“Desire in the heart is always God, tapping at the door of your consciousness…The thing you desire is not only for you, but has already been started toward you out of the heart of God.” –H. Emily Cady
If you would like to manifest your desire, get out of the way. Do not quench the spirit! Enjoy that good feeling you get when an unexpected flash of a wonderful possibility comes to mind. See it as an indication that it is “in the cards” for you. There are two attitudes of mind that get in the way of your greater good materializing for you. One is dismissing it as too silly, too good to be true, too far out of your reach. The other is trying to figure out how you’re going to make it happen.
Both of these attitudes are ways of saying no to the good being offered you, to a possibility you'd love to experience. If you really would like to cooperate with the good that’s seeking you, stay out of the way. Refuse the urge to shoo away your good. See your desire as a premonition. Remind yourself that with God nothing is too good to be true. Look forward to it by anticipating in what wonderful and unexpected way it will come about. Do not try to figure out how you're going to make it happen, let God surprise you! Rely on poise, not force. Poise is power. Poise is the winning combination of joyful expectancy and patience. A great little affirmation is, “God, I'm trusting!” Use this and let it go. You will be guided. You will end up in the right place at the right time. The right people will appear to assist you.
Shortly after moving to Los Angeles a young couple decided to spend a day at Universal Studios amusement park. One of the attractions was the Backlot Studio Tour. During the tour a guide drives the group on a tram through the backlot movie sets of Universal Studios. The tour guide points out areas where historical movie making scenes have taken place over time. During this specific tour the tram drove past the Town Square set. This is the set where several of the iconic scenes in the motion picture “Back to The Future” took place. While passing the area it was obvious that a production was underway. The crew was working on the staging while the actors were close-by seated in the folding chairs you’d expect to see on a movie set. When the tram passed by at a distance, cast and crew noticed and waved to the tourists. Waving back from the tram the young man turned to his wife and said, “Isn’t that wonderful.” He had a flash in that moment of experiencing himself as an actor on that very Town Square set, bringing joy to a group of tourists with a smile and a wave as they passed by.
From time to time since that moment he would enjoy reliving that desire in mind. He’d just enjoy the idea of it and let it go. It made him feel good to think about it, so he thought about it often. Serendipitously, people, events, and connections began to happen that corresponded with this desire. The only effort he took toward this end was following joyful hunches when they came up. In a little over a year, he was working as an actor on that very Town Square set waving with a big smile to the tourists passing by on the tram.
The desire for a change for the better is the Divine nudge of progress. “Quench not the spirit.” If you’re not clear what it is that would bring you more fulfillment, ask God for a sign. You will get one and you’ll know it when you see it because it will feel good. Believe beyond any doubt that Spirit is guiding you to your highest and best. Do not be discouraged or dissuaded by the opinions of others or your own limiting ideas. Affirm that you have mountain-moving faith to do whatever you are called to do in the most positive and effortless ways. Accept your desire as a premonition and look forward to it.
