YOU CAN CHOOSE YOUR OWN FUTURE! HERE AND NOW! What if we could make the rest of our destiny? Create our own future? Well we can! Because your thoughts are directly linked to your destiny, through the 5th Spiritualist Principle which is Personal Responsibility. It’s true we actully do make our own destiny - because we are all personally responsible for our thoughts and deeds. A quote: “Thoughts sow Deeds, sow Habits, sow Character, and your Character decides your Destiny� Look again at that the last bit ...'Character makes destiny'.
In other words if you think and act badly you can’t expect people to give you love and light! The key words are ... thought – deed – habit – character – destiny. Thinking is followed by doing, control the thinking in the first place and you’ve got yourself under control, and so your character is formed. If we don’t like the destiny that we’ve got… then we can change the whole thing by looking at all of these basic words - than ask where does the thing start? With our attitude! And that means our attitude to everything we see - and that in turn means our attitude to all God’s creations and creatures. In fact to anyone or anything, which comes within our sphere of existance. Because that is our attitude to God/all life forms, and this is what makes the person that we each are. THOUGHT is a form of energy that stimulates another basic laws into action. You’ve heard the expression, “Like attracts like�… It’s no good thinking one thing and doing another. A hypocrite is a person who does exactly that! So the thought is the most important here. Hypocrisy is a character trait that gets us all annoyed; we can all do without that! Another old saying “Misery enjoys company� In other words - thinking negative thoughts attracts negative people - yes, by just a negative attitude to things in general we attract like-minded people in both the physical and spiritual worlds. Conversely…if we are posative and find somthing to like in a person, or whatever, then the likable part of it will be attracted towards us. Now, I know this doesn't mean everyone is going to suddenly switch to 'fantastic complements' mode! But keep at it and a strange thing happens ... a negative reaction shifts into a posative one. Example, ask a person to do somthing for you, and when they say "no" wait, and ask another time maybe another question, that opportunity is far more likely to be taken up at the next chance because your posative attitude attracted a posative attitude...see? How do we make a destiny come to us that we would like? Be careful, think about what you actually want to attract …eh? Remember "Do as you would be done by." BUT HOW is this acted out in every say life? By not letting corrosive thought find a place to settle in the mind; by actively being aware and making a decision to root out negative thoughts. Saying to yourself “Woops that was a wrong one.� And putting a right one in it’s place. And the secret is we don’t have to believe, we only have to try it, and find that it does work, of course it takes a bit of patience, habits are not grown over night, they take time. Example: Thinking "I can do this", and repeating it over again till it is sticking in the brain, after all the brain is a tool to be used we are not subject to our thoughts, they are our creation, so it is up to us to control them. NOT by keeping out of trouble and so just not doing anything wrong, NO! But by behaving in such a way as to be of assistance of out fellow man - By giving! Thoughts come before deeds, it’s the attitude that counts, by getting into the right way of thinking with everything around us, by getting into a giving habit we alter everything else. By being altruistic. ‘Altruism’ is defined in the thesaurus as the charitable attitude - A person who is a lover of mankind! FATHER GOD - BROTHER MAN For those of us without the income to be monetarily generous there is always the gift of time and patience together with love, which is generosity in itself. Everyone has some of these to spare. The charitable attitude does not choose who to whom it is directed, in other words not only to the family but to strangers too … To the loved and the unloved alike! HABITS A good habit is as easy to get as a bad one! But I admit it's harder to exchange the negaitve for the posative, so forming good habits first is a wise plan, and character etc will follow on. Also think about this, our children reflect our philosophy, "out of the mouths of babes and sucklings." CHARACTER Think about this; what we do not like in others is what we seek to hide in ourselves…think about that one a bit. DESTINY Karma, how does it work? The great sages say in many books that it doesn’t matter if you believe in reincarnation or not, the deeds of both kind, negative and posative, will be accounted for. TO RECAP Our attitude is our thinking, our words lead us into deeds, and after a little time habits are formed, and character emerges from those habits, which then in turn by attracting 'like to like' form our destiny, that’s it. Get the first and we have the rest. Eternity is the time we have to progress! It’s how long we have to get it right! And so it should be, that we all go on forewords at our own speed, because although stagnation is bad for us it doesn’t matter if we decide to stop for a while and rest, even regression must end eventually, so cheer up, we all will get there no matter how we do it. Thank goodness The Great Plan is ‘fool proof’ God has allowed for every eventuality, and eventually we return from whence we came…back to Him, our home. Amen to that.
This was a Philosophy talk given some time ago in church - normally the process here is to stand up in the state of ‘receiving’ (as one would when giving Clairvoyance). The altered state means that while speaking it just ‘passes through’ and is not generally remembered, but in a some cases, when I’ve asked, spirit helpers have assisted me in writing the contents down later, and I thank them. Perhaps you would like to read the article on progression through HEALING? The healer doesn't just heal, they too are healed in the process! amazing how it works for all those willing to 'give it a go'! For the article "How might spiritual healing help ME?
