Trusting What Is

It seems that most of the situations we humans have trouble with are all of the ones in which we lack faith. We forget that the Universe knows exactly what it is doing, and is always arranging things for our ultimate best interest. Whether the issue is financial trouble, romantic trouble, family trouble or otherwise, it all comes down to the same lesson. We are so limited in our thinking, and from our perspective, it appears that everything is not ok.

When one takes a step back, however, catching a glimpse of life from the outsider's perspective, we realize that it doesn't matter which path we take. We will always end up where we are supposed to go. There are no wrong decisions.

Other people might try to convince you that what you are choosing is not right. Here is where we have to determine whether they are mirroring an aspect of ourselves which may not be fully confident in the decision being made. Many times, however, it is simply their ego trying to make sure you don't do something that they don't like.

In moments such as these, one must get quiet and look within. Ask the Universe, your guardian angels, spirit guides, your Higher Self, or God what the best option for you might be. Make sure you allow enough peace and silence in your day to be open to receive your answer. Then, as they say, "Let go and let God."

Trust that everything is always unfolding exactly as it ought to. If you have no doubt that you are safe, and things always work out for the highest good of all involved, there is no room for fear. The Universe can orchestrate things so much more magnificently than we ever could. It only makes sense to release the perceived control and allow the Universe to do its job. It may take time to develop this sense of trust, but once it is there, it never goes away. Life becomes so much more joyful when you realize that it's not your job to worry about how everything should happen.

When something unwanted happens, just take a nice deep breath and reassure yourself that you are loved and protected at all times. Lean back and witness with a sense of awe how it all unfolds, knowing that everything is always ok.
