They go together
These two.
Faith provides
The patience needed
To move forward
With grace.
Dear One, as you move forward during this transitional stage upon this plane, you would be much calmer if you could allow patience and faith to guide you. The combination of these two attributes will provide you with a state of peace, without the intense emotion which drives so many in your world.
When you are in a highly emotional state, it is not possible to reach the clarity required to listen to your internal, higher guidance which speaks to you constantly. Faith allows you to trust not only that your world, your life, is evolving as it should. But it also allows you to trust in yourself and your connection with the Divine and All That Is.
You were never sent out into the ocean of the physical world untethered, without a life-line, a connection to guide you safely home. Your human perspective may believe that you have been abandoned to drift alone in a sea of chaos. But if you can trust the connection that is present, at all times, ready to guide you forward, you may begin to see and believe that all is well.
You have the expression that the glass is half empty or half full. Depending on the viewer, it can be described either way, one more hopeful than the other. All of life here upon this plane can be seen from either perspective. Which one do you choose?
Challenges which appear before you are a means to an end. And that end is your personal growth. Reflect upon previous challenges and how they affected you. Often you may have felt wounded and beaten down. But did those wounds allow you to feel compassion for others in similar situations? Were you able to move past those wounds and look back to see how your experience showed you an inner strength you did not realize was there?
Dear One, this life you live will always provide you with opportunities to grow. And if the same scenario continues to appear in your life, it is time for you to ask yourself how to move forward differently. A change in attitude, an approach with love rather than fear, a realization that reaching out to others will provide the help you need.
Your life provides lessons not only for you, but for those around you. And often you will never see how your presence in an interaction has affected another. No situation is punishment for a previous action. However, there is cause and effect, which means that approaching someone in anger will often provoke a mirrored response from them.
This life’s purpose is to gain knowledge and that will continue into eternity. Every moment of your day provides you an opportunity to see with more clarity and love. And many of the lessons which you chose to learn in this physical life may take many years to provide you with the knowledge that you came here to seek.
Can you begin each day with the thought that ‘All is well’? Can you believe that each day will provide you with a most wondrous experience? Can you trust that you will always be provided with the help needed to move forward? And can you understand that the help which comes your way may be through the most antagonistic person you meet?
You have choices every moment of your day. You can choose to see your life as a failure, a trial too difficult to continue alone. Or, you can take a step back and ask yourself what this experience is teaching you. Notice if you are repeating the same pattern over and over.
The most difficult piece is trusting yourself, loving yourself enough to seek the help and guidance you need. In those moments of despair, reflect upon how far you have already come and what you have survived. Celebrate your presence, your courage and your resolve to have come this far.
Dear One, can you have the faith to realize that you are never alone and the guidance which you seek is always there? Upon reflection of your life, can you see how far you have come and have the patience to know that you will continue to move forward with each breath that you take?
It begins with faith which will provide the patience you need to walk in peace and grace. You are a divine being on a journey of personal growth in a human form. Reach down and recover that divinity which consists of love and strength. It is there. It has always been there. And the existence of the Divine lives through you. You are connected at all times to the All That Is.
Trust yourself and your own divinity.
Trust your connection to the Divine.
Allow this trust to provide you
With the patience required
To move forward with grace.
You are never alone.
You are always provided
With the help you need.
And you are loved beyond measure,
Dear One With All of Thee.
