Some of us pray demands. Some of us pray complaints. Some of us pray knowing, and some of us pray not knowing. But prayer is the attitude that you hold in your heart.

Sometimes we pray in our heads and we never get a real opportunity to solidify what it is that we’re praying for or what we’re praying about. So once you write it down, it’s like a flow. It comes out and you solidify the thought or the idea or the request.

Spirit has the power to bring peace, harmony, and balance into any situation.

Spirit is the key to everything we desire. It is our weather-proofing, our Teflon, our line of credit that assures if we just keep putting one foot in front of the other, one day; there will be a miraculous payoff.

Spiritual consciousness does not make your problems go away; it does, however, help you view them from a different vantage point.

Spirituality is a journey inward that connects the Self to yourself. When you know who you are from the inside out, when you do what you sense is right for you, when your thoughts lead you to actions that serve others as well as make you feel good, then you have encountered spirituality.

Iyanla Vanzant

Spirituality is not about what you know. It is about growing, deepening, evolving, and becoming a living reflection of your spiritual identity.

Iyanla Vanzant

Stop chasing things that are beneath the truth of who you are. Stop holding on to things and people that weigh you down. Stop behaving in ways that don’t honor the divinity and nobility within you.

Iyanla Vanzant

Stuff your feelings because feelings buried alive don’t die. And that fear or that upset or that anger or that whatever it is, it’ll turn into something inside of you. So you want to get it out.

Iyanla Vanzant

Surrender your thoughts, your anger, your fear. Simply surrender it to your God.
