Most of us have long forgotten who we really are and why we are here. Whipped by the winds of change and uncertainty, consumed by fear, we are locked in a selfimposed prison of the human state of consciousness.
Instead of seeking light, we quake from shadows cast by the flickering flame of illusion. The negative power has baited the mind, and lacking spiritual awareness, many have unknowingly eaten their fill of its poison. Never cause in our own lives, we tread on a wheel as an effect, lost in a perpetual, dizzying, reactive state of want and confusion. Why do so many find comfort under a cloak of dark thoughts and worn limiting habits, when we could choose limitless freedom, unbridled joy, and lightness of heart? It is always from fear.
When viewed through the mind, objectively it appears as though the universe has suffered a fatal flaw in the grand plan causing the world to spin off into chaos. But know that there are never mistakes, and life, at its core is always exactly as it should be. Until such time as we surrender all of our worries and insecurities and place absolute trust in Spirit, we will continue to remain blind, struggling in a sea of doubt and spiritual poverty. There are only so many days in a life, so many heartbeats, so many steps. Choose not to waste another precious moment existing in fear. Choose to trust and thrive in Spirit. Now matter what we have to go through, know that it always seems darkest before the sun begins to rise, but it will rise, and so will we!
After a tiny seed germinates, is it not still surrounded by darkness? Does it cower in its husk, afraid of what lies above it, or how much ground it has to push through to reach the sky? Its trust unconditional, always accepting what life offers, the young sprout continues to develop at its own natural pace. It is connected to the source and has nothing to prove. It is never in a rush, for it knows that it has already touched the sky, since the moment it hatched from its seed. It should be the same for us. In stillness, take a deep relaxing breath focusing on just one single blessing we are grateful for. Surrender and cast our worries into the great flowing river of the Creator. Feel time slow and the oppressive yoke of life’s burdens slip from our shoulders. With tears of joy in our eyes, feel the heart center open to receive the hot golden rays of divine love. Even in darkness, there is light and love to be had, in each moment a choice. Choose to trust!
