Daily Inspiration: December 29, 2021

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration

The focus for today is: I stop, look, and listen for guidance and assistance.

At times, we may feel overwhelmed "by it all". However, we must remember that we always have help available, on many levels. We must not be like the drowning man who refuses help from others because he is waiting for God to come and save him. Our task is to learn to recognize who, and what, is there to assist us.

Help is everywhere, in many forms -- and it may not always look like we expect it to look. Help can come from another person, or from a "coincidence", or from our dreams and inner guidance. When we pay attention to our dreams and to all "signs" and synchronicities in our life, we discover the help that is always present - sometimes in a soft whisper, and at other times like a 2x4 hitting us over the head.

The more we can pick up on the quiet messages, the less we need the "hard knocks" of life to redirect our path. Dreams can often bring guidance, yet at other times they simply may be a restatement of things going on in our lives -- which in itself can be a form of help as well. Stop, look, and listen for the guidance and assistance that is always available. 

Today's Daily Inspiration was excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article:

Today's Daily Inspiration was inspired by the "Old Woman Sorceress" card from:

The Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards

The Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards: Spiritual Teachings of the Sioux
by Chief Archie Fire Lame Deer and Helene Sarkis.

cover art of The Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards: Spiritual Teachings of the Sioux by Chief Archie Fire Lame Deer and Helene Sarkis.This book and beautifully illustrated deck draw on the ancient Lakota ritual of healing and purification known as the sacred Inipi, or sweat lodge ceremony, which has existed in the Lakota culture for thousands of years.

The cards and accompanying book comprise a self-contained and highly original system that will help you harness creative energies to deal with issues that are of concern in your life. Used for self-discovery rather than divination, the cards gently guide you toward inner growth and self-knowledge in the time-honored tradition of the Lakota people.
