In my last post I wrote about
a time when I manifested something extraordinarily easily. One evening I simply
decided what I wanted, went to bed, and the next morning what I desired had literally
appeared on the lawn outside of my apartment. It was a great example of what I
call “attracting without acting.”
Generally, though, manifesting is about “acting on what you are attracting.” In other words, what you attract into your life is usually just a steppingstone to the fulfillment of your desire, and it is up to you to take advantage of that steppingstone. The challenge is recognizing that steppingstone when it appears, because it is not always obvious. That’s when your intuition can help.
Your intuition can tell you what
person in particular you need to talk to, or what specific circumstance you
need to cooperate with. Even if your intuitive guidance is extremely
subtle—just a sight nudge in a particular direction—it is important for you to
heed that thought or feeling. Here’s a nice little example of what can happen
when you do:
When Carol and I lived in
Dallas, we had a lot of friends who were single. In fact, one evening we
realized that almost all of our
friends were single. They weren’t married, engaged, or even dating. And we missed
having friends who were couples like us. We didn’t know how we would manifest
friends like that, and we didn’t discuss it any further. It was just something both
of us wanted.
Well, the next day I was at
my computer looking through all the emails I had not yet read. A large number
of those emails were from a friend of mine who was constantly forwarding jokes
and funny pictures to me. Even though I do enjoy a good laugh, she was sending
me far too many emails like that, and I had begun to routinely delete them
without opening them.
I was in the process of doing
just that when I came to one of her emails with the subject line, “You Might Like.”
You might like? That sounded like something I probably wouldn’t like—just another time-waster, and I had work to do. But
something unexpected happened when I started to click my mouse to delete it.
Something deep within me told me to stop.
I hesitated for an instant,
and then I started to click the mouse again. But once more I got the feeling I
should not delete her message. In fact, I got the feeling I should open it.
So I did. And I couldn’t
believe the very first sentence I read: “Would you and Carol like to join a
committed couples group that is being organized at the Unity Church of Dallas?”
Wow! Would we? You bet! Suffice
it to say that Carol and I went to the first meeting of that group, and we met
at least a dozen like-minded couples. It didn’t take long for us to form some
very long-lasting friendships.
Friends, your intuition is
the most valuable and reliable source of guidance you have. It may come to you
as a sudden thought, or an unexpected feeling, or something that is a
combination of both—a thought/feeling, so to speak—which is what I experienced.
No matter how quiet your inner voice may be, I encourage you to heed it. It is
the voice of your inner Divine Spirit. It knows what you want. It knows what
you need. And it is constantly telling you the next right step you need to take
to fulfill your desire . . . even if that step doesn’t look like it could
possibly be fruitful.
To put it poetically, “If you
want your desire to come to fruition, pay attention to your intuition.” I am certainly glad I paid attention to mine . . . and still do.
