God Doesn’t Work by Zip Code

When people ask how I work as an intuitive mentor, I say, “I bring souls to their Aha Moment.” 

I hadn’t shared that with Lidia, my recent client from Westchester, New York, so I was particularly delighted when I said something in the middle of our session and she waved her hands and said, “I just had an Aha Moment.”

Lidia had told me she spent her mornings working with autistic children in the roughest part of town. In doing so, she’d had profound spiritual experiences. In the afternoons, she did traditional adult social work. In the evenings, she offered energy work and mindfulness counseling. She’d recently felt inclined to release the morning and afternoon work to focus on what she did in the evenings—what she felt most passionate about—but she was still uncertain.

We talked about where she served, why she served and how she felt when she did it. I mentioned Mother Teresa, working in the slums of Calcutta, and I asked Lidia what brought her the most joy and fulfillment. That’s when she waved her arms and stopped me. She shared her aha moment..

“It doesn’t matter where I serve,” she said with a broadening smile. “God doesn’t work by zip code.”

As Mother Teresa said, “Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.”
