Enlightened Path Outreach Mission Statement
There are many names for the higher power I refer to the creator as God because it was the name I feared most. I also say he, but there is no real he or she to this, God or Goddess, Universe, Spirit, Allah or a host of many other names they are all one.
A spiritual revolution has been gaining more momentum than it has in years. As the thinking people become more and more disenchanted with the politics of religion and the fear factors used to insult our intelligence on a daily basis, the greater the tide is beginning to change. I bought into these very teachings for most of my life and wasn't free from the burden until I found the courage to discover the true teachings of God.
Years of fear had taken its toll on my well being. I hid in the darkness at that time in my life , thinking that it was safer than searching for the truth. In other words, I was one of God's slow learners. It took many lessons and just as many losses for me to have no where else to go. There was only one place left for me to turn and that was to God.
God sent a messenger to tell me of the unconditional love offered. At first I was in total disbelief after years of being convinced I was a living breathing sin. This was hard for me to fathom that she could be speaking of the same God I was raised with. This intelligent woman spoke of forgiveness and love. I only knew of God that was punishing and vengeful. She seemed so sure, that not only did God smile upon her soul, he also smiled upon mine. A few weeks after this conversation I sat in my car, feeling the weight of burden cover me so heavily. I prayed with conviction, I prayed with desperation for answers from a God who I feared so long. The answers came so quickly that I knew in my heart, that this was a prayer that God had been waiting for. To release his child from the chains and the guilt that I had grown used to carry.
Daily prayers became a part of my life. Dreams and visions showed me that the Lord wanted my life journey to be known to help his other children. The fact that I could be so lost and wounded as I stumbled aimlessly in the dark, even with my pleas of desperation, a miracle occurred. I not only found the light I began to radiate it. In a talk with God I offered my services to be a servant. God took this offer very seriously and life has changed from that moment on. In some ways it has been a gradual journey, but as far as my Spirituality has grown with leaps bounds. God has taken those empty spaces in my soul and filled them with the light of his love. In my awareness it has allowed me to understand the high number of souls that are as consumed in pain as I was.
My Ministry is just beginning: it's not the number of people that have come into my life that has mattered. It's been the type of people God has sent in to my life that is making the Ministry a reality. People arrive in many different ways, but all are supportive and feel the message is important.
I understand the scrutiny behind the words I have a message from God, but I can no longer be concerned with that scrutiny. I won't wilt under the pressure of others. I can no longer be influenced by the fear I have carried in the past. It didn't serve for the better good, didn't serve me, and it no longer (nor has it ever) served God. I know what my job consists of. If I am believed that I have been given this gift, it really doesn't matter where it came from. The important part of my task is to get people to do their own digging into the truth and to talk to God, to pray, to reach out so God can touch your lives too.
I have been on a spiritual journey that took 46 years of hardship, shame and fear to instill empathy to help others find this true message of a loving and forgiving God, One that has spoken to me through words and I have given thanks through actions.
The feeling of a darkened soul can touch every economical status, color, sex and orientation, because all are in need of healing from years of organizations that have used God like a pit bull, viciously pointing their fingers to so called sinners. When in reality, these people that they condemn are of the same Father, the same Creator the same Universe. These very people are all brothers and sisters. God will take care of his own judgments. This isn't a job that was to be left in the hands of those that seek power or control.
We have been created in God's image: the reflection of this image comes in the form of spirit and the form of soul. These forms radiate the same light and goodness God has within His spirit. Though no light shines brighter than the creators, each of us have that same ability to shine. When we find the path to that light and we demonstrate the same for others as God does for us. God wants this of all his children, no matter the name you identify with for your Spiritual growth. That identity allows us to see with clarity that all roads lead to one Higher Creation. Many fear the idea or concept, but the fact remains to be, we are all bothers and sisters. If you were to acknowledge this as a fact, maybe change could happen sooner instead of fighting what is so obvious. God didn't create us all with the high intelligence of a rocket scientist, because God knew this wasn't necessary for us to learn what is so evident: we must learn to live in harmony, to respect the differences of our brothers and sisters. It's all God's grand plan. We are prefect is his eyes, if we fail to see this in each other. We fail our true purpose as children of God, when we fail to recognize and respect God's other children. We insult the Creator, if we treat his other creations with harsh judgments when they don't fit to what we believe the norm should be. I am amazed at those who say they are doing God's work with one breath and spread miss information and discontent before they even exhale. God loves his miss guided children too and hopes that they can release themselves from their burdens of their own egos. I have fought confusion in trying to separate what is judgment or what is opinion. After much soul searching and prayers, the anger I used to have for them and their hateful message has changed and I too have found a way to love them. The very men that helped bring me to this path are the ones I pray for, I know in their hearts that their convictions are just as real and deep as mine. Who am I to say how far they have walked or how wide their path is? I have many differences from these Ministries, I share all the reasons you will enter the gates of the kingdom, they provide us with all the reasons that we won't.
