“The Universal Responses To Your Choices”
By Barbara Brennan
What is this beautiful spiritual longing
that you carry in your high heart?
What is it that you most long to do?
For once you choose,
you will be carried by a set of circumstances
that you could not even imagine
as the universe responds to your choice
with great support.
Now, perhaps, the set of circumstances
aren’t what you expected, to say the least. Perhaps what you expected
would be an easy go of it, so to speak.
However, if you have come here
to test your love,
then indeed, that is what you will do
from the greater perspective
of your wholeness and wisdom.
To test love you will go into the dark places in your soul, and that of others.
To test courage will require,
and therefore attract fear.
To test wisdom, you may find yourself
sunk into ignorance and forgetting.
To test ability to become clear,
indeed you will walk into confusion.
None of it is an accident,
it is what you have set yourself for.
Gayle’s Reflection
Beginning with a prayer I open the book. The title itself opens me to my own heart, realizing how supported I really am. The Universal response to my choice to do this project is letting me know absolutely I will achieve my desire with the help of spirit and the unseen realms.
There have been many opportunities for me to accept this as fact. (Yet I resist and disbelieve again and again.) For my life experiences have shown and proved to me repeatedly this is true. Most recently I made a strong choice and decision to being married again. Well wouldn’t you know—My higher-self began to show me what went wrong in previous relationships and the depth of what was lost in my marriage.
For the last nine months I went into those emotions as stated here, accessing my courage to explore deeper the unconscious places around my marriage and what happened in it. I discovered marriage is the ultimate test of love.
I saw my ignorance. I saw my fear. I saw where I was unclear. I felt my confusion around circumstances I had not yet understood. Again I felt my grief for what was lost.
Out of it I gathered more wisdom and allowed myself loving acceptance of whom I was then and who I am now. Consciously resolving the unconscious inner conflicts which keep me from deep committed love was the best gift I could not have imagined. My choice of getting married was given to me through Universal Response.
Thank you Universe. I have found more of myself amidst the dark places in my broken heart. I could not have imagined I would find so much of myself while asking to find another.
Thank you Barbara.
See you tomorrow.
