Today's reflection is on...

Zeal

Today is Thursday the 14th day of Lent.
This is entry number 16 in this series.

Today we look at the spiritual power of Zeal - Enthusiasm

The Metaphysical meaning of zeal from The Revealing Word by Charles Fillmore:

Zeal = Intensity, ardor, enthusiasm; the inward fire of the soul that urges man onward, regardless of the intellectual mind of caution and conservatism.

Zeal is the mighty force that incites the winds, the tides, the storms; it urges the planet on its course, and spurs the ant to greater exertion. It is the urge behind all things. Zeal is the affirmative impulse of existence, its command is "Go forward!" When zeal and judgment work together great things can be accomplished. Take time to be holy. Turn a portion of your zeal to do God's will; to the establishing of His kingdom within you

Get excited and walk hand in hand with enthusiasm today. Make it a habit to approach everything with enthusiasm!

One way is to walk your walk being mindful that everything around you is the Divine expressing in infinite ways. Move in the awareness that you are an expression too of Divine Good. Tell yourself throughout your day, 'I got this, I got God, I got Good, I Am that I Am.' Then rise higher as you live from this consciousness of your own divinity. - Stephen J. Kosmyna

I affirm: "My zeal is tempered with wisdom, and I maintain a perfect balance within and without." - Charles Fillmore

The Scripture reading that Charles Fillmore suggests for today can be found right here: Luke 10:30-42; 11:1-4

In his classic work Keep a True Lent, Charles Fillmore offers daily words of inspiration to reflect on as we move ourselves towards our own resurrection day and the glorious celebration of Easter Sunday and all the newness of Life that it holds for all of us.
