Blessings and Love to all.

One of my favorite things to remember that there is never a time or place where God is not present in all of our lives.  It's not a secret that for the past couple of days, I've been up and down with my emotions and not really understanding what the root cause was.  I think it has just been a jumble of things like financial concerns, the Holidays looming, my daughter being gone, and so on.  Yesterday, I received a string of emails from various sources, all of them unexpected, yet pointing me in a certain direction for comfort.  Instead of fighting it, I just flowed with it and each time I did, I found another piece of my own personal puzzle, solved.  Surrender and Release at work?  Absolutely.

Here is today's selection from the Angel Courage Book:

PURIFICATION

An Angel Reminder:  It's never too late to come clean.

The idea of purity can be downright intimidating.   Who but the Holy Virgin could be free of impurity?  But the angels would rather we take a different view of purity, regarding it not as a hopeless ideal beyond human reach but as a form of spiritual cleansing.  We know it's a good idea to bathe frequently;  why not accord our souls the same courtesy and care?  There are all sorts of ways we can purify our lives that have nothing to do with whether or not we are virgins or saints.  We can do service for others.  We can spread joy and hope.  We can refrain from judgment and practice understanding.  Pure actions, which are those taken in the spirit of love and concern, not only cleanse our souls, they also uplift the energy around us and gladden the angels' hearts.

What does purity mean to you?  Retaining your virtue?  Not having impure thoughts?  Or taking a proactive role in making the world a better place?  List some ways in which you could purify your life from the standpoint of your spiritual self and its effect on others.  One definition of pure is "complete and thorough."  What things could you do to make yourself more complete, more thoroughly part of God?

An Angelic Reflection:  As I uplift my environment, so I help to purify it.

Today's Cards:

Miracles

Card Meaning: Miracles are occurring all around you right now. Begin to notice them, and you will experience even more miracles.

This card is the angels' way of telling you to expect a miracle. Perhaps you feel that you need one right now because you can't see any other way to a solution. Be open to allowing God resolve your challenges in ways that will surprise you. You open the door for miracles when you become willing to surrender your fears to God. Visualize the angels carrying away the issue, and feel yourself supported by God's wisdom and creativity.

As you relax into the Source, you are assured that blessings are surrounding you right now. Be open to a miracle coming your way.

Nature

Card Meaning: Spending time alone in nature is important for you. Even five minutes in a garden would be healing for you right now.

By drawing this card, the angels ask you to interact with nature more often, every day if possible. This card also signifies that you may be happier living in a more rural setting. If you have thought about moving away from city life, consider this card as additional validation. Also, this card may be encouraging you to choose an occupation involving plants or animals. For instance, you may enjoy gardening, nursery or veterinary work, pet-sitting, or delving into the world of animal communication.

Your angels, and the nature angels, are helping you discover and give your gifts to the world. Help them to help you by spending more time in nature.

Archangel Micheal

Card Meaning: This powerful archangel is with you right now. He gives you courage and helps release you from the effects of fear.

Through this card, Archangel Michael is making his presence known to you. He is the symbol of true courage, stemming from knowing that God's love is the only power there is. Michael is letting you know that, as you make changes in your life and as you encounter challenges, you are safe and secure. God and the angels help you stay true to yourself during trying times.

Have heart-to-heart discussions with Michael often. Pour out all of your concerns to him. Don't worry about overburdening him. Michael, like all of the archangels, is able to be with everyone simultaneously who needs him. He has no limitations of time or space, so he can help you and others concurrently.

I still have lots of fairies and angels that need new homes too:  Retired Fairies from Faerie Glenn
