Surrender, Crucifixion, and Resurrection

Thoughts on Surrender, Crucifixion, and Resurrection

He Is Risen by Genevieve Gerard

As Easter comes around, I find that my meditations turn to thoughts on the resurrection. 

To consider the life of Jesus separate from the resurrection seems to miss the importance of what the final three acts of His story can teach.

That final step, resurrection, may seem so far above and beyond what you can ever accomplish in your own Spiritual life that you dismiss it as a life lesson.

When I look at the life of Jesus, I don’t think anything is accidental.  Every act, every miracle, every parable was His way of teaching.  He taught by doing and demonstrating through His own life what it meant to be both the Son of God and the Son of Man.

What Jesus Taught by Example

This teaching by example, through the activities and events of His own life, are never more significant than in understanding the last three acts of His life.  The fact that these acts were so amazing and so far beyond what the average human being feels they could do I believe has resulted in His followers sometimes dismissing the deeper message that is embedded within them.

Jesus came into human existence to demonstrate what a human being can be and can do.  Not only does He demonstrate His human nature, but He also demonstrated His Divine nature.  That was the message, not an accident.

Jesus, as the Son of God and the Son of Man, was demonstrating the full potential of what it means to be a dual being, a blending of being both fully human and fully Divine.  It is this mystery that I believe empowers the deepest meaning of these last three steps in His life adventure, Surrender, Crucifixion, and Resurrection.

It is easy to dismiss the life of Jesus as a story of a God and miss that is also a story of a Man.  It is easy to see the sacrifice of the crucifixion and forget the pain of the surrender in the Garden of Gethsemane.

It may also be easy to focus on the life of Jesus and think that because he was also Divine His example and demonstration does not relate to your life and isn’t an example you are being called to follow.

That would be a mistake, for Jesus told His followers, “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father.” John 14:12-14 (New Revised Standard Bible Version.)

Jesus was not holding Himself out as an example of a miracle worker who was beyond human ability.  He was telling His followers, His disciples, what they can do and can be.  He was telling you what your ultimate purpose is as a material human being who is also endowed by the Father (Creator) with the spark of Divine Light that is the gift to every human being to become the dual being of a Man-God.

If you ignore the significance and the suffering of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane you may have missed the crux of the story.  It is reported that “Jesus wept.” John 11:35. Jesus was more than a Divine being playing out a drama on the stage of life.  He was a living, breathing, real human being who decided to sacrifice himself out of Love for Humanity.

Everything that happened in the next three days, the crucifixion and the resurrection were the result of that human choice, made in prayer and distress as He said, “Not my Will but Thine be done.”

The man Jesus, chose to surrender His will to Divine Will.  Jesus chose to sacrifice His human life as an act of Love.
                     – Genevieve Gerard

That choice and that sacrifice allowed a miracle to happen.  That miracle was mystical and the fulfillment of Divine purpose, as in that moment of total obedience and willing sacrifice the energy of Divine Love was able to be anchored on Earth.  That was such a powerful and profound shift in energy that the veil in the temple was rent.  Then the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.  And when Jesus had cried out with a loud voice, He said, ‘Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit.’  Having said this, He breathed His last. (Luke 23:45–46)

The mystery is that is what marked the moment that humanity began to have true Divine Love available.

It is significant to note that Jesus committed His Spirit to the Father as his material body breathed His last.  It is noteworthy that the resurrection happened three days later, on Easter morning. Jesus, in the final act of His surrender, was totally aligned with the Father (Creator) and totally aligned with bringing the force of Divine Love to earth.  This was His act of Love and His act of service for all of humanity.

In that final act, not only was Love anchored on earth, but the human part of man that was Jesus completed His union with the Christ which had been over-lighting and guiding His message and His activities throughout His teaching and preaching.  It was this connection of the man Jesus, with the Divine aspect of the Christ, that explains the dual life of Jesus, how He could be both God and man.

The fusing of the personality of Jesus, (the man) with the energy of the Christ (the Divine) is the most profound part of the story of the life of Jesus.  It provides the best example of what you are directed to do as a human being, to bring through your Soul into your personal life, thoughts, words, and deeds through the Divine energy of the Christ.

It is this fulfillment of the example of the life of Jesus that creates the fulfillment of His words of “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father.” John 14:12-14 (New Revised Standard Bible Version)

Jesus going to the Father was more than hyperbole.  It was a mystical act of joining His human nature with His Divine nature.  And the Christ is the One who serves humanity as the conduit from human existence to the Father (Divine Creator essence).

When Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6 (Contemporary English Bible Version) He was speaking not a truth of separative requirement that limits people to Christian belief, but rather an energetic truth that the path to the Father is so vast and charged that the Christ serves as an energetic portal for reaching that exalted transcendent energy.

By Jesus embodying the Christ, He demonstrated how you as a human being and a Soul could go to the Father.  Going to the Father is what empowered the life of Jesus.  It is what gave Him the ability to perform miracles, especially those miracles that seem to defy the laws of matter and the laws of nature as we understand them to be.

This aspect of going to the Father is also what makes resurrection, not simply the last act in the drama of Jesus’s life but the confirmation that resurrection is the final example that Jesus demonstrated as what you and I are instructed to do eventually.

Each Easter, as we celebrate the joy of resurrection with the words shouted across the world “He is Risen, He is Risen Indeed” are offered as the comfort and reassurance of our eternal life through the miracle of resurrection.

Resurrection is a miracle and a mystery, but it is also a promise for the Son of Man who like Jesus is the Son of God.

Ponder on this and celebrate this Easter season in remembrance of the one who sacrificed His life to show us the way.

 

Namaste,

Genevieve

Letting Angels Teach Us the Meaning of Love

Letting Angels Teach Us the Meaning of Love

Teach Us Love by Genevieve Gerard

This article is part of our on-going series on Angels.

We are told in the stories of Creation that God created the Heavens and the Earth.

That may be a statement that has sometimes given you pause, or, it may be something that never crosses your mind; or something you have never considered.

The mystery of Angels is that they are beings of Spirit and Light while we, as humans, are beings of Spirit and Matter.

Tradition tells us that Angels are the messengers of God.  With the evolution of science in human consciousness, the role of Angels diminished.  Humanity has in the recent past become more limited by its collective insistence that only what is experienced through the five senses is real.

An amazing aspect of consciousness is that it is always totally subjective.  Without a concept in your mind, you cannot perceive.  This is a part of life’s mystery.  This is why determining what is real, and differentiating what is unreal is such a significant part of the spiritual journey.

There is a common folk saying that “seeing is believing.”  Yet, we cannot see the energy of radio waves but we now know they are there. Ultimately, I believe it is also true that “believing is seeing.” Ponder on this.

Understanding the laws of matter and relying on your five senses is one way you may see the world, but, it is not the only way.  Sensation and perception can open you to what is known as the sixth sense.  Just acknowledging the possibility that there is more to reality than what you might experience with your limited five senses can shift your awareness. The truth is “we don’t know what we don’t know.”

Here is a secret; opening your awareness is necessary if you want to communicate and learn from Angels.

Greater Awareness Is Coming

Communicating with Angels is something that has changed in these emerging times.  It is important to understand that consciousness is a part of livingness in every form in which life is expressed.  Consciousness is an ongoing process of both evolution and involution as an expression of life itself.

At this time in human evolution, consciousness is transforming to a greater awareness of reality.  A new consciousness is emerging that empowers the human experience to encompass more than just dense matterThe world of the Soul and the awareness of Spirit is in greater awareness.  The substance of your Soul is Spirit and LightConnecting with your Soul Light opens you to the presence and communion with the Angelic Kingdom.

The separation that has long existed between these two realms, Spirit and Matter, Human and Angelic have been thinning.  This phenomenon is sometimes referred to as “the thinning of the veil.” The tasks of the evolution of consciousness are becoming more permeable and interactive than in previous times.

This change seems to be a part of the creation of a “new heaven and a new earth” that is part of the prophecy of the emerging consciousness.  This foretold creation impacts the relationship between Angels and humanity that is compatible with the evolution in consciousness of both realms.

Messenger of God

In ancient stories of Angels appearing to humanity, the Angels were portrayed as messengers.  Angels, being more recognizable and compatible to human life arrived and were visible to communicate important messages.  The stories related often speak to the fear that humans had of Angelic Presence since the very first thing the Angels would say is “be not afraid.”

Fear is a common response of the human experience when presented with what is unfamiliar and unknown.

Special Angels, often Archangels, were chosen for these missions.  And, although these stories are rare and noteworthy, they are sufficiently common for humanity to understand that Angels are real and a part of the relationship between humanity and the Divine.

The role of a Guardian Angel is an example of how the angelic kingdom is aware of the challenges of the human experience.  A special relationship exists between an individual and their Guardian Angel.  That relationship is forged between your Soul and the Angel that takes on the charge of being your Guardian Angel in your life.

Angels are spirits, flames of fire; they are higher than man, they have wider connections.
                        – Matthew Simpson

What is significant to understand and honor in these times of the thinning of the veil between heaven and earth is that both humanity and the Angels are constantly expanding their consciousness and awareness.  Angels and humanity, although on different pathways of evolving consciousness have a relationship.  This relationship is about different ways of experiencing the divine.

What We Can Learn From Angels

What is amazing is that these two very different manifestations of life and consciousness are learning similar lessons.  Learning these lessons in a body composed of matter is very different from learning these lessons as a being of Spirit and Light.

Humanity, as it evolves and ascends its consciousness to the ever greater awareness of Light, Love, and Spirit, have much they can learn from Angels.  Now, with the thinning of the veil between Heaven and Earth greater communication is possible.  The Angels remain messengers, as they have always been, but their ability to communicate, teach us and guide us is expanding.

Teaching Us The Meaning of Love

At this time, I believe mostly what they are teaching humanity is about Love.  Learning to Love, and ultimately infusing and transforming matter with Love in an epic transformation.  This lesson is integral to humanity evolving (beyond its animal nature) and is essential for planet earth to become a sacred planet.

Humanity is learning to Love, and Love infusing matter is the mystery of redemption that expands into Cosmic levels of purpose.
                           – Genevieve Gerard

Angels are engaged in this Divine purpose to help and support humanity in accomplishing this transition.  The result of the separation of the world of matter from the Angelic realm thinning is an increased opportunity for communion and communication.  The presence of Angels is moving more and more into human awareness.  Perception is expanding beyond the five senses.

Meditation, prayer, and humanities reach for the Angels and the longing for the true meaning of love are revealing more and more.  The Angelic communication to human consciousness is mostly telepathic and is most often perceived as a whisper of the still quiet voice that is also the tool of your Soul (Higher Self) guiding you.

The Angels are committed to the fulfillment of what is aligned with Divine Will for you in your life.  Indeed, since Angels do not have free will like humans have, they can do no other.

What We Can Teach The Angels

As the Angels are emerging more and more to help humanity learn about Love, they are being exposed to what free will means.  I can only imagine that they are learning from humanity as they help humanity as part of their own angelic involutionary path back to mankind.

Certainly, the increased exposure to human emotion, particularly the pain of unfulfilled desire is a learning experience.  Human life, confined in matter and emotionally subject to the astral plane requires a major shift in consciousness.  In order for the Angels to support humanity in this great lesson of Love, they must become more aware of the trials and tribulations of the human life experience.

This is a great sacrifice the Angels are making.  When they reveal themselves to you in these emerging times I encourage you to be thankful for the sacrifice of service that they are offering to you.  Even to embody matter sufficiently for you to see them, hear them and sense them is different from their essence of Spirit and Light. Have compassion and gratitude and do not abuse their service to humanity.

As this process of revelation increases, the only way humanity can repay their sacrifice is by opening to the highest levels of Love and merging your Love with theirs. When they see life on earth being transformed by Love, and how their gift brings new awareness and consciousness to humanity their joy will expand.  Angels will demonstrate a new integrated way of being that is infused with Love and aligned with Divine Will. I encourage you to honor them with love as the blessing that they are to humanity and to your life and growth.

Namaste,

   Genevieve

What Would Jesus Do Today?

Ask yourself,
what would Jesus do today?

Ask yourself by Genevieve Gerard

This is a question to ask yourself if you consider yourself a Christian.

When I started this article, I was directed to address it to the American Evangelical Church, because of the moral and political crisis that is facing that group in this moment of history.

The more I meditated and prayed on this time in the world; I realized that the problems being faced by the world today are being experienced around the world, in every geopolitical environment because they are the spiritual challenge facing humanity right now.

It Is A Time Of Crisis

Spiritual Cross Words by Genevieve Gerard

Across the planet, throughout the Country, throughout the church, people are being called to make decisions about what is wrong, and what is right, what is not moral and what is moral.

It is a time of crisis, indeed in the United States of America, yet, when I take a more realistic and global look at this moment in the evolution of human life and consciousness, the decisions and choices are being played out on a world stage and apply to all nations.

When I was first directed in my meditation to write this message, I must admit I resisted it.  I suggested the spiritual insights and guidance would reach the evangelical community better through ministers who focus on serving this group.  They are well known and would undoubtedly be listened to better than I, and although a Christian I am not of the evangelical tribe.

As I argued and resisted with myself internally, I was then reminded that I often pray “here I am Lord, use me.”  I was being asked to honor my word.  The Lord was asking to use me.  Would I turn my back in disobedience, or was I a woman of my word?

So, prayerfully and meditatively I opened my mind, my heart, and my Soul to listen to the message I was being called to share.  My argument that I was not worthy was countered by the reminder that those called to deliver a message from God often felt unworthy.  My Biblical knowledge flashed through a myriad of stories of the dire and disastrous consequences of those called to deliver a message from God, and the results when they tried to flee or disobey God’s call.

Chastised and committed to obedience in my meditation, I picked up my proverbial pen (although, it is a computer) re-entered a prayerful and receptive meditative state and began to record the thoughts and impressions being sent through me to this community.

What Would Jesus Do?

I was reminded that among Evangelical Christians many strive to live their faith by asking themselves the question, “What would Jesus do?”  This was the question I was guided to ask in this letter.

It is abundantly clear that asking that question is an excellent way to consider the many life choices we are called upon to make.

As I continued to ponder and consider the direction, I realized that the value and import of this question were broader than just one country or only one church.

However, the need for this article to be sent to and directed to Evangelical Christians is clear.

If you are an Evangelical Christian, or if you know Evangelical Christians I ask your help in sending this article to that group, for that was my initial instruction and purpose for writing this article.

As I continued to pray and meditate on this question “What would Jesus Do?” my thoughts expanded.  In the history of humanity, the choices Jesus made were so powerful and profound that over two thousand years later we are in awe of what he taught and demonstrated in His life and more amazingly in His death and sacrifice.

To make your life and moral choices by the guidance of the question “What would Jesus Do” can be a tough moral standard to follow.  His path was not an easy path, and choosing what is right over what is wrong may never be the easy way.

Human nature and being human is vulnerable to pride.  Self-righteousness and assurance of moral superiority are sins we must all consider when we make a moral choice.

To take a stand for right action in life, especially if you consider “what Jesus would do” requires that you answer how Love is served, how harmlessness and compassion are demonstrated.

With that in mind, I am reminded of the parable Jesus told as guidance for following Him.

The parable in Matthew 25:40 Jesus said:

The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ (New International Bible Version)

Now I believe that of all the lessons that Jesus taught and all of the ways he guided those who say they follow Him, there is no better guide for our moral decision to determine what you should do, than those words.  So, I ask you to consider the moral and political choices of today’s world and challenges by examining the question of “what would Jesus do?”

What would Jesus do about . . . immigration?  Would he close the borders to refugees?  Would he deport the DACA young people and deprive them the opportunity to live their lives and fulfill their Soul purpose because they are of a different culture?

Would Jesus deprive children of Health Care because their parents are poor?  Would he deprive the disabled of Medicare?  Would He defund Health insurance supplements for working families in need?

What would Jesus do about the Homeless, especially Homeless and Disabled Veterans?

Would Jesus eliminate funding for breakfast for school-age children or meals for seniors?

Would he punish addiction by profitable prisons, or might he support treatment and rehabilitation?

“What would Jesus do?” is a question I invite all of you to consider in light of the many issues and challenges coming before the American people and Evangelical Christians in these troubling times.

There is in our world and in our society a battle for the Soul of America.  If America is to be a Christian nation as I believe the Evangelical Christian Church desires, then we must behave in a way that is congruent with the teachings of Matthew 25:40, or risk being rejected by the King as the parable teaches.

Asking the question “What would Jesus do today?” is a call of conscience to not only the Evangelical Church but to the Catholic Church and every denomination that identifies as Christian.

Many countries have made these decisions, yet I write especially to the United States of America today because she is in a battle for the Soul of American over the forces of greed.

Make A Choice & Take A Stand

If you want America to be a Christian Nation, then you must in your political life take a stand.

The forces of greed and selfishness are strong.  Asking yourself “what would Jesus do?” will help you consider what you can do to solve many of these social and societal issues.  What are you funding to support and help in the world?  Does it reflect what Jesus would do, or does it support the forces of selfishness and greed?

These are the questions every citizen who identifies themselves as a Christian are being called to consider.  It is not easy to follow Christ.  Jesus was an example that we all fall short of achieving.  As I pen these words, I remember that in every Christian variation is the creed and affirmation that Christ will come again.

Jesus Knocking

The promise, the hope and the belief of the reappearance of the Christ cross all the divisions in the Christian faith.  We are told of His coming, “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” Matthew 24:36.

We, as Christians are charged to live every day prepared for His coming.  Certainly, looking at the choices and changes in the world today, the world may well be preparing for that moment.  Are you?

Are the causes you are supporting today compatible with you being more than a Sunday morning Christian? Are you living your life and making your political decisions based on the guidance of the question, “What would Jesus Do?”

Are you making the choices as if your Lord himself were one of the disenfranchised, needy and poor?  Do you see Jesus in the face of every person?  Are you following His commandment, indeed His only commandment to Love, but to your neighbor as yourself?

These are the questions I was guided to place before you as a member of the Christian movement.  This is the message I was directed to offer to you from my morning prayers and meditations.

There are significant decisions before you in our modern world, in our country, America and indeed in every country across the planet.

We need to decide who and what defines us as a culture, as a society.  I invite you and encourage you to take direction and guidance of your faith as you ask yourself and then answer, “What would Jesus Do Today?”

The Christ in me greets the Christ in you with the ancient greeting “The Peace of the Lord be with you.” 
                           – Genevieve Gerard

Before I close this article and my own prayerful meditations I am guided to offer you a prayer to support you in your desire to follow the teachings of Jesus.  This is a prayer to support you as you strive to walk your talk, to demonstrate to the world what Jesus would do.

 

Lord, I Want To Be Like Jesus Prayer

 

Let Us Pray

Beloved Lord,

I humbly ask that you come to me and guide me in the choices I make today.  Lord, I want to be like Jesus in my heart and in my life.

I open my heart to the power of the Holy Spirit that I may find the strength to Love my neighbor as myself.

As I invite the Love of the Christ into my heart compassion fills me.  In the face of every stranger let me see the face of Jesus.  Let every act of kindness be of service to you my beloved Lord.  So, you instructed us, and so I strive to be more like you today.

I know I may fall short of being able to accomplish this, so I surrender to the Love of the Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit to fill me and infuse me so that I may be an active demonstration of what Jesus would do.

As I offer myself to this work and service, I ask that not my will but thine be done, through me.

Help me to consider harmlessness as I consider the plight of others.  Please guide my thoughts and words.  Grant me the strength to stand up for what my heart and Love tell me are right action in this world of sorrow and need.

Lord empower me to see your face in everyone I see that I may express my gratitude to you for your sacrifice by my own service to those you called “the least of these my brethren.”

Help me remember that my service to the hungry and sick, the refugees and prisoners, the addicts and alcoholics is my service to You.

Let me be a living example of Your life, Your Love and Your Grace.  Let me be a source of good in the world.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray.

Amen

 

The Blessing of Love on all that you do!

Relieve and Release Your Anxiety

Relieve and Release Your Anxiety

Release Your Anxiety with Genevieve Gerard

Anxiety in life is a problem.

It’s estimated that approximately 10 percent of teenagers and 40 percent of adults suffer from anxiety of some kind in the United States.

Globally, 1 in 13 suffers from anxiety

Surprisingly women are twice as likely to be affected as men according to the Anxiety and Depression Association

According to the Anxiety Centre,

Those who have an anxiety may show these conditions:

  • Regularly feel overwhelmed
  • Feel nervous in many social situations
  • Are more often sick
  • Regularly feel unsettled
  • Often feel out of control of their health and life
  • Experience higher levels of overall stress
  • Often struggle with low self-esteem
  • Read more anxiety conditions…
  • Have difficulty managing pressure
  • Have higher expectations of themselves and others
  • Feel returned love is performance-based
  • Often have unhealthy boundaries
  • Are often workaholics
  • Often have unhealthy relationships
  • Visit the doctor more often
  • Tax the medical system (with frequent trips to their doctor or emergency rooms)
  • Are more likely to take medications
  • Are more likely to have other health problems
  • Are overall more unhappy
  • Experience erratic emotional behaviors
  • Feel disconnected or detached from reality and life
  • Often feel they are just on the edge of losing control
  • Often aren’t reliable (because their symptoms may prevent them from following through)
  • Become inward focused and dwell on their health condition and personal problems
  • May jump from relationship to relationship in search of perfection
  • May jump from job to job because of higher levels of stress
  • Live a restricted lifestyle (within their self-imposed “safe zones”)
  • Feel life is passing them by
  • Question their faith and God’s presence in their lives
  • Feel at a distance from God
  • Often quick to get angry

Only 10 percent with anxiety receive effective help

 

Unfortunately, they also state that only 10% of those suffering from anxiety receive effective help.

 

I believe that the issue on which you may have focused anxiety is actually focused on an illusion around which you have woven sufficient energy through your fears that it can feel very real.

 

 

It is important to realize that feeling something is real does not make it realIt is important to recognize this when you want to conquer your anxiety.

If you sit quietly and examine your thoughts and feelings that are fueling your anxiety, you will most likely realize that it is a lot of projections that begin by imagining “what if ____ happens?”

That awareness begins to unravel the substance of the anxiety to allow you to be free from it when you realize that whatever you are imagining has not happened, and may not likely happen.

You must remember that your fears and your anxiety are a projection of your mind, mixed in with your imagination, not only about what “could happen” but often what you imagine others could be thinking or feeling.

None of your imaginings are real or true.

Realizing that your anxiety and the thoughts and emotions that are creating and fueling your anxiety are neither real or the truth, is a first step in relieving yourself from the tyranny of anxiety with which you are torturing yourself.

It might sound strange but a way to relieve your anxiety is to understand the principles of how the Universe works.

Unfortunately, when you suffer from anxiety, you are using a Universal Law that “Energy Follows Thought.” That principle, that Law, is a gift and when rightly used can empower you to stand as a co-creator with the Creator and manifest the life of your dreams.

The Universal Law that energy follows thought becomes distorted and destructive when you let your fears use this dynamic creative energy to create a web and maze that begins to take on the substance of matter to lock you into your thoughts and mind.

By using the creative power of your imagination, you can, unfortunately, feed your fears and fundamental distrust of life until your anxiety is so painful and intense that it can control your life.  However, you can use the same principle to free yourself from your anxiety.

The Law that energy follows thought is real manifests from an aspect of the Law of Attraction.  However, when you are trapped in the emotional experience of anxiety, you have turned that power against yourself.

Anxiety is the result of creating in your emotional body and mind, all of the horrors and nightmares you can imagine, and being an intelligent and creative being, you can imagine a lot.

The Keys To Free Yourself From Anxiety

The question with which you are faced with if you suffer from anxiety is how to free yourself from that trap?  The most powerful tool that you can wield when experiencing anxiety is the TRUTH.

Discriminating between what is real vs. what is created by fear, worry and anxiety is the key to freeing you from being trapped by the tyranny of your emotions and your mind.

Asking yourself for a reality check is a dynamic tool for relieving anxiety.  Is this real?  Did it happen? Or, am I just projecting and imagining what could happen?

The power of your thought is to create, however; you can have control over your thoughts.

Even though the creative power of your mind can be incredible, the illusion can feel so real that you can feel powerless to release it.  I believe because your anxiety is created by emotional and astral energy, it cannot manifest in the world of matter.

The key words in this thought are that it “feels real.”  Just because something feels real does not make it real.  So one of the steps in relieving anxiety is to begin to be aware that the feeling is an illusion.  That does not mean that doesn’t seem real, but appearing real and being real is different.

The good news for you, if you suffer from anxiety, is that you have proved that you have a compelling mental body.  When you learn to use that force for you rather than against yourself you can use it activate your power to manifest your dreams and desires.

To release yourself from the tangled web of emotions and fears that have kept you trapped inside the web of anxiety you have woven, you need to understand how to use your creative energy.

Once you have allowed your fears to form and to become so much substance it produces anxiety, it is critical to shift and engage in the process of transmutation, transformation and ultimately transcendence.

That power is yours.  That ability is uniquely yours.

The truth is that there is no actual stress or anxiety in the world; it’s your thoughts that create these false beliefs. You can’t package stress, touch it, or see it. There are only people engaged in stressful thinking.
                          – Wayne Dyer

You can relieve and release your feelings of anxiety by applying a test of truth to them.

Doing that works with the laws of energy that respect the fact that whereas you cannot destroy energy, you can change its form.

When you change its form, you can relieve your anxiety and release your fears.  Once you have done this, you can use the creative talent that you honed to perfection in creating anxiety to create the life you desire.

You can use the same Universal Law and power that you turned against yourself to gain mastery of your life.

Relieving anxiety and transmuting, transforming and transcending the emotion of fear that underlies and is interwoven within it requires a conscious choice.

To help you with that choice I have created a short simple visualization exercise to start to relieve and release your anxiety.

Relieve and Release Your Anxiety Visualization

   Click play icon below to listen to me reading this visualization to you (under 2 minutes)..

Sit quietly and begin to breathe deeply.

Fill your lungs from the bottom up, first relaxing your stomach muscles.  As you take more and more air into your lungs, let your chest expand and fill.

Then let the air expand into the upper part of your lungs even raising your shoulders a bit topping off your breath.

Imagine a flock of white birds before you.  These are healing birds, here to take your anxiety away.

As you breathe out give your breath to this healing flock of birds.  Let them absorb your anxieties and fears until you have no more air in your lungs to offer them.

Now, imagine, visualize, see them flying away.  They are flying higher and higher, further and further away from you until they are out of sight, and out of mind.

Now let your breath return to normal.  You may be aware of how much more peaceful and calm you feel, right now.

You can do this little exercise whenever you need to release your anxiety.

Tools to Release Your Fears and Anxieties

There is, in the teachings of the Ageless Wisdom a meditation technique that works to calm strong emotions and transmute fears and doubts.

It is a technique that I used in my own spiritual life hundreds of times a day to gain mastery over my fears and anxieties.

I Am Feeling Free Meditation by Genevieve Gerard

It is such a powerful and life-transforming technique that I created two guided meditations to teach it. 1.) A shorter and simpler version called “I Am Feeling Free” and 2.) A longer and more detailed version called “Feeling Free.”

These meditations, once you learn how to move the energy with intention, can be done in less than a minute.

They can also be done as you move through your daily life to release your fears and anxieties as soon as you become aware that you are becoming trapped by them.  What is great is that no one else can see you or know you are using them.  It puts you in control of your feelings.

You move the energy with the power of your mind, your intention, your will, your breath and the engagement of your Higher Self.

You are, with these brief meditations able to exercise your control in your life, over your mind and emotions.  It is your power to use.

Becoming free of your anxiety, freeing your life from the tyranny of fear will change your life.

Unweaving the web of anxiety that you have built and created takes using these tools that have been handed down by those who guided humanity on the path of enlightened awareness for eons.

These meditative tools are now available to help you master your fears and anxieties so you can be and become all that you are meant to be, that you can live the life of your dreams and fulfill your Soul’s purpose in this life.

Know that meditation can be the portal to your Soul (your Higher Self).  You can use the power of your Soul to free you from your anxiety and fears and to empower you to use your mind as a force for good in your life and good in the world.

Isn’t today the day you would like to begin the process of unraveling the illusions and fears that have kept you trapped within your anxieties?  There is no better time than Right NOW to Take Control of your life.

Your intention to transform your life and heal your life is an excellent place to start.

Your fears do not serve or help you.  And, indeed, your anxieties do not serve you or empower you.

It is your choice to make, but it is both possible and advantageous for you to choose mastery over this life challenge.

Today is the day, and now is the moment that you can choose to live your life freeing yourself, being and becoming your whole self.

With the right help and healing, those who have experienced an anxiety condition can:

 

 

  • Regain control of their health and life
  • Live a balanced, happy, and fulfilling life
  • Have happier and more fulfilling relationships
  • Become the individual they always thought they could be
  • Reconnect with life in a more rewarding and satisfying way
  • Live an unrestricted lifestyle ready to tackle any challenge
  • Read more benefits of overcoming anxiety…
  • Express themselves like never before
  • Experience a more stable work environment
  • Freedom from medication and/or drug use
  • Reconnect with their faith and feel God’s presence
  • Have a closer relationship with God
  • Live a more accepting life, appreciating uniqueness and imperfection

These are just a few of the many benefits healing and a return to renewed health can bring.

Now is the moment to call upon the strength of your Higher Self to empower your personality.  It is your life and your choice.  I recommend freedom.  I recommend truth over fear and illusion.  I recommend taking control and finally feeling free of anxiety.

 

Namaste,

The Power You Unleash When You Dream

The Power You Unleash When You Dream

Unleash Your Dreams by Genevieve Gerard

As the calendar of time shifts from one year to the next the magic of creation is released into the world.

It is a magic you can use to empower your life.

It is by daring to dream that you unleash this magic.

It is by daring to dream that you can explore new possibilities and transform your life.

Your life has a purpose.  There is a reason for your life, a reason held deep within the mystery of time itself.

Every experience you have had in your life, positive and negative has brought you to this moment in the annals of time.  Every success you have had or mistake from which you have learned prepared you for NOW.

When you pause and think about where you are in this moment in your life, something special happens.  Your understanding can be freed as you realize that no matter what mistakes you may have made in life, they are all in the past.  And in some miraculous way, they have prepared you for exactly what is being created to come into manifestation right now.

As the days of time unfold from last year to this new year it is time to consider the life you have dreamed of.  Your dreams, your desires are the treasure map of your life’s adventure.  This is especially true, and especially powerful when you take this time as an opportunity to align your life with your Soul purpose.

Your Soul is the part of your spiritual anatomy that has vast power.  And, it is your Soul that engages you in your co-creator role with God.  Being a spark of Divine Light, both grants you certain privileges and calls you to certain responsibilities in your life.

Fuel Your Dreams

Even your Angels, especially your Guardian Angel are aligned with your Soul Purpose, your life purpose.

Amazingly your dreams provide the revelation of guidance that is unlocked and unleashed when you dare to dream.  So, take some time during this transition from one year to the next to consider what you want, what you need and let your creative mind fuel your dreams through your imagination.

Dreaming is the perfect tool to ignite your creativity.

Dreaming is a creative exercise when aligned with your Soul and aligned with Divine Will in your co-creator role as a “child of God.”
                     -Genevieve Gerard

Dreaming activates the universal laws of creation.  It can be powerful beyond your understanding.

Empower Your Life With Your Dreams

As I write these words to you, I am aware that in order for you to empower your life with your dreams there may be some things you need to address to unlock the full potential of using your dreams to create your life.

You may have been criticized in your life for being a “dreamer.”  If so, I ask you to firmly, with clear intention put that criticism in your past.

I invite you to step into the creative role of being a dreamer, recognizing that your dreams can be the blueprint for creating your future.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
                      – Eleanor Roosevelt

Active Dreaming

I invite you to engage in an exercise and technique I call Active Dreaming.

I ask you to practice this technique of active dreaming for 5 minutes a day, for the next 21 days.  Before you engage in your practice of Active Dreaming I ask that you prepare yourself with these four simple steps:

  1. Go to a place you will not be disturbed for 5 minutes.
  2. Turn off any background noise that you can so your distractions are minimal.
  3. Place your spiritual journal with a writing implement in easy reach.
  4. As you begin your Active Dreaming Exercise get comfortable, sitting in a chair or couch with your spine aligned, not lying down, with your feet on the floor.

 

Active Dreaming Exercise

 

  1. Take a very deep breath and as you draw in the breath draw in vitality and creative life energy. And as you exhale release any stress you may have been holding in your body.
  2.  

  3. Then taking in another very deep and relaxing breath let your body surrender to the support of your chair, realizing you are being supported by the chair, which is supported by the floor, which is supported by the earth.

     

    This support is available to you through the Law of Gravity and is part of the support you receive as a child of God.  It is one of many natural laws that are available to help you manifest your dreams.

  4.  

  5. For the next few moments, while you actively dream notice that each breath that you take, deep or shallow teaches you and confirms for you that life is providing exactly the amount of air that you need, in exactly the proportion in which you need it for energy and vitality.

     

    Trust that what you need is available for you to create and manifest your life’s purpose, your Soul purpose. Ponder on this.

  6.  

  7. Now, as you pause and reflect, consider your life. Consider your dreams and desires.  Let your mind and your imagination run free for at least five minutes. 

     

    What would change in your life if you were living the life of your dreams? 

     

    How would that feel? 

     

    Let your mind fill in as many details as you can while you engage in this active dreaming exercise.  There are no limits to what is possible in your dream. 

     

    Let your mind be free.  Examine and explore ideas you have never considered before.  Suspend all your judgments. 

     

    This is a time for creative exploration.  There are no limitations with creative exploration, there are only new possibilities and opportunities.

  8.  

  9. Then, release your dreams with no attachment to them. Take another deep and relaxing breath and release with the exhale any fears that may have arisen during your active dreaming time.
  10.  

  11. Now, take another few moments to record in your spiritual journal any ideas you may have had that you do not wish to forget.
  12.  

  13. Before you return to your normal day and normal activities consciously align your will with Divine Will and call upon you Angels to assist you in manifesting your dreams as long as they are in alignment with Divine Will and for the highest good of all.

 

You may wish to expand the time allocated to 10 or 15 minutes a day to allow adequate time for your spiritual journal entry.

Then go about your day freely.

Keep up this Active Dreaming exercise as a part of your life for the next 21 days.  You may notice how you are able to see new possibilities and new opportunities more often.  You may notice you have more hope in your heart.  You might observe you have less negative self-talk or are naturally releasing some of your limiting beliefs.

 

Namaste,

   Genevieve

The Longing to Be Loved

The Longing to Be Loved

Longing To Love by Genevieve Gerard

This article is part of my ongoing Series on Love.

As we enter the new year I have been thinking about the need for Love.

Longing for Love seems to be a common denominator of the human experience.

Have you ever wondered why love is so important?  Have you ever thought life would be a whole lot easier if you had never loved?  Have you ever wished that you did not have this deep need bursting inside of you to give love and the even more troublesome need to receive love?

Love seems to be an inconvenient essential in life.  Ironically, love is both the source of life’s greatest joys and life’s most profound sorrows.

Somehow, mystically and almost magically, learning to love is woven into the very fabric of life.  Both the urge to love and the heart-wrenching need to be loved can be inescapable.

Since love seems to be so essential in life, you might think it should not be the source of so much confusion and pain.  Since the need to love another and the need to be loved is so prevalent, you might think love would be easy to give, and easy to receive.  After all, love is something we all need and all long to give.

The Life Lesson of LOVE

Why, I have often asked myself as a counselor and life coach, is it so hard for people to learn how to love, and why is it so hard for people to let themselves receive love?  As I ponder this question, I am aware that I have come to believe that learning about love is one of the essential lessons of life.

As I say these words, I must clarify that I mean that love is much more than a life lesson, I mean that it is THE life lesson.  I believe it is the lesson life was created to learn.

The need for love lies at the very foundation of human existence.
                      – Dalai Lama

Our world, our bodies, our life, is the simultaneous merging of what is material and temporal with what is eternal and spiritual; Love is what brings these two very diverse worlds together.  Part of the life lesson of love is learning what and how to love.  Confusing these issues is easy.

You must remember to love people and use things, rather than to love things and use people.
               –  Archbishop, Futon Sheen

The more I ponder and consider the meaning of life and my own life’s purpose I am aware that learning to love is the lesson we all are exploring in our life adventure.  The way we learn to love may be unique to each individual, but the theme expressed throughout a myriad of manifestations is consistent.

The future success of humanity is dependent upon love winning, we all, you and me, must learn to love.  Love is the underpinning for guiding and directing Right Human RelationshipsLove is more than the passionate emotions of longing and attachment that are often ascribed to it.

Love Can Be the Answer to All Life’s Questions

Love ironically can serve as the guide by which you can answer most if not all of life’s questions.  Since learning the lessons of Love seem to be the motivation behind life’s varied experiences I would like to suggest a little question I often asked myself when facing a decision.  That question is:

How is Love best served in this situation?

It is not a simple answer.  To give in and give someone what they want may not serve Love.  This is a lesson that any family member of someone plagued by an addiction of any kind has needed to learn.

Love is not best served when you harm yourself in the name of Love.  That is not Love.  That is not what love requires of you.  And, most importantly, that is not how you love unconditionally.

Misconceptions About Love

The Media and a multitude of “chick flicks” and romance novels propagate a lot of misinformation about Love.  What may make a good drama because it accurately reflects the pain and pathos of emotions is not the guide for how love is best served in life.

These illusions and glamours about love lead to lots of heart-brake and heart-ache as you strive to make Love into what it is not to meet these fantasy images.  That leads to a profound misunderstanding about the nature of love.  That misconception is that “Love Hurts.”

It is not Love that hurts.  It is unmet and unfulfilled expectations that hurt.  Again, I state, it is not Love that hurts.  It is actually the failure to Love that hurts.

To learn what Love is is essential.  However, it is of as much importance to learn what is Not Love.

This is particularly difficult when the person creating harm to you or pain in your life tells you that they love you.  It is important to understand what is not love, in order to free yourself from those who use the need to love and be loved as the basis for manipulating and harming you.  This false identification of love is sadly the most significant abuse of the innate desire to love and be loved.  It has left a string of broken hearts and broken lives across the planet.

Loving Yourself

Freeing Love from the illusions and misunderstandings that are often sold in the world as love requires understanding how to Love Yourself.

When you answer the question “How is Love Best Served?” loving yourself must also be considered.

Loving Yourself is an important life decision and an essential spiritual decision.  The result of the illusions and delusions about love that media’s misinformation campaign has created is that you are tempted and encouraged to accept abuse and pain in the name of love.  It is essential to discriminate and understand that criticism and abuse are not love.

Self-sacrifice is not noble.  Allowing yourself to be harmed is against what Love means. Part of Loving yourself is creating boundaries and honoring yourself.

Balancing what is right to give in a situation with the self-respect and honoring yourself is what loving demands.  It is the background against which learning to Love is played.

Sometimes giving someone what they want is not loving.  Sometimes is not even helpful when you consider the whole situation.  Woven into the answer to the question of “How is Loved Best Served?” is the awareness of the long-term implications of a situation, and the unintended consequences that can happen when you do not consider self-respect and harmlessness as part of the decision that is important.

This merging of the consideration of how Love is best served is stated eloquently by Shakespeare in Hamlet, Act 1 scene 78-82:

“This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man.”

Loving yourself, being true to yourself, taking care of yourself are all important parts of learning to love.  Not only learning to love yourself, but learning to love another.

The Longing to Be Loved & Give Love

The longing to be loved and the deep longing to give love are part of human nature.  Yet, the yearning to give love and express love is also a part of your Soul’s nature.  This makes Love both unique and important because it is in loving that your material and animal nature needs and desires can also express your Spiritual essence.

It is in this blending of your Soul (your Divine Spark) and your Personality (your body, emotions, and mind) that happens when you love another or are loved that a miracle happens.  That miracle is that something that is eternal is created in your temporal and material life.
                        – Genevieve Gerard

Love becomes the bridge in consciousness that opens you to the life of your Soul, whose nature is love and whose very essence is Love.

Love is what makes life worth living.  It is the core of personal joy and the essence of all meaningful relationships from friends to lovers.

Learning to Love weaves together in a fantastic life tapestry two essential lessons that make life work.  One is how to love yourself, and the other is how to love anotherIn those lessons, you learn to express your dual nature as a human being and your Spiritual nature as a spark of Divine Light. Ponder on this.

 

Namaste,

   Genevieve

The Blessing of Love on all that you do!

What Are You Grateful For

What Are You Grateful For?

Grateful by Genevieve Gerard

Take a minute and think about abundance and gratitude during the Thanksgiving Day holiday (in the U.S.A.)

It seems to be a good time to consider the importance of gratitude in life.

It is an excellent time to take a moment to consider how being grateful can impact and influence your life.

One thing that I am aware of as I pause to look at my life with an attitude of gratitude is that there is always something for which I am grateful.

It can be a very small or simple thing, for what is more important than that for which I am grateful. And it is what happens in my consciousness when I express my gratitude.

The amazing thing is that the very moment in which I identify something for which I am thankful my perspective changes, and I am invited to experience hope, love, and joy.

You might ask why do hope, love, and joy spring into my consciousness when I am thankful?  To understand that opens me to understanding one of the primary laws of the UniverseThe Law that energy follows thought.”

The Universal Law of Energy Follows Thought

That universal law is how you as a human being are an active force in co-creation with the Creator.  It is through this Universal Law that “energy follows thought” that you possess a power you can wield in the worldEach time you take the time to notice and appreciate what is good in the world and beautiful in your life, you participate in the work of creating more of what you enjoy in the world.

This concept that “energy follows thought” is the cornerstone of the Law of Abundance.  It is the mechanism through which you as a human being, endowed with the spark of Divine Light, are invited to be a co-creator with the Creator of Life.  In this statement is a profound truth that reveals deep magic. Ponder on this.

It is this understanding you can use to create the life of your dreams.  It is a power you can wield to fulfill your Soul’s purpose and manifest it in the world.

It is a powerful tool that requires clarity and consistency.  For that reason, it is often ignored or misunderstood.

What it is essential to understand the Law of Attraction is that it is a law.  It is always at work.  It does not discriminate between thoughts of what you want and thoughts of what you fear.  The energy is activated into creation by the thought.

If you wish to use the Law of Attraction to manifest what you dream and desire, you must learn to control your thoughts.  The endless chatter of your mind only creates confusion.

Whenever you send out a hodgepodge of fear, mixed in with half-formed ideas that switch to different half-formed ideas, the Universe does not know what to create for you.  It does not know what you want.

Only you can tell the Universe when you want to activate the Law of Attraction.  To do that you must learn to harness the power of your mind.

Un-disciplined mind chatter sends out confused requests to the Universe.  It is also usually so interwoven with your fears that it becomes like listening to the mindless chatter of a bunch of drunken monkeys as the Buddha described the contents of the mind, many years ago.

A Time For Gratitude

This day of Thanksgiving (in November in the US and October in Canada) is a time when you consistently and consciously focus on what you appreciate in order to activate terrific energy in your life.

Focusing on gratitude is a force to release Hope, Love, and Joy.
                         – Genevieve Gerard

As I mention above, I associate focusing on gratitude as a force to release Hope, Love, and Joy.

To take advantage of this special time to empower your life and support you in manifesting your Soul Purpose and fulfill your dreams, I offer you a little no-cost simple exercise anyone can do.  I suggest you give this activity at least 10 or 15 minutes.

If you keep a journal, I suggest you get your journal and use it for this exercise.  If you don’t have a journal, just get out some paper and a pen to record your thoughts and feelings.

Gratitude & Blessings Exercise

This exercise is to ignite the Law of Abundance and demonstrate how the dynamic principle that “energy follows thought” helps you manifest in the world.

While you are doing it, it is imperative that you maintain awareness of what you are thinking.  If you observe a negative thought, fear, or a limiting belief slipping in, stop immediately and reframe, edit and bring your thoughts back into alignment with the attitude of gratitude.

It does not matter how much time you have set aside to do this gratitude exercise, you need to stop and reframe any negative thoughts. Do not let a fearful or negative thought remain unedited.  Each time you catch yourself sending out an idea that conflicts with what you want, STOP, Correct, and reframe that thought into what you desire.

I suggest you read these instructions once through and then come back and do the exercise.

Now let’s get started by relaxing and centering your energies.  Take a deep, relaxing and satisfying breath.

Then, for the next 10-15 minutes write as fast as you can as many of the things for which you are grateful…

They can be simple and small things or significant and grand things.  Just capture as many as you can on paper while making sure you do not let any thoughts that are fear based or limiting remain unedited or uncorrected.

Do this free of judgment or self-criticism.  If you catch yourself being negative or fearful, just let it go and focus on the corrections, editing, and reframing of the thought.  If you catch yourself being fearful, release that fear with a deep breath.

Let your energy re-center with the intentions of finding as many blessings as you can count to create your “What Am I Grateful For” Gratitude & Blessing List.

Return to writing and pondering the many things you appreciate about your life.

GG Thanks You

When your allocated time is finished, take the time to read over the listWhen you hit upon something or someone for which you are especially thankful, smile.  If it is someone, let a beam of love go from your heart to theirs and in your mind, bless them and thank them.

 

You might notice how happy and contented this little exercise has made you feel.  You might be aware of how much hope you feel.  Your heart may be full of Love along with the gratitude.

Then, I suggest that you take this list of written blessings and review it every morning for 30-days.

Observe the difference this makes in your life.

I would love to hear your comments below about your experience with this exercise.

With Love and Support for you to Be and Become All That You Can Be.

Namaste,

   Genevieve

As You Watch the Dawn Break

As You Watch the Dawn Break

Watch The Dawn Break by Genevieve Gerard

You know there is a magic to the breaking of each dawn.

The fading of the dark reminds us that the Light is stronger than the dark.

No matter how hopeless things may seem, the emerging of the Light tells you that a new day is emerging, and with it come new possibilities and new opportunities.

With the emerging of the Light, you can shed the past.  This day has never been before.  The creative potential of today is just coming into being, born on the wings of the Light.

Let the winds of hope blow into your life.  Today is the first day of the rest of your life.

Dare to dream.  Dare to create the changes that will bring your life purpose into manifestation.

This moment as the world recovers from the dark ignites your will and intention to bring your dreams into being.  Drop your fears into the flames of your desire and watch them turn to ash.

What will you make of this day?  Will it mark the turning point where you open your heart and mind to the possibilities that life is offering you?

The Light reminds you that today has never been here before.

Something spectacular can be created today, something that has never been before.  Take a step into your destiny with gratitude for this opportunity to create your life.

Your thoughts, your dreams, your desires become the directive force by which life gathers substance for creating.  Use them to create all that you need from the rich abundance of the Universe.

Seize the day.  Open your life to the power of success.  Look around you and see where you can do something good.  Where can you and your life make a difference?  What can you do today that you have never done before?  This dawn, this moment is bursting with creative energies.

Your life has a purpose, a purpose only you can fulfill.  You have been blessed with the creative power of your mind to achieve that purpose.  You were created to do just that at this moment in time.

Call upon the wisdom of your Higher Self for inspiration.  Shed your doubts, your fears and any limiting beliefs that may have held you prisoner in the past.  The past is over with the coming of Dawn’s Light.  Today is a new day.

Call upon your guiding and guardian angels to guide you.  Calm your mind as you open your heart.  Open your life to the Divine abundance that is yours as a child of God.

All that you need to manifest your destiny is promised with the dawning of this new day.

Take a deep breath and realize that life provides you with the air for free.  What else is available for you for free that you may not have seen before because like the air it is invisible?  Draw in the energy you need from the Source of the Universe that provides freely from its rich storehouse of abundance for you.

Accept the blessings that surround you to create the life you desire.

Harness the tremendous creative power of your mind.

You are the most important person you will talk to today.
                – Zig Ziglar

Believe in yourself.

Create goals as you realize that:

Goals are dreams with deadlines.
                   – Napoleon Hill

This day will never come again.  Use it wisely!

New opportunities are emerging everywhere.  Open your eyes and let them see what is possible. Open your heart to the unlimited potential that is your birthright, open your mind to creative solutions and open your Soul to guide your steps.
                – Genevieve Gerard

There are within this day 1,440 moments, and at each moment you decide.  That gives you 1,440 opportunities to transform your life NOW.

That “energy follows thought” is a rule of the Universe.  Use that Law to manifest what you have dreamed.  Harness that energy with joy and celebration that as the Light overcame the darkness, you can overcome whatever challenges or obstacles life may have placed in your path.

This Universal rule that “energy follows thought” is the key to the “Law of Attraction.”  It is the power to transform your life into the life of your dreams.

The ability to transform your life and your world is in your heart, your mind and your Soul.  Open to the guidance they provide.  Open to the promise of this new day.

Today I Choose To:

  1. Put away my doubts by asserting I Can and I Will.
  2. Conquer My Fears by realizing they are false illusions that I no longer need.
  3. Invite my Higher Self to infuse my mind with creative solutions.
  4. Open My Heart to Love.
  5. See through the Eyes of Compassion.
  6. Express Gratitude for the many Opportunities and Blessings that are coming to me today.
  7. Do what Kindness I can along the way.
  8. Celebrate the Wonder and Majesty of life.

Let the power of the new day infuse you with a new way of being.

Dare today.  Dare to dream.  Dare to try new things.  Dare to silence your fears.  Dare to claim your birthright as a co-creator with God.  Dare to dance to a different drummer.  Dare to connect with your Soul today. 

All of these possibilities come with the hope, promise, and power of the dawn, the dawn of today.

Namaste,

   Genevieve

You Need to Know What Happens When You Let Your Soul Be In Control

You Need to Know What Happens When You
Let Your Soul Be In Control

Read how to let your Soul be more in control article by Genevieve Gerard

This article is a continuation of my ongoing series on Soul Awakening.

Many of the solutions to life’s challenges are simple.  That does not make them easy.

Free Will is an essential part of the human experience.

I believe the personality, the “lower self,” must make the conscious choice to surrender to Divine Will, the “higher self” or Soul.  Without that conscious choice, the choice to choose Love, the choice to put your Soul in control cannot give you the full power of your Soul.

It is with your decision to bring your Soul into a conscious partnership that you are empowered to work with the Angels and activate spirit to elevate the world of matter, that real enlightenment can happen.

By the very word, enlightenment requires bringing Light into the substance of matter.  This is the destiny of humanity.

The merging of your Soul, with your completely human body, emotions, personality, and mind is what I have called the “Greatest Merger and Acquisition” ever.

It was to fulfill this blending of spirit and matter, light and dark; personal will surrendered to Divine Will that the Creator designed the human adventure. Something magical and mystical happens when Love (the nature of your Soul) is infused into matter (the substance of the world.)

It was to bring Divine Love into manifestation into the world of matter that the struggle of life exists.

Matter, by its very nature, is devoid of Love.  Only through humanity learning to Love and surrendering to Divine Love can in this dual consciousness of Soul and Personality can the denseness of matter be infused by Love, can the denseness of matter be inspired by Soul Light.

This is the fuel of miracles and the purpose of life.  Not just to learn how to Love, but to let Love so thoroughly into your life that the very atomic matter of your being, your heart, merges with your mind into your Soul, whose nature is Love. Ponder on this.

Learning To Love

Your human adventure offers you the opportunity to learn and grow until Love is clearly the answer.  Surrendering to Love is your path to joy.  When surrendering to Love becomes your personal Free Will you automatically align with Divine Will.

Today, I invite you to choose Divine Love.  By making that choice, you have activated your free will on a path that aligns you with the teachings and wisdom of your Soul.  When you choose Divine Love, you are allowing your personality access to transforming power.

When you choose Divine Love, you become an agent of Divine Will here on planet earth.

I understand, although simple, it is far from easy to surrender to Divine Love and Divine WillBut don’t worry, the resistance you have to this kind of surrender is what makes you human.

Each and every time you are able to remain open to Divine Love and aligned with and surrendered to Divine Will you are taking a giant step forward in human evolution.

The fact that you are reading this article today speaks volumes to your openness to making a difference in your life.

The longing you have to be able to remain in a state of Love and aligned with Divine Will speaks to the presence of your Soul.  The nature of your Soul is Love.  It is with Love you can open to the wonder and wisdom of your Soul.

This walk in life with a human body, buffeted with needs and desires is a new kind of human being, a new kind of consciousness that is just emerging in the human experience.  To let your Soul be in control, while still walking in the world of sorrows is a whole new kind of experience in human life.

When you walk through life as the powerful and amazing being that you indeed are, you are thinning the veil between heaven and earth.  You are demonstrating the consciousness of Love.

 Meditation is a portal to the awareness of your Soul.

Bringing Your Soul Into Control

The integration of your Soul with your personality is the result of lifetimes of lessons of love and karma.  The release of personal will to Divine Will is a lesson learned long ago by the Angels.

Coming from a Soul perspective shifts awareness of the illusions, glamor’s and desires of the world of matter to bring an understanding of what is true and real.

Each and every time you put your Soul in control you are fulfilling your destiny as the spark of Divine Light that you were created to be.

When you put your Soul in control, you automatically align with Love.  You activate your co-creator potential that came from the Creator with the breath of life.

Your whole perspective changes when you are integrating your Soul with your personality.  Harmlessness becomes effortless.

Kindness and compassion flow from your heart as you are moved by the sorrow and suffering of others.  You are aware of a unity of Spirit that makes clear your Oneness with all of Life.

Humanities next significant step forward is to master this dual perspective, this dual consciousness, and then bring it into the world.

To merge with your Soul, to restrain any selfishness you may be tempted by, is a significant step forward in the consciousness of humanity.  It is the evolution of a new kind of human being.  One who is in relationship and communion with the Divine.

Imagine, for a moment if you will, just how this world would be different if your Soul were in control.  Imagine if government and society were to follow the Law of Divine Love.  Imagine if the guidelines for the laws were crafted and passed with the principle of the Highest Good For All.

That would undoubtedly usher in a “Heaven on Earth.”  That would fulfill the prophecies of old of Peace on Earth, a time when the Lion could lie down with the Lamb.  These predictions and dreams have fueled all world religions because they are the plan in the mind of the Creator that humanity was created to fulfill.

It takes only a moment of both self-awareness and life awareness to see how far humanity is from manifesting that vision that has been foretold.  Yet, it is by learning to Love, by bringing your Soul into control and by merging your personal will into Divine Will that the best chance for humanity manifests.

To help you on this path I have created an affirmation that you can say as often as you like.

 

Love & Light Are My Lanterns Affirmation

 

Today, I call upon my Guardian Angels, my Spiritual Inner Plane Guides, to provide help and assistance in my life that I may fulfill my life destiny and purpose to manifest God’s Will for my highest good and the highest good of all.

I surrender to and invoke the wisdom of my Soul as I place my Soul in control.

I do this to learn the lessons of Divine Love and to teach others the transforming empowerment of love and light.

As I sacrifice my little will and align my life and purpose with Divine Will, I assert and affirm that: “Purpose Itself Am I.”

To manifest this awareness in my physical reality, it is necessary to allow: “Two Minds to Unite.”

And to let “The Highest Light Control.”

To do this, I must “See the Greatest Light.”

This blending of my Soul with my lower self occurs as a simultaneous act of invocation and evocation.  In so doing I open my life to the fulfillment and furtherance of a plan that is held in the mind of God.

I acknowledge that the Saints, the Hierarchy and those who have served humanity to bring about the manifestation of this Divine Plan will guide and direct me as I put aside my personal lower will.

As I remain aligned and open to Divine Will, I realize that my joy, my bliss, and my fulfillment are found in that merger.

Each and every time that I am able to restrain my personal needs and desires, I am learning to Love, and I am strengthened and supported by resources more amazing and vast than I can imagine.

Love & Light are my lanterns.  Through Divine Love, I can align in full faith and confidence knowing that Divine Will has the Divine Wisdom of a purpose and plan that is beyond what I can see from the vision of my individuated lower self.  As I merge with that Divine Will and Wisdom, I relax and release all of the needs that have burdened my life.

Through my open connection to my Soul, the heavenly hosts are available to provide the healing that those I encounter in my life so desperately need.

Through my merger with Divine Will for the Highest Good of All, I am assured that I will do no harm through the unintended consequences of my personal ego or desire nature.

I walk this path of dual consciousness and awareness with vigilance, and thus I stand.  I am a point of light within a greater light, and thus I stand.  I am a strand of loving energy within the stream of cosmic love, and thus I stand.  And standing thus enlightens the way for others.

                – Genevieve Gerard

 

Your Soul grows ever more in control until the Soul, in power can bring to Light the Love that underlies the happening of the times.  That is the destiny and fulfillment of humanity.  That is the great adventure you can use your life to manifest for the world.

Namaste,

Genevieve

What Your Soul Can Do For You Today

What Your Soul Can Do For You Today

Awaken to your Soul by reading What Your Soul Can Do For You Today by Genevieve Gerard

This article is part of my ongoing series on Soul Awakening. 

Your Soul, also often referred to as your Higher Self, is an integral part of who you are and what you are.

You probably believe you have a Soul, yet, your Soul is probably something which you give very little or no thought or attention.

Perhaps, as a child, you said a nighttime prayer as you memorized the words of a famous children’s prayer Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep. 

But now, as an adult, the concept of having a Soul may not cross your mind.

If you are a participant of A.A. (Alcoholics Anonymous) or N.A. (Narcotics Anonymous), you may have wondered about step 2 of turning your life over to a Higher Power.

You may even have relegated the concept of your Soul to only matter as the eternal part of you that only matters when you die.  Then you may imagine your Soul may go to heaven, or return to God.

Welcome To The Beauty Of Your Soul

Today, I would like to make you aware of your Soul as a dynamic, active and vital part of your life.  A part of your life that can make you more healthy, joyful, and empowered.

I would like to introduce you to your Soul, not as something you tuck away to call upon as your life is fading away.  I would like to introduce you to your Soul as a source of wisdom, a portal to divine energy that can impact and influence every day of your life starting today.

I would like to bring you into awareness of a tool that can help you every day in your life.  I would like to introduce you to your Higher Self and encourage you to begin a lifelong adventure of integration and awareness that will change your life for the better, that will ultimately awaken your life.

Your Soul is more than simply the part of you that is eternal and therefore grants you access to eternal life when your material body fails and fades.

Your Soul is designed to be an active part of the wholeness of your being.  It exists to be a resource engaged in your life adventure, a companion on the quest for love, for success and happiness.

Empowerment

The reason that A.A. and N.A. teach that it is important to turn your life over to a Higher Power is that by so doing you are empowered.  You are empowered by the part of you that has always been there, and will always be there to help and support you, your own Soul. You just need to awaken it.

Your Soul is not separate from God; however, you define God to be, because your Soul is the spark of Divine Light that was granted to you as you became an individuated life.

It is the part of your anatomy that maintains a connection that is eternal.  No matter what you do.  No matter how many mistakes you make.  No matter if you stumble or fall, that connection cannot be severed.

Your Soul, like God, always works for goodIt has the power to heal you once you have learned whatever life lessons dis-ease may have entered your life to teach you.  From the perspective of eternity and the Divine, your life experience is designed to teach and empower you to reach higher states of consciousness.

Major Life Lessons

The Ageless Wisdom speaks of these life lessons regarding your Soul giving you the power and strength to overcome your lower urges driven by your material nature, to greater Soul control as four major life lessons.

In each of these four major life challenges, it is your Soul that stands by to help and support you in transcending the lure or temptation of your lower (animal) self.

These four major life lessons can be broken down into:

  1. Overcome the Desires of the Flesh – the physical part of your nature. Among these are the needs and urges that are sometimes called the seven deadly sins.  They include Lust, Gluttony, Avarice or Greed, Sloth or Laziness, Wrath, Envy or Pride.  I would like to re-frame these seven human challenges as the issues you are faced with in life.

Although these are sometimes called sins, I consider that they are simply the result of selfish and self-centered identification.  They are tendencies and mistakes that you make when you see yourself as separate from others and separate from God.

  1. Managing Emotions – Inherent in life lessons are also learning to manage emotions by learning to transmute, transform and transcend fear, anger, jealousy, and Ego.

     

  2. Mastering the Thoughts of Your Mind – Overcoming worries, fears, negative self-talk and limiting beliefs.

     

  3. Surrendering to Your Spiritual Nature – Using your Soul to integrate and master your physical, emotional and mental full lower natures (ego.)

Because these are the urges and desires of your physical and emotional nature, your Soul is ready, willing and able to help you gain mastery over these aspects of life so you can learn what it is to express Love.

The Nature of Your Soul is Love

Learning to Love is what your life adventure is about.  If you break down the seven deadly sins, they can all be summarized as not expressing the highest form of Love.

As learning how to Love is the business of life, so teaching you how to Love and opening you to Love is the business of the Soul in your life.
                  – Genevieve Gerard

Your Soul is available to help you transmute, transform and transcend any and all aspects of your lower-self that keep you separated from the highest forms of love.  Among these lower-aspects are addictions to alcohol, food, sex, cigarettes or drugs.  The power of your Soul to empower you to conquer these urges is why all of the Anonymous programs encourage step 2 in the A.A. model.

Connecting with your Soul and surrendering your addiction to the healing power of your Soul gives you the strength and ability to conquer physical desires and cravings.

Likewise, being guided by your Soul frees you from the emotional attachments of desire that led the Buddha to acknowledge that life was suffering and that attachment was the cause of the suffering.  Attachment is not love, although it can easily get confused with Love.

Love is life’s greatest gift.  Love is life’s greatest blessing.  Love is eternal.  It is perhaps the one thing we can create as material beings that open us to our eternal and Divine nature.

Your Soul can guide you to learning to Love, not the “sticky and needy” love of attachment, but rather the freeing and inspiring Love of the Spirit.  It is that which is eternal, empowering and life transforming.

Your Soul is a resource to empower you to be all that you can be.  Through Soul Awakening, you are open to who you truly are as a “child of God” who is also the “Son of Man (Human).”  It is your Soul that keeps you connected with God, and with the whole heavenly realm of angelic beings.  It is your Soul that is your internal and external source of truth and wisdom.

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
                  – Rumi

By activating and engaging in a conscious awakening of your Soul, you activate peace, love, and joy in your life.  By surrendering to the wisdom of your Soul in times of trouble and confusion, temptation or terror, you are opening to living life abundantly.

I leave you today with a little Mantram of Unification I have adapted that you may find helpful to affirm out loud daily:

I let my Soul control my outer form in my life and all events so it may bring to Light the Love that underlies the happenings of time.

 

Let wisdom come with insight.  Let the future stand revealed.  Let inner wisdom demonstrate and any outer illusions be gone.  Let Love prevail in my life.

 

May all know love.

– Alice A. Bailey, Djwal Khul

Pray For My Country

Pray For My Country

Pray For My Country Serenity Sunday prayer by Genevieve Gerard

Across the planet in every country we, the people and citizens are noticing that the winds of change are blowing.

More than any time in my life or recollection it seems to be a time that the people are being called upon to make a stand, a stand that will determine and influence the direction and life of your county, and by extension, the world.

Recently in my meditation I created a prayer for the people to invite and invoke the help and support of the Creator, however, you envision the Divine force in life.

By whatever name you call upon the Divine force, it is working through humanity on a plan that was created concurrently with the creation of the first man and the first woman on the planet.

Creation is an ongoing process that fuels the evolution of consciousness in ways beyond our comprehension and understanding.

As you say this prayer feel free to change it in a way that reflects the wisdom and yearning of your Soul.

Your prayer, your intention, your invitation, and invocation attract to your place in the world the help you see needed in the dynamic co-creation of humanity and the Creator.
         – Genevieve Gerard

Your prayer, your intention, your invitation, and invocation attract to your place in the world the help you see needed in the dynamic co-creation of humanity and the Creator.

As you say this prayer you are joining with the prayers of citizens around the world to make this world a better place.  Join your heart, mind, and Soul with the men and woman of Goodwill all across the planet as all seek to make this world a better place.

 

Prayer For My Country

 

Divine Creator,

Our troubled world needs help. With faith and hope, we turn to You to guide the happenings of these times.

We pray for Peace, that every man, woman, and child can be safe.

Guide the leaders of our country to turn away from the conflicts that separate us from others.  Inspire them to find the ways to unity and cooperation with other lands and governments.

We pray that those who make the laws that govern us are moved by compassion and consider their decisions in keeping with their understanding of what fosters Right Relationships.

We ask that how Love is best served be woven into the laws of our land and Harmlessness is considered in all regulations to serve all with equality and justice.

The morality of our country is embedded in every law, help our legislators to consider the moral implications of the decisions they make.

Please protect our leaders from the evil of greed and selfishness that they may find the moral strength and courage to do the right thing for the highest good of all.

Our leaders and our legislators are tempted by evil every day.  We pray for them to find the strength in their hearts and minds to stand firm against those temptations to do what they know to be the right thing for the people they represent and govern.

Help the people to find the strength and courage to stand up for what they believe and know to be Right Action.

We seem to be at a time in the human story when it is more important than ever to make a stand for what we believe.  It may not be easy to stand in Your truth and in Your power so we ask that You empower us with Your guidance and strength.

Protect the poor and disenfranchised from the tyranny of oppression that every life may be granted the freedom and opportunity to fulfill its Divine purpose.

We know deep down that every life, every Soul, has a purpose.  Let education and employment fuel the engines of our success; so that creativity and Divine Inspiration can benefit all of humanity.

Inspire our leaders with wisdom so that solutions to the problems of the day can be found and grant them the courage to stand up for those who cannot stand for themselves.

It is not always easy to do the right thing, to stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves.  Courage and strength are needed by those who strive to do the right thing.  I ask that these men and woman of good will be provided the Divine blessings to strengthen and fortify their efforts of service.

In all that we pray we surrender to the wisdom of Divine Will that this world may manifest Your Purpose and Your Plan for all of humanity. Let me stand as a vessel of your Divine Love.

For these blessings we give thanks.

And it is So.

Amen

 

Namaste!

Remember Who You Truly Are

Remember Who You Truly Are

Remember Who You Are article by Genevieve Gerard

Perhaps, one of the most powerful and profound messages I have ever received in meditation was the instruction to, “Remember Who You Truly Are.”

This phrase not only impacted my spiritual life at the time I first received this instruction but has returned to my ponderings throughout the years.

Today, I share it with you, hoping that within your meditations and ponderings you will find insight, strength, and wisdom.

When you focus on this question I encourage you to have your spiritual journal with you.  Recording the ideas you receive helps you gain greater depth and understandings of flashes of awareness.

You might initially respond to this Koan by thinking it is silly.  You could dismiss it by giving simplistic answers.  A Koan is an exercise of finding a deeper truth.  I believe to benefit from the use of a Koan, you must look beyond the surface into the heart of the question.  In that way, the truth is revealed.

As you ponder the question, consider if you will, all of the roles and titles you have carried through your lifeMost have been descriptions of what you do, not who you are.

Once you move through the identities of what roles you have played in your life, what is left?

Are you larger than the jobs you have done or the roles you played in other’s lives?

At the center of your being, you have the answer;
you know who you are and you know what you want.
          – Lao Tzu

A Meditation To Explore Who You Truly Are

Take a deep breath as you calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light.

Sit quietly and listen in the silence to the promptings of your Soul.  How does it answer the question, “Who Am I, Truly?”

Let your heart experience whatever comes to you.  Let your mind be free.  Suspend judgment.

Open to the wisdom of your Soul.  Invite it to reveal to you awareness you may have never perceived before.

There is no wrong answer.  Just open your heart and mind to the promptings of your Soul.

Listen, in the silence with your whole being as you ponder “Who am I, truly?”

Consider the thoughts, concepts, and feelings that drift into your being.  In the silence, you may find paths of consciousness that call to you.

Let them flow freely, opening understandings that are new to you.  You may wish to pause and record these impressions in your journal so you can return to them in another time, in another meditation.

You may experience an expanded sense of being.  Let your awareness grow to the edges of your consciousness.  Let your perception be limitless.

Taking a deep and relaxing breath, release with your exhale any stress you may be holding in your body.  That stress is not a part of who you truly are, so you can let it go.

Then draw in another deep and relaxing breath.  As you release your breath, you can release your fears.  They are not a part of who you truly are.

Now, as you breathe in another deep and relaxing breath realize you can, with your exhale, release any limiting beliefs and thought-forms you may be holding.  They too are not part of who you truly are.

Return to the silence, as you realize these burdens of stress, fears and limiting beliefs you have carried are not a part of your true self, your essential self.  They have not served you, and you have no need to ever gather them to you again.

Return to the question you are pondering; who am I truly if I am not my stresses, my fears or the beliefs that have limited me?

Allow the peace of this experience to permeate your essence.  As you breathe in, breathe in that peace and calm.  Be aware that you are breathing in peace and calm that comes from the very essence of yourself.

Let the energy in your heart expand into that peace.  Let the Love of your Soul fill your heart as you let yourself Love and appreciate who you are.

In the calm and the silence of this moment let yourself receive the grace of loving and accepting yourself.

In the pause of remembering who you truly are let the grace of self-forgiveness fill your heart and mind.

You are more than the total of the roles you have played and the deeds you have done.  You are more than your emotions and beliefs.  Within you, there is an essential Self.  Open your awareness to that Self.

In the silence, in the calm afterglow of this meditation receive the Love that your Soul has for you.  Receive the grace that is your birthright as a spark of the Divine Light that inhabits us all.

Record your thoughts, feelings, and impressions in your journal at this time.  Remember that writing about what you have experienced helps you ground and solidify that experience.

Expand your awareness to receive the flow of unlimited Love and compassion that is the nature of your Soul.
          – Genevieve Gerard

Be Open To Your Soul

Take a moment, as you calm your mind, open your heart and invite the light of your Soul, to ponder on what you have received in response to the question who am I truly.

Expand your awareness to receive the flow of unlimited love and compassion that is the nature of your Soul.

As, that Love fills your heart and illumines your mind, realize and celebrate that your Soul is an integral essence of who you are.

Yes, you have a human and material body, but you are much more than your body.

Certainly, you have emotions, but they are only experiences along the adventure of life.  They are not who you truly are.

Amazingly, you have a mind, capable of great thoughts and expansions of consciousnessWithin that mind is the power of imagining and perceiving that which is beyond what is material into an essence which is Spirit.

As a Soul, you are a co-creator with the Divine of the nature and purpose of your life.  Yet, for your Soul to work in the world and influence matter, it needs the actions of your physical body. 

 

It requires the understanding and cooperation of others that comes from the practice of compassion and the demonstration of Love that only you as a dual nature of Spirit/Soul and Matter/Body, can offer to the world.
          – Genevieve Gerard

Your personality and ego are part of a team that brings the Spirit into manifestation in the physical universe.  This merger of your Soul with the material is focused on bringing Love into the world of matter.

Love is the essential nature of the Soul and the nature of the Divine.  YOU, as a human being are the incredible miracle of life created to bridge those worlds, to reveal that truth, to learn and teach the nature of Love.

For this great task was humanity created.  For this great service to the whole universe are you here on Planet Earth, learning, growing and striving to transform matter with Love.

This integration of your Soul (whose nature is Love united with Divine Purpose and Will) with your physical body, emotions mind and personality is a divine purpose in life that has a purpose beyond what you can know and see.

Being, and becoming who you truly are, and remembering and revealing your Divine nature while in human form is the pathway that all of humanity must travel to fulfill the Divine Plan and destiny for humanity.

You are an adventurer.  You are a trailblazer. You are a child of God and a spark of Spirit merging divine source into matter as you learn to express and share Love.

In all of creation, the human being is a unique and special being.  Be who you are.  Celebrate this miracle of life you have been granted.  Accept the love and guidance of your Soul as you master your physical, emotional and mental nature and integrate your personality with your Soul.

As your consciousness returns to the activities and requirements of your life, realize that this meditation of remembering can empower you.

You can return to this meditation and this pondering as often as you like.  Each experience can deepen and reveal ever more of the mystery of remembering who you truly are.

 

Namaste,

  Genevieve

Miracles Are Always Possible

Miracles Are Always Possible

Read Miracles Are Always Possible by Genevieve Gerard

Miracles are always possible; that was the message that came through in my morning meditation.

As I went deeper into that thought and that promise, I realized that miracles are not only possible; they are your birthright.

There are so many times in life’s adventure that you may look at your life situation and see what you need and then think; “it is going to take a miracle.”  So I say, “make a miracle happen.”

As I write those words, I can feel a wave of judgment and disapproval from many people.  That judgment says; miracles are the providence of God, not mankind.  However, as I ponder and consider miracles; I would say true miracles are about teamwork.  God, in the many ways in which God moves life is certainly in charge of miracles.

Aligning With Divine Will

Any miracle you pray for and invoke acknowledges the importance of aligning with Divine Will.  Aligning with Divine Will is essential in two crucial ways.   First, only when you align with Divine Will are you assured that the Highest Good of All is the result of the creation of a miracle. Second, aligning with Divine Will is your protection for unintended consequences.

None of us can, from our human perspective, see all of the possible results and ramifications of a miracle.  The implications of every shift in energy are vast.  Surrendering your desire to Divine Will reminds you that the right order and right relationship of asking for a miracle are that God is in charge.

That said, God has imbued us as human beings with a spark of Divine Light and Divine essence.  That is not a gift given lightly.  It is an essential part of who you are.  You have within you that spark of Divine Light as the nature of your Soul.

The Role of Your Soul

Your Soul is always aware of the importance of surrender to Divine Will.  When you want or need a miracle it is your Soul that knows how to help you receive that blessing.  It is from your Soul that the perspective of the detachment of selfish will and desire can come to invoke the Highest Good for all.

When you put your Soul in charge and release your little will and the desires and attachments of your personality, a shift takes place that makes miracles possible.  Putting your Soul in charge not only aligns you with Divine Will, but it also opens you to the realm of Angels to help.

Miracles happen by the teamwork and cooperation of three essential elements; alignment with Divine Will, the surrender of your will, and the collaboration of the Angels.  All of this is the natural result of letting your Soul be in control.

Now, knowing human nature as I do, and understanding the difficulty of the personality to surrender to the Soul, you might say that in itself is a miracle.  Certainly, wrestling control from your ego and personal will is a challenging part of creating a miracle or allowing a miracle to be manifest in your life.

It is important to understand that miracles do not work outside of science and the laws of nature.  They may be outside of what you know and understand about the laws of the universe and nature.  Even God works within the laws of nature.

Recently Pope Francis made this point when he announced about creation, God is not a magician waving a magic wand. 

Humanity’s understanding of the laws of science is continually expanding.  The study of physics is regularly revealing new ideas.  The field of Noetic Science is proving many of the old truths of the Ageless Wisdom that have guided spiritual aspirants for years, such as “energy follows thought,” a universal principle on which I frequently write.

When you expand your awareness to your Soul and put your Soul in control, you open your heart and your mind to the realm of Angels and invite them to help in the creation of a miracle in your life.
              – Genevieve Gerard

An essential part of the nature of your Soul and an essential aspect of Angelic Presence is alignment with Divine Will.  Both your Soul and all the Angels align with Divine Love, which is the underlying force of Divine Will.

Miracles must always take place within the combined energies of Divine Will and Divine Love.

You may not know or consciously understand the subtle manipulation of universal laws and principles that need to be applied to create a miracle.  It is not necessary or even important that you do so.  Faith is sufficient when considering the manifestation of a miracle.

Your Co-Creator Relationship With God

Miracles are the place where you, your Soul and God all meet in your co-creatorship relationship with God.  God created you to live in relationship with Him.

That relationship is a sacred covenant the theologian Martin Buber called an “I-Thou relationship.”  In Buber’s view, all of our relationships bring us ultimately into relationship with God, who is the Eternal Thou.

The relationship between God and humanity is an incredible miracle.  Your relationship is a mystical dynamic between you, (as a son or daughter of mankind), and God, as your creator.

A part of that relationship is a responsibility that you have as a child of God who is miraculous, also a child of humanity.  God put you here on planet earth to help manifest a plan of evolution.  That plan requires your active and creative participation.

Your creative part of that plan is as a human and material being and comes complete with all of the faults and failures you have as a human being.  However, you are imbued with a Soul.  In all of creation, it is only a human being who has this higher level dual nature.  It is manifesting from that dual nature that a miracle is created.  It is with this merger of your Soul and your material life that you can take on the role and responsibility as a co-creator with God.

For this to work and not go horribly array, it is necessary for you to merge and integrate your Soul with your personality.

A part of a powerful mantra that encapsulates this truth of Soul-Personality integration is the Mantram of Unification:

Let the Soul control the outer form, and life and all events and bring to Light the Love that underlies the happenings of the time.
               – Alice Bailey (Djwal Khul  Discipleship in the New Age, Vol. II)

Now take a deep breath.  Calm your mind, open your heart, invite the Light.

As you read this phrase from the Mantram of Unification, consider how it may be used to create miracles in your life.  Ponder on this!

Then, call upon your Angels for help.  They too are part of God’s great plan and have dedicated their life to helping humanity achieve that plan.

As others have, you can ask for a miracle through prayer.  Remembering that surrendering your personal Will to the Divine Will and the Wisdom of the Angelic Kingdom and Wisdom of the Divine is a protection from unintended consequences that can harm you or others.

 

My Prayer for Asking for a Miracle

Father God, Divine Mother, My Angelic Guardians, and Guides, I need help.  It seems that this situation in life, ____________________________________________ needs miraculous intervention.

Please guide and direct me to do what I can do as a human being to resolve this situation.  Please help from your exalted level to create a miracle, if this is beyond my ability to solve.

I ask in full faith and assurance that miracles are possible and in full faith and surrender to the wisdom of Divine Will for the highest good of all.

For this blessing and this miracle, I give thanks.

Amen, so be it and it is so.

When an individual, or even more powerfully and profoundly a group, call upon the Divine for healing or Divine intervention with a world problem, the prayers and invocations create an activation of energy to which all Divine beings respond.
                   – Genevieve Gerard

Remember, miracles are always possible.  You can always pray for and ask for a miracle or a healing.  They are your birthright, and you can manifest them as a part of your great adventure as a Soul, having a great adventure in your human experience.  You are a beloved child of God.  The Angels surround you and are available to you to help you do anything that aligns with the greater plan and Divine Will.

 

Namaste,

Genevieve

You Can Conquer Your Fears

You Can Conquer Your Fears

Read How To Conquer Fears by Genevieve Gerard

Many of us, in fact, I dare say most of us are limited by our unexamined thought forms that keep us locked in fear.

When you read the above statement, you might identify with it; and realize to release your fears, especially changing your life so that you can transcend your fears, may be a challenging task.

Each of us faces our life’s journey from different perspectives and with different understandings.  Your patterns of behavior may be stuck in habits that stand in the way of living the life you desire.

I believe that through meditation, therapy and life coaching you can gain wisdom and insights that are different and more enlightened.

This spiritual journey requires integrating the Soul or Higher Self with the impulses and urges of your personality.  In times of great clarity and insight, the answers may be clear to you, yet you may find yourself stuck in patterns of both thought and behavior that conflict with the wisdom of your Soul.

Habits, in both your behavior and your choices, may seem automatic.  You may observe this when you examine your thoughts, or a more accurate word might be “thought forms.”  Insight, awareness, and understanding of underlying principles of the importance of what you think are much easier than controlling the often-toxic content of your thoughts.  Especially if the content of your thoughts is lace with your fears, it can be hard to control fear based mind chatter.” 

An essential stage in your spiritual evolution, and indeed one of the most challenging and arduous, is freeing you from the limitations of your fears.

Fears unchecked limit your potential for success.  Fears often form the base for “limiting beliefs” and even distort how you interpret new possibilities.
       – Genevieve Gerard

Sadly, much of what is most destructive about fear is that the fear voice in your head is frequently based on illusion.  It is what you imagine (indeed, fear) might happen or could happen; not what is real or true.

Your fears create a whole structure of fantasy that relies on worry and imagination that can keep you trapped within your thoughts in a way that discourages and inhibits creative solutions to your life challenges.

To live the life of your dreams it is important to learn to conquer your fears.  Some fears are natural and archetypally ingrained in the human experience.  As I mentioned other fears are not real.  Luckily, these unreal fears are a part of your psychological makeup and are well within your power to change.

Learning to differentiate something that is worthy of fear from what is mind chatter illusion is one of the first steps in conquering your fears.  If something is truly dangerous, you can still face it and overcome your fears.  If it is an illusion or part of the story you are just telling yourself, conquering your fear becomes far more important.

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man,
but he is brave five minutes longer.
         – Ralph Waldo Emerson

The danger of these illusionary fears is the way they can limit and control your life.  The fear can become the problem even when there is no limitation there.  Therefore, one of the next steps is learning to transmute, transform, and ultimately transcend your fears so you can live the life of your dreams.

Fortunately, since being limited by illusionary fears limits you from achieving your Soul purpose, you can use the power of your Soul (Higher Self) to help you learn to transmute, transcend and transform your fears.

Releasing the emotions created by fear is such a significant step in one’s spiritual evolution, that it has long been incorporated into Spiritual teachings.

One of my favorite techniques I found helpful in learning to stop letting fear limit my life, is available as a guided meditation.  This method is taken from the Ageless Wisdom and has been adapted and converted by me for the Western culture and mind. It is called I Am Feeling Free.”

I Am Feeling Free Meditation Download by Genevieve Gerard

When I was on my Spiritual path focusing on the issue of fear, I would do this breathing meditation over 1,000 times a day.  Since, once you learn it, you can do it without anyone knowing you are doing it simply by directing your intention with your breath, I find it to be one of the most empowering meditations I have ever recorded.  It is something I frequently use in my life still to this day.

That you can use the power of your Soul to resolve such a significant part of your personality’s challenges is an example of living with the integration of “Soul personality duality” that is the next step in humanities evolution. Ponder on the meaning of this.

Your life purpose, your dreams, and your goals can best be fulfilled by you facing your fears and then learning to transmute, transform and ultimately transcend them.  Your thoughts and your beliefs are all subject to the Universal Principle that “Energy Follows Thought.”

Meditation is the portal to aligning with your Soul.  When you receive the guidance and direction of your Soul, then you, as a personality have a choice whether to live your life in harmony with that Soul direction.

Releasing your fears and learning to free your mind from your limiting beliefs is an essential step in freeing your life from the overly emotional aspects of your personality.

Parts of that action involve coming into and functioning within the present moment of time.  So, it is important to:

  1. Let your past be in your past, and move it out of your present.
  2. Forgive the wrongs of others and forgive yourself for your mistakes and errors.
  3. Open your mind to explore new possibilities and new opportunities, as you free yourself from your fears and limiting beliefs.
  4. Keep a journal near you to record any new ideas and inspirations you receive in meditation. They are more important that you might realize at first.

An empowering mantra for you to use in your meditation is:
“May the Divine Self inspire me and the Light of the Soul direct, that I may be led from the darkness into Light, the unreal to the real, from death to immortality.”

Free your life from the tyranny of your fears. 
Remember “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” – Franklin Roosevelt

Watch Franklin Roosevelt short video on fear directly on YouTube.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Joy Is A Spontaneous Expression

Joy Is A Spontaneous Expression

Resolve To Be Joyful photo for Joy Is A Spontaneous Expression blog post

Joy in life is even more important than happiness.

Many issues can impact whether or not you feel happy.  I have often said, and long believed, that happiness is something you bring to life more than you receive from life.

Joy is a spontaneous expression that can permeate your life, adding depth and dimension to the most mundane events and activities.

Joy springs forth in your heart and your mind, not so much from what you are doing but from what you are being.  When you are being appreciative of the myriad of little things in life, joy fills your heart.  It may be as simple as enjoying the cool caress of a breeze on your skin or the fresh smell of the air after a rain.  Thousands of little things in life could easily be ignored as we hurry and scurry through our busy lives.  When we stop to notice the little things in life and appreciate them they can be a wellspring of joy in your life.

Awareness of the world around you seems to be one of the keys and essential elements to bringing joy to your life.  Likewise, gratitude for what comes to your awareness also seems to be a portal to experiencing joy.

What is amazing is that these awareness’s and gratitude’s need not be about major happenings in life. The little pleasures, the simple pleasures, serve to stimulate the wellspring of joy as a natural result of living a normal life.  By being aware of and being appreciative of what is available for you in life, you bring into your life hundreds and even thousands of moments that are joyful.  By the time the day has passed you find that you are, through these simple techniques, living in joy.

Living in joy opens you to a limitless wellspring of understanding and awareness that impacts your personal happiness.

Joy is a spontaneous response to connecting with your Soul.
         – Genevieve Gerard

Joy connects you with the Love and Light that is your birthright as a beloved Child of God.

In my own spiritual and meditative life I began to observe that engaging in life with greater consciousness had an impact on how much joy I had in my life.  By focusing my awareness and expressing my gratitude I expand my understanding of the connectedness of us to one another.  This shift in consciousness led to my life becoming more joyful every day.

This does not mean that I never became upset of sad.  It does not mean I walk through life inside a protective bubble.  Rather, it does mean that the pervading experience in my life, in the midst of the challenges and trials, is one of joy.

The change of perspective that accompanies this awareness is both powerful and profound.  There is an old folk saying, “it does not matter what happens to you, it is how you react to what happens to you that matters.”  This folk wisdom is a key to what opens your life to joy.

Your success and happiness lies in you. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties.
        – Helen Keller

Gradually my experience of joy increased in my life.  I was able to see the many blessings that I came in contact with every day.  Celebration, praise, hope, and promise became common experiences in my life drowning out the voice of fear and leaving in its stead trust and faith.

Knowing that no matter what touched my life each day I could bring forth so much joy, it allowed me to draw the strength to face each dawn excited by the potential of what beauty and blessings were in store for me every day.

Within you is an unquenchable, inextinguishable spark of Divine Light.  It comes through your Soul to be claimed as you take your first breath.  The nature of that spark is Joy.
          – Genevieve Gerard

You can let that divine spark guide your Soul and you can let that Light guide you.  The choice is yours; day by day; moment by moment.  With it, you were given the gift of thought.  Your thoughts and the choices give you the power of co-creatorship with God in your life, through the Universal Law that “energy follows thought.”

 

Transformation Through Joy

Your life, your success, your happiness, and your joy are a great adventure of consciousness and experience.  It is a magnificent opportunity to learn and grow.  You have the power to transform and change everything and anything you choose.

Embrace the situations in which you find yourself with an attitude of joyous celebration.  Examine your reactions to allow your perspective to focus on the positive.  These choices are uniquely yours.

Within these little choices and decision in life are the keys to joy.  You are never beyond hope.  New possibilities are part of the promise of life. 

Mistakes of the past can be immediately released because they are in the past.  From this moment forward you can be free of their tyranny.

Fears that have held you in thrall can be released, right now.  You can take the reins of your life and thoughts, and live the life of your dreams.

This is your life.  This is your great adventure.  This is your life laboratory, your school for consciousness.  There are no limits or restrictions unless you put them there or keep them there.

Let your Joy guide you.  Tune into your Soul, let your higher-self direct you.  It is never too late.  The greatest journey must begin from where you are.  That first step sets off a chain reaction.  Action, combined with intention magnetically attracts what you need, to you.

If you have breath, you have life.  If you have life, you can have hope.  Open your heart and your life to the new possibilities that are available to you.  An old saying that is still true is that “Today is the first day of the rest of your life.”  Claim it.

 

Live The Life You Desire

There is never a better time to begin living the life you desire; living your life in joy.  Today is your moment.  Now is the call from your heart to embrace the unfulfilled possibilities that lie in the back of your mind.  Begin to manifest the dreams and desires, right here, right now, today.

Be and become all that you are meant to be; all you have ever dreamed of being.  The power is yours.  Rejoice, the time is NOW!  The possibilities are unlimited with joy.

In all of my work and in all that I teach: I wish you an abundance of joy in your life.

Namaste,

Genevieve
