Have you ever wanted something so bad that you’ve prayed to God that the stars will align and make your dream come true? Have you done everything in your power to make that thing happen? This is exactly where I am. I feel like I’m on the verge of a huge dream coming true but at this point I have no control over the outcome. I’m attempting to put my faith in God, the greater source, to align the stars and feel my pure intention and wish. Letting go and giving that control up is the hardest part. I know that this is based in fear. Fear of not getting the job, fear of being “stuck” in a place I’ve been working towards growing from. But I KNOW that as best I can I have to honor that there is only so much I personally can do to achieve a certain goal. If something is not meant to be it will not be. And if it is then I’ll be so happy. One thing I have learned lately is that we can create our own plan for what we want to happen but the higher consciousness (God) has its own way of working things out; because as long as I have a genuine, positive effort to achieve my goals I will achieve wonderful things. Maybe even things that I didn’t specifically picture for myself but that can serve me in a greater way than what my plan was.

My great aunt taught me a wonderful affirmation to say when I feel doubt and it is to ask God to manifest “This or something better”. I love that because we all get an idea of what we want in our heads, a specific job, a relationship with a certain person, an ideal weight, etc. But what if there is something more amazing that will ultimately serve us to a higher degree than what we could have thought of for our self? I think this is an awesome concept. You just have to trust that the stars will align in the proper order to most fulfill your soul.  You still gotta put in the work though! Miracles don’t just come out of thin air by doing nothing!
