my spiritual education/resolution

cartoons, computers, preachers, greek, geek

I must confess I never finished college. I have about 3 years of college in along with a 1 year computer technology certification. I then used this education to gain me opportunities in the business world that combined with hard work landed me several nice positions in the world of computers.
Of course that is now in my rear view mirror as I moved away from the white collar world of computers to a profession where I wear stripped shirts accessorized with a referee whistle. No regrets really, in fact I am thankful for the career opportunities God has allowed me over the years to support my family.

But now let me segue to my SPIRITUAL EDUCATION. I have been reflecting lately on how little time I still spend on my spiritual education all while I desire a more intimate relationship with the God of the universe. Educationally speaking I believe I have accomplished a spiritual 2 year associates degree CRAMMED into my 57 years of life on Earth.
So here comes another new year right around the corner. Time for a New Years resolution for intimacy with God that I do not break like a bad fad diet. What if in 2015 I became a spiritual success story. What if in 2015 I understand the spirit of God better, understood His word better, listened to Him when I prayed, and was more generous in my service of Him? WHAT IF?
What if more important than losing a few pounds was a deeper relationship with God?

There are New Years Resolution success stories where people do lose weight and keep it off.. so why can't I be a spiritual success story becoming more sensitive to His will by spending more REAL time with Him. Even at my grand 'old' age of 57.
This is my prayer, this is my resolution.
May God bless each of you on your spiritual journey. May His will for your life in 2015 be more than a continuation of an underachieving spiritual education. AND.. may this education be more than head knowledge but instead a blessing of your heart and soul in ways that are BEYOND YOUR DREAMS.

I've always been interested in spirituality and the fascinating world of religions. I'm not saying I have a very deep interest in them, but there are many things that fascinate me about religion. I think that this might be one of the reasons why I have become so passionate about spiritual topics such as love, relationships, self-development and other subjects like these.1

I have learned that I have to make time for meditation, which has been my spiritual education for the past few weeks. I have a few goals this year but one big one is improving my relationship with God. This resolution means that I will be talking to him more often and reading more books on spirituality like The Pocket Guide to Meditation by Jon Kabat-Zinn .

Wow! It is unbelievable how much I committed to a spiritual path within the last year. I have done so many reading and meditation practices, as well as participated in self-study groups that helped me feel more connected to myself, my higher power and others around me. This was just part of my journey toward more self-awareness and growth. I plan on continuing to take this journey with open arms and explore new avenues of spirituality.
