Was there a time recently when you had to make a difficult decision? Did you make the decision and then suddenly change your mind because it just didn't feel right in your gut? If so, you quickened your Power of Wisdom, also called judgment, discernment or intuition. Unity is focusing on the Power of Wisdom in March.

Most decisions are made easily and with an inner confidence when I use the Twelve Powers as my guide. When I unconsciously use only my intellectual wisdom (instead of spiritual wisdom), I can get into trouble quickly.

For this reason, even when I make seemingly small decisions, I go within to “check in”. I stop for a moment, breathe and ask what is mine to do, to have or to be in any given situation. This pause gives me confidence and peace to move forward.

Life is a physical journey, but navigating it inwardly with spiritual reflection can create great peace. As we discover and use spiritual principles such as the Twelve Powers, our focus moves from the inside out. We are then able to see situations in life clearly and move in the direction of our highest good.

As you learn about each Power throughout this year, begin to notice how the Powers relate and work together to create harmony in your life. Without Faith, one cannot fully embrace Love. Without Love, one does not have the Strength to exercise Wisdom or good judgment. The Twelve Powers are strong spiritual tools that can be integrated into your daily spiritual practice.

I invite you to “check within” as you make decisions this month. Practice, experiment and begin to feel the difference as you consciously make decisions that combine your intellectual understanding with your spiritual discernment. Enjoy your inward journey as you discover and use the Power of Wisdom.
