The gift of Grace, in asking for help

2/6/2018

1 Comment

 
There is a grace, and a vulnerability that makes asking for help so powerful and strong. Those words seem opposite, but they are not. Just as giving and receiving are two sides to the same coin, so is the strength in asking for help. Especially, if you are not used to it. You have to loosen the belt of the ego, and admit that you don't know everything, and can't see around corners, and perhaps know (or suspect) your own limits.
I try to write about tools for us to be aware of, and use in both our spirit life, and our everyday life. I think this is a powerful tool, because it precedes all the other stuff that comes up, that can be a waste of time, consciousness, and life force.
When working with angels, as many of you know, the basic rule is, they cannot do anything, until you ask. They cannot intercede. It is the same with your teachers, your friends, and perhaps the universe, or the multiverse. I believe that even practicing the laws of attraction, in your life, is a way of showing the universe that you need to change the energy to something that fits better. You do much of the changing, by using your thoughts, and emotions, and energy to match what you wish to create, or experience, and the universe is a willing partner in the dance.
The same with your friends, and your colleagues. The same with the landscape of your own mind, and heart.
For those of you who work with spirit guides, Power animals, or helping spirits, it is the same.
Some people hand their problems up to Jesus, (or god/goddess/all that is), and ask to be shown the next step.
"Let Go and let God".
"Google it".
"I am in a place of the unknown. I don't have all the answers. I am willing to ask for help, and to receive."
It's a place of not being in control, of not knowing. It's a place of sitting with the mystery of that.
Always having a plan can be good, and feeling that you are in control is great, but sometimes that is not what is. You may need to backtrack, for a bit, and just sit with it all.
Be in the mystery.
Perhaps there is a bigger plan, that you are not aware of.
The void.
You can't manage it alone, you need another way, a different viewpoint, another paradigm, and you can't get there by just pushing, pushing, trying to control, with the old mindset, or the old tools, or the old way.
I think, and have come to understand, that being in the mystery is a holy place. It is an initiation. You perhaps give up from ego exhaustion.
There can be so much energy on "It's a problem".
Maybe you are making your life into a movie of "This is a problem", and have set the stage, the characters, the speeches, etc.
Perhaps you get something out of that.
Perhaps it serves a purpose.
It can make me go unconscious. It can cause a lot of pain, and uncertainty, and I lose energy.
So, let's take a look at that place, of stepping back, and being in the mystery, of not knowing, and having that be ok for a while. Maybe it is a big issue in your life.
Breathe into that place, and relax a bit.
Be vulnerable. Be complete with being incomplete.
Just allow.
Here, in this place, is grace.
It's like a moment of silence, in a crazy, loud, fast paced world.


Picture
Just be in the present moment, and be aware of what's around you.
You can drop the ego act, or at least be aware of it in your thoughts, and emotions, and get a little space.
A time out.
Breathe, and be grateful, for what is, and for it all, in this silent space. In your heart.
That's when Grace makes it's appearance. After you've let go.
And grace is wiser than you.
Just continue to be with the great mystery for a moment more, and drop all that other stuff. And breathe into your body. 
And now, ask for help. Be open to it, to how it comes. Whether it's an idea, or help from an ally, or nature, or divine intervention. Perhaps it is your own higher Self. Perhaps, you just needed a time out.
You went into neutral, and became quiet, and vulnerable, and grace came.
And that is a splendid tool, indeed.
In a short while, you will feel nudged, into taking action. But it will be inspired action, not grinding action. Listen to your quiet voice, or the nudging of the angels, or helping spirits you have asked. You should have more energy now, tempered energy, to make it happen. In that quiet space, you will feel, or know the correct next step, as an expansion, not a contraction. You will sense it, and know it, even if you don't know why.
Not independant, but interdependant.
Here's to Grace, making it's quiet landing, like a bird, showing up because there is a quiet space for it.
Many blessings, on your day,
​Helena

I happen to be in such a state after much "grinding action." Thanks for the validation and a reminder how such beauty is always within easy reach within.
