DAY 16

Synchronicity and Inspiration

There are no coincidences. Anything that coincides is said to fit together powerfully. You move into spirit and feel inspired when you’re activating the forces of the universe to work with you. Today we are looking at synchronicity and inspiration.

Since all is guided by Spirit, there is less of a gap between your thoughts and seeing the result of those thoughts materialize for you. As you place more and more of your energy on what you intend to manifest, you start seeing those intentions materializing.

You’ll think about a particular person, and that individual will “mysteriously” appear. You’ll need a book for your studies that you can’t find, and it will show up in a “mysterious” delivery. You’ll have in mind that you want information on a vacation spot, and it will arrive in the mail “mysteriously”. All of these so-called mysteries will soon be viewed by you as part of the synchronicity of the universe working with you and your highly energized thoughts.

You must hold on to the idea that you can negotiate the presence of these things by keeping your energy field always focused with love on what you passionately intend to create. The law of attraction is put into play, and your thoughts literally become attractor energies. At first, it will seem startling and almost unbelievable. As you stay in spirit and act as if what you desire is already here, you’ll find it less and less puzzling.

Connected to God as you always are, you are the divine force that puts this synchronicity into your everyday life. You will realize very soon that what you think about is what expands; therefore, you’ll become more mindful and careful of what you think about. This process of treating yourself “as if” begins with your thoughts, impacts your emotional state, and finally stirs you into action.

Treat everyone you encounter with good intentions. Celebrate in others their finest qualities. Treat them all in this “as if” manner, and I guarantee you that they will respond accordingly to your highest expectations. It’s all up to you. Whether you think this is possible or impossible, either way you’ll be right. And you’ll see the rightness of your thoughts manifesting everywhere you go.

From thoughts to feelings to actions, they will all react affirmatively when you stay inspired and get out in front of yourself in ways that are consistent with what you want to become. Declare yourself to be a genius, to be an expert, to be in an atmosphere of abundance, and keep that vision so passionately that you can do nothing but act upon it. As you do, you will send out the attractor energy that will work with you to materialize your actions based upon those stated declarations.

Small steps will activate matching vibrations to what you desire. So if you want to live close to nature, plan a visit to the place of your dreams and take the small steps to experience what it feels like. If you can’t or won’t do that, or if you aren’t ready to go yet, you can read books or rent movies in order to have the experience vicariously. But be alert to the vibrational energy of thought and action that you offer Spirit.

When my daughter Skye wanted to produce a CD of her own compositions, it seemed like a daunting task to write, perform, record, and arrange for all of the studio time and musicians. She continued to shy away from what inspired her, so I encouraged her to take a small step and write just one song. I gave her a suggestion for a title and gave her a deadline—and then I watched with joy and pride as she sat at her piano, engrossed in her inspiration, creating. One small step put her on the path of inspiration, as Napoleon Hill suggested when he said, “If you can’t do great things, do small things in a great way. Don’t wait for great opportunities. Seize common, everyday ones and make them great.”

Your Desires Don’t Arrive By Your Schedule

Remember that all you desire will arrive in your life when and only when you’re aligned vibrationally with the energy of your Source. Your ego won’t be consulted or get to determine the schedule—God reveals His secrets when He is good and ready. Your job is to take the focus off of the when and put it on being connected to your originating Spirit. Your job is to stop challenging and demanding responses from God, and instead be more like Him. Your job is to understand and accept that all of the things that show up in your life, which you often find contradictory or troublesome, are there because you’ve attracted them . . . and you need to have these obstacles in order to clear an opening for your true Spirit purpose to emerge.

So rather than making demands of God to follow your schedule, you can let go, surrender, and remind yourself that all is in Divine order. You’re much more successful when you allow inspiration to flow in on God’s terms than when you’re impatient and demanding. As always, your job in God-realization is to become more like God—that means surrendering to the timetable that’s always perfect, even when it seems to you to be full of errors.
