Perfect example, for the month of July, I started to panic because I was not going to have additional income. My contract was not starting again till August when my last contract was completed back in June. So, I did what I could: kept in touch with everyone in my professional & personal network; continued to write; and released any lower/negative energies to God and asked that He give me the strength to focus that energy into any kind of change. The first thought popped into my head: "Stop worrying." I literally laughed out loud and said to myself "are you shitting me?" Then, I blinked and expected lightning to strike me down, luckily, it didn't. I literally stopped and sat alone in silence for what seemed to be 45 minutes to an hour. Then, I had an epiphany--that was what else was missing in my life--besides praying, I was being compelled to sit in silence and listen to that inner voice, whom I believe is the voice of God. This voice reassured me that I've done all I can; to let Him "take it from here and trust, completely trust, that all things are not as they appear, that I'm where I am supposed to be." So I followed my heart (God's inner voice)...know where it has led me? Well…
BECAUSE I DIDN'T EXPECT ANYTHING…Here's the result : I was only off for a week in July, when I was asked to contract beginning the 2nd week of July and will officially end on 8/9/12. That's perfect because my next contract is on 8/17/12. A little down time in between is good! Next, I've purchased my airfare for my annual trip to see my parents which I didn't expect to buy until October 2012. I've got a round-trip airfare to Miami for a girlfriend's bachelorette weekend compliments of my son as an early birthday gift. Note: the Miami trip, I'd already shot down a few times previously because I couldn't afford to go. But, hey now that I have the ticket—I CAN'T COMPLAIN! Look, bottom line is I did the best I could for my part, I let go and let God do His part…Practice makes perfect, simple as that.
When things are meant to be, they just are. Till next week, I bid you all Love, Light& Compassion, My Loves.
