a surprising find in my clutter

I was cleaning up my files this morning, deleting, sorting, reading ... then I saw an article and wondered where on earth I got it. I couldn't remember reading it before but as I did this morning, it just struck me as something really "heaven sent", like the angels themselves are talking to me directly about something very important.

MESSAGE FROM THE ANGELS

My dear friends, we love you so very much.

We hear your prayers and know your worries dear ones, but if you knew the truth of God's love for you and the reality of life on earth you would never have to worry again. You would trust that wherever you find yourself, all is in perfection. You would know that whatever anyone else is experiencing is exactly what they need at that point for their soul's education. And in releasing your worries you would find boundless energy - for your fears drain the very life force out of you, focus you on negative realities, and prevent you from your natural state of creativity and well being.

Worry is a learned behavior. It is not a natural state of being for the soul. It is taught to you from an early age. You learn that if you care, you will worry. And yet, dear friends nothing could be farther from the truth! To worry about your future is to focus on and therefore lend energy to the very reality you wish to avoid. To worry about another is to focus on a negative reality for their future. Every thought you think, and every word you utter is a prayer. And while none of you would ever consciously pray for the worst for yourself or another, that is exactly what you do each time you send a worry out to the universe. It is a weak prayer, thankfully, but nonetheless a command to the universal intelligence. You do not want to create all you worry about dear ones! You want to create the beautiful dreams you dream with conscious intent.

So what to do when worry arises? Ask yourself, "What if my worry came true? How would I handle it?" Sometimes just looking fear in the face causes it to dissipate. Then say to yourself, "What is the best that can happen?" Allow yourself to envision the best possible solution. Ask yourself also, "What are the facts right now... today?" Remind yourself that you can always handle today. Envision the best for tomorrow.

And above all else, dear ones, when worry arises, say a prayer for the outcome you DO want. Instead of worrying about your children's safety and fearing the worst, pray for the best. Instead of worrying about whether or not you can pay your bills, pray for financial security and plenty of abundance. Instead of worrying about your health or the health of another pray for their well being and vitality. Instead of worrying about Mother Earth, pray for her well-being. In this fashion you become powerful creators for what is good, true, healthy, joyous, and everlasting here upon your earth.

God bless you! We love you so very much.
