Rise Up

 

By Kelly Carroll

 

 

There are times when things don’t feel right and we think that our life isn’t “working”.

We are all entitled to a bad day once in a while.  People also go through times in their life that are deeply challenging.  When things seem to be going wrong it can help to take some time and see how you are handling it.  Is there something you can do to help yourself to feel better?  Is there something you can change in your thinking to change your situation?  Yes.  There are things you can change and think and be that can make your situation more smooth and begin to flow in the way you would like to see it flowing.

 

First things first – how about a prayer?  Praying is simply talking to God.  A prayer is asking for what you want to see changed in your life.  Praying can turn something around and make it all look like a miracle happened.  The miracles will become much more commonplace when we pray on a regular basis and believe we can have what we are asking for.  That really is all that is required.  Ask and believe.  Then listen.  You will be guided from within if there are some thoughts you need to change, or some actions to take.

 

When you have asked for a change and prayed for a miracle, believe it is yours.  Be the change within yourself.  Think the change is yours even before you see it.  Own it.  Know you are loved and the Universe does answer, this is how It really is.  Don’t give up if you do not see your result in the time you thing it “should” happen.  Things are forming and changing in the unseen before they become seen.  And know also that there are no set rules; you may receive your answer or breakthrough in an instant.  Just trust that all things work together for good and leave it at that.  Keep believing and looking at the good all around you.  Let go and know your prayer is answered.

 

One of the things we can take a look at as we are asking for miracles, and receiving them is our self image.  There are thoughts we can choose about ourselves to allow our life to be more joyful and effortless.  How do you see yourself, really?  Are there any old limiting beliefs and thoughts about yourself you would like to see changed?  Know that you are the one who are holding on to these thoughts and you are the one that can choose to let them go.  Take the time to look within and be honest about how you see yourself.  If you ask, your inner self will show you the places where you may be holding on to thoughts about yourself and life that are not serving you anymore.  There is no reason to get upset when you see these thoughts, or to feel you cannot change them.  All that is required is awareness, and a decision to think about yourself in empowering images.  All people contain everything, so you get to choose how you see yourself and how you respond to the world.  Decide who you truly are and how you want to feel.  Then ask, and believe and BE.  If you want to live in the sunshine of Life, step out into the light.

Happy Easter!
