Have you met your own inner power yet? Or are you still struggling with finding and connecting with the spark of divinity within you? Perhaps you are not sure what your inner power, that spark of divinity we all have, actually is, or how to recognize it when you stumble upon it. Quite a lot of the confusion and misinformation surrounding your search for your own spirituality and connection to the Source is caused by the words used to describe something totally spiritual.

It is almost impossible to describe spiritual connections or flashes of Divine insight with language that we use to describe our everyday feelings and tasks. One of the real problems is that our language and use of it was originally created by tribal agreement on how to recognize the sights in front of them. They had no need to search for a spiritual connection or an understanding of the Source. It was all around them and a daily part of their lives. They felt it, recognized what it was and knew how to honor its presence in their own way. Words didn't matter. And they still don't.

When you start your journey deep into the miracle that defines you to the Universe, you will encounter spiritual revelations that you always felt or were aware of, but could not explain to anyone. That probably won't change, but it will matter less and less.

Before you get too deep into this journey into your own spirit, you should consider whether or not you know what it means to be spiritually powerful. Don't let the word "powerful" scare you any. We are all powerful in our own way. What you are feeling when you touch the Source is the Essence of the real you and the power you can access any time you want to.

Debates abound on what to call that Source and none of the answers matter one bit. Words are not feelings and definitely not a reflection of the spiritual core of your being. You will know it when you reach your own spiritual destination.

It is a sad state of affairs that most people are so battered by the state of the world they live in and the pile of problems in their own lives that they have lost the recognition of their own spiritual power. They feel empty, disconnected and lonely, even in a crowd. If you feel that way, your sense of lack of power comes from an inability to find your personal Source of power.

Spiritually powerful people have awakened their own sense of the Source and are comfortable in their private understanding of the miracles that surround them. They know and feel the actual Essence of that Source and let it freely exist within them. They are unafraid.

Spiritually powerful people are:

• Centered and secure with their knowledge

• Guided by the spirit within and connected to it

• Confident and courageous…not afraid of the Source

• Perceptive and insightful, while allowing others to find their own way to their spirit

• Considerate and compassionate, sending true love and caring to all in need

• Secure with their life purpose and following the path of enlightenment

Would you like to follow their example and reach that same level of contentment for yourself? It's easier than you think to move yourself to the same path spiritually awakened people travel.

Here are some simple ways to start:

#1…Meditation. This is one of the easiest and best ways to connect with your spiritual self. Spiritual wanderers, like most of us are at one time or another, tend to complicate simple processes. Productive meditation is better when it is simple and serene.

Just sit quietly in a comfortable chair, close your eyes, breathe deeply and slowly while turning your attention inward. Let everything rushing around inside you go. Release it all and focus on your own silence. Just BE one with your Universe.

The longer you do this, the better you will get at it. You will feel more centered, a deep serenity and totally connected to your inner power of the Universe.

#2..Spending Time In Nature. When you enter Nature, no matter how small a piece of it, you will be standing dead center in the Essence of the Source. The raw power of the Universe and its reflection will wrap itself around you and fill you full of wonder, if you will simply listen and feel.

Have you ever hugged a tree? Or had a conversation with a flower flashing its colors to get your attention? I certainly hope so. If not, you are missing out on a direct connection with the most powerful force you will ever experience. Try it! Don't be surprised if the tree hugs you back or the flower says, "Hello.".

You can feel the energy field, or "life force," by taking a walk through a park or forest and quietly listening to the sounds all around you. All things have an energy field around them and emit signals to those who are sensitive enough to listen. You will increase your spiritual power just by being still and listening to the energy. Just listen; it will find you.
