SYNC WITH THE UNIVERSE
WHEN WE GET IN SYNC WITH UNIVERSE, WE BEGIN TO EXPERIENCE MANY MIRACULOUS AND MYSTERIOUS SYNCHRONICITIES. THESE SYNCHRONICITIES MAY SEEM WILD AND UNEXPLAINABLE AT FIRST, BUT THE MORE FAITHFUL YOU BECOME THE MORE COMMONLY THEY OCCUR. A COURSE IN MIRACLES TEACHES US. "MIRACLES ARE NATURAL. WHEN THEY DO NOT OCCUR, SOMETHING HAS GONG WRONG". WHAT'S NATURAL IS OUR PEACEFUL, LOVING INTINCT AND OUR CONNECTION TO THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE. WHAT'S UNNATURAL IS THE FEAR THAT DEFENDS AGAINST THIS CONNECTION. FEAR, ALONG WITH GUILT, SEPARATION, JUDGMENT, AND ATTACK BLOCK AS US FROM THE MIRACLES THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO US ALL THE TIME.
WHEN WE BELIEVE IN THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE AND ALLOW IT TO MOVE THROUGH US, WE ARE A CLEAR CHANNEL TO RECEIVE GREAT GIFTS AND GUIDANCE. WHEN SYNCHRONICITY DOES NOT OCCUR AND WE DO NOT FEEL GUIDED, IT'S CLEAR SIGN THAT WE'VE FALLEN BACK INTO OUR FEARFUL PATTERNS.
OUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEY IS AN EXPERIENCE OF REMEMBERING THAT WE ARE LOVE. THE MORE WE EMBODY THIS TRUTH, THE MORE MIRACLES WE WILL EXPERIENCE. WE ACCEPT THAT MIRACLES ARE A NATURAL PART OF WHO WE ARE. AND WHEN WE LIVE IN LOVE, WE LIVE A MIRACULOUS LIFE.
NOW, I DON'T EXPECT YOU TO BECOME ENLIGHTENED OVERNIGHT AND LIVE IN LOVE ALL THE TIME! BUT LET'S AIM TO BRING IN MORE LOVE. WHEN THE LIGHT SHINES, THE DARKNESS CANNOT CO-EXIST WITH IT. IT'S TIME TO IGNITE YOUR UNNER LIGHT AND LET IT SHINE BRIGHTLY SO THAT YOU CAN OWN, HONOR, AND EMBRACE YOUR TRUE CONNECTION TO THE UNIVERSE. CONTINUE TO PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO WHEN YOU'RE BLOCKING MIRACLES, AND IN THAT INSTANT CHOOSE AGAIN.
LOOK FOR LOVE AND EXPECT MIRACLES
THIS NEXT STEP IS TO SPEND MINDFUL MOMENTS THROUGHOUT THE DAY LOOKING FOR LOVE. WHEN YOU DELIBERATELY FOCUS YOUR ATTENTION ON LOVE AND JOY, THEN YOU OPEN THE FOODGATES TO RECEIVE MIRACLES. MOST OF US GET CAUGHT UP FOCUSING ON WHAT'S GOING WRONG. BUT WHAT IF WE SPENT OUR DAYS LOOKING AT ALL THAT'S GOING RIGHT? MAKE A CONSCIOUS EFFORT TO LOOK FOR LOVE THROUGHOUT THE DAY.
TO IGNITE THIS PROCESS, BEGIN YOUR DAY WITH A PRAYER: " I FOCUS MY ATTENTION ON THE LOVE THAT IS AROUND ME, AND I EXPECT MIRACLES".
REPEAT THIS PRAYER AND FEEL THE POWER OF THESE WORDS. KNOW THAT YOUR WILLINGNESS TO SAY THESE WORDS OUT LOUD WILL SET YOU ON THE RIGHT FOOT. WHEN YOU LOOK FOR LOVE, YOU PROACTIVELY COLLABORATE WITH THE UNIVERSE TO BRING YOU BACK TO A MIRACLE MIND-SET. REMEMBER, A SIMPLE SHIFT IN YOUR PERCEPTION IS A MIRACLE. THE MOMENT THAT YOU FORGIVE YOUR SPOUSE AND MOVE ON FROM A STUPID ARGUMENT IS A MIRACLE. OR WHEN YOU ASK FOR A SIGN FROM THE UNIVERSE AND YOU GET IT, IT'S A MIRACLE. MIRACLE CAN BE WILD SYNCHRONICITIES OR THEY CAN BE SIMPLE SHIFTS. THE COURSE SAYS, "THERE IS NO ORDER OF DIFFICULTY AMONG MIRACLES".
IT'S IMPORTANT TO CELEBRATE THESE MIRACLES BY SAYING THANK YOU TO THE UNIVERSE. THANKING THE UNIVERSE REINFORCES YOUR FAITH AND TRUST THAT YOU'RE IN SYNC WITH A POWER GREATER THAN YOURSELF. REMEMBER THAT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE UNIVERSE IS AN ONGOING CONVERSATION. THE BEST CONVERSATION BEGIN WITH THE WORDS THANK YOU.
PRACTICE NONINTERFERENCE
PAY ATTENTION TO HOW YOU YOUR DAY SHIFTS WHEN YOU COMMIT TO LOVE. THE COURSE SAYS, "YOU NEED DO NOT ANYTHING". YOU DON'T NEED TO "WORK MIRACLES" OR MAKE ANYTHING HAPPEN. YOU MERELY ALIGN WITH YOUR TRUE LOVE NATURE AND ALLOW YOUR EYES TO SEE WHAT YOU DESIRE.
THE COURSE TEACHES THAT MIRACLES ARE HABITS AND SHOULD BE INVOLUNTAR. THEY SHOULD NOT BE UNDER CONSCIOUS CONTROL, BECAUSE CONSCIOUSLY SELECTED MIRACLES CAN BE MISGUIDED. WITH THIS IMPORTANT MESSAGE, THE COURSE REMINDS US TO TURN INWARD AND ASK FOR HELP WHENEVER WE DISCONNECT FROM OUR MIRACLE MIND-SET. MIRACLES BECOME INVOLUNTARY WHEN WE MAKE TURNING TO LOVE A HABIT. WHEN WE DETOUR INTO FEAR, WE CAN CALL ON THE UNIVERSE TO HELP US RESTORE OUR THOUGHTS BACK TO LOVE. WHENEVER WE ASK FOR HELP, THE MIRACLES WILL BE PRESENTED. WE DON'T NEED TO DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN BE RECEPTIVE TO THE GUIDANCE THAT COMES. THIS RELAXED RELATIONSHIP WITH THE UNIVERSE GIVES US THE CHANCE TO BE AT PEACE.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED WILL BE SHOWN TO YOU
HEIGHTEN YOUR FAITH
THE NEXT STEP IN CO-CREATING WITH THE UNIVERS IS TO CREAT A FAITH STATEMENT.
THIS EXERCISE BEGINS WITH A QUESTION:
WHA WOULD YOUR LIFE BE LIFE IF YOU KNEW YOU WERE ALWAYS BEING GUIDED?
TAKE A MOMENT TO FREE-WRITE YOUR RESPONSES.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO DIFFERENTLY IF KNEW THAT THE UNIVERSE HAD YOUR BACK?
DO YOU HAVE SPIRITUAL PROOF THAT THE UNIVERSE IS IN FACT GUIDING YOU? WRITE YOUR STORY. (IF YOU DON'T HAVE PROOF YET, YOU WILL BY THE TIME YOU COMPLETE THIS CHAPTER. FEEL FREE TO REVISIT THIS LESSON LATER)
FEEL THE FAITHFUL ENERGY THAT THIS STORY IGNITES. IF YOU DON'T HAVE YOUR OWN SPIRITUAL PROOF, IT'S FINE TO LEAN ON SOMEONE ELSE'S STORY OR ON ANY OF THE STORIES IN THIS CHAPTER.
TAKE A FEW MOMENTS TO TAP INOT THE FEELINGS OF FAITH THAT THESE STORIES IGNITE.
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE IN FAITH?
WHAT DOES YOUR FAITH FIVE YOU THE FREEDOM TO DO OR DO OR BE?
NOW LET'S CREATE FAITH STATEMENT. THIS STATEMENT HELPS YOU ACCESS YOUR COMMITMENT TO THE UNIVERSE AND THE POSITIVE CO-CREATION OF YOUR LIFE. THE GOAL IS TO MAKE A FAITH STATEMENT THAT IGNITES A FEELING OF LOVE, CONNECTION, AND INSPIRATION WITHIN YOU. THIS STATEMENT CAN BE WHATEVER YOU WANT IT TO BE.
MY FAITH STATEMENT IS " I KNOW THAT THE UNIVERSE IS AN EVER-PRESENT ENERGY FIELD OF LOVE. I KNOW THAT WHEN I ALIGN WITH THE ENERGY OF LOVE THROUGH THOUGHTS, ACTIONS, AND BELIEFS, I AM GIVEN INFINITE SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE. I KOW THAT I CAN CO-CREATE MY REALITY WITH THIS LOVING PRESENCE SO THAT I CAN LIVE IN JOY AND SPREAD LIGHT.
READING THIS STATMENT OUT LOUD MOVE S ME TO TEARS. THAT'S THE GOAL. WRITE FEW STATEMENT THAT MOVES YOU FROM YOUR CORE. USE SOME OF WHAT YOU'VE ALREAY WRITEN DOWN IN YOUR RESPONSE ABOVE AND WRITE A STATEMENT THAT LOCKS YOU INTO A HEART-CENTERED STATE OF FAITH IN THE UNIVERSE.
WRITE YOUR FAITH STATEMENT, AND DON'T EDIT A WORD. WRITE DOWN WHATEVER COMES OUT. DON'T JUDGE WHAT YOU WRITE, AND DON'T TRY TO MAKE IT PERFECT, JUST LET IT FLOW. YOU CAN ALWAYS EXPAND UPON YOUR FAITH STATEMENT, SO DON'T FEEL STUCK IN WHAT YOU WRITE.
