How Can I Trust Spirit?

Question:

When it comes to trusting Spirit, it's like trusting myself...my doubt surfaces. How can I trust Spirit?

Response from Paularyo:

Dear One, doubting Spirit is part of the human search for truth...a truth you can depend on...a truth which will remain constant.

No human truths remain constant. Your truths evolve as your soul evolves. Allow it to be your truth in the moment.

Question:

What can I do when I can't even find the truth of the moment? When I feel lost and alone?

Response from Paularyo:

Oh my dear, you are doubting yourself and your purpose for being when you reach this level of doubt. In these moments you escape to your long-held stress response. That is, you escape to your head - it is where your culture has taught you the answers to solving your stress lie.

Your schools teach you to store scientific truths in your head and then use them to solve the mysteries of science. You followed their instructions, and received praise. You felt as if you knew something. You solved a problem using your head, and life was good. You began to believe that you can solve all of life's mysteries in your head.

This was your escape from the stress of school. You would go to your head, the home of the temporary truth.

As your scientists have begun to discover, there is more to your life, your world, your universe than can be explained in the 2 + 2 = 4 theory. Quantum physicists are opening their minds...discovering their intuition, and uncovering new "truths" daily. These new truths disprove the temporary truths of yesterday.

My dear, you learned to trust the truths of your childhood. One such truth: "When you are in stress and want to solve a problem, go to your head. All the answers are stored there."

As a child this was your truth. When a question was asked of you, you felt stressed. You went to your head and solved the problem. You were highly praised. You were happy. You were successful.

When you could not find the solution to the problem in your head, you felt a failure. You were un-happy...un-successful.

You developed a long-held habit, "When I am stressed, I can go to my head to find the solution. Then I will be happy. If I cannot find the solution there, I will be unhappy."

This was your temporary truth, my dear. The most important truths in your life are stored in your heart. But heart-truths were often not praised when you were a child, and did not bring the external gratification you sought.

Today it is the truths of your heart that you seek. It is with these truths that you discover internal happiness...true, lasting happiness. Not the temporary lift of external validation...praise, a raise or promotion at work, a new home, new car, or new clothes...these are all temporary.

Some people are addicted to external sources of happiness. These people cannot receive enough. Whatever they get is a temporary fix...but they soon need more and are dissatisfied and tend to blame external sources such as people, places, or things for their unhappiness. They do not understand that they are enough.

Are you enough?

If you go to your head for the answer, your thinking goes in circles. Circular thinking is your marker that you are in your head seeking an answer that lies in your heart.

The easiest way to return to your heart is with your energy bubble. Imagine a bubble of energy around you...it is your energy field...think ONLY of your bubble...allow your mind to clear...imagine your bubble expanding. Allow it to find it's most comfortable size...perhaps as large as the universe. BE in this energy for a few moments. FEEL this energy. FEEL your energy.

Then, open your third eye of compassion. Imagine you are with the important people in your life. Look with the eye of your Soul, with the eye of compassion at those around you.

You will recognize those who are in their head trying to solve a life mystery, and are thus in circular thinking, leading to pain. Have compassion for them, and see a reflection of yourself.

Trust that Spirit will bring to your path the exact right people to reflect your own pain, your own truths. When you expand your bubble and open your third eye, you will recognize them.

As you have compassion for them, allow your Heart, the earthly home of your Soul, to have compassion for YOU...for that part of you who has been enculturated to believe:

* there must be more,

* external praise and/or material possessions bring me happiness,

* the answers to life's challenges are in my head,

* I will be happy when other people, places, and things line up perfectly for me,

* true happiness is just beyond my reach, and

* when (fill-in-the-blank) happens, I will finally be happy.

My dear, external sources of love, peace, and joy are temporary. Know that and know that you are enough in this moment. You are enough. All answers to life's stresses are temporary except for internal peace, love, and joy.

"How do I find internal peace, love, and joy?" you ask.

By allowing yourself to trust YOU. To know that the answers are in your heart. To develop new habits:

*Instead of escaping to your head when you are in stress, be fully present to your life and in your heart. The truth will bubble up from your heart. Allow it.

* Instead of waiting for external validation, know that you are enough. Allow peace, love, and joy to eminate from your heart.

* Allow yourself to know this truth: "There is only the moment. In this moment I have enough. I am enough."

Allow it to be easy. And it is so.
