And A Little Child Shall Lead Them Home

Maternal Blessings

TODAY’S LIFE LESSON: brings home the truth about ourselves and our loved ones when it comes to gifts and giving.  This year for Christmas, we decided to provide our grandchildren with newer updated toys for when they come to visit.  They had reached the age where the other toys were too young and therefore not inspiring for them to play with when they come to visit.

Our idea of not giving them directly to the kids was so they would not feel they had to take them home after opening them on Christmas Eve.  That would be a very hard thing for them to understand, so we came up with a plan to gift them to each other.  I gave Grampa a box containing 5 sets of lego blocks that would inspire hours of creative play and interaction with all his grandkids – and Grampa gave me a box filled with 8 different barbie dolls complete with extra clothes and accessories.

How did we know, that this would be a disappointment to the grandkids!  They looked at their usual gift of pyjamas and slippers along with a stuffed animal puppy to enjoy cuddling as they went home to get ready for Santa, and said ‘Is that all there is?”  This was an unexpected disappointment on both sides.  We were sure they would appreciate all the new things that they could experience when they came to visit us – but they were looking at what they would be taking home and their eyes said it all.

So in my conversation with Source before bed, I asked – ‘Why are we always such a disappointment to our children and grandchildren?”  And the unexpected answer came back – ” Now you know how I feel.  I answer prayers, assist recoveries, inspire blessings and a multitude of other miraculous events to all of my beloved creations, and they still seem to be searching for more . . . and some are even disappointed with what they got.”

DISAPPOINTMENT= not receiving what we thought we deserved
DISCOURAGEMENT= feeling we will never get what we deserve
DISPARAGEMENT= not understanding what we truly desire

The Mind Is A Room We Live In

End Of Time

Today’s Life Lesson: Invites us to take a look at our inner sanctuary where we spend our time reliving the past and releasing the present so we can realize the future.  In our hearts we know there is a divine plan unfolding, and we seek to move in that direction as much as possible, but the inner resistance to the changes we require continually hold the walls and doors in place. Some will remain closed – others are ready to open.

As we begin to awaken to the understanding that the doors we have been living behind are the very way we must escape the limitations or lack we are living in, we become more interested in what lies beyond those doors.  Up until recently, we have been limited to four doors.  They represent the elements of earth, wind, fire and water.  Each of them have contributed to us learning, growing, evolving and developing our soul self.

Today we recognize new opportunities in the form of many doors.  The more doors we open, the more we expand our awareness and perception of who we are and why we are here.  The old doors will only bring a repetition of what has already happened – the new doors represent what will be.  The question is when we don’t know what is behind the doors how do we know which ones to open?  Does it really matter?

OPPORTUNITY = reflects the new way of living
POSSIBILITY= represents the variables we find
PROBABILITY= reminds us all things must grow
CERTAINTY= reveals we are here to evolve

How Do We Learn Life Lessons?

WISE WOMAN

TODAY’S LIFE LESSON: asks a very simple question of us and how we have been learning our life lessons.  In the past we were given programs and patterns to follow so we were guided by our elders and our peers.  Now as we move into the conscious creation realms, we must consider leaving these methods behind us and trust that living in the moment means making conscious choices right in the middle of our challenges that will benefit and bless us going forward.

Old habits are hard to break . . . we are so used to the traditional ways, that allowing ourselves to adopt new ways will take some time and dedication to get through the maze of options and opportunities.  The time is now for the old ways to be shed away and the new ones to embed themselves in our daily experiences.

OBSERVATION= the ability to observe self instead of others
OBLIGATION= the discernment of what is ours to learn or not
OBSESSION= breaking the compulsive desire to hold onto the old ways
