As spiritual beings in human form, we are often influenced by our willful selves. Many of us can be particularly stubborn when we want something (or someone) desperately, causing us to lazily focus on that thing or person to the exclusion of other things.
Even as the spirit gently nudges us in another direction and the universe patiently whispers, “No, that’s not your purpose,” we still stubbornly cling to our obsession.
God, Source, Spirit, Divinity only wants what is best for us and the Universe will never deny us that which serves our highest good. In Bible readings, messages from our guides, angels, and ancestors always come from a place of love, not from a place of withholding, rejection, punishment, revenge, fear, or neglect. Spirit wants us to live our best lives, experience lots of love, and grow personally and spiritually.
Spiritual counselors like me are sometimes “shot messengers.” Sometimes we read to people who are very uncomfortable with us because the guidance we receive from the Holy Spirit is not what they want to hear.
Sometimes people have made up their minds and will not accept any message or feedback that does not match what they want to hear in their reading. At the same time, I simply provide them with spiritual information.
Trusting the Universe means trusting that everything is happening for our highest good, even if it doesn’t feel like it at the moment~ Mastin Kipp
Even worse, the obstinate demands and obsessions of some of these disaffected individuals involve things and people they cannot morally, ethically, or legally have! For example, they may insist that someone else’s partner or spouse should be with them. In what alternate reality would this idea ensure good karma and abundant blessings in anyone’s life?
Of course, these situations never end well. I have seen this disastrous scenario with countless clients over the years. It doesn’t take a psychic to know that people who leave their significant others for someone else often hurt not only the person they left, but the person they left for.
Those who cheat on one partner often cheat on the other. It’s not “rocket science” but in my experience new lovers are usually surprised too when something done to them ends up happening to them in some way, shape or form In us, it’s just karma.
The universe will never randomly put someone you love into a relationship with another person who was meant to be there for you. The Source has a dedicated person for each of us, but when we are obsessed with the idea of being with someone else’s partner, we are less likely to meet that person. “I have to have this specific person” is simply not how the universe works.
While we think we know who or what is best for us, we often don’t. People don’t end up in failed, unhealthy, unfulfilling or even toxic relationships just because the universe made a mistake. They get into these relationships because of their own ego interference and lack of trust in the flow of the universe and divine design.if we persist no let go and no God forbid, when things go wrong we have only ourselves to blame.
When we trust the universe, we open ourselves to the endless possibilities life has to offer and invite the magic and mystery of the unknown ~ Bernadette Rogge
Being open to receiving the best outcomes from the universe is the only true path to eternal happiness, joy, and contentment. Your perfect partner will show up, but you have to let go of your attachment to a person or the results you didn’t get so that the right person can show up at the right time for the right reason. let it go.
This doesn’t just apply to romantic relationships and life partners. It also applies to all the other gifts and blessings in our lives.
That job you wanted but they gave it to someone else may have seemed like the perfect job for you, but years later you’ll look back and realize it wasn’t the best fit for you. Your dream job will come; but make room for it and let go of your attachment to the one you didn’t get so the right one will come. let it go.
I myself have been guilty of poor self-choices for years. One of the biggest lessons learned was when my ex cheated on me and ended up leaving me for someone else. I was in shock, but deep down in my soul I always knew what was happening. He was very opposed to my Reiki training, my spiritual development efforts, and my other spiritual interests. If he hadn’t left me for someone else, I would still be in that soulless marriage that I stubbornly wanted to last forever, and I wouldn’t be where I am today. I certainly don’t teach Reiki, give people spiritual counseling, or read!
It took me several years of self-development and therapy work before I dated again. But in the process, I released a lot of dysfunctional attachments and childhood baggage and simply allowed the Source to bring me my true love, and when it was meant to be, I was truly ready. Today I am married again, this time happily to a man who is 100% supportive of my livelihood. He may not understand it all, but he still supports my efforts unconditionally.
I know the universe is guiding me in perfect direction, timing, and order. Believing in the path of the universe gives me freedom and happiness in uncertainty~ Gabriel Bernstein
Another magical lesson is the house. I fell in love with a property that I wanted to own no matter what. I focused day and night on manifesting a way to get it, even to the point of obsession. This house is everything I have always dreamed of including a beautiful deck overlooking the water and a peaceful neighborhood.
Everything seemed to be going according to plan (except for that nagging feeling that it wasn’t going to happen). But before our financing was confirmed, someone else bought it. My heart is broken.
Just a few years later, the city expropriated the land behind the house, almost to the back door, and built a wider road that is now noisy and busy. The peace and tranquility of the manor disappeared. Meanwhile, The Source had a better idea. Today we live in a peaceful community just steps away from a beautiful lake (rather than having to deal with a busy highway behind our house). Yes, this is the little miracle the universe has in store for me!
So, next time the spirit encourages you to let go, maybe give it a try…instead of shooting the messenger. Let go of the need to control every outcome. When you surrender to the flow of life, you allow Source to work its magic. Embrace uncertainty and let the universe surprise you. Your life may change in amazing ways you never imagined.
