A CHALLENGE

There is a part of me that loves to make up stories which are not always positive and uplifting. I suppose I've done that throughout my life, but sometimes these made up words and pictures do not serve me well. In fact, they often slow me down or even stop me from being who I am.

I suppose it is part of the human lesson. It can truly be a challenge that is sometimes difficult and also rewarding. Every time I face a challenge, my greatest learning tool is my heart felt feeling as to overcoming the blocks that arise to stop me.

This, however, can only be true if I am open to my strengths and weakness as a human being living the role of a lifetime. I've learned, sometimes the hard way is not to resist the challenges but to be open to them, welcome them and even sometimes enjoy them.

Presently I am challenged with a new issue. As I watch my behavior, my thoughts and my actions, I can see how often I unknowingly commit self sabotage. I realize that this is a part of me that is truly strong.

Perhaps my challenge is to use that strength to aid transformation. I can sit and dream about the challenge or I can choose to face the self head on and allow the Love and Compassion of my Higher Self to reign. Oh how lovely it would be if I was able to live from that God place more often. This sounds like a goal...And so it is...

Beloved Children,

Throughout your life journey there is always an opportunity to be free and to reveal your greatness, yet you place restrictions on yourself that hold you in bondage.

Never doubt that you can climb the highest mountain, for that mountain is in your mind. It stands as a block to happiness, and the ascent becomes the challenge. Be aware that you must climb one step at a time, one breath at a time and one moment at a time until your mind is free of fear and guilt. Be humble and steadfast in your pursuit of truth, for only in this state of mind will your greatness be revealed.
