Playing truant in the school of life delays your personal evolution

All creatures, including human beings, are here to grow, evolve and expand towards a higher consciousness. That's one of the main reasons for which we are here. But this implies diverse types of tests and experiences  along the path, including small incidents  as well as big challenges often erroneously perceived as problems, obstacles, difficulties, blocks, injustices and so on.

In fact, what you perceive as such are gifts and blessings from the Almighty, and should not be dreaded, resisted and avoided as most people do. Understand that these are necessary steps we all must go through, if we are willing to grow in knowledge, strength, wisdom, understanding, self mastery or even faith; and so, get ready for the next level of higher consciousness.

The majority of people would like life to be as a long calm and quiet river without any disturbance, so that they may enjoy it more fully. They believe that the unique purpose of life is to make human beings happy during their entire journey on earth, by insuring that every possible unwanted condition is put out of equation.

Only a few dare to challenge themselves by facing the difficult conditions of life with the conscious intention to exceed their current limits, and grow, up to a superior level of their consciousness. Maybe intuitively they know that there is not another way towards spiritual growth and evolution.

However, happiness is not the main purpose of human existence. Of course, enjoying from time to time happy events that delight your soul for a moment can be a good thing. But, such circumstances are always ephemeral by nature, like anything else in this dimension of life. So, they come and go, but never last forever.

The main purpose of life however, as stated at the beginning, is to make you grow, evolve, and expand unlimitedly, through all the exams presented to you along the path, in the form of challenges of all kinds. Happiness may delight you; that's true. But, by itself alone, you cannot achieve the spiritual growth and evolution you seek. 

And, if you'd like to have an idea of what your current level of self mastery and spiritual growth is, just observe how you react to the present conditions and circumstances of your life. The feedback you get from yourself like that is an accurate indicator of your current state of mind, as well as your spiritual level. This test will always reveal you the truth about yourself.

As such, life can be compared to a school in which we learn new lessons, that prepare us everyday for the next class, the next year. But if, all year long, we keep playing truant, miss and avoid important courses, we will not catch the essential lessons we are supposed to learn through these courses and pass the final exam that opens for us the door to the next class.

However, it is what we do all the time, when we resist the challenges of life which, like school, gives us new and important lessons every single day, through people, events and circumstances. But, these lessons are so well wrapped and deeply hidden in them that, most of the time, we focus only on forms.

We keep complaining about appearances, or  what is, erroneously perceived as threatening, while in fact these are bearers of lessons for us to grasp. Therefore people, events and circumstances come to you as messengers or teachers, not as ennemies whose mission is to hurt and push you down.

So, instead of joyfully and gratefully welcoming situations without any preconceived idea, and open mindedly be willing to learn from them in order to achieve a greater understanding that leads to a higher knowledge, we resist. Because we believe that life is unfair and against us.

Therefore, we do whatever we can to avoid or escape from people or situations we resent and dread.  But the fact is, as long as we behave like that, situations we resist cannot change; just as students who play truant cannot pass exams and enter the next class. That is, until they change their mind and decide to attend the courses and learn the lessons of the current class, they cannot move to the next.

In fact, situations are not meant to change externally. Change, instead, must come from you, in terms of  understanding and inner growth, before new challenges can be presented to you. That means, you have to become strong, spiritually speaking, to the extend that you no longer perceive conditions as separate, but as integrate parts of who you are now.

Today, take the decision to change your mind about people, situations, events and circumstances of your life.Remember, what is is, but the choice is yours; the choice to react  according to who you are. Decide you will no longer perceive them as separate entities, obstacles, blocks, or threats. But as blessings and opportunities to learn and evolve. And, with more and more understanding, by choosing love you would move towards higher levels of consciousness.

Once you've learned the lessons from a specific level of consciousness, situations will change by themselves and open the door for new ones in the same class or the next. It is not another way around. There is no escape, and the only result you get when playing truant, resisting and refusing to learn your lessons, is but a useless delay in your personal growth and evolution.

This, by the way, is not wise. Because when you do, you'll keep living the same situations over and over again, until you learn the lessons deeply hidden in them. These lessons, however, are delivered for your highest good. For in its infinite wisdom, life knows you must be well prepared and become strong, before you move foreward to the next level.

God knows all your impatience, frustration and anger. But, He's got also the whole picture; meaning,  the challenges waiting for you ahead, in your next classes. And because He loves you more than anything, He prepares you to be ready first, before you face those next challenges.

But, it is important to remember that you are not alone on the path of your journey to higher consciousness.God, through the Holy Spirit is forever present in you, providing you with continuous support and assistance.

That is the job of the Holy Spirit in you; to guide you and help you to catch the hidden lessons of your situations, so that you can move forward. But you also have an important responsibility in this process. It is to ask.

To do so, you must know what to ask,  how to ask, when to ask, and to whom. Asking is not as easy as  people think. If you are not clear at this point, you shouldn't even try to ask for anything. Because risks are that you get opposite results from your "bad" requests.

According to the bible, there is a major condition to perform before formulating any demand. In Matthew 21:22, this condition  is as follows:

"You can pray for anything, and if you have faith, you will receive it."

"If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."

You've got it! This major condition is belief, or faith that you have already received whatever you ask in prayer. But, what is it that you really ask for? What do you really need on your path to a higher conscousness?

In truth, the first thing you should ask from the Almighty is faith. For when you have faith,  you get clear about any situation; you get light. It is what you really need, in order to achieve the state of clarity necessary to learn your lessons.

Now that you know what to ask, when to ask then? You ask only when you are in a state of absolute relaxation, stillness, peace of body and mind. Call it the vortex or whatever. Anything you do out of this state, with a  trouble mind, leads directly to failure and disappointment.

But, how do you ask more effectively? You do it by genuinly giving thanks and gratitude that it is so, and living according this truth. You give thanks to whom? Of course to God, the Almighty, All That Is, through the Holy Spirit which is in you.

Only the Holy Spirit's voice can be understood by God, the Father. The Holy Spirit is the bridge between the Creator and you. You are not pure enough to get in touch with the Almighty, and all your efforts in trying to address directly your pryers and your gratitude to Him, will be vain.

There is still a lot to say about this communication between you and God. This, however, is the big picture.

The universe reacts like a dog

You know that dogs have a very sensitive smell, right? But, did you know that they cannot make the difference between your smell of fear and your smell of hatred. That is, when you are afraid of dogs or do not like them, specially bad ones, their reaction to your attitude will be the same. They will bark and bite you. Period!

This reaction, in fact, translates only one thing: your lack of love!

The universe functions exactly the same way. You feelings of worry, anxiety, despair, abandonment, weakness, powerlessness, threat, insecurity, poverty, uneasiness, fear, shame, resentment, anger, frustration, tension and so on are all resistance to what is, and this resistance is perceived by the universe as lack of love also and a request to give more!

But, what is most grave with this is the fact that this resistance, whatever form it takes, is perceived by the universe as a request from you to receive more of the same. However, it is not what you really wants. What you want in fact is the contrary, or the opposite of the thing that creates resistance in you, and you believe that through your resistance, salvation will come.

But, things do not work this way and the universe does not function like that because it works in an harmonious and consistent way. Therefore, it can bring to you only what you asked for and you ask by projecting what you are every moment of the day.

If fear is your state of mind in this moment, know that you are asking for more fear. If frustration is what you have become, know that you are asking for more frustration. If it is anger, you are asking for more anger, etc.

But, all these negative emotions mean only one thing, as said earlier, that you are resisting to what is. This resistance itself is processed and translated by the law of attraction into lack of love, before being received by the universe as a request to produce more of the same.

People do not understand that and do exactly the opposite of what is to be done. However, know one thing, all your negative attitudes are only the opposite of love. Be love, be what you really are, and there will be nothing else.

Give and you will receive

They say, ask and you will receive. I say, give and you will receive. What do you prefer? For me, I believe that both giving and receiving are one, and there would not be one, without the other. But, the truth is that one precedes another.

Which is thus the one that precedes the other? It sounds like the story of the egg and the hen, isn't it? So, let's assume that as sons of God, we are and have already everything, and nothing is missing to us, right? That means, love, joy, happiness, abundance, wealth, and health, to list just a few, are our inheritance.

If this is so, and I firmly believe that it is, it implies that having already everything, giving then must come first to precede receiving which comes later. But generally, because they don't have the awareness of what their true reality, people have the tendancy to ask, in order to receive what they already have, not realizing that all they seek for is already in them.

When they keep asking, they reinforce in themselves the belief that they don't have what they are asking for. And doing so, they never get it. Because they look for it where it is not for having been confused with their fonction given them by God and which is to give and share with their brothers all the abundance that is in them.

You are a natural giver because of what you are. And, if you want to have some indicators of the things you don't give enough, look at those that are not enough present or are missing in your life.

Do you have enough love, respect, money, abundance, help, attention, kindness, promotion, happiness, joy, health and so on in your life? If not, that's the proof that you are a poor giver of the same. If yes, keep giving more and more so that you experience more also.

Remember, your function here is to give out and share unconditionally with the world the blessings given you by your father. Asking for them is a sign of poverty, which has nothing to do with you.

Don' worry about receiving, this is not your part and does not depends on you. What depends on you is what you are responsible of, or choose to give, through your will. That is the only thing that matters. Receiving, then, takes care of itself.

God's blessings flow eternally

God's blessings and wellbeing never stop. They are inherent to Him, and eternal, like God Himself. Most of the time, we turn our back to God, and ask Him why He has abandoned us.

God cannot and will never do that. We are 100% responsible of our life, the way it is. God has nothing to do with the problems we have, or the "bad" things that happen to us. We separate ourselves from Him, by living the way we choose.

When you are in a dark room during a sunny day, and all you can see is darkness, it does not mean the sun is gone. No. It is still there, shining. But, you have put yourself in place where it rays have no access to you.

The same thing is true with God, the Source of wellbeing. We separate ourselves from Him and His wellbeing, by not being at a place where they can reach us. And we do it by living as we want, or as we choose, but not as we should in order to be in harmony with him.

When we live as we should, with the idea to reestablish our connection with God, we become receptive and open; then, place ourselves back where all His wellbeing and blessings flow incessantly and eternally.

Love God, with all your heart, soul, spirit and strength. Live as you should or ought, in order to be at the same wave lenght as Him. You must become like Him, in order to be in harmony with Him.

When you do, there is no need to ask any more, you just go with the flow. Because, there is not a better proof of your separation from Him than your asking.
