The first part of this amazing gift is vision. At this point you've done a lot of work, opened and healed and it's time to turn on your light and open the doors of your soul and invite in change. If you want the power to create, which is your gift from God, you have to be willing to allow change in your life and in yourself. If you want this, then obviously you've tried your way and stayed in your comforter zone and it isn't working for you anymore. It's time to break out and watch the flow of the universe and gifts and guidance from God rush in. You will glow with the love light of God and wholeness and happiness filling you. If God is everything then what shall you not have? Trust and follow Him and he will guide you, He is the ultimate source and He will provide.
Remember early on we shed those self limiting beliefs. You are capable of anything, you can do anything if you have the want and the openness to allow it to happen. Fear is natural, you don't have to fight it, but you do have to invite it to walk with you and transform into enthusiasm as you walk the path to change and creation. So when you think about what you really want in life, when you are guided towards a higher vision of yourself and your life, you have to first dispel any limiting beliefs about yourself that you have been hiding behind and allowing to hold you back; you have to work through those. Then you have to invite the remaining fear to come along with you on your journey, eventually it will disappear. I know looking at the big picture can be scary and sometimes knowing the expectations on us can make us run from it for fear of failing, but if you trust and listen to God one baby step at a time you cannot fail.
Look at any excuses you may be holding on to that you are allowing to be a closed gate on your path. They may be "I don't have a degree", "I don't have experience", "I don't know what I want", "I don't have the money", "I don't have the time", "people won't understand or will judge me". Those are just a few. You have to decide to not let those things hold you back from your vision. God is bigger and greater than all those excuses. To get started, remember that it's not up to you to know the how to make it happen or what the outcome will be. Will you be successful? Will you allow God to make you successful by letting go of the excuses and trying to plan it all yourself? Will you listen to your guidance and follow where you are told? And will you allow and believe that God will source your journey? Will you allow your practical self to move over so your miraculous self can get started?
If you don't know what your vision is or what you want, do a meditation and ask. Write down the question and put it under your pillow. Think about it in prayer and be still and wait for an answer. If the answer isn't coming yet then keep trying but also keep looking at your limiting beliefs and excuses that may need to be worked through still, and see if you have healing work to still do. We always have healing work to do so that will always be on going, but if it's a lot, it may be you're not ready for your vision yet. That's ok, keep working towards getting your vision and doing your work. It will come. Your vision may not be a full and complete picture of what your purpose or life direction is, it may be small glimpses or guidances towards what you need to do, eventually you will see the big and full picture.
Remember when the vision comes, don't run or rush towards it, allow it to gracefully unfold in your life. I know it's exciting and you have so much energy and enthusiasm but don't rush to it, it will come to you. Sometimes when we rush to something or allow ourselves to get too excited, it doesn't last. We get burnt out or once the excitement is gone we are left with a low. We don't want to ride the rollercoaster, we want to enjoy every step of the process. We want to be an active participant in every moment of its unfolding and hold gratitude and appreciation. If things start to move quickly, which they may when the divine takes over, remember to stay focused in the present. Don't keep your eyes on the prize, instead, hold the vision and enjoy walking the path. Live the vision, don't run towards it, don't miss the gifts in the process. This allows you to live and be in the vision now so as to maintain it easily later.
To hold the vision means to keep it in your mind as you pray and meditate and to allow it to really fill you up and allow it to sink into your mind as a real possibility. You allow it to happen in your life and become real. You ask how or what needs to change and wait for the guidance. You'll feel directed to do things or given a chance to see things differently that open path ways for the vision to take shape. Think about what you can do daily to allow the vision to happen: if you need to have better thoughts, maybe listen to and notice how you speak and act. Maybe you act differently around different people, this is a clue that you are not being your authentic self and could be blocking the vision. So just gently try to correct your behavior as you notice it and just be who you really are, a loving light of God. This is a practice in consciousness, as discussed before. The only person you need to worry about what they think of you is you, you have to be with yourself and God at the end of the day.
As you allow yourself and the things around you to change the vision will begin to become a more solid possibility for you. God will open paths and ways for you to accomplish the vision He has given you. Reverend Doctor Michael Bernard Beckwith calls this being "pulled by a vision", the vision literally pulls you to it. Things can happen as if by magic or miracle but it's God moving an open and willing you into the space He has already created for you. So it starts with a vision. You can add things along the way, God wants us to be prosperous and happy, so as long as you are allowing Him to move and work in your life happiness and fulfillment will follow. Follow the guidance as it comes, listen to your higher inner voice, your intuition and your heart. Allow yourself to be moved and guided out of your normal habits and routines, remember if you want change you have to allow it to happen. Love & Blessings.
