If I asked you what your greatest gift is, some of you would answer very quickly: your spouse, your children, your successful career, winning a gold medal, or maybe when you won the lottery. Others of you might take a moment to decide which gift is the greatest. While you might agree with one of the above gifts, you could mention a situation in which you saved another's life, the experience of overcoming an illness, escaping from near fatal harm and so on. Every one of these are fabulous gifts, a gift that can keep on giving for a lifetime. In fact, if you became introspective a moment or two, you'll probably think of another, then another, and yet another gift, for every life is truly blessed with a continual parade of gifts. No matter what you believe is your greatest gift, I am asking you to put it aside to make room for the most important, most spectacular, most unique, most magnificent, most beautiful gift you'll ever have -YOU! That's right, you are your greatest gift. Without you there could be no spouse, no children, no career, no medal, no escape from harm. You see, you are the center of your universe just as each of us are. Because of you there can be a knowing of the gifts; it happens within you. So let's talk about you, the Gift. You are created by the Creator of the universe and are part of your Creator as is every other created being. You are unique, a one-of-a-kind design. You are blessed with many abilities and an inner beauty that wants to be revealed. You are made from the energy of love so that you can spread love. You have natural intuition and a divine connection. You are part of the abundant universe and have unlimited power available to you simply by aligning with your Creator. As the sky is endless, so are your possibilities. You came to live in this life experience so you can expand into higher awareness and learn much. You are so special because you have something special within you to share with the world. So is there a gift greater than this? It is time for you to acknowledge your worth, to know your value and recognize your greatness. So often an individual has been conditioned to believe their value is governed by their production level and whether or not they measure up. As a human being it is easy to "fall short of the mark," and a chain reaction comes into play that says not good enough, failed, messed up, has limits. Through divine awareness my belief says I'm of worth by just being me and is not measured by anything I do. My understanding says that my Creator (God) is perfect and only creates perfect designs, all from love. As part of my Creator and a perfect design, I can be only of great worth. It has nothing to do with my productivity: I am simply me, God's perfect love. You too are a perfect design of God. Do you think God messes up? The very fact that you are breathing the breath of life at this very moment is a gift. The reality that your birthright is the essence of pure love with unlimited power is a marvelous gift. Knowing this reality of your birthright expresses the mindfulness of your absolute value. As you shift to the realization of your origin from perfect love and accept the birthright of greatness, you can then understand how you are your greatest gift. From this greatness you came into this life experience with your gift within you; it is your responsibility to share it with the world. This gift is yours and yours alone, like no one else's, not a duplicate anywhere. Now that's pretty special if you ask me. And to think we each have one (or more) of these special gifts within us. Have you remembered that special gift of yours? So often it remains hidden from the view of the world and perhaps even from you. But once you uncover this precious gift your entire life will change, and as you share it with others their lives will change. The gift within you becomes you. But because individuals doubt the endless supply of possibilities as well as their own power, they don't believe in their true value. Instead, they believe they must earn their worthiness through what they achieve, acquire or do rather than who they are. You were created from love and are love, and this love is who you are - a great gift to this world. Unwrap the package of you and step into the light so you can shine brilliantly. It's not what you give nor what you receive, but who you are that is your greatest gift! Thank God every single day for You! Carolyn Porter, D. Div.
