Intention & Being Led

I've only ever made a post when I feel drawn to something, a thought, a feeling or a moment that holds a promise for me and perhaps for others. Based on the comments I receive to newer and older posts, I know others find value in some of what I have to say and for that I'm glad, for me and especially for them.

In the past while I've been working on another step within me, and I have not taken much time to look outside of myself other than to those immediately around me that have needed or asked for my attention.

Intention has been manifesting within me and around me. I have allowed myself to be led by my intuition, following my imagination. Recently I came across the writings of an enlightened man that lived in the not too distant past. I added a link to some of his writings in the 'well thumbed' section. His name is Neville Goddard and his writings, rather his teachings that became written down followed by books that he wrote, all center around the interpretation of the bible, and the use of it as parable to describe Jesus as our imagination.

His teachings are so simple, yet illucidating, especially if your background is a Christian one, or if you have had exposure to the bible. They resonate deeply with me and within me. Even Cheryl, a borderline atheist, read some of his work and proclaimed "This is the answer". For her to say that, well, trust me when I tell you that is quite something.

And so in discovering the teachings of this man, and the history of his life, I've come to apply another layer to my experiences with the mystic in me, another looking glass to add to the collection of introspection. My intentions have been made and are being continually made and being offered up to the connection to the universe within me. I am sitting back and allowing my intuition to be led.

My results are intriguing and startling to say the least. One recent intention was finding a house in the countryside, near enough the city but not too far that met some other criteria and honestly, not only do we have the house secured, but got more than we bargained for.

You see, to picture your spiritual journey as seperate from any other part of you, especially your power as your own primar creator and creative force, is naive. Everything you are is everything you are and more. The body you wear is your clothing, your mind is your creative power and your spirit is your connection to the greatest network of creativity in existence, the universe and All That Is.

If you are still unable to see this, or feel this at some level, then you have unfinished business within you to clear away. Look to mistakes and lessons you keep repeating in your life. Whether you see it or not, you are being led in the right direction, no matter what you do.

Intend your direction and be led. Be in touch with your intuition, get into touch with yourself.
