This is
part of your calendar year when some of your societies on
earth plane set aside a time, a day, dedicated to giving thanks. “Thanksgiving,” you’ve named it in
country you call
United States.
This is a good thing. The idea to set aside a time of thanks-giving was indeed a divinely inspired one. And there is a firm spiritual foundation underlying, if you will,
“giving of thanks.” It is what you might call a universal law. We shall call it, for today's discussion,
Law of Gratitude.
Another law of
Universe goes something like this: You get what you focus your time and energy on. It’s called
Law of Attraction. If you focus mostly on lack and limitation, those are what you experience in your life. If you focus mostly on abundance and prosperity, you will, you must, experience those in your life. It's
law! And it's your choice. You get to choose whether to use
laws of
Universe for or against yourself.
And so,
giving of thanks,
expression of gratitude, is a truly magical tool. A tool you have, literally, at
tip of your tongue. You would be hard-pressed to say there is nothing in your life you can be thankful for.
Sit down and make a list, if that will help you remember all
good things, all
abundance, you have in your life right now. Think about
clothes you wear,
food you eat,
roof you sleep under,
money you have (even though you may want more),
loving and supportive family and friends you are blessed with.
Give thanks for
many blessings you already have in your life, and they will increase. They must increase. It's
law of
Universe.
Make every day of your life Thanksgiving, a day of giving thanks to
Great Spirit, to
Universe, to your guides, teachers, and angels. And also thank your higher self,
one who, after all, helped you (the human “you”) create all
abundance you already have in your lives.
And, by
way, thank
human you too. You are all beings of great wisdom and courage. And we applaud your brave willingness to incarnate at this time in your planet’s history. A tumultuous time in many ways, but also a grand and glorious time to remember who you truly are. Your courage uplifts all, in your physical world and in our non-physical world. Your energy extends to
farthest reaches of
Universe, and uplifts all that is. That is how powerful you are, individually and together.
Giving thanks, expressing heartfelt gratitude, every day of your lives (even if only for a few moments each day) will indeed bring you rich rewards beyond your highest and wildest expectations and dreams.
