Spiritual Hygiene: A Practical Path for Clean Living, Inner Authority, and Divine Freedom
1-time BLK Bestseller, Adult Nonfiction (Hardcover)
Excerpt
Beloved Presence of All That Is,
Anchor me now in Your peace and perfect wisdom.
Today, I call forth the sacred flame of courage.
Not the absence of fear, but the holy willingness to move forward anyway.
Let courage rise in me like the morning sun, warming every place within me that feels uncertain or afraid.
Divine Light of truth, I ask that you clear my mind. Wash away the fog of confusion, the heaviness of doubt, and the noise of every voice that does not belong to me.
Make my thoughts clear, focused, and honorable. Help me to see with spiritual eyes, so that I will choose with sacred discernment. Guide me to speak only what is rooted in integrity and love.
I open my hands and my heart now, ready to receive Divine instruction so that I will walk in alignment toward my greater good.
Guide me. Strengthen me. Clarify everything I hold in my mind. May every step I take today be a step toward truth and peace and my own divinity.
I Ask. I Allow. I Accept.
Amen. Ashe. Aho.
And so, it is.
