What is Your World Like...

One of the most important decisions you’ll ever make is choosing the kind of universe you exist in. 


Is it helpful and supportive or hostile and unsupportive? Your answer to this question will make all the difference in terms of how you live your life and what kind of Divine assistance you attract. Remember that you get what you think about, whether you want it or not. So if you’re sure that this is an unfriendly universe, you’ll look for examples to support this point of view. 

You’ll anticipate people attempting to cheat, judge, take advantage of, and otherwise harm you. You’ll blame the antagonistic, inhospitable cosmos for not cooperating with you in the fulfillment of your desires. You’ll point the finger at belligerent folks and bad luck for the kind of world we all live in. Since this worldview trickles down into every thought you have, you become a person persistently looking for occasions to be offended, and therefore in possession of a whole slew of excuses. 

But we can change all that by shifting our focus. My favorite affirmation when I feel stuck or out of sorts is...(Jot this down and post it conspicuously throughout your home, on the dashboard of your car, at your office, on your microwave oven, and even in front of your toilet!) Remind yourself: Such a stance will be a giant step toward living an 'Excuses Begone! life'.

Thus, you are affirming that what you want is already here and all you have to do is connect to it. This reminds you that what you attract is for your highest good, so you can then let go of the timing issue altogether. Just know that it is here and will arrive on God’s schedule—as does everything that makes the journey from nonbeing to being. 

When I pray, I do so in the spirit of Saint Francis. Rather than ask God to grant him peace, this inspiring man beseech God to “make me an instrument of Thy peace.” In other words, “Let me be like the Source from which I originated, and then I will rest in the knowing that it must be here, on its way, and for my highest good.” As you can see, there’s no room for excuses when you apply this model to your everyday life. 

Whatever I need is already here, and it is all for my highest good. I live in a friendly universe that will support anything or desire that is aligned with the universal Source of all.

With the Love of the Angels
