A warm hello from Oribel

Hello Friends,

Thank you for visiting my blog. If you are looking for inspiration and empowerment you’ve come to the right place.

Apart from articles I've written based on my own personal experiences I have included suggested affirmations, intentions, prayers, visualizations, meditations, ideologies and a whole lot more. I have personally benefited from them - I gained more self-confidence, learned about self-love, self-acceptance and self-respect, overcoming fears created by years of conditionings, tackled self-doubt, self-worth and self-esteem issues. And I’m learning to trust myself more and more each day.

I invite you to open heart and empty your mind and pick any subject that you are drawn to. Take only the information that resonates with you and leave the rest behind as they are here for others. You see, each of us have different lessons to learn in this life. Much of which is to overcome different types of fears - fear of being lonely, fear of rejection, fear of failure, well you're getting the picture. And, hence, we need different tools in our lives as we seek to discover ourselves and to turn our challenges into life lessons. With self-knowledge comes true power.

And always know that you have much to give the world by just being you....the authentic you that is. And also remember that when you reach a higher truth be prepared to let go of older ones that no longer serve you. That's how we evolve and expand.

Happy journeys,
Oribel

Prayer for Love



Prayer for Love

Today, Lord, help me to accept myself the way I am, without judgement. Help me to accept my mind the way that it is, with all my emotions, my hopes and dreams, and my unique pesonality. Help me to accept my body the way that it is, with all it's beauty and perfection.

Today, Lord, clean my mind of emotional poison and self-judgement, so that I can live in peace and love. Let the love for myself be so strong that I never reject myself or sabotage my happiness and personal freedom. Let me love and accept myself without judgement, because when I judge myself, I find myself guilty, and then need to punish myself.

With the power of self-love, let all my relationships be based on love and respect. Help me to let go of the need to tell others how to think or how to be. Let me accept the people I love just the way they are, without judgement, because when I judge them and blame them, I find them guilty, and want to punish them. Help me Lord, to love everything you create with no conditions, because when I reject your creation, I reject you.

Today Lord, help me to start my life over with the power of self-love. Help me to explore life, to take risks, and to love myself unconditionally. Let me open my heart to the love that is my birthright so that I can share my love wherever I go.

Amen.

Prayer for Awareness

This is a very beautiful prayer from an audiobook from Don Miguel Ruiz.
As you listen to it, you'll understand what I mean.

Know that you are very much loved. Blessed be.



Words to Prayer for Awareness by Don Miguel Ruize

Today, Creator of the Universe, we ask that you open our
heart and open our eyes so we can enjoy all of your
creations and live in eternal love with you. Help us to
see you in everything we perceive with our eyes, with our
ears, with our heart, with all our senses.

Let us perceive with eyes of love so that we find you
wherever we go and see you in everything you create.
Let us see you in every cell of our body, in every emotion
of our mind, in every dream, in every flower, in every
person we meet. You cannot hide from us because you
are everywhere, and we are one with you. Let us be
aware of this truth.

Let us be aware of our power to create a dream of heaven
where everything is possible. Help us to use our
imagination to guide the dream of our life, the magic
of our creation, so we can live without fear, without
anger, without jealousy, without envy. Give us a
light to follow, and let today be the day that our
search for love and happiness is over.
Today let something extraordinary happen that will
change our life forever: Let everything we do and
say be an expression of the beauty in our heart,
always based on love.

Help us to be the way you are, to love the way you love,
to share the way you share, to create a masterpiece of
beauty and love, the same way that all of your
creations are masterpieces of beauty and love. Beginning
today and gradually over time, help us to increase the
power of our love so that we may create a masterpiece
of art - our own life. Today, Creator, we give you all
of our gratitude and love because you have given us Life.

Amen.

The Warrior's Prayer - Making of the Video

This Youtube video is a collaboration between two people who became friends on the WWW. Maya is very talented and she makes awesome videos that carry inspirational messages of peace, hope, love and freedom. We both decided that she creates a video using one my of favourite prayers by Stuart Wilde and my very first and currently only water colour painting. And this magnificent music was chosen by my Angels as I was divinely guided to the CD.

I dedicate this video to YOU. Enjoy the video and take in the energy that emanates from it.



I hope you enjoyed the video.

Maya is just one of many Youtubers who, in service, give of what they have become. These men and women who created these videos in YT (Youtube) are passionate and dedicated about their creation. And they excel in their craft. Take for instance this particular video. It was less than 3 days ago that I received Maya's email when she suggested creating a video of the Warrior's Prayer I sent her the day before. Within the same day we decided on the music and the images to be used. I was still abit skeptical about using my pegasus painting for this video and I told her so. But Maya was convinced that it was more perfect than I think.

And both of us were so excited as she had described to me what she had in mind. She worked flat out and didn't finish until 2.00am when she was finally satisfied with the end-result. And the very next day she loaded the video on to YT.

Maya I feel is a great example of someone who in having faith in the beauty within her, she develop trust. I so admire the talent, the passion and the dedication that's behind every video creation that's put out there. And so I encourage you to do what you love, and love what you do. And you'll be amaze with the results that you get and what others get out of them too.

Please refer to an earlier article I posted on this prayer. There you will find the complete text for this prayer and my thoughts about it.

Love watching yourself create. :D

The Silent Prayer

This is a very beautiful and empowering prayer. It's been given by Tobias, as channeled by Geoffrey Hoppe of the Crimson Circle: www.crimsoncircle.com.

My friend Maya whom I met in YouTube has put together a most wonderful video which is her interpretation of this empowering prayer. She too was inspired by it. Watch it as I am most certain it will speak to your heart as it did mine.

PS/ it is sure to tingle your senses. You will also find the words to the prayer right below the video. I now say this prayer every morning upon waking up.



The Silent Prayer by Tobias

In my heart, I accept my perfect Being.
I accept that the joy that I have intended
is already in my life.
I accept that the love I have prayed for
is already within me.
I accept that the peace I have asked for
is already my reality.
I accept that the abundance I have sought
already fills my life.

In my truth, I accept my perfect Being.
I take responsibility for my own creations
And all things that are within my life.
I acknowledge the power of Spirit that is within me,
And know that all things are as they should be.

In my wisdom, I accept my perfect Being.
My lessons have been carefully chosen by my Self,
And now I walk through them in full experience.
My path takes me on a sacred journey with divine purpose.
My experiences become part of All That Is.

In my knowingness, I accept my perfect Being.
In this moment, I sit in my golden chair
And know that I Am an angel of light.
I look upon the golden tray - the gift of Spirit -
And know that all of my desires already have been fulfilled.

In love for my Self, I accept my perfect Being.
I cast no judgment or burdens upon my Self.
I accept that everything in my past was given in love.
I accept that everything in this moment comes from love.
I accept that everything in my future will result in greater love.

In my Being, I accept my perfection.
And so it is.

The Warrior's Prayer

The Warrior’s Prayer by Stuart Wilde

I am what I am.
In having faith in the beauty within me, I develop trust.
In softness I have strength.
In silence I walk with the gods.
In peace I understand myself and the world.
In conflict I walk away.
In detachment I am free.
In respecting all living things, I respect myself.
In dedication I honour the courage within me.
In eternity I have compassion for the nature of all things.
In love I unconditionally accept the evolution of others.
In freedom I have power.
In my individuality, I express the God-Force within me.
In service I give of what I have become.
I am what I am:
Eternal, immortal, universal, and infinite.
And so be it.


This powerful prayer is taken from Stuart Wilde’s book entitled Affirmations: How to expand your personal power and take back control of your life.

I have used many prayers from renown spiritual teachers and self-help gurus from the Western world. And this one absolutely resonates with me. The reason I say it’s powerful is because the prayer is actually an affirmation to one’s self. You see we are a piece of God and we have the POWER within us. So God is not out there, in the sky or in Heaven. God is within each of us. We are made in the image of God. So when we pray, we are actually praying to our expanded selves, our Spirit/Higher Self who hold all the answers to our every need. And prayers should always be said from a point of power and not weakness or lack. There is no ‘poor me’ statements in this prayer. It’s a prayer that’s full of reminders of who we truly are. And knowing who we truly are, we proclaim to the Universe this is who we are and we seek to become more conscious of it.

And what I like about this prayer is it covers every aspect of our life. It reminds me of our Oneness with all creations on Earth. Remember that we all come from the same Source. Yes, even the dirt, the grass, the trees, the animals, the insects and all other life forms – ALL come from the same Source.

And so I share with you this most powerful prayer. I say this prayer every morning when I get out of bed and every night before I sleep. And I said it with feeling and from my heart. May you come to realise the spiritual be-ing that you are.

Prayer to Four Archangels

For a period of time, right after I left my corporate job, I often felt anxious and I worried about my future. And this was creating sleepless nights for myself. At that time, I was already communicating with my angels and felt very close to them. I wanted to ask for their assistance to help me with my sleeping problems.

I know that I needed to give my worries and concerns to my angels and that I wanted some nurturing, guidance and solace whilst I slumber. And in a book of prayers I found this wonderful bedtime prayer and it was absolutely perfect for what I needed at that time. It is called the Bedtime Prayer to the Four Archangels:

May Gabriel be at my right side, to guide my hand and my words.

May Raphael be at my left side, to heal me and help me bring healing to others.

May Auriel be behind me, so that I may rest in her soft and tender care.

May Michael be in front of me, as a shield for my heart and to lead me forward.

And above my head may the Shekinah, the Divine Presence, bring me close to Heaven as I sleep.

I said this prayer every night after I give my worries and concerns to God and my angels. And without fail I sleep better. And as the days rolled by, I became more and more confident as I create my reality and my future.

You see, Angels and Archangels are just waiting eagerly for you to ask them for help and they love helping humanity. Because we are given free will, the angels and archangels can only begin assisting us upon our request.
