Rev. Dr. Sahra Renata Rev. Dr. Sahra Renata spiritual alarm clock. soul purpose hunter. visionary.

Sahra Renata is a mystic, artist, writer and poet, with an M.A in spiritual Philosophy and a Ph.D in metaphysics. Sahra has taught advanced metaphysics and mastery of the healing arts throughout Europe, the U.S., Australia and Mexico. [www.bookofsahra.com]

On the road of life and death I have seen, studied, and understood the map of a divine living. Ten years ago I was given three months to live. I went into seclusion and had many close encounters with death. Jesus appeared to me frequently and in revelatory bursts of light, memory, and feeling. My passion is now awakening the Divine in others by bringing beauty and divine inspiration to uplift humanity as a reminder of their divine heritage and innate spiritual connection. To assist the planet to evolve into a vastly more tenable future by returning to sacred ways of living, relating, being, and doing and a remembering of who we are, who we have been, and all we can be.

What matters is real humanity in our spirituality. How we live life, holding, shining the light in the midst of great darkness. Whose life can you touch in a beautiful way? How can you make a positive difference? Beyond the greater meaning of life, the universe, and everything lies a soul that feels deeply, remembers wholly and holy, and cares passionately about something. That could be a belief or a mission, a human injustice, corporate greed, planetary issues, village drama or family imbalances. Wherever there is passionate feeling and strong opinion coupled with each individual’s unique gifts, soul purpose can be found. That is where heart and soul can fire the flame of the spirit into authentic action that will be supported and fuelled by universal energy and blessed with divine flow.

Higher than the Law of Attraction is the Law of Karma. Who you have been and how you have been is the unknown life force of who you are and how your life is now. Every day it is important to ask, Who am I? What am I here for? How can I best serve the divine? How can I make a difference? Show me the way.

Then breathe and feel. Breathe deeply into the heart, softening the walls of defense built from hurt and disappointment, frustration and despair. Taking action without asking these questions, waiting, feeling the answers, is like driving in the dark without headlights. The signs will come. Until they do, it is either not time to drive your vessel forward or you are not listening. Follow this light, and you are following the call of your soul and the call home.  Then you are close to the Divine within your own soul home.

– Rev. Dr. Sahra Renata
