In our last article about being Spiritual, we talked about How to become a Spiritual Person – 5 P Method. Here are some more tips on becoming more Spiritual.
Past. Let go of the past. Forgive those that haunt you from your past. Holding a grudge against someone gives them power over you and your life. To quote something I saw in a meme, “Holding a grudge is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.”
Positive. Being positive raises your vibration. When you raise your vibration, you are closer to the things of the spirit world. Here are some ways to raise your vibration in Galatians 5:22-23 (NIV)
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. - Galatians 5:22-23 (NIV)
If you go on to read Galatians 5 it will tell you some things that are not of the Spirit. Those things are not positive, so I won’t include them here. You can be positive in your daily life, “It’s a beautiful day. Yesterday was a beautiful day. And, Tomorrow will be a beautiful day. Everyday is a beautiful day.” On rainy days, it revitalizes the plants, it refills our reservoirs, lakes, rivers, and streams. Even rain is a beautiful thing as it’s one of God’s processes.

Praise. I find that listening and signing along to our local “Positive and Encouraging” radio station helps to raise my vibration and bring me closer to God. Take some time each day to see the beauty of God’s Creation all around you. Feel God in the wind or the sun and sing his praises along with the radio or on twitter. Thank the Holy Spirit or God when you have something good happen in your life. See and feel the Holy Spirit in others for we are all connected through the Holy Spirit. There are passages in the Bible about the stars and moon praising God. Can you find them and post them in the comments?
Practice. Become a Spiritual Person can happen pretty fast and it only gets better with time. The more you work on all the P’s mentions in this series, the more you will raise your vibration and the more Spirit will be involved in your life.
