A.S.K. and the Law of Attraction: Deepening Vocation 2nd part



"You can't be ambiguous. You will confuse the universe...," a dear friend laughingly told me three days ago.

 I have shared with my him my 'call' and he asked me what have I been doing to achieve it...

Illusions, Law of Attraction and the Blue Feather
I have heard of the Law of Attraction from friends. They started talking about creating a positive mental attitude and manifesting it to the world. In fact, the very first book my sister gave me to read after I came back home was on this.

"When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it." ~ Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist.

So this law defies 'magnetic interactions...?' 

"Like attracts like Melissa. Believe and receive," my friend added, 
"holding what you have in mind in your hands already.

Would you believe how convincing this was to me? It reminded me of Richard Bach's  Blue Feather ...

Yes,  I hear THE voice within. 
It has always been here!
Now, all I have to do now is align my thoughts with my heart's desires...



 "What signals are you diffusing into the world?"

"Ask and it will be given to you; 
seek and you will find; 
knock and the door will be opened to you.
For everyone who asks receives; 
the one who seeks finds;
and to the one who knocks,
the door will be opened."
~Mt. 7, 7-8 NIV

      I do believe you dear Martha. You are one of God's perfect examples. Your faith and trust in God is a source of inspiration to me :D

      Lots of love!

    Aligning your thoughts to your desires - that's a great way of putting it, Melissa. One book that helped me do that was Joseph Murphy's, The Power of Your Subconscious Mind. Seems like I'm always coming by with book recommendations, huh? ♥

    I've started noticing that thoughts become things. haha hate to quote 'the secret' there but positive attracts positive and well, negative doesn't quite attract positive:) Negative attracts speeding tickets, police and jail time!?! (not me of course :)

    We can have intentions and desires. God will consider it more if we value it more:) And are congruent in our mind, body and spirit.

    I think the fact you're doing the Saturdates with so much enthusiasm and devotion, for example, will bring you more creativity, inspiration, mentorship and joy into your life.

    These kids seem so intense on their projects, by the way!

      Very funny that it does...so I'm looking at all those who come here. I like what you wrote about congruence in our mind, body and spirit. So we talk about 'unity,' 'oneness,' 'wholeness,' and 'harmony' at this time. It brings out everything that distracts and disturbs me. What comes to mind is oneness with God. Everything is in tune.

      Thank you very much for your encouragement Vishnu. The kids bring so much joy and life themselves. Lots of love and God bless!

      Was waiting for this dear daughter :) I thought my fave author is outdated...Richard Bach has a powerful influence over me much like Paulo Coelho does. I think when we see people living their vocation fully, or living out what they write or preach, it becomes easier to believe and say, I can 'also' do it.

      Lots of love Portia and thank you for always coming here to visit me.

    I do believe a lot in those words from The Alchemist. The universe does have a way of showing us where to go. <3 :-)

      I am amazed by this. I didn't know we could use 'universe' or the 'world' or 'energies' to create a path for us. How rich words are :)

      Sooo how are you Irene? I am very sure that the universe is showing you where to go but it also needs our cooperation... ;)

      Lots of love and blessings!

Linking into the 'Blogging and Friends' blog hop at Bongo Is Me and  Living with Food Allergies and Celiac Disease . I met with some friends this day. We've known each other since we were ten and somehow even though two of them already reside in the US, we've managed to communicate all throughout these years. Our traditional lunch at Abe (from L-R: Hazel, Ella, Me, Hazel's parents) 5 May 2012 Sto. Domingo (5 May 2012) Then I went on a date with my childhood friend. I have not visited Him for a while and I longed to see Him (He was waiting for me ). I came home and spent time with my friends online... It was while reading Bonnie's post that I became reminiscent of how my life started in the blogging world. It was January last year when my ARTner and friend for two years in Tagged asked me if I was interested to publish my ideas. I read Fher's blog but made comments on my online journal for discussion. I was a bit hesi

ţlīthā qūm

  ţlīthā qūm Mark 5, 41 NIV I wonder how He said it... Was it similar to a song?... a soft whisper...  la Sua voce serena... tranquilla... 'Nowadays, we couldn't distinguish whether one is angry or affectionate ~ the tone with which we say things are the same...' preached the priest last Sunday. ...He  saw her, he called her forward and said to her,  “Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.”  Luke 13, 12 NIV There's something in This man... His look... His gaze... His eyes... mi penetra... nel profondo... fino all'anima mia... "He reached out His hand and touched the man. " Matthew 8, 3 NIV ...gently... senza timore... ------- I remember a story recounted by one Peruvian missionary nurse I worked with in North Africa. She was assigned to prepare a teenager for his first communion. He not only looked younger but he was quite smaller than his age. He was all curled up because of an unknown disease. His whole body

Of Cups and Dreams

Image
I scooped up TWO EMPTY CUPS before leaving that Sacred place... and whispered something to two Franciscan priests... I woke up and reached playfully inside my pocket to see if I brought them home with me then I wrote Lisa Marie Farfalla about this dream. Empty...cups... It was the night before the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The next day, Corinne Rodrigues wrote  Half Empty or Half Full?  . On the 21st, Savira Gupta wrote something about emptiness:  "Emptiness or a feeling of void is a phase or a moment of pause. A time to observe, understand and digest what I have experienced. It is when I am nudged into looking or deciphering what is meaningful and what needs to be discarded. A time to ponder or be with myself....No judgments or labeling....  Making space for what is about to come" Yesterday, I came across Andy David 's  This Cup of Mine  . Symbols, colors, numbers, dreams ~ Each of us had CUP in mind...  A CUP always represents t
