What do you see? Is this real? Thought up? Expectation? What is your perspective made up from? Do you see misery? Do you see freedom? Happiness? Joy? Sadness? Frustration? What do you see?
Then ask yourself what it is that you WANT to see?
Always. When we are in need of being challenged by the many random thoughts of what we have or what we don't have, what they have, that I do not, and how do I get from here to there? Do I have the 'it' factor? the skills? talent? Do I really want that?....
I am being encouraged to step back and look through different eyes. Look through the eyes of beauty, and grace, of friendship, and love... see through the eyes of love and a sense of hopefulness. See through the eyes of VICTORY. What challenges for me, may be the greatest of opportunity for another, to appreciate and learn... to bask in their own light, their success, their glory; to shine their light out onto the world. And what can we learn from one anthers journey?
I can choose to step back and see all of God's 'things' as beautiful, unique, glorious, and adventurous... see the full scope of my surroundings... and then surrender to the will and bask in the beauty of all that may be offered.
The full scope. and with that decisions. Believe.. there is just something about that word that leaves me lagging from afar. To Believe is to accept something as true; to feel sure of the truth. The 2nd definition is to hold something as an opinion, to think or suppose. I am going to say that it is within that context that leaves me lagging. To Believe, I feel, is to not think or suppose... but rather to hold as truth.
Naturally... a voice yells "Get
out of your own way!" I hear clearly... yet I do not fully understand. Or perhaps it's just me, unable to commit fully to faith... even though I have experienced plenty of naturally glowing moments. But this trust can also take me back to places where I am not sure that I want to re-enter or re-visit in my mind. But, it seems as though I must, in order to comprehend the full impact on my presence.
The list: (yes, again) and The reminder: (without the guilt or shame). I begins as such,
"I am a talented, strong, and successful being of God, the Divine, the Universe. Co-Creation." I am only as successful as I allow myself to be, and at this time, it seems, as far as I allow the limitations to take over. And with that I wonder, how long can this doubting continue. The answer will always be, for as long as I allow it... with that, louder, "take the reigns and show them who is boss!" <3
Stepping out on Faith, in full belief, is to know with every ounce of surety that my intention has been set out firmly, loud, and crystal clear. But the challenge remains, to access this quality, this sense of faith and clarity, with each breath that I take.
I do also know that this is tied in with 'monetary reward,' and perhaps that phrasing is what keeps me stuck. While releasing the past, judgments, expectations, and limits, it's to do this whole and complete.... truly forgiving... asking for a full pardon.
In linking this with a business start-up, to learn and to understand how to instill the necessary wealth-building qualities and principles that will allow me to be successful; to remove the blocks and chains. This is the only road to prosperity.... through empowerment. and the only way to empowerment is through love.
Today's meditation will sift through the shame, blame, and guilt... to seek the accountability and my responsibility, and to make my way along this pathway... to a clear sense and longing of the love and vision that I so desire.
Lots of work to manage myself through today. With love, always, Lori-Lynn
