l ori “L. J.” Alexander pursued a life of rewards by the standards of society—CPA, MBA, stock analyst, and entrepreneur. Leaving that world behind in 2004, Lori began her search into the elusive nature of true purpose. After many dead ends, the road led to own self-discovery of faith and consciousness.
I have been searching and asking since I was a child about the Words in the Bible and how they relate to my life, specifically, a connection to God. Seeking because of the many patterns of unhappiness and discontent I witnessed in everyday life. Perhaps, I knew or remembered there was so much more than dysfunctional lifestyles and these layers of pain people seem to inflict on each other and themselves.
As I grew older, the many paths and doors I opened labeled ‘performance’ and ‘success’ never seem to change my internal discontent. Even the pursuit through many church doors to God, none of those worked for me. It wasn’t the message; it was the approach.
The viewpoint I was living from was mind-centered not from my heart—my soul. Discover your true power! Life then is wonderous. Peace, purpose and prosperity emerge and you rise above all circumstances.
The only reason I have opened my life to others and exposed my self is because I was asked by Jeshuah and God to do so.
In a million years, I would not have thought this particular purpose was the path I had been questioning as a child. Yet, so many ‘normal doors’ were closed to me numerously, that a path to the light of Jeshuah was filled with heart ache self-created by my choices —the valley of the shadow .
some of my favorite passages
