It's Time

Sarah Ban Breathnach writes in Simple Abundance. . . .

"Has the other path worked?  Have any of the world's gifts given you authentic happiness?......Here's what I think happens," she writes.  "Just before we come to earth to begin this life, we are given a photograph of our futures--the Divine Plan--to get us excited about the great adventure ahead.  As the photo pops out of the celestial camera, we're in such a hurry to get on with it, we grab the negative instead of the photograph. . . .

Now we've got the pattern of a fabulous life, but the perspective is reversed.  What's white looks black.  What's black appears white.  We've got the big picture, but it's backward.  So we cry when we should be laughing, are envious when we should feel inspired, experience deprivation instead of abundance, do it the hard way instead of the easy way, pull back instead of reaching out.  And worst of all, we close our hearts so we won't get hurt, when opening them is the only way we'll ever know joy."

"How many times have we waited for Spirit to move for us, when in fact, Spirit is waiting to work with us?  Today, take the negative of your Divine Plan and let Love develop it so that you can begin living the life for which you were created."
