The world needs your Light right now



ABRAHAM:

Your natural state is that of Well-Being.

The only opinion, in all of the Universe, that is of true importance to you, is your own. And your own opinion of you, affects the entire Universe.

The creative life force, or energy of the Universe, flows through you and literally connects you to All-That-Is. Through your attention, or focus of thought, you draw the specifics unto you.


Example of Living Joyously

JERRY: I was lying on the beach today, or on a rock at the beach at the La Jolla Cove, and just in total ecstasy. Every breath was bringing in fragrances from the ocean and the seaweed, and all. It almost lifted me off the rock. And the sun touching my body was so spectacular and the breeze over my body, I just let it flow to no thoughts, only those marvelous, marvelous feelings. And then I thought, "Gee, I guess a person could stay here forever and do this." And then I thought... "But then I'm not doing any good." And then I thought... "Abraham, said that we're doing good by example more than we are by words." And then I thought... "Boy, being happy as I am, must be the best example." Then then I said... "But nobody knows I'm happy, 'cause I'm here by myself." 

[And on the rock Jerry thought about when he was a child and he decided he wanted to do work for God. He talked about going from church to church and not finding out what was God's work. And he decided maybe he could be an uplifter and help people feel better about themselves.]

But then I come back to you, and you say that we really don't have to do any work, that just to be joyous and happy is doing enough work for all of the ...all beings in the Universe. Would you clarify that little moment of confusion I had on the rock today?

ABRAHAM: You are a physical being, looking through physical eyes, still thinking that 'doing' is what makes the difference. Still believing that it is through your action that you accomplish, or offer, while we continue to want to guide you to the understanding that is through your thought and corresponding feeling that you create, you see....

...ACTION IS THE WAY YOU ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE MADE MANIFEST THROUGH YOUR THOUGHT....

As you think, you feel. Always. And as you feel, you ooze. You know that.... If you are mad at your child and you are still saying sweet words, your child still knows he's in trouble. All of you are receiving on levels far beyond your language. And so, as you think, you feel. As you feel, you radiate or influence, and that is what is making the difference. That is why when you lay on the rock and bask in the glory of beingness, oozing that fantastic positive Energy, you are uplifting All-That-Is. Everyone who seeks it, now has access to that which you are feeling....

Abraham quotes are from A New Beginning II by Jerry and Esther Hicks, p. 145, p. 154, p. 156 and pp. 218-220.

When I said the world needs your Light right now, I wanted to let you know how valuable your appreciation, your joy, and your happiness are. In big waves or brief, gentle moments, appreciation not only feels good to you, but it is extending Well-Being into the physical world and we all benefit. It is enough to feel good, but in addition, Abraham tells us the inspiration from those good feelings will inspire us to action that is even more pleasurable.

Thank you for the loving, Light that you are.

To change circumstances, tell a new story

Abraham tells us we create by our thoughts. A thought repeated over and over becomes a belief, or another way of looking at it, it becomes our story. If we want to manifest new circumstances then one way we can do that is tell a new story. This is from a section about physical health, but it applies to any circumstances.

You are the only one who creates in your experience -- no one else. Everything that comes to you comes by the power of your thought.

When you focus long enough that you feel passion, you harness more power and you achieve greater results. The other thoughts, while they are important and have creative potential, usually are only maintaining what you have already created. And so, many people continue to maintain unwanted physical experiences simply by offering consistent -- not powerful, and not accompanied by strong emotions -- thoughts. In other words, they merely continue telling the same stories about things that seem unfair, or unwanted things that they disagree with, and in doing so, they maintain unwanted conditions. The simple intention of telling better feeling stories about all subjects that you focus upon will have a great effect on your physical body. But since words do not teach, it is our suggestion that you try telling a different story for a while and observe for yourself what happens.

From Money and the Law of Attraction,, Esther and Jerry Hicks, p.102

I'll give you a tool that goes with telling a new story. This is a process from the book Busting Loose from the Money Game by Robert Scheinfeld. I read the book several years ago and just wrote down the process, not the page number. I may not even be quoting him exactly, but it will give you the idea. Some of his ideas felt right to me, some didn't. I took from it some very helpful processes though. I love this tool to reclaim reclaim our power, for that is what we are doing when we tell a new story. We may have given the old story power when we were too young or vulnerable to see that it didn't suit us. Now we can consciously choose the story of our life any way that pleases us. You may feel peace, relief, joy. You may or may not have an intense experience, but you are clearly telling a new story using this process. Change any words to those that feel right to you.

If you are having negative feelings, feel them to the peak of intensity and then say:

I am the Power and Presence of God creating this. It's not real. It's an illusion. It's completely made up. It's a creation of my consciousness.

I reclaim my power from this creation NOW! As I reclaim that power I feel it coming back to me. (Pause and feel the power, the relief of it returning). I feel it surging into me. (Pause and feel it surging, feel the joy and energy.)

As I feel the surge, I feel myself expanding more and more into who I really am, the Power and Presence of God. I feel myself expressing more and more of who I am in my human experience. I AM the Power and Presence of God. I am in infinite abundance (or health, well-being, etc) right here and now.

Now you know you created this and you reclaimed your power. Acknowledge your power and appreciate your creation from your old story.

How amazing I am to create this and convince myself it was real. How amazing the creation was and how well it served me.

I had a aunt that had a very large birthmark that covered the complete side of her face, but she was a beautiful, confident, attractive woman. She was talking about it one day and I said I didn't even see it, and I didn't. I just saw her. She told me that when she was a child my grandfather used to tell her every day that she was beautiful and a time came when she believed him.

It can be great fun and very freeing to tell a new story. It doesn't have to start from what you think is reality and go on from there. Start anywhere you want and have fun with it. I've told myself stories about time travel or going to other dimensions that were great fun. I let go of all of the "beliefs" of this world and created my own.

You are telling a story anyway, now tell yourself a story that pleases you.
