What Lessons Will Love Teach Me?

This post is a part of my ongoing series on Love.

As I ponder the meaning of life I find myself considering the lessons of love.

When I look back over my life the lessons of love stand out as the most important things I have ever learned.

This leads me to ponder and consider why learning to love is more life-enhancing and transforming than the many lessons that must be mastered every day?

Somehow, the lessons of love stand out as more significant and more meaningful than all other life lessons.

I have long seen life as a university of consciousness. Throughout life, you can do right, or do what is wrong. And from that adventure learn what works and what fails.

Each of life’s lessons is important but I believe the ones involving love are the most profound. Cumulatively, these decisions on a trial and error basis form wisdom. Over the ages, as you live and learn, your Soul, as the Divine Spark of your consciousness, learns its lessons that it can make available to you when you call upon your Higher Self for insight and wisdom.

Your Soul, as the eternal part of your being and essence, becomes a storehouse of wisdom. Miraculously, you can call upon that accumulated consciousness to guide you and advise you in this life experience.

Accessing the wisdom that is stored in your eternal spark is part of how your Higher Self supports and teaches you. It’s still quiet voice can guide you and inspire you in many of life’s challenges. Your Soul’s voice is vast and when called upon provides discernment that spans knowledge.

There seems to be an indwelling guidance system of calling upon your Higher Self that works amazingly well in life. The more you use it to solve and resolve your life lessons the better it works.

Yet, it is in learning life’s lessons about love that there is a shift. There is something about love that stands out as different. Learning to love which is arguably the most important lesson life will ever teach you stands out as unique.

That is because love is not a decision or action of your personality, your mind or even your emotions.

Love is a state of being that is created Soul-to-Soul. The essence of your Soul is already love and when that essence is turned to another it forms a miracle of eternal connection. This is a part of both the mystery and the magic of love.
– Genevieve Gerard

Once love enters the equation life’s experience moves from the material and temporal into the realm of the spiritual and eternal. It is effortless for your Soul to make this transition. Your Soul already lives in the spiritual and the eternal. Love is the very essence of your Soul. To love is the expression of your Soul’s highest nature,

Love is different from anything else you learn in life. Love is where your Soul and your personality must meet by the very nature of what it truly means to love. When you love, what seems to be situational and circumstantial shifts into what is beyond time and eternal.

It is with love that the blending of action and being come together in that is unique in the human experience. It is when you love that you can really function as a dual being of both Soul and personality.

The nature of love is Divine Love, so when you love you have opened yourself to the eternal and you have opened yourself to your Soul.

Unconditional love really exists in each of us. It is part of our deep inner being. It is not so much an active emotion as a state of being. It’s not ‘I love you’ for this or that reason, not ‘I love you if you love me.’ It’s love for no reason, love without an object.
– Ram Dass

It is this blending of action and being, this merging of your Soul with your personality that makes the lessons of love different from any other life lesson. It is in the coming together of the temporal and the eternal that love can provide such joy in your life. It is when we love that we touch the very nature of the Divine.

God is Love
– Jesus Christ

It is when you love that you have an understanding of what life is all about. Meaning is granted to the most mundane experiences. To love changes everything. It opens you to joy and fills you with contentment.

True love is free from attachment because it dwells in the eternal. We learn to love because we are loved. Our hearts expand with love as we touch our Soul, whose very nature is love. The more we open our life to love the more we know joy. The more we open our hearts to love the more we understand the seemingly incomprehensible concepts of Grace, compassion, and mercy.

It is because your Soul dwells in the eternal that aligning with and calling forth the Love that is the nature of your Soul allows you to begin to learn the lessons of love through choosing to connect with your Soul. It is because when you love another you must access your Soul to form the eternal bond that is the nature of love that your life is transformed by learning to love.

I can think of no situation or circumstance in life that has more power than love. I can think of nothing that is more profound than letting yourself love. Love immediately creates a magnetic attraction that can be sensed by all of life. This occurs intuitively and preconsciously beyond logic or understanding.

Like draws to like so the more you love, the more loving people come into your life. The more kindness and support you receive from unexpected places. As you choose to give more love and be more love in the world you find your connection with Divine Love is a source that you can draw upon without limit for the blessing of others. Ponder on these lessons.

Love becomes its own reward. This reward is not measured in material things but is measured in joy. It brings with it a deep sense of peace, yes even the peace that passes understanding when this lesson is learned and demonstrated.

Below is a meditation to help you experience the Love that is available to you. I suggest that before you meditate that you have a journal beside you so you can record and remember any insights you receive in meditation.

A Love Meditation
to Bring You to the Touch of Your Soul

Sit quietly as you calm your mind, open your heart, and invite the Light.

Let your breathing rise and fall naturally with the awareness that you are the one who is breathing in and you are the one who is breathing out.

Let yourself open your heart and your mind a little more with each breath.

As your mind calms from the focus on your breath allow your heart to expand with the energy of love.

As you are aware that you are the one who is breathing in and breathing out realize that the love that is filling you is a part of who you are. That part is your Soul, whose very nature is love, whose very essence is love.

As you fill your heart with the love energy that is streaming into you invite the Light of your Soul.

Identify with that energy that is filling you to overflowing by affirming

“I Am the Soul”

Let that affirmation resonate with you.

Then affirm:

“I Am Love”

As you say those words let the power of Love fill your heart to overflowing.

Then using your creative imagination visualize a source of Divine energy that you may experience as a golden or ultra-bright white light, a braiding path of love moving into your heart and imagine that light expanding your heart with the Divine Love that is the nature of your Soul.

Let the love stream of energy coming from your heart touch the love stream of energy coming from your Soul.

Imagine those two energies moving back and forth, up and down from your Soul to your heart, and from your heart back to your Soul.

As these two streams of loving light circulate realize that they are blending and fusing.

As they merge and fuse they are expanding the love in your heart and fusing your love with the blessing of Divine Love.

The chalice of your heart overflows as you touch this Source of Love that comes to you.

In this love, with this love, you are being love. Let that essence flow through you and then with intention let that essence flow through you as a blessing to all others and a blessing to all of life.

This love that flows through you and from you is completely free of desire or need. It just is. It blesses every being that it touches without need or attachment. It is full and complete as you are full and complete as you serve as a conduit for Divine Love.

Let this love and this light flow outward to the weary waiting world for as long as it feels right for you to do.

You have merged your heart with your Soul. Let the strands of the braid from your heart to your Soul relax and loosen.

As you become aware of your body again focus on breathing in and breathing out.

Be aware that you are the one who is breathing in, and you are the one who is breathing out.

You are also a Source of endless Love centered in the Will of Love Divine.

Standing thus let yourself be aware of your body and your breath.

Be aware that in meditation with the touch of your Soul you can be a dual being of Soul and personality, of love and Light.

Take a really deep, satisfying and relaxing breath to enjoy and appreciate the amazing being that you are.

Let your breath return to a normal relaxed breathing. It may take a moment for the beating of your heart to quiet and calm.

As you return to your normal awareness take a moment to stretch your body and relax.

Then take a few moments to record the sensations of this experience along with any sensations you can recall of holding love in your heart.

This Love, this connection with your Soul and with the Source of Love is something you can draw upon for your healing and your happiness. It is also a Source of Love you can use to share with all of those you Love.

This Love is given freely, requiring nothing from the other. It can flow freely from your heart to their heart with your only desire being the highest good of all.

You can use the above meditation technique any time you need it to connect your life with Love and demonstrate the lessons of love that you have learned.

Namaste,

Genevieve

The blessing of love on all that you do!

Love Lessons Karma Teaches

Love Lessons Karma Teaches

This article is part of my ongoing Series on Love.

We, the planet earth, the family of humanity are at a crucial moment in history.

The energy that surrounds and sustains life itself is shifting.

We are One life, One humanity.

Unique life lessons are becoming available to the people of the world. These experiences are bringing a new consciousness into expression. These lessons are guided by Love and the Law of Karma and the Divine Plan of evolution for humanity.

Despite the illusions of separateness that are fostered by belief in nation states and borders, we are all interdependent.

There is only One planet that we inhabit. What one does in their little corner of this world has an effect and impact on the other corners in the world.

Because the world seems large, it is possible to ignore this. Because human skin and eyes come in many different colors, it is possible to deny this. However, there is only one race on this planet; the human race.

Humanity has been living, growing and evolving since the dawn of time. Since the moment when life was created with the words “Let there be Light,” there has been in the mind of the Creator a plan. Humanity is a cornerstone of that plan.

That makes human life valuable. That makes each and every life matter. That makes your life matter. That makes your life an integral part of a Divine Plan.

Philosophers and theologians have long pondered the meaning of life. I have often pondered the meaning of life. I believe life is too vast and amazing to exist without a purpose.

What has, for me, given meaning to life, is that each and every person who lives on this planet is involved in a great adventure.

In its various ways it can be experienced on this planet, life gives us a tremendous opportunity to learn and grow. Absolutely nothing that ever happens in your life separates you from that opportunity.

Although the creator has a plan, we, human beings were created with Free Will. Free Will gives you the opportunity to decide what lesson you take from each and every experience your life adventure offers up.

Free Will is a “Law of Life.” However, it is not the only law. For all of the free will, life is also subject to “The Law of Karma.”

The Law of Karma

The “Law of Karma” actually enhances and empowers free will because the Law of Karma is all about you learning life’s lessons. The Law of Karma presents life lessons as many times and as many ways as you need to learn that lesson.

Good intent and good deeds contribute to good karma and future happiness, while bad intent and bad deeds contribute to bad karma and future suffering.

The Law of Karma always made more sense to me as the way a God who is described by Jesus as a God of Love would arrange life. The Law of Karma seems more efficient as a learning tool than the concepts of Hell Fire and Damnation. Although fear of punishment may control behavior, I fail to see how you learn from that. You are an eternal being, a Soul, and a human personality. To live life fully in relationship with God there are many mistakes and failures of your free will.

I would often ponder, what is the lesson that life and karma teach?

Problems or successes, they all are the results of our own actions. Karma. The philosophy of action is that no one else is the giver of peace or happiness. One’s own karma, one’s own actions are responsible to come to bring either happiness or success or whatever.
– Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

The Most Important Lesson is Love

As I consider the lesson karma teaches, I realize that the most important lesson is Love. The lesson that life offers up time and time again is how to love. Love cannot be demanded; free will precludes that. However, Love can be demonstrated.

When you express Love, you activate the Law of Karma. And, when you fail to love, you activate the Law of Karma. When you love, especially when you let your Love reflect Divine Love, you are learning one of the most valuable life lessons.

Love is meaningless if it is not given by Free Will. Love based on need and desire falls short of what love really is. In life, love is so much more profound than an expression of need and desire.

Divine Love is unconditional. That is most often a challenge for a human being caught up in their separate ego and separative consciousness. Therefore, the Law of Karma comes into play.

The lessons of the Law of Karma are often harsh and painful. Loving is not easy. The life lessons that teach us how to love are often lessons of loss that result in emotional pain. That may lead to the illusion that love is only an emotion.

That misunderstanding about what it means to love someone is part of what can be so confusing about love. In English, the same word is used to describe love in every form. That can make you believe there is no difference between attachment and need focused upon a loved one versus Divine Love.

That cannot be further from the experience of love.

Love and need, and love and attachment need to become separate in your mind when you consider the lessons of love in life.

This merging of need and desire, this blending of attachment with the experience of loving is something it is important to consider.

Psychologist and philosopher Eric Fromm, who wrote a lot about the different forms of love and different expressions of love wrote:

Immature love says: ‘I love you because I need you.’
Mature love says ‘I need you because I love you.’
– Erich Fromm

That difference is one of Karma’s life lessons about Love. It is one of the most profound and life transforming lessons you will ever learn. You need to ponder on this lesson.

The primary lesson that Love teaches is that “Love never ends.”
Love is beyond attachment, desire, and need because Love is eternal.
– Genevieve Gerard

This shift in consciousness, in loving, takes love from being a sticky and sentimental expression into a miraculous and transcendent experience.

Separating love from need; separating love from passion and desire; are just a few of the life lessons that the Law of Karma seems to teach us with broken hearts and broken dreams.

Love is the energy of the Soul
joining and connecting with
the Love essence of another Soul.
– Genevieve Gerard

Because Love is an expression of your eternal Soul in connection and relationship with another Soul, Love is both transcendent and in some mysterious way transpersonal. This Soul-to-Soul connection of Love is what makes it possible to understand and to do what was commanded by Jesus in John 3:13 when he said,

A new commandment I give to you,
that you love one another,
even as I have loved you,
that you also love one another.
– Jesus Christ, John 3:13 New American Standard Bible

It is Humanities destiny to learn how to love.

Right next to this understanding and expression of Jesus’s teaching about Love is the direction to “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

Now, those two lessons about Love are so universal that I am sure they have been heard in every nation of the world, whether it is a “Christian nation or not.”

We need only a quick look at the world we live in to see that those lessons are still on the Law of Karma’s text book.

Had humanity learned the lessons of Love encompassed in those two teachings of Jesus, Brotherhood and Sisterhood would have created the world in which war was impossible.

Clearly we, as the family of humanity still have a lot to learn about Love.

The beautiful thing about the force of Divine Love is that it is unconditional. Because of that, we are forgiven. Our human failures to learn the lessons of love are forgiven. And, the Law of Karma grants us the opportunity to try to get it right, again.

My prayer for the world today is that we all pay attention to the lessons of karma and consider what love is trying to teach us today.

Questions To Ask Yourself

I ask you to put your thoughts and your emotions to the test by asking the question:

How is Love Best Served Today?
Has the Law of Karma taught me the lessons of love that result in compassion and brotherhood?
Have I loved my neighbor?
Have I followed Jesus as a teacher and guide in my life when he said in the teaching parable Matthew 25:40, “Yea though you have done it to the least of these my brethren you have done it to me.” See my The Least of These My Brethren article.

These are the lessons of love that the Law of Karma will teach until the future day, perhaps seen only in the mind of God, when the Divine Plan is finally completed.

These are the decisions men and woman of Goodwill must consider across the world, across every religion and every culture.

These are the choices that every government and every government leader must decide. And, as has always been the case, Love will be defended by the Law of Karma.

There is a part of a mantra that I focus on when faced with these decisions. It is taken from a Mantram called the Mantra of Unification published in 1955 by Alice Bailey and a Hierarchical Master Djwhal Khul in their book “Discipleship in the New Age Vol II pp 146-147.”

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.

Let vision come and insight.

Let the future stand revealed.

Let inner union demonstrate and outer cleavages be gone.

Let Love Prevail.

Let all men (and woman) Love.

I choose Love. I fail sometimes, but I choose Love. I invite you to join me in choosing Love.

I know the Law of Karma will come along and teach me the ways I need to learn what it means to love and how to “love my neighbor as myself.”

But today, as well as I can, I choose love and I invite you to also choose love.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Will You Stand For Truth?

Genevieve Gerard

Will You Stand For Truth?

I do not spend my time writing about politics. That is not my life’s purpose. It is not my mission.

I do not even make political comments on Facebook.

My focus is on spiritual values and right relationships, love, harmlessness, right speech.

So, imagine my amazement when the direction I received from my Soul in my morning meditations was that I must write about the topic of truth. Now, I have written about truth before, but never because of something political. This is entirely new for me. But there are times in life when it is important to take a stand for truth.

Sadly, my stand today must have a political overtone to it. That stand is that I cannot be silent as I let the truth be hijacked by lies.

ALTERNATIVE FACTS

Kellyanne Conway, President and CEO of a Polling Company and Counselor to Donald Trump (the current President of the United States at the time of this post), came out to the American people trying to make obvious lies acceptable by calling them “alternative facts.” That is just wrong!

The truth is such a powerful force that I have often suggested that you listen to the inner promptings of truth as the arbiter of what you believe. I have even asked people to use that inner sense of truth to determine whether what I teach and say should influence their lives.

That, of course, comes from the understanding that truth is the truth, and, as such, has the resonance of the Soul to it. What is so very dangerous about this concept of “alternative facts” is that it is a perversion of truth and just plain evil in its nature.

Opinions are always open to interpretation. Your perspective on something can be modified, and that modification can determine how you experience something, particularly emotionally, however; a fact, by definition is a fact. It is objective and real, and it is not subjective.

The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it,
ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.
– Winston S. Churchill

DEFINITIONS OF FACT

Wikipedia Definition: A fact is something that has really occurred or is actually correct. The usual test for a statement of fact is verifiability—that is, whether it can be demonstrated to correspond to experience. Standard reference works are often used to check facts. Scientific facts are verified by repeatable careful observation or measurement (by experiments or other means).

Merriam-Webster Definition: Something that truly exists or happens : something that has actual existence. : a true piece of information.

Dictionary.com Definition: Something that actually exists; reality; truth: A truth known by actual experience or observation.

When someone tries to convince people that something that is true is not a fact or an “alternate fact,” that is a lie.

It is important that you realize and understand this. It is important because truth is a powerful force for knowing what is good and right.

Jesus understood this and taught this when in John 8:32 he said,

and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
– Jesus Christ (King James Bible)

The truth makes you free because that resonance that the truth responds to is the resonance of your Soul (and Love.) Connecting to the wisdom and promptings of your Soul is what guides you in right action in life. It is what makes clear what is right and what is wrong. It is The Truth.

ALTERNATIVE FACTS ARE JUST WRONG

Perhaps the most dangerous part of what is happening with this concept of “facts” is that you must silence the wisdom of your Soul to believe an “alternative fact,” which is not a fact at all, just a lie dressed up to serve a particular political agenda.

To play fast and loose with the truth is morally wrong. It is not ‘just politics,’ it is just wrong.

It is wrong because it is “Gaslighting“ (a common technique abusers, dictators, narcissists, and cult leaders use.) Because truth resonates deep within your heart, your mind, and your Soul, I believe a lie takes you to your dark side.

When spoken by someone in a position of leadership a lie can be dangerous. It is dangerous because people must move away from the knowing in their Soul when they try to believe a lie. The more they force themselves to believe a lie, the more they must reject their internal sense of knowing and connection with their higher source.

The Psychology Today website states that people who “Gaslight” mostly use the following techniques:

They tell you blatant lies.
They deny they ever said something, even though you have proof.
They use what is near and dear to you as ammunition.
They wear you down over time.
Their actions do not match their words.
They throw in positive reinforcement to confuse you.
They know confusion weakens people.
They project (and accuse you of the same wrongdoing.)
They try to align people against you.
They tell you or others that you are crazy.
They tell you everyone else is a liar.

Do the techniques above sound familiar? You know what they are saying is an outright lie. Yet they are telling you this lie with a straight face. You know they said they would do something… you know you heard it. But they out and out deny it. It makes you start questioning your reality. And the more they do this, the more you question your reality and start accepting theirs.

Gaslighters are masters at manipulating and finding people they know will stand by them no matter what – and they will use these people against you. By telling you that everyone else (your family, the media) is a liar, it again makes you question your reality. What is so amazing is that you usually have never known someone with the boldness to do this, so they must be right, right? No! It’s a manipulation technique.

Many good and well-meaning people have let their love of their political party lead them down this slippery slope that evil will use. History has shown us, and I pray taught us, the evil consequences of people making compromises with truth. To compromise your morality is spiritually dangerous and can be politically disastrous.

Hitler’s propaganda chief supposedly said,

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it,
people will eventually come to believe it.
– Joseph Goebbels

Although it is not clear who first said this, it seems that idea predated Goebbels and Hitler. The bottom line is that harm is created with a lie and it brings you out of resonance with your inner sense of knowing, an inner moral compass which knows the “real” truth and directs your life.

That is why it is important to call a lie a lie and not dress it up with fancy words that dismiss and diminish the importance of the lie by calling it a falsehood. That is why the political art of spinning what happened is currently so damaging to the world.

Evil is tricky. It tries to dress itself up to look good. That is how it makes good people, moral people, complacent.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil
is for good men to do nothing.
– Edmund Burke

The fact that this is the second time I have felt compelled to use the above quote in a brief span of time is because the world is at a tipping point. This is particularly the case in the United States of America, but as I ponder, meditate and pray about this issue, I realize the slippery slope of playing fast and loose with the truth has been going on for quite a while. This trend is not only in the United States but has been growing throughout the world.

TIME TO TAKE A STAND

As happens in the world, events and circumstances have emerged at this moment in time that requires you to decide what you believe.

It is a time to decide where do you stand? Do you stand for truth or are you willing to accept alternate facts, racist comments, and lies as truth?

When you get to the core of the above questions, they really are not just political but rather spiritual.

Many people have responded with anger and fear to the recent political decisions that have been made on both “sides of the pond,” as they call the Atlantic Ocean.

As Master Yoda put clearly in the movie Star Wars,

Fear is the path to the dark side.
Fear leads to anger.
Anger leads to hate.

The answer to the challenges of this world moment is not anger or hate.

The answer is Love.

Humanity has come to this critical moment in history not as an accident but as a crucial stage in our spiritual and moral evolution.

Choices lie before us; decisions that will affect not only our country and people but the evolution of the planet as a whole.

The consequences of greed and separateness are now becoming more apparent. What happens next is your choice. The fate of humanity hangs in the balance.

I believe it is more important to stand for what you believe than it is to stand against something.

The world your children will inherit, and your children’s children will inhabit is just one of the many decisions that hang in the balance of this moment of moral history.

I choose Love. Not the “sticky love of attachment and need” but the powerful transforming dynamic unconditional Love that Divinely inspires you throughout your human adventure of life.

Along with choosing Love, I choose Unity and Brotherhood (and Sisterhood). I choose Truth. I choose Justice. I choose Liberty.

I choose Right over wrong, and I choose Good over evil.

I invite and encourage you to look into your heart and connect with your Soul and make the choices that resonate as right for you and your country.

We the people of the world are at a time when it is necessary to decide and choose. I encourage you to choose Harmlessness, Right Speech, and Right Action not only for your highest good but for the highest good of all.

To make the right choice requires honoring the truth. That requires honesty not only with yourself but also with the world. Truth is not a “situational reality.” It is either real or not, a truth or a lie. Your Soul calls to you to honor what is true and take a stand. Thank you for taking the time to hear what I have to say and connect with the truth of your higher self. Please share this post and comment about how you feel.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Introduction to How Miracles Are Created

Genevieve Gerard

Introduction to How Miracles Are Created

My meditation and thoughts have been recently focused on the subject of miracles.

Miracles are something that seem important to understand.

As I ponder and consider what makes a miracle happen and what composes the building blocks of a miracle, I realize that some special energetic forces must come together to cause a miracle to happen.

I will strive in this article to explore the factors and components that combine to create miracles. I will try in what I write today to provide you with ways to empower your life to make you more open to miracles.

At its core, a miracle is an amazing thing because to make a miracle happen the physical and spiritual worlds must come together. In this realization, there is an important hint to ponder on about how miracles happen.

As I contemplate on miracles and pray for guidance on how to teach and explain them, I am aware that attempting this teaching is a demonstration of how times are changing. As we enter into this new stage of human evolution, what has long been kept hidden is now being revealed.

The old ways, “to know, to dare and to do and to keep silent” are being replaced by openness, as humanity is changing and evolving. Miracles, while as old as time itself, have traditionally been reserved for Divine beings. The past is peppered with those who were ordinary people before they performed what became known as a miracle.

When I consider the stories of miracles, I, of course, look to the stories of the life of Jesus, which are recorded in the New Testament. At the same time, it is important to remember that Jesus said, “Greater things than I have done you shall do.” John 14.

Jesus’s statement seems to direct people to not only believe in miracles but to take an active role in the creation of miracles. It does not relegate miracles to 2500 years ago. It does not imply that miracles are the exclusive purview of Jesus. It seems to imply that doing miracles is a natural and important extension of being disciples of Jesus and of being a spiritual being. It seems to take away the excuse and limiting beliefs you might have about performing miracles because you are only human.

It seems to mean that miracles are a part of living and coming into relationship with the Divine that it is important to understand. This article, this exploration of the components that make miracles happen and sharing my understanding and awareness of miracles is more than I can do in 2000 words today. I realize that there is so much that goes into a miracle that this article is the first step into this mystery.

Miracles are not contrary to nature,
but only contrary to what we know about nature.
– Saint Augustine

In pondering the concept of miracles, you may be immediately confronted with what you believe you know about life and science that falls into the realm of miracles. I will remind you that new discoveries are constantly being revealed about the nature of energy, particularly in the area of subtle energies.

Quantum physics and the astonishing revelations of Noetic Science all make it clear that there is still so much we do not know or understand about life.

It is interesting to note that much of what is being revealed and confirmed in Noetic Science is scientific confirmation of much that has been taught in the Ageless Wisdom.

I continue to explore this concept of miracles through meditation. Also, I will continue to ponder and consider what is revealed in my consciousness in my quest to empower you to create miracles in your life.

As I write to you today, I realize that even though I have been pondering and meditating on the subject of miracles for a while now, the insights and understandings I have now are just a small glimpse into the truth of how miracles work.

I will commit to continuing this quest into the subject of miracles and share with you any insights and revelations I receive in subsequent articles. These I will identify, like I do with my healing articles, as a part of an ongoing series.

That said there are some things I have come to understand about miracles that I can share with you today.

Intention, Personal and Divine Will

It seems clear to me that a miracle involves a merger between intention and personal and Divine Will.

This merging of Will seems to be one of the building blocks, or essential components for manifesting a miracle. I am speaking here of miracles beyond the miracle of creation or the miracle of life itself, to the little miracles you and I may wish to focus upon as we move through life.

The dynamic of personal Will and Divine Will is an integral part of all energetic healing. It speaks to the very deep and profound issues in spiritual and life experience.

This issue of personal Will and Divine Will influences prayers, and it most certainly has a profound impact on the creation of miracles.

As I have considered and prepared to write this article, I have found this issue of personal Will and Divine Will interweaving through my thoughts.

As I have explored why my ponderings about miracles have led me repeatedly to the issue of Will, I realized that it is in the creation of a miracle that personal Will and Divine Will must become perfectly aligned.

This alignment of personal Will and Divine Will is an important part of all energetic healing, and since the miracle that many desire in life are directly related to healing, that makes a great deal of sense. So in some way it is natural to consider healing and miracles together.

A miracle is distinctly different from a prayer or invocation for healing. Although some of the components are very similar to prayer, there seems to be more to a miracle than just prayer. This seems to imply that there is a blending of invocation and evocation in both miracles and prayer.

The Role Of The Soul In Miracles

As I write about miracles, I find myself needing to stop and meditate to let my mind be open to what is involved in performing a miracle. That very fact seems to give an important hint about miracles. A miracle is performed by your Soul when held in perfect alignment with Divine Will. Ponder on this.

Another vital and very important part is that the personal Will is also perfectly and completely aligned with the Will of the Soul and Divine Will. This trinity of Wills has a dynamic power to it.

To achieve this alignment of your personality and your personal Will with the Will of your Soul is an exalted experience and can be transformative and transcendent. Just aligning with the power and magnificence of your Soul is already amazing. This experience alone is often life-changing.

When energy is further aligned with the power and presence of the Divine, especially through the aspect of aligning your Will and your Soul with Divine Will, energy can be changed. It is in this alignment of Source, Soul and Self that great power is released. It is in this unity of Will and purpose that dynamic transformation can take place.

To concurrently be invoking your Will and to be at the same moment in time completely surrendered is a unique experience. All of the prayers you have prayed through a lifetime of petitions are preparation for this mystical moment of union. It is special and rare, as miracles are special and rare.

Prayer is the medium of miracles;
in whatever way works for you, pray right now.
– Marianne Williamson

To come into greater awareness of your Soul and to touch and incorporate the amazing breadth of the wonder of your Soul, is perhaps the best way to open your life to miracles.

Meditation Is The Portal

Meditation is the portal to your Soul. When you open yourself, your heart and your mind to the love that is the nature of your Soul, you have embarked upon a quest to understand the Divine in a more profound and powerful way than you may have thought possible.

It might be said that the first step in a miracle is the step of opening yourself to experience the wonder of your Soul.

The joy of connecting with your Soul in meditation is both wonderful and glorious. Today I offer you a meditation to help you experience the joy of connecting with your Soul. I know of no greater gift that I can give you than to facilitate your connection and awareness of your Soul.

A Meditation to Prepare your Life for Miracles

Much like prayer will help you learn to align your personal Will with Divine Will, this meditation is created to help you align with your Soul.

To begin sit in a quiet place, clear of distractions or interruptions.

This is a special time. This is a sacred time. To enter into this meditation first declare your intention to be open to the amazing Presence of your Soul.

Calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light.

Let yourself draw in a very deep breath to help you relax. As you exhale, release any tension or anxieties and let them fade away and disappear from your awareness.

Come into this moment of time. It is only NOW. Nothing that has ever been before this moment has any power over you.

Draw in another very deep and peaceful breath. As you release that breath, let forgiveness and grace begin to fill your heart and your mind.

Affirm that although you have a body, you are more than just a physical being. Realize that although you experience a great array of emotions, they wash over you freely and are now freely released.

Accept that you have a mind, yet you are more than the content of your thoughts.

You have a personality. Let it surrender to the Love, the Wisdom and the directing of your Soul. Let the Soul have control.

Identify with your whole self as you open your heart and your mind to experience the magnificent radiance of your Soul.

Visualize your Soul as a radiant golden-white light three feet above your head. Let the Light, the Love and the Power of your Soul, gently fill your whole being. You are Love. You are Light. You are the Soul.

You are a miracle of Divine Light created by Divine Love and infused with Divine Wisdom to be a Soul having a human experience right here and right now on planet earth.

Let that thought pervade your thoughts. Let that truth fill your heart. Open yourself to being your whole self.

Pause as you breathe in this essence of being that is available to you.

Immediately release any thoughts that disturb you. Let the peace that passes understanding into the moment. Accept the grace, understanding and forgiveness that connecting with your Soul brings.

Let all of your fears crumble into dust as they are blown away into oblivion. Gone, they have no substance to emerge again.

You are Soul. You are the spark of Divine Light that is endless, timeless and eternal.

As Soul, you are One with the Universal Presence. As Soul, you are aligned with the mind of God.

Pause and let yourself experience all that is available to you in this meditation and this moment.

Stay with this awareness for as long as you can. Gradually become aware of your breath. Let your awareness drift to your mind, your heart and your body. Let yourself be filled with the Light, the Love and the Power of your Soul.

As you are ready to conclude, become aware of the sounds and the vibration of the world around you.

Before you return to the needs of your life, take a moment to express your gratitude for the blessing this meditation has been.

Namaste.

I suggest that you take some time in the afterglow of this meditation to record your thoughts and impressions in your journal.

To touch your Soul, is to touch the hem of heaven. I invite and encourage you to meditate on your Soul often and open yourself to the amazing creation that you are.

To touch your Soul, can be the fuel for miracles in your life.

Namaste,

Genevieve

The Blessing of Love on all that you do!
