Neale Donald Walsch very generously shares a daily spiritual lesson today@nealedonaldwalsch.com with his mailing list. And this particular message truly struck a chord within me. Being the Better & Better woman, I encourage all, when in the throes of crisis, particularly physical dis-ease, to know that, as arduous as this may be, it is an opportunity. It is purposeful and meaningful. It is a "rite of passage" that when held in that perspective, can deliver blessings beyond our wildest dreams. Most of us have forgotten that we’re much more than these physical bodies. We are Spirit beings on our Soul’s journey and the Universe occasionally has to give us a jolt - some would call it a wake-up call.

On this day of your life, Dear Friend, I believe God wants you to know...
...that illness is not a sign of spiritual weakness,
but of spiritual strength.
but of spiritual strength.
When we fall ill there are some who will say, "Why
did you create that for yourself?" They might convince
you to see it as a sign of spiritual weakness or failure.
It is not. It is a sign of spiritual strength.
All challenges are a sign of spiritual strength, and of
the readiness of the Soul to move on;
to evolve even further.
