Staying Positive with Tickles and Sparkles #24 April 26, 2008 Written by Julie Humphrey
Greetings my Wonderful Friends Today a good friend called me and asked me if I would write a news letter about patience. Wow! What a great idea I told her. I had been asking the Universe for some guidance as to what to write about this week. I received her phone call just minutes after asking for guidance on this. I guess you could say I was quite amazed at how quickly my answer came. Thank you Laura for your inspiration
Is Patience Really a Virtue?
How often have we all heard the statement that Patience is a Virtue I am sure you have heard it many times during your lifetime I know I have. We all seem to desire a quick immediate answer to all of our questions in life. We have become a society of very demanding people. If we see something we want we will stop at nothing until we get it or we change our minds and want something else. Instead of being patient we will pull out the credit card to buy what we want right now instead of waiting until we have the cash to pay for it. Oh yea I am guilty of this one also. There are many ways we have let go of this wonderful virtue called patience. As people we tend to drive faster and work harder and live life in the fast lane never taking time to smell the roses so to speak. We are raising children who want everything given to them just because, we are their parents and they expect what ever that they may want to be given them right now! There seems to be a loss of patience in so many ways today. How can we change this and allow patience to become part of us as a whole society once again. It starts at home and with you and me. We need to open our minds to taking the time to become patient with our needs and the needs of others. We are always hurrying around doing this and that and expect things to be done immediately if not sooner for us. I am sure that you have prayed for an answer to some situation in your life at one time or another and never heard the answer to your prayer because your mind was so busy looking for the answer and how it may come to you. By being patient you will get your answer it may come to you in many different ways. The next time you pray or meditate focus on your question then silence your mind and think of nothing. This may take some patience on your part but as you let go of the thoughts that are filling your mind. You allow spirit to communicate within this silence. You will receive an answer to your question and it will be received at the perfect time for you. What other ways do we need to focus on having more patience? Being patient enough to listen as well as speak to our children and families and friends. We are so busy that we rarely hear what people are talking to us about. Our minds are filled with our own thoughts of what we are going to say next. Be patient while you are driving to work in the mornings or coming home in the evenings. Maybe the person in front of you is not in as big of hurry as you are to arrive at their destination. Make time to leave a little earlier so that you will be a more patient driver. Have you ever been at the grocery store and there was a person in front of you with a basket of groceries piled high while you only had a couple of things. You may have stood there being angry that there were not any other check-out lanes open. Maybe you just wished that the cashier would quit visiting with the customer and hurry up so you could get through the line. Or just maybe it was you that had the basket filled with groceries and the person behind you, is complaining that there are not enough cashiers and why were they not sending someone to open another check-out lane. What is called for here is patience! Take the time to clear your mind and allow happy thoughts to enter instead of focusing on how angry you are that things are not moving fast enough for you.
We are all guilty of being impatient and wanting things to be manifested more quickly for us. Wouldnt it be nice if what ever we wanted manifested immediately for us? I do not think so! Actually the universe is providing what you want at the right time for you. But it is good that our wants are not immediately manifested because you may end up with something you really do not want. Be patient with the universe and allow Divine timing to bring in what is best for you at the perfect time.
I have talked to many people and told them that if they focus on the positive then positive things will come in for them. Then within a few weeks I hear from them and they tell me that nothing is happening and they are ready to give up because what they want is not manifesting for them. I have to tell you that it takes patience and you have to focus on positive thoughts if you want your life to change directions and bring in better things for you. It does not happen over night as much as we would love it to. In fact I wake up in the morning and tell my self to focus only on happy thoughts no matter what happens through out the day. I will remain happy and I intend on showing the universe I am open to having what I want in Divine timing. I am showing the universe that I have patience and that I am willing to allow what ever is best for me to be manifested at the right time. Even if something happens during the day that starts to bring me down I take a moment to remind my self that this is just an illusion and that if I choose to think about something more positive I will attract a positive outcome to what ever may have started to bring me down.
Affirmations for this Week
I am allowing my self to be more patient with all people in my life. I am allowing patience to be one of my many virtues. I am patient in knowing that the universe will supply me with all that I need in Divine timing. I am becoming more patient with my self and focusing only on positive thoughts. By having more patience I will attain that which I desire more easily under grace and in a perfect way.
May your week be filled with Patience and Happy Outcomes for your Wishes Hopes and Dreams Blessings from Julie
