Losing Faith

I have recently been in touch with many people who all report that they have been under tremendous challenge. I have to admit, the changes people are experiencing are pretty incredible. I have one client who in the course of six months has dealt with the exit of relationship, change of job, change of residence, child custody, mother with cancer, death of mother with cancer, new job, loss of job, and intensive training courses to begin work in other fields. Although, this particular client has never stated to me that a loss of faith had been felt, many people are reporting to me that they feel as if they are loosing faith.

One point I think is most important right now is the realization that the entire planet is going through a tremendous amount of change. It can be understandable with all that is going on how people can feel as if they are loosing their faith. I do find it quite interesting that this has followed a tremendous amount of interest in the abolition of fear, the power of manifestation, the law of attraction, the secret, etc... So many people have recently been introduced to these possibilities for the first time.

Consider this truth: With Spirit it is very important that all you keep your focus on is that which you desire to achieve. The HOW, WHEN, WHERE, WHY, are not the questions upon which one should be placing one's focus. In fact, dwelling on these questions can actually, if not careful, be an expression of doubt which has great affect on one's ability to manifest.

When one affirms with Creator and Spirit that one wishes to manifest something, one must affirm the desire into the ether's and simply leave that which has been affirmed in place. Faith is required. When we leave our manifestation before Spirit and Creator it is in the hands of the unlimited. As soon as we take our manifestation back into our own hands, we are limited to the creation that we are capable. Frankly, I'd prefer to receive from an unlimited source, as opposed to that which I am capable.

Asking How expresses concern or doubt in the possibility of the process and can slow, or stop the flow of our manifestation. HOW is a dangerous contemplation.
I am learning that things rarely are what they appear. Something that one may assume to be a failure, could actually be a victory. Failure to view it as such, could create failure if one is not closely aware. Failure is a rare occurence. It does not have to be a possibility.

Asking When expresses concern about the timing of an event. It expresses the fear that it will not happen in time with what we want. Time is exceptionally dangerous to ponder as its whole concept is illusion. Spirit does not operate on a system of time. In asking when, all spirit hears is an unclear doubt.

Asking Where expresses concern that there is or isn't room in the world for your desire. Am I asking too much? Am I asking too little? Is there really any purpose for my desire? This can even lead one to doubts of one's purpose and value. All these questions can come forward from entertaining questions of where.

Asking WHY expresses concern that one is worthy of or valued enough to receive.
The lack of belief in one's ability, value, or worth to receive is a sure troublespot.

If we are asking HOW, WHEN, WHERE, and WHY we entertain doubt, which is a direct derivative of the energy of fear. Fear feeds into doubt to make it seem more inflated and more powerful. If we are lead down these paths, it creates more and more of a questioning, which weakens our original affirmation little by little.

Another area of danger in our ability to manifest is in the use of the word hope.
Often times, I will reveal great and amazing possibilities awaiting a client. Often times, once these great and amazing possibilities are presented as a possibility the immediate response from the client is:

"I certainly hope so!"

Stating that I hope so, is really a statement that you are hoping your greatness will come. Does it really have a choice? Yes it does, and it comes back to us. If we are living in doubt and fear we can choose not to accept such greatness. The better response to such a revelation of greatness would be:

"I certainly am open to receive that!" or "I welcome that!"

Making statements like these are open and accepting of the more positive result, and place no expectation on time, space, location, or possibility. They simply state a basic truth that you would be open to receive. It is also more apt with these responses that the openness will be one of faith and less interference with the process of manifestation. The likelihood of achievement here is much greater.

One other danger word in the course of manifestation and flow of positive energy is the word BUT. If someone states,

"I would love to be abundant, but my credit card debt is so high."
"I'd love to be happy in my job, but I just don't know what I want to do."
"I'd love to be in a joyous, loving relationship, but ..."

I hope this pattern of speech is very clear to all of you. Reading the statements above, all of which I have heard in real life, and used myself, are statements that are defeated. When we say BUT we divert the energy back to that which has blocked us. It gets the power, it creates the result.

If we can turn this around to statements such as:

"I would love to be abundant, and I can see myself debt free."
"I'd love to be happy in my job, and I know there is a perfect fit for me."
"I'd love to be in a joyous, loving relationship, and I welcome the perfect person to enter my life. "

My belief is that with much more focus on the law of attraction, and manifestation, many people have gotten frustrated, and thrown into a state of doubt by being pitfalled by statements and thoughts such as, but not limited to those above. The more and more people who fall victim to these type of statements the more frustration there is to be felt, the more the statements are felt, the stronger the frustration is.

The system is not broke. It does work. We have to go back and look at our thinking. All those who feel they are or have lost their faith, or are loosing it, I urge you to look again at those things that could cause feelings of failure or loss. Look deeply into this circumstances and see what possibilities for greatness there COULD be.

We never know how spirit is going to work a circumstance for us. If failure is not what you desire, then, as the capsule of God essence that each of us are, failure is NOT and acceptable outcome. I urge everyone to keep the faith. Remember to clear, and to keep your energies high. Creator has not forsaken anyone, nor does spirit intend to neither. Where and how are you being too hard on yourself? Where and how are you limiting your ability to manifest greatness? Feel no shame for it, simply shift the process... Share with friends and loved ones, and ask them to help you bring your language and thought patterns into a position of creation not destruction. Be open to making the shifts necessary. Find people to help support you, and for you to support. There is always safety in numbers. Let me know if there is any way I can help.

You are loved!

Card of the Day - Wednesday, October 3, 2007

Today's card of the day is the Knight of Swords. What a powerful messenger we have today. The Knight of Swords, is the bringer forth of swift and strong changes. His energies are direct, precise, and deliberate. Although, many may see this particular knight as a threatening omen, in truth he really is not. His meaning in today's message is this: I come to clear away all debris and obstacles that lay in front of you on your path. It is imperative that you see clearly in order to move forward. I simply come to make this possible. What is difficult about my process is that I come to clear one from all that is hidden. My result is that of clarity of vision, and ease of passage. I come to clear away all misconception, desired or undesired. I come to remove illusion from one's life. I come to make the way easy. Difficulty could occur in a process in which one is clinging to one's illusions. This can be easy to do, as one becomes attached to their energy. Illusion is stationary, however, and leads one a drift without control, or vision, or destination. It is important for one to take an inventory and to accept that which could be illusion. Simply choose to allow Creator and Spirit to take the helm and lead in the direction necessary. Again, it is faith that is called upon. Swift and powerful change is on the horizon. Getting there does not have to hurt, the hurt comes from the expression of one's resistance, and unwillingness to be moved forward on plan. Keep breathing. Keep trusting. This is just the process of cleaning the house before guests arrive.

Card of the Day - Tuesday, October 2, 2007

Today, we have the blessing of the Page of Rods as the card of the day. The Page of Rods is a very special card to follow the Eight of Cups, which fell in yesterday's reading. The Page of Rods, in succession of the Eight of Pentacles, gives us a sense of the directions that energies are flowing. With this Page chiming in, it tells us that energies are opening to newness of vision, and special opportunities that await. The suit of Rods, normally would represent something to do with one's every day life, for example: job opportunities, newness of direction, changes for the positive, communication, education, and clarity of vision. This is just the tip of the iceberg, however, and one should not be fooled by the power of this young Page. He is packed with powerful potential for change. He comes to represent to us that a difference is in the process of being made. His message today, is to inhale the energies of the new, and strongly exhale the energies of the old. Push yourself to see the change in your endeavors as what they are, changes. What may be appearing to you as a failure, or loss, could actually just be a part of the process of creating your life the way you want it to be. What is needed today is TRUST in the process that Creator, and Spirit are working with you in tandem holding you ever close, and protected from anything that could ever harm you.

Card of the Day - Monday, October 1, 2007

Today's card of the day is the Eight of Cups. This is a symbol that change for the better is at hand. The Eight of Cups represents the aspect that the end of cycle of difficulty is now approaching. In this cycle of transition, it is most important to understand the probability that there are some things you may need to allow in the course of the actual period of change. Ironically, it is of great importance to consider wisely that which may be required of you. Are you here called to involve yourself in the patterns of change, or would spirit find you more perfectly placed in a position of complete release, where you are willing to let everything go? Creator's energy is such that great works of change can be achieve from either the action of involvement or the action of release.

That which is being traversed at this time is a space of limitation in fulfillment. Approach this with great joy and happiness. The result of this action is guaranteed to be wonderfully good. Once an arrival is made at the next point of destination, the sense of life appears to be much more light and free. This is most likely a strong contrast to what you may have been feeling recently. Today's card is a strong aide in the process of movement within the universal vibration of conclusion in which we currently find ourselves. Good things are definetly ahead.

It is important to determine which is your course of action. If you feel yourself called to action, then by all means, make a plan. Take the first step! A call to action comes, only in a time when we are in a position to act, and most positively shift our lives. If you feel yourself called to release, the by all means, start with that which has so strongly plagued your thoughts and caused you to feel held down. For those who may not be sure which call to action is necessary, I urge you to try both. Make a plan and take one, two, or at most three small steps on your plan. Silmutaneously, release that which has plagued your thoughts, and caused your recent sense of stagnation

This is a powerful card proposing promising change!!!

Namaste!
