Oh, these times are tricky and sticky!  It’s easy to get triggered and go off on a tangent.

In our spiritual waking up journey there are times when it feels like we’re stuck in a quagmire. It can feel like a whirlpool that keeps us in the spin cycle. I’m very familiar with it. This pattern of recycling through the same patterns again and again is familiar to everyone. What you must know is that you don’t have to figure out how to get out of it in order to break free of it. You just have to be willing to get out of it in order to find the way out.

It’s as if there is a doorway, or a gateway, that is ALWAYS available to us, but we can’t see it until we’re genuinely willing to surrender the attachment to playing small and living in lack and limitation.

How do you unhook the attachment to playing small and living in lack and limitation? Unhook the cause of it.

That’s right. Unhook the root cause of the mental pattern that keeps you stuck in the spin cycle, in the whirlpool, in the quagmire.

What IS the root cause?

It’s simply these beliefs:

Someone is better than or less than you.

If you’re a dedicated spiritual student then by now you know, at least on an intellectual level, that there is a unity of all life.

If all is one, is it even possible for anyone to be better than or less than you? No. Of course not. That’s a fantasy. We’re one. We’re united.

Does it seem impossible to give up a belief in better than and less than?
If you believe it, then it will appear to be true for you and it will be the cause of your suffering, your sense of lack and limitation. It’s just a belief and no matter how much you invest in it, it will never be true. No matter how little you invest in it, it will always cause suffering.

Call upon the angelic realm, the ascended masters, the ancestors, call upon the Company of Heaven that are always there to support you if you will allow yourself to be supported. Don’t ask for stuff in the material world.

Ask for willingness, ask for the strength to see clearly, to choose Love.

The key is to surrender and be truly willing.
Surrender the heavy lifting of HOW to figure it out to the Higher Holy Spirit Self. ALLOW your healing. Make yourself a welcome, ready and receptive place for it.

If you start to wonder how it’s going to happen, say to yourself “How is not my problem. I choose to allow my healing. I choose Love now.”

As soon as you are truly, genuinely willing to give up the right to your attack thoughts, the light has come and you will begin to see the gateway, the way out of stuckness. It’s there, it’s always there. When we choose to block the light of Love in our awareness by cherishing our thoughts of lack and attack then we cannot see clearly.

Your willingness to depend on a higher intelligence than the one that made you miserable, is all that is required.

Depend on your spirit, the great I AM. Start listening and following. Be obedient to Love’s impulse in you. Love doesn’t need anything. Love is never manipulative or self-serving, ever. Love IS everything. Love doesn’t know lack.

The end of lack is when you fully are willing to stop attacking and simply BE Love. THEN, the power of Love will operate in you and you will be able to clearly perceive the way out of the quagmire, you’ll see the gateway and have the strength to choose it, and it won’t take much.

Attack thoughts weaken you in ALL ways.
Love strengthens you ALWAYS.

Love yourself first. Do this:
Replace the unkind with the kind in your daily choices. Choose Love.
Love strengthens you always.
Suffering IS optional – no matter what your experience has been in this world.

You don’t have to make yourself stop doing doing the negative habits – that can be really hard. Instead, replace the unloving with loving and then you’re moving at the speed of light before you know it! Try it! It works!

Power of Love In-Person Retreat Memorial Day Weekend in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina!  May 23 to 26.

Join me NEXT Saturday, May 17 for a WORKSHOP Why Can’t I Be Happy?  

My May Deep Dive Workshop topic is Why Can’t I Be Happy?   Joy is our natural state, yet, I’ve talked with countless spiritual students who have been on this path for decades who struggle because they can’t seem to find a true happiness, a fundamental Joy.  In my experience, when we truly live the teachings of A Course in Miracles then Peace is revealed, and happiness is its constant companion.  In this workshop I’ll share tips and tools that really work increase your happiness immediately.  We don’t have to wait until the world lines up the way we’d like it to in order to experience more happiness.  Our happiness does not come from the world and it never will.  Click now to register.
