If your life was written, how would it read? Would it be predictable and boring, or would it keep you reading to the last page? Would your story be full of surprising twists and turns or sadness and tragedy? Would it be full of family, love, laughter and happiness, or one of endless hardship and struggle? Would the story flow like a river, strong and steady, or be bumpy, windy and hard to follow?
As difficult as it may be to believe, most of your life has already been written by you before you were born! You have designed this journey on Earth to live out lessons, resolve karma and to strengthen your spiritual connection to the All. If your life is extremely hard, it maybe that you have left all of your lessons until this lifetime. If, on the other hand, you feel blessed and lucky, you may be reaching mastery and find yourself teaching and leading others. The life you are living is, then, by design but not out of your control. You must consider whether you are happy with the décor or not and start to take charge of any necessary renovation. If you feel stuck or hard done by, I urge you to reflect on how your mindset has been, what trauma or resentment you have been holding onto and what limiting belief sets you are holding.
No matter how hard, sad or calamitous your story has been up until now, the next page is new, fresh and alive with possibilities! Avoid getting stuck in the story, Dear Hearts, because that may keep you stuck in a lesson that you have already learned and begin a new, unnecessary cycle of hardship. Even if you have to cut your losses to move on, isn’t it better to do that so that you can change direction and focus, beginning the next chapter with positivity and the benefit of hindsight?
Personal and spiritual growth are built on experience, but they are also reliant on learning. If you have made a mistake and learnt from it, your ongoing passage will be paved with deeper understanding of how your thought processes and decision making create opportunities and consequences in your life. There is no choice without a consequence, but taking responsibility for one’s actions takes courage. If you are facing hardships but blaming others, you may still have lessons to learn!
Life is like a stage play – all of the characters have lessons to learn and need to act out their part to learn them. They may help each other to do this, but quite often their journeys are completely different or misaligned to each other’s, resulting in arguments and conflict, misunderstandings, unfair judgements and disconnection. The only solution is for each actor to stay true to their own script and to allow the other actors to do the same.
You only live once in this lifetime! Set your own course and take charge of your journey. Take responsibility for your decisions and actions and allow yourself to learn. When the final curtain comes and you take your final bow, make sure that you can look back on the story of your life with pride and certainty that you did the best you could with the script you were given, and took charge of the moments when life went off-script.
The only one who can change the course of your life for the better is you.
Make this life count.
I AM Yeshua ben Yoseph, the one you know as Jesus.
