Spiritual Guidance Is Life's Roadmap To Better Days

Spiritual guidance is no longer a luxury for ordinary people like you and me. It is no longer just for monks and religious people who intend to live a more intense spiritual life. Spiritual guidance has become a necessity for people whose basic concern is just to live and earn a living. For spiritual hunger activates even those who just want to live simple lives. Perhaps this is because they are living at a time of spiritual awakening that has come upon us, even if they are not fully aware of this.

Spiritual Guidance Is For All

We realize now that this guidance of the Spirit, for that is basically what spiritual guidance is, is a necessity in our day to day ordinary normal life. We need this guidance to get our food, clothing, shelter, education, health, and more, even the better things in life.

Before our era almost all human beings thought that the basic things in life like food, clothing and shelter, can be ours by our own effort, by working for them, and by acquiring them in one way or another. But now more and more people are becoming aware that these things, material as they are, have their source in the Spirit who brought everything into existence. This is the reason why those who teach people how to get rich always emphasize constant gratitude to the Spirit as the starting point of every acquisition of real and lasting wealth.

Contrast Between Those Who Have Guidance and Those Who Have None

We see so many people, countless in fact, who work from dawn to dusk, break their backs in never-ending toil, but have less in life than others who seem to just relax and play with their hobbies. Most of them do not even have the basic necessities in life, like enough and nutritious food.

On the other hand, we see a few who have more than enough of this world’s goods and yet do not exert as much as one fourth of the effort of those who break their health in working but have not enough. The difference then is not in the amount of work. Working much does not necessarily produce much.

The difference is in the pattern of their lives. Those who have sufficiency and more are guided by a Spirit higher than themselves who can enable them to produce more with less effort. Those who have not—even the basic sufficiency—rely on their own guidance and effort.

Look at the successful people, even in showbiz. When they are asked to comment about their wealth, they always refer to a higher power who gave them their luck. On the other hand, those who live in misery are also contented that such is what fate gave them. In other words, both of them acknowledge the source of their fortune or misery is from outside of themselves.
If such is the case, why don’t people get guidance from the Spirit on how to conduct their lives for the better? It is because they are not fully convinced that there is this guidance and that they can avail of this.

Spiritual Guidance Is Available For All

Hence people have to be reminded that there is such a spiritual guidance available, a guidance from the Spirit who can guide them into better days, into times of sufficiency, even of abundance, of less stress and of greater enjoyment of the fruits of their labor.

Indeed spiritual guidance is life’s roadmap to better days. Get it from him who created all and who loves you so much as to give you everything for your enjoyment.

How To Use Your Spiritual Gifts To Glorify God

Spiritual gifts are what they are, they are gifts from the Spirit. Because they are gifts, freely given, they can be withdrawn by the giver, the Spirit. They are temporary, for use only while we are on this planet earth. If you want to use them for quite some time to benefit others and you, use them to glorify God. How do you do this, how do you use them to glorify God?

Ways to Use Your Gifts to Glorify God

First, do not charge others for the use of your gift. If you have the gift of healing, do not charge even 1 cent for being used to heal people. You can charge for the incidental expenses, like for the transportation to the place of your patient, but do not charge for the healing itself. Freely you have received, freely give also.

Secondly, never use them to harm other people. Use them only to benefit other people. An example may illustrate this. You have the gift of interpreting languages. But you may be called sometime to interpret a language for someone whom you do not like, maybe one who has avoided you for so long. Do not give a wrong interpretation because you do not like the person who would use that interpretation.

Thirdly, make yourself available to people who may need your gift. Do not leave your house when you know people are coming to your house to make use of your gift, whether it is healing or giving a beneficial advice to them.

Fourthly, develop your gift. If you have the gift of healing, study human anatomy. This will help you explain to your sick patients what is happening to their bodies. If you have the gift of speaking in a foreign language, study the grammar of that language. If you have the gift of generosity, build a business that can benefit others, so that they do not have to ask money from you. They can earn money by themselves. In this way you are multiplying the value of the gift given you.

Fifthly, if you find it inconvenient to use this gift, return it to the giver. There may come a time when because of danger or because of your profession you may be extremely inconvenienced if you exercise your gift. If this happens, there is no harm in returning the gift to the Spirit who gave it to you. Let me cite an actual example.

A person had the gift of healing. But he noticed that there were times when he would be called in the dead of night to heal somebody a few kilometers away. Going to the sick person would make him leave his family which might face dangers from robbers. He realized that this was no longer good for his family or for other people. He returned his gift of healing. Today he no longer exercises this gift.

These are some of the ways you can do to use your spiritual gifts to glorify God. As you get in touch with your spirituality, you will discover your spiritual gifts and you will help in the spiritual awakening happening all around us. You will be giving glory to God.

Spiritual Gifts - How To Determine Your Spiritual Gift

You have a spiritual gift. I am sure that you have a spiritual gift if you are a human being. And if you are reading this article, then you are a human being and you have a spiritual gift. But if you do not know what it is, you are not going to benefit from it. In this article I will show you how you can determine or discover your spiritual gift.

It is one of the signs of spiritual awakening that people are searching for a way to find out what spiritual gifts they have received from the Spirit. The people’s spiritual hunger activates them to search for the gifts which the Spirit has given to them. If you are trying to discover or determine what is, or are, the gifts the Spirit has given you then you have come to the right place.

The Three Signs of What Your Gift or Gifts Are

There are three signs which show you what your spiritual gift or gifts are. These three signs are: 1) an activity which is easy or enjoyable for you to do; 2) an activity which you do well, it produces results; 3) it is of benefit to others and, consequently, to you.

Those are the three signs but those do not include how you actually discover the gift. I will discus this later. Let us first discuss the three signs above.

You Enjoy Doing It

The first sign that you have this gift is because you are doing an activity which is easy or enjoyable for you to do. It may be singing or dancing or healing or speaking in another language. The first two examples I just gave may be also talents. But talents are different from gifts. Strictly speaking, talents are inborn. Gifts are given when you are already of age or are mature enough to make use of the gift. But some so called talents may also be given as gifts. In other words they arrive late in your life, as in the example I give of singing and dancing.

You Do It Very Well

The second sign is that you do this activity well or are effective in this activity. You lay your hand on a sick person and that sick person gets well. You have the gift of healing. You sing and persons are moved to tears. You have the gift of singing. If you sing and people give you an applause, you may only have the talent of singing but not the gift.

It Benefits Others and You

And the third sign is that the activity helps or benefits other people and consequently it benefits you. You heal people and so you become helpful to others. You become a helpful person.

These three signs must appear together, not one at a time. They are present in every activity that is your gift.

How Do You Discover the Gift Given You?

Usually a gift is discovered during a crisis situation. You do not go around testing this activity or that activity to find out if you have this or that gift. You do not go around hospitals to lay your hands on sick people to find out if you have the gift of healing. If you do this, the hospital administrators may compel you to leave the hospital as a nuisance.

What usually happens is that you are faced with a crisis situation. For example, your neighbor is sick and the doctors cannot find something wrong with that sick person. And you called in just to visit. Before you leave the sick you say a prayer and as a gesture of help you lay your right hand on the head of that person. The person gets well, instantaneously or after a while. You do this again with other persons and the same effect happens. People are cured. You have the gift of healing.

I gave the example of the gift of healing because it is quite common and there are some who are of the opinion that each of us has the gift of healing. I also give this example because it is a gift which I myself have experienced.

But there are other gifts.

So, how do you determine the gift that has been given to you? Talk with the Spirit. Ask him what gift he has given you. Then go on helping other people. When you meet a crisis situation, you will discover the gift that has been given to you.

Another example. This guy pitied those who do not have a good, stable shelter. He built a housing project for a poor, depressed community. It got publicity. Soon other persons helped him with his project of giving shelter to people. He has the gift of providing shelter to homeless persons. In fact he has gone around the world providing shelter to people. You may know who this person is, because he is famous.

Discovering or determining your gift is like spiritual awakening. You wake up to the reality that you have a gift which can be most helpful to others.

Spiritual Gifts - What is Your Spiritual Gift?

You have received a precious gift. Yes, you have received a precious gift, whether you know it or not, whether you agree with me or not. It is a gift from the Spirit and the general name of this gift is that it is a spiritual gift, because it comes from that Spirit.

A Gift Can Go Unnoticed and Unused All Your Life

If you know this gift you are able to use it for your benefit and that of others around you. If you do not know what this gift is, it will lie there, unopened, unlooked, unused and you will go through life all the poorer because of your failure to make use of this wonderful gift.

It is like an inheritance. A parcel of land was awarded to an heir as an inheritance. But if she does not know about this deed of inheritance, she will go through life without getting the benefits of this inheritance.

Ephesians 4:8 says that gifts were given to human beings, not just to members of the Church. This means that whether you are a Christian or non-Christian, a Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, atheist or agnostic, or whatever else, if you are a human being, a gift was given to you by this Spirit. It may be one gift or may be more than one gift. But at least there is a gift that was given to you.

So, what is your spiritual gift? Let us have a rundown of some of these gifts.

A Listing of Some of These Gifts

Do you have the gift of prophecy? This does not necessarily mean that you can foretell things in the future, but that you are able to speak forth for God.

Do you have the gift of ministry or serving others? Some people just have the knack of helping others voluntarily without thinking of any compensation. Are you one of these?

Do you have the gift of teaching, showing others clearly and forcefully what you want to say? Some who took up teaching as a profession have this gift, but the majority seem not to have it. They can only repeat what the textbooks and other teachers said before them.

Or do you have the gift of exhortation, giving energy to those who seem to be lacking the drive to do a certain thing?

Do you have the gift of giving? Many philanthropists have this gift. But you need not be a well-known philanthropist to have this gift. You can give in your own little way.

Do you have the gift of ruling or managing things. Some have the knack of delegating work to others. They have this gift of ruling or managing.

Do you have the gift of showing mercy? There are people who are naturally compassionate. They cannot even kill a fly. They have mercy even unto the least of animals.

Do you have the gift of wisdom, saying the right word at exactly the needed time?

Or do you have the gift of knowledge, able to understand some of the hidden things around us like the mysterious laws of nature?

Or do you have the gift of faith so as to perform miracles?

Or do you have the gift of healing so as to cure diseases of body and mind?

Maybe you have the gift of discerning of spirits so as to know what spirit is working in the lives of people, whether the spirit is good or bad?

Or do you have the gift of speaking in a tongue foreign to you or of understanding a foreign language? Some people seem to learn a language very quickly. They have this gift.

Or you may have other gifts not mentioned here. There are plenty of other gifts. Like the gift of arranging things, the gift of cleaning things, the gift of humor, the gift of acting, the gift of singing, etc. Language itself, knowing how to speak in verbal or sign language, is already a gift given to you.

What Is Your Spiritual Gift?

It is time for you to reflect upon your life and recognize what gift or gifts have been given to you. It is time for you to have a spiritual awakening so that you can recognize the gift given you and take benefit from this gift. Your spiritual hunger activates genuine spirituality within you. As you are getting in touch with your spirit you will know the gifts given to you.

Great Advice Regarding Spirituality

At a time when spiritual hunger activates people to search for something that is permanent we see the signs of spiritual awakening. This is spirituality at its best. People are indeed spiritually awakening, are waking up spiritually, are conscious of the whole new world of the spirit. Some of you are getting in touch with your spirituality, are getting in touch with your spirit. And you are looking for a great advice regarding spirituality. I hope to give you this advice in this article.

Everyone And Everything Is Getting Old

You and I are getting old. In a couple of years we will be so old that our body systems will fail to function and we have to leave our bodies to this planet earth.

In the face of this reality we ask, Is there something that remains permanent, that does not grow old? If we only look at the world with our physical eyes we will have to answer that there is none. There is nothing we see that remains permanent and does not grow old.

But then we also realize that we cannot see everything with our physical eyes. There are things beyond the vision of our physical eyes. The love that exists between two lovers cannot be seen by the eyes. The depth of sorrow a person feels at the loss of a beloved cannot be seen by our eyes. The joy a father feels at the birth of a son cannot be seen by the eyes.

Indeed there are many things that cannot be seen by our physical eyes and it is among these things that we can find something that endures, something that is permanent and does not grow old.

Things That Do Not Grow Old

We begin with mathematical concepts which we learned during our high school days. In our class in geometry we learned that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. This was true in the time of Euclid who wrote this proposition 300 years before Christ. It is still true today, more than 2,000 years from the time of Euclid, and will be true centuries from now, although according to the theory of gravitation there cannot be an actual straight line because the gravitational force will always bend that line.

That concept or idea of a straight line is something that is permanent and does not grow old.

The same holds true with the rules of logic which we learned in college. Those rules remain true, permanent and do not grow old.

We immediately notice that these things which are permanent and do not grow old are ideas. They are not objects our senses can see, but ideas only our mind can understand.

But then we ask: Where do these ideas come from? If such ideas are permanent and do not grow old, their origin or source logically also does not grow old, is permanent.

The Source of Things That Do Not Grow Old

And this is where my great advice regarding spirituality comes in. My advice to you is: Search for the source of these ideas that do not grow old, that are permanent. If you find this source you will also realize that there is something in you yourself that does not grow old, but is ever young, ever permanent.

This something in you that is ever young, ever permanent is not your body because you know it is getting old every day and every year. It is not your mind, because you know that your mind is changeable. What you love today you may hate tomorrow.

If the source of ideas that do not grow old, that are ever young, that are always permanent is not your body or your mind, it must be something else. There can only be one answer. It is the spirit.

You Can Always Be Young

The spirit never grows old, is always young, always permanent. And when you live your life according to this spirit there is a part of you that is forever young, forever permanent.

Search for this spirit, live with him, talk to him, get ideas from him. He holds an infinite number of ideas and will always go on creating worlds around you. By living in the spirit you will always stay young, ever young with the passing of time even unto eternity.
