Sharing Spirit Writings

I think it's time to start sharing some of the writings given to me by my Guides well over 30-years ago. Stupidly, I didn't date them so I have no idea what order they were given in.

At the time I shared them with members of my local Spiritualist Church, but having found them a few weeks ago buried in a box in the loft, I really think it's time to share them more widely.

The first one I'm sharing is a poem which helps with some questions I had at that time. I wrote this myself, but am clearly inspired by Spirit as I cannot write poetry. It seems just as appropriate now as it did then, maybe even more so.

Do not judge others too harshly
My Guide said to me last week
Give them your love and compassion
You know nothing of their tasks to meet

We should give them care and understanding
And try to help them through this life
Send out our prayers to all of them
That their next lesson is free from strife.

We should give them our admiration
They’ve chosen this pathway to take
And while many paths are much simpler
Their’s a much harder choice to make

Yet it's hard to give love and compassion

When a man causes a child to cry
And it’s hard to give care and understanding
When a man causes a child to die

It's impossible to give admiration
To men who commits these crimes
What pleasure do they gain from it?
I ask, so many times.

So I'm trying to be very spiritual
But I live in a material world
And while part of me does understand
I still can’t help being repelled.

So I will continue to battle
With two different parts of me
To bring my material and spiritual 
Into much greater harmony.

I'll pray for all of the children
Who suffer at somebody’s hands
That when it's their time to pass over
They will finally understand

God Bless You.

Eureka!

I can't believe I've been so stupid!

The penny finally dropped after spending and afternoon with Abraham Hicks on YouTube. For those who've never heard of Abraham, he's a spirit guide channelled by Esther Hicks.  Esther, her late husband Jerry, and Abraham focus on the Law of Attraction, Cosmic Ordering, Manifesting, whatever you want to call it, and have written many books and given many seminars on the subject.  Esther now tours the USA inviting attendees to talk to and ask Abraham questions.

So it was while watching one of these Q&A sessions that I realised that what I was actually doing was focussing far too much on lack and not on what I really wanted over something recently. I had used up so much energy thinking about what I didn't want and what I could do to change it, that the vibrations I was sending out were all wrong for the desired outcome. Our good old Universe was picking up these vibrations and thinking to itself 'ok, this is what she's thinking about most of the time, this must be what she wants, let's send her more of it'.

And here's where I've been so dense - I know that!  I spend my time telling people that very same thing, think of the positive rather than the negative.  So why did it take watching the YouTube video to remind me?

I've no idea, but maybe our way of thinking is so ingrained and we tend to think far more of what we don't want rather than what we do want. Sometimes we carry these feelings of not being worthy of having the things we want, of being greedy and selfish for asking for those things, that there are more deserving people than us - oh there's a whole host of reasons why we think the way we do. But if we're to be successful and attract the things we really want in life, we have to change our thought process.

So the next time you find yourself thinking that you don't want this or that in your life, just stop and think about what you do want instead.

Writings from Spirit

For a long while we've been planning to clear out our loft.  Over 20-years of living in this house we have accumulated a lot of stuff, much of which has been relegated to the loft.  So last weekend we made a start! It's going to be a long process but bit by bit all unwanted items are either being sold, donated to charity or taken to the tip.

Yesterday I had an amazing find and I am so happy.  I found a book of writings given to me by spirit over 30-years ago!  I thought I had lost them when we moved, but they had been buried in a box for all these years.

As I've already told you, my spiritual journey began over 30 years ago in my local Spiritualist Church.  After a few years my really close friend and I became Chair and Secretary respectively and part of our duties were to take the service each week.  Although we had a weekly medium we still had to run the service and deliver an address.  When it was my turn I would ask Spirit for help and just write down what they had to say.  It all seemed so simple then, but I know now that this was probably a form of automatic writing.

Reading through them all today, I am amazed that the messages from Spirit are just as relevant today as they were all those years ago - have we not learnt anything?  The main focus is on love, tolerance, patience and basically finding the time in our busy lives to connect with our Spirit Guides.

I need to share these writings but I'm not sure how best to do this yet. It will come.  The important thing is that I was guided to to find them so the time must be right.  I must really take on board their messages and not leave it another 30-years or so.
