Law of Attraction – Page 2

“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.”~Melody Beattie

Gratitude is a powerful energy. Having gratitude and appreciating all that you have and all that you are is the first step toward creating space for more happiness, joy and increased abundance. Gratitude shifts your awareness from negative to positive. Gratitude gives you hope. Putting it out there by writing a few things each day will change your life in ways you can’t imagine!

Gratitude for what you already have helps bring your energy into present time and unlocks the potential for bringing in MORE! A daily practice or “gratitude journal” is a powerful tool for change. You may already have “lists” of what you’re grateful for but when you begin each day by stating and writing down what you are grateful for you put a chain of energy events in motion. Think of it this way; Gratitude is you seeing the glass 1/2 full instead of 1/2 empty.

Are you validating or invalidating what you already have?

“Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.”~John Milton

Having gratitude for what you already have validates that you can (and are) having what you have. How can you possibly make space for more if you are not grateful for that which you already have? In fact if you are not grateful for what you already have you are invalidating the gifts of abundance which already exist in your life. Having what you already have validates and honors you as a creator. Invalidating or thinking “it’s not enough” or it’s “not good enough” keeps you in a state of lack. The truth of the matter is that if you aren’t grateful for what you already have it will never be enough or good enough!

Gratitude is an inside job!

“Gratitude helps you to grow and expand; gratitude brings joy and laughter into your life and into the lives of all those around you.”~Eileen Caddy

Growing and expanding is always done from the inside out. Gratitude is about seeing the positive and the more grateful you are the more positives you will see. The more positive you see, the more positive, happy and empowered you feel! The more empowered, happy and positive you feel the more you give and share. The more you give and share the more blessed and abundant you feel which leads to even more abundance and gratitude. This chain of events begins the moment you put the energy of gratitude into play. Gratitude not only has a direct effect on your life but the lives of those around you. In essence it turns what “you have into enough” and turns “enough” into more!

You meditate, pray and wish for answers to your questions then you wish, meditate and pray some more. You keep doing this day after day yet nothing changes and you still don’t know which direction to go or what decision to make. Why is it that you do this over and over but sometimes it doesn’t feel like you are receiving the answers? Whether your question begins with “how” “what” “why” or “when” if you have to keep asking, you are not paying attention to the answers you are already receiving!

We are constantly bombarded with information from every which way and it’s not always easy to pick out what is an answer and what is not. It is rare indeed to get hit with a lightening bolt from above but that doesn’t mean your questions are not being answered. Often times they are right in front of you; In fact many of the answers you seek are being answered by repeatedly showing you the lesson you wanted to learn until you finally clear enough energy to see it and finally say “by George I’ve got it! Thank you!”

One tried and true method I use is to actually ask for the answer to be so clear that you can’t and won’t miss it. If you ask that way be fully prepared to pay attention to everything around you. The answer is there and, I might add, may come in many forms.

It could be in the smile of the grocery store clerk, the name written on the truck passing by, a fleeting thought or a conversation you’ve overheard. The answer may lie in taking a different direction after an obstacle has momentarily blocked your way. If you feel like you are off track maybe you were actually directed to the right one!

Everything happens for a reason and there are no coincidences especially when it comes to praying and wishing. Perhaps the timing wasn’t right, there was more energy that needed to clear or you didn’t take back your energy from a very an energetically charged event from your past. Many things come into play so there is no right or wrong. Sometimes it’s more about being aware of the small answers which are very much like puzzle pieces. Eventually they will all fit together to form the big picture. Be patient the signs are there and answer will come if it isn’t there already.

If you still feel like you are not receiving your answers rather than asking for the answer, ask what it is you need to clear to receive the answer. It may be that you can’t have what it is you are asking for. Your answers lie in finding your truth and only you can do that. Do you really want the truth? Can you have the truth? Are you willing to let go of whatever it is you’re holding on to which prevents you from seeing or knowing the answer to your question?

Ask once then let it go!

Your answers lie within you but there are outside signs to direct you. Once you ask a question don’t wait for the lightening bolt because it probably won’t come. It also isn’t necessary to continually ask the same question because your answers are coming to you and all you need do is pay attention to them. The more you ask the more stuck you become on the question instead of seeing, knowing, hearing, feeling or allowing the answer! So dear friends a very wise man once said “Ask and you shall receive. Knock and the door will be opened.” Ask once, be patient and be aware of the answers you are already receiving! ~Shine Your Light Debbie
