Nature pours forth her abundance and grace constantly.
Have you ever noticed?
Did you know that without Nature no life would exist on our planet?
We will explore Abundance and all of its aspects. The way to Abundance is first recognizing that You are divine and that all You see is. Every person, place or thing in your life is divine. Divinity is everywhere, including within you, Always and Forever. You are divine in every aspect of your life.
In our present physical existence (that we have willed for the purpose of our own Evolution), we have attracted every event, every person, all ‘good and bad’ that ever happened to Us. The reason that we collectively do this is to find what is Real. I put ‘good and bad’ into quotes, because from the highest view everything just Is.
In looking to Nature, we can begin to see a tiny portion of our own Abundance. Think of an apple tree for a moment, it started from a single seed, just as you did. Each harvest seasons an Abundance of fruit and seed are replenished. In Nature, from a single seed comes the potential every year for hundreds and hundreds of apples and seeds. Now an apple seed can only grow into another apple tree, naturally.
Looking at your thoughts for a moment as seeds (and they are) what kind of thoughts occupy your day and night? Do your thoughts focus on lack, pain, suffering and want? The universal energy that surrounds us all is object oriented, It doesn’t know that by you thinking a certain way you don’t want more of this or that.
In order to start changing the circumstances that we find ourselves in we Must first change our thoughts. How we think of thoughts probably needs to change as well. The outer conditions of life reflect a polished mirror of our inner condition and thinking. Not to say that if someone is ‘well off’ that they are in harmony within, there are many examples that show quite the contrary. We will leave this subject for another newsletter.
The clearest picture of this physical universe that I have becomes clearer through this analogy: ‘Our thoughts are energy, that energy bounces of a giant mirror (the Universe) and is re-played back to us in living color, our life. After which we say, 'how did that happen?, sometimes. The power to change everything in our life lives within each of us. Everything emanates from us. We can and will change, but it takes some time to change.
Cause and Effect are not instantaneous. If we think of a juicy Golden Delicious apple, it doesn’t appear in our hand, yet. There is a time delay in our thoughts and the results. As we purify and focus thoughts, the time until manifestation becomes shorter and shorter.
The vibrations of our thoughts take time to unfold in the material universe.
In addition, the prior thoughts and of course our circumstances don’t evaporate the instance we shift our thoughts to a more positive nature. However, what does happen is we feel better, better about our life and ourselves. Just like a brick building doesn’t appear over night, but rather brick by brick our thoughts require that kind of attention to the final outcome.
A great place to have a shift occur is in looking at what you already have abundantly. Gratitude and the energy vibration associated with it resonate greater Abundance into our life. Possibly, your relationships, health, food, shelter, material prosperity, friends, youth (or relative youth) are all part of your abundance.
Feel and be thankful for that which you have and just as the apple tree produces greater and greater harvest, so to will you. Hold these kinds of thoughts and feeling during your night and day then see the difference.
What about the air as a source of Abundance and health? We can live about one month without food, a week without water and five minutes without air.
Without air, the rest of our physical life would soon end. We can never cease to exist, unless that is what we choose. Every aspect of life flows from inside us.
Spring is just arriving on the East Coast of North America!
An amazing display of abundance and renewal unfolds without our help. I have often thought that it’s an amazing clue to our own existence, how so? From apparent death (winter) comes abundant life in an explosion of profuse colors and growth, this is renewal. From mortal death, comes a new life as well. It’s a clue to our True selves.
How many Spring seasons have you witnessed?
How many have you lived through? We all can and do become pre-occupied with our life, family, work, relationships, etc. Its part of the dream of life or nightmare, which ever you choose.
Positive thoughts and feelings yield positive results; the reverse is also true.
Abundance can take many forms as we have been discussing. Remember to think and feel Abundantly blessed and those thoughts and feelings will continue to resonate in your life, leaving no aspect unimproved.
We all want Freedom, Abundance, good health, material prosperity, joy, great relationships. These are the some of the blessings of proper thoughts, words and deeds.
Lets consider a friend of mine who recently relayed an interesting story. Barbara (her very name) had a need for some extra money, so she focused on it very intently. Moreover, just as we’ve been discussing, the money arrived in the form of two checks. One day, prior to her need a two thousand-dollar check arrived, immediately she knew where it came from. She also, wisely tithed some of the gift. The next day another check arrived for one thousand dollars.
Wow! Just like magic. She also told that for many months after this she was very tired and attributed this to the energy that she had expended to receive per her need. It’s a great story, which we can all learn from and the tiredness reflects the intensity that she approached her need with.
Look at Nature, yes there is occasional intensity, storms, etc. but usually after intensity a long pause and refreshing period follow.
I suspect that the two things missing from her activity were the refreshing pause and in turn she had somewhat depleted her energies.
Now for the fun part of all this reading, lets bring some Abundance into our life!
Focus on an area of lack in your life, whatever it is feel it and think about it for a moment. Stop there now, you have identified the area of lack. Now focus your thoughts on this superficial lack (and I say superficial due to the fact that there is no True lack) when we tune into Abundance. Whenever the thought of lack occurs as you go about the day, stop your train of thought and replace these lack thoughts with thoughts and feelings of Abundance and Gratitude, for the very thing that you seek.
Feel and believe as if you have exactly what you desire, just perfect for you (and yours) in every way. Engage your creative mind and continue to feel and believe that you have, whatever it is in great Abundance. After some time, whether it’s a month or several months, trust your instincts to tell you when you have sufficiently focused upon the object. One other hint, two times to really focus is when you first wake up and when you are just getting to your bedtime routine.
Be clear, completely clear as to that which you seek. Write it down, date it and sign it. Maybe your statement would go something like this; ‘I am now enjoying a wonderful, loving and fulfilling relationship in my life’. Whatever it is write it down and keep it somewhere you can refer to it, periodically. Always engage the feelings, emotions and belief that you already have it and then watch it materialize in your life.
Thank You so much for taking the opportunity to improve your life, something we all desire at some level. Please read this a few times the first week (early morning and late evening are best). Slowly taper reading after you completely understand this writing and have started to put into practice the item of your strongest desire.
