Sally, one of my clients, was struggling with her trust in
universe. I asked her to think about a time when she knew she was being guided and supported. “Well, one important time was when I was thinking of quitting college. I had gone to my college that day with
intention of quitting when I ran into an old friend. We sat and talked, and then I went home. It was only after I got home that I realized that I forgot to quit. I stayed in school and finished and it was one of
best things I ever did for myself. I know that day Spirit made sure I ran into my friend so that I would forget about quitting! Another time was when my baby son was in
hospital, very very sick. The doctor said he might not survive
night. I prayed and prayed and put my body over his and sent all of my love into him. Immediately his fever went down and he was okay. God was definitely with me.” Remembering these times helped Sally to reaffirm her trust in God.
I cannot think of a better way to reduce or eliminate anxiety than to decide to trust
universe. When we are in
midst of extreme difficulties, reminding ourselves that we are being guided is a powerful way to stay present and centered and handle
difficulties.
After
trauma of my house burning subsided, I questioned my Guidance regarding why I wasn’t warned in a way that could have stopped
house from burning. I was told that, because I had lived and worked in that house for 31 years, too much of my energy was in
house. Spirit needed to help me by burning out
energy, so that my health would not be adversely affected by people tapping into my energy. I was told that my house burning was for my benefit, even though it felt so traumatic at
time. In addition, I received more compensation from
insurance than I did from selling
house! What seemed like a disaster turned out to be a good thing.
Because we have free will, each of us has
option of deciding to trust that we are truly being supported by
universe, that even very challenging situations are all opportunities to evolve our soul in love – toward ourselves and others. Life is filled with ups and downs, with good times and bad. It’s important to realize that when bad things happen it does not mean that we are not being supported and guided in our soul’s journey. Inner peace comes when we trust that
universe always supports our highest good.
