An attitude of gratitude is
really a recognition as opposed
to a request. It creates a space
in our consciousness that allows
us to see and recognize our
abundance as opposed to the lack,
or the illusion of lack perceived
by self imposed limitations.
Our reality is constantly
generated by our thoughts. Our
interpretation of that reality
creates more circumstances that
justifies it , therefore, keeping
us locked in that particular
movie denying us the opportunity
to grow.
Being grateful for what we
have helps us take some of the
energy away from the illusion of
limitation and place it on
wealth, therefore allowing us to
build a new foundation. That is
how we experience prosperity and
success. Of course, just for
clarification purposes, success,
as defined in this particular
example, is not solely about
having money. There are thousands
of ways to make money. Legally
and illegally. But that does not
guarantee fulfillment. I have
heard some of the most ignorant
remarks like, I do not care if I
have bad health, as long as I
have plenty of money I am happy.
And I am pretty sure you have
heard others.
If someone is grateful only
when he or she get the things
wanted, then that individual have
misunderstood gratitude for
personal gratification. Not that
gratification is bad, but if we
have to wait until we receive
something in order to be
grateful, not only we are
ignoring who we are as Spiritual
Beings with unlimited resources
available to us in this
particular moment, but we will
always have to have more just to
have an excuse to be thankful
for.
That creates a problem which
is; no matter what the individual
have, even when the person thinks
that he/she is grateful, pretty
soon the individual will need
something else to be grateful
for, which will make whatever it
is that he/she already have, not
good enough. As a result of that,
that person's whole life is in
pursuit of something better. I
remember long ago, when I had
some projects in the works. I was
facing a financial challenge. I
only had a box of cereal and some
Rice Dream, which is a beverage I
sometimes use with my cereal. I
pour the cereal in my bowl until
it was full. By being grateful
for what I had at the moment,
allowed me to keep my attention
away from the seeming challenge.
That small shift in perception
helped me to keep my mind clear
in order to work with an idea
that came through.
Out of the blue, as I put the
bowl of cereal down, I get a call
from the musical director of my
church asking me if I was
available the next day to sing a
song I have showcased few weeks
ago because their singer could
not make it. To my surprise, I
ended up getting $60. I did not
know that performers would
receive any kind of financial
compensation for performing at my
church. Truthfully, being
grateful is a way of life. THAT'S
ALL! Be thankful for what you
have, and let the universe
surprise you with its gifts. As
my consciousness opens up,
allowing the universal flow to
express through me, I just keep
experiencing more abundance in my
life. Do not take my word for it.
Try it yourself.
There is nothing to ask for
FOR YOUR FATHER KNOWS WHAT YOU
NEED BEFORE YOU ASK HIM. [MATTHEW
6:7] All you need to do is be
grateful for your dreams and
allow them to manifest through
you, always remembering that ALL
YOUR DREAMS ARE MEANT TO BE
FULFILLED!
