing on but a belt and some socks on.

Weeks later, the cough still did not go away and the doctors began prescribing me inhalers and steroids to treat my violent asthma-like attacks. Finally the doctors gave up and could not figure out what I had come down with. It never crossed my mind that anything that can not be explained by man is spiritually related. I had lost so much weight and could not keep my job. I was still designing websites, but I barely could sit up in the chair for long periods of time. A month had passed and my attacks were a common occurrence. Nothing worked to treat my symptoms and I was increasingly coming weaker and weaker.

That's it... I can't take it any longer. I called my soul friend to come pick up my two girls, because honestly I was ready to cross over where there would be no more pain. She quickly came to get the girls and I laid down in the bed and read the 91st chapter of Pslams. "For He shall give His angels charge over thee to keep thee in all thy ways". Then the cough came worst than I had ever experienced and I crawled to the bathroom floor in an effort to reach the toilet seat. My hands slipped and my face hit the cold tile on the floor. I could not move and then I began to feel a warm sensation running down my legs. I knew this was it and this was how I was going to die.

The only thing I could control was my eyes and I slowly opened them to see my English Bulldog, Rocco sitting in front of me with his nuts in my face. There was nothing I could do, but lie there helpless. Things began to get blurry and I closed my eyes with hopes that this would all end soon.

Camille ..... Camille, can you hear me? Open your eyes my child, said this soft still voice. I opened my eyes expecting to see Rocco, but as my vision cleared there in front of me was the most powerful blue eyes I had ever encountered. Work with me as I try to explain something that can not be explained. His skin was not Caucasian white, but snow white with sparkles of translucent shimmers like the stars in the night sky. His hair was white and course like the hair on a horse or lion. His face was down on the ground with mines, which made us see eye to eye.
