Wherever we are in our life right now is conducive to our spiritual growth. We have to have the correct orientation to recognize that every moment is an opportunity to grow deeper in our spirituality and who we are. Wherever you are right now is where you need to be to grow and to take your next step. This is your point of power. - Aubert Bastiat

Power Quotes From The Show

Born Of Love

"We're born of infinity, eternity, and love. Look at the state of the world today. We're not living God's vision for this Earth. We're blessed with free will so we can grow from separation to union." - Aubert Bastiat

Hitting Rock Bottom

"We need to let it all go and fall apart before it can come together. We need to come to a rock bottom that can serve the foundation of who we are in an authentic way. That's why we have experiences where we're on our knees praying. When we come to that place, our heart opens because we're humble." - Aubert Bastiat

The Best Life Is Right Now

"God wants to see what we can do with this moment and what we have right here right now. Not tomorrow, not when we have the nice house or the perfect life but right now. Wherever we are right now in life. That's our responsibility to make the best life ever right now." - Aubert Bastiat
