I have spiritual guidance in my life( the unseen) but I can hear it & the other day it turned on the remote. I think I needed to watch this show.
I also see things ( spiritual things) and feel the presence of God & I believe he shows me things. I believe he protects me with his white light. Do other people have these experiences??

It's good and all so nice to hear what others from this club think about God.
For me of course am mixed,
my parents bought me up in a loving Christian home,every Sunday I went to Sunday school,we prayed at meal times and when we went to bed.
Year 8 I was sent to a Christian school were they were full on trendy and spoke in tongues and had the laying of the hands. Well I got laying of the hands via a teacher.
Next my pregnancy at 16 everyone wanted me to get rid of it. Me god must want me to have the baby otherwise I wouldn't be pregnant.
Then all the rest of my life,death,cancer,children,scares,drug,sex,suicide,pain,wrong doings,etc.
Where was that almighty God to help anything,anybody. How can all these evil things happen in the world.
He is worthless as he lets people suffer.
The only God I see is in the nature around us.
I truly don't think it gets better than this,
therefore is the problem no one lives in the NOW

Hi Dory,
U r entitled to your opinion. Spirituality can mean other things, not just God.
Yes,life can give us many hard knocks & curve balls & we r entitled to b angry about them, a normal human emotion.
The nature around us, to me is spirituality.
I hope u get to deal with everything that comes your way with the help of spirituality or a comforting hug, whatever helps hey.

Hey yeah ,sorry if I sounded cranky.not at you.
just hurt ,
I need to get back to the now,cause that's what it is all about for me.
a tree swaying in the wind,a child with a smile, whales breaching out of the water,a kind jester to someone less fortunate.

Like you I was brought up in a religious household - ironic given what they did to me
The people at the church were self centred, two faced hypocrites , the ministers son assaulted me age 13 and said I came onto him.
i know this is not the case in all religions/!church , and I will always believe in God as this is how i was brought up.
I choose as I said earlier to appreciate my environment, Be kind to others and only surround myself with people who are good for my mental health

Hey Dory,
Believe me I am no Saint- I was bitter for a very long time, but that just sucks the life out of you . For what ? It doesn't make the perpetrator feel anything because people like that don't have empathy . I have tons of unresolved feelings, questions that may never be answered so for now I have to accept what is and move on , or stagnate and then they win.
Dory you cant change the past, whether you're at fault or someone else is. People make mistakes. You forgive or are forgiven and then work through it - or not .
Dory you have too much to live for , too much to give . You are a generous, compassionate soul . Don't miss out on the life you deserve
your friend
Stressless

Dear white Knight,
I listened to the perfect instrument.
Amazing
It brought me back to the importance of the simpler things in life, meditation & spending time in nature.
It also had a calming effect and a couple tears trickled down my cheek.
Yday I briskly walked by the ocean, to me another form of spirituality. There were I think hari Christianers dancing to beats and harmony on a cliff bear foot in a state of bliss. I sat and watched and absorbed.
Thanku for sharing that calming music white knight. I'm sure I'll listen again and again.
Have amazing blissful moments today ! 🙂

Spirituality;
The quality of being concerned with the human spirit as opposed to material of physical things.
The shift in priorities allows us to embrace our spirituality in a more profound way.
