Expectations for Good

Our minds are constantly working for or against us and we must ... guide them into the channels of good ...

 

Everyone has a way of limiting the good in his or her life. We all seem to put limitations on our good fortune and what is the question? Why should our good be limited in any way? Why are we able only to see ourselves receiving limited good? Can we not condition ourselves into the expectation that everything is good and that we can and should only expect the good things of life. Yes, we can and we should, for all our expectations whether good or bad fulfill themselves. We do not realize that this is so, but it is indeed a truth of life.

We get what we expect and what we deserve and no one can keep it from us for long. It behooves us then to think well of ourselves for we are the creators of all that happens to us by the action of our minds. We have within us potent weapons of good or evil, and we must rightly use them and correctly expect only good will come to us by their use.

Our minds are constantly working for or against us and we must take the reins and guide them into the channels of good and constructive ways of life. This does not at all mean that without physical work you can by mind and thought alone achieve all good. The two must work together for the result that will bring to us our ultimate heaven on earth.

The peace and goodwill also of others towards us must come about both by our sincere desire to bring it about and our work in that direction; and so it is with all desires, no matter what they may be, we must expect them and then work for them in whatever manner or means is best for us to achieve this good. 

Also we must be sure that what we so ardently desire is right for all and will in no way injure another for only in this way can we bring about our good and have right prevail. Expect, Work, and Have, are the trinity in this case that works for each one and all.

Expectations

We make our own experiences as we need them and as we react to the events and circumstances of our lives. 

 

What we expect in life has a great tendency to come true, if we hold to it fast and truly believe. I do not mean that because we may desire wealth that it will automatically be ours because we expect it. Oh no, we must also work with our desires if we expect them to bear fruit. Mere wishful thinking will never produce the results we desire.

Have you ever heard someone say that they are sure they will die from some disease? Often this actually proves true because, by that person’s expectation of it, he has drawn it to himself. We make our own experiences as we need them and as we react to the events and circumstances of our lives. As someone has so aptly stated, “It is not so much what happens to us that counts but our attitude towards it, and reaction counts everything.”

Suppose we find a great disappointment in life -- what then? Does it break you up completely, or do you take it in stride and say, “Well, it just wasn’t to be?”  What a world of difference in these two attitudes of mind. The results too are such that it is almost impossible to see just how far reaching in a life this could be.

Watch yourself that you are not crushed by circumstance and fail to stand up to life and its challenges.

Changes Bring Changes

 

Look forward to change and great blessings from the God-power within always working to bring about better conditions for us in our lives.

 

Changes bring changes. After all, life is but a series of changes in every department. We must always welcome change for we know it is for a purpose and only in this way can we grow and live. We would not wish to stay still no matter how desirable our present state of being and environment appears to be, for there is always room for improvement. 

Although change does not always mean improvement, if we are living in a high vibration and expect only the best, only the best will be attracted to us.

What we are and what we have today has depended upon our thoughts and actions of yesterday. And so it is that the future stems out of our past and goes on brighter and more fair if we have so decreed it for ourselves by our life. 

If it is otherwise and we find illness or lack in our life, we know that somewhere along the line we have erred. Then we must change and about face in order to rectify that which is negative in our pathway and obstructing the good that should be coming into our life.

We cannot blame others for any condition in which we find ourselves, but should realize that we are often the instigators of the negative instances that have materialized in our lives. 

Look forward to change and great blessings from the God-power within always working to bring about better conditions for us in our lives.

Listen Within

“Be still and know.” is a good admonition. 

 

We all have what might be referred to as telephones or wires within us that are capable of being utilized by the Spirit world if we plug them in, so to speak. In other words this simile is meant, of course, only to show that we can, if we so desire, commune with Spirit. 

However the discourse or the mental pictures can be only as good as the instrument. If we persistently clog the channel with refuse or mental negation what can we expect in return? We will only get out what we put in, no more no less. But the opportunity is still here and if we keep on trying one day we will be surprised at the clear channel and the information possible for us to receive. Ours is the challenge, ours is the opportunity for good or ill as we see fit. All inspiration is so conceived whether we believe this to be true or not. 

“Be still and know.” is a good admonition. Quiet the outer and listen to the voice within and see the mental pictures that may present themselves to more clearly point the way or to show you what you can expect in the future, or even to warn you of danger so that you may be prepared. 

Wonderful are the opportunities given to mankind to use if he but can realize that he possesses them. Use and gain, not abuse or allow to remain idle, and so we leave you to ponder these thoughts.

Never Give In

We must never give in to any form of negativeness, but always keep trying and our problems will be worked out. 

 

There are in life many subtle influences that work on us at all times, making sometimes for indecision, weakness, futility, and their opposites too, strength, power and positiveness in all forms.

There are times when, as we say, the tide is out and nothing seems to go aright, while at other times it may be flood tide and all seems to break for us in all we attempt to do.  

Should we then adhere only to these specific times to do what we feel is what needs to be done, or wait until we feel the tides with us? No, our own mind will often prevail and throw off the adverse powers if we are strong enough in our desires to make the will work for us in spite of obstacles put in our path.  

We must never give in to any form of negativeness, but always keep trying and our problems will be worked out. It may be at times more difficult than at another time, nevertheless we should not let that or anything else deter us from our objective. 

We should be masters of self and that is what all are working towards no matter what he or she may think to the contrary.   

We can and we must keep going no matter what happens so that we can win the battle over self and triumph over adversity, using it only as a stepping stone to our goal. We have much to gain and nothing to lose by this attitude so keep going, lift up your eyes unto the stars and know that you can win.

Expect the Best

We get what we expect, so only expect the best and at the same time work too toward that goal.

 

As a man thinketh in his heart so is he and it cannot be otherwise for, in truth, this is a mental world. All now in manifestation has come from thought -- someone’s thought. We think therefore we are. And so we go on in the life always expressing our thoughts, and although we think that they are ours alone and not seen or expressed, they are always influencing us and those who come in contact with us.

What we constantly hold in thought eventually is expressed in the life in some manner. Therefore we must weed out all negative thoughts whenever they enter the mind, keeping only to the positive thoughts whether we can feel them at the time or not. Eventually we will feel the thought if it is constantly held in the mind.  

Now this is no easy task we know, but the result is so much to be desired, so wonderful for us, it fairly staggers the imagination at the accomplishments possible if we hold to this truth.  

We are all gifted in some way and practice makes perfect. Our desires will become manifest if they are held to and all negation eliminated. 

We get what we expect, so only expect the best and at the same time work too toward that goal. With this combination you cannot lose.

Master Plan

 

 

 There are no accidental successes or failures in life. It is all as we ourselves decree and must be worked out by the self within.

 

There is a master plan for each and every one of us and we are even now unfolding and working for this plan and towards a wonderful goal.  

We are, of course, masters of our own destiny and receive from the laws of being our rewards and our punishments through this law of cause and effect. Many do not see that this is so and feel that justice is not done, but in every case it is, although it may not be detected by us on the earth plane of existence.

We are constantly receiving and constantly causing others to receive through our efforts. In many cases, of course, the reverse is true. Many are losing out in the battle of life simply because of past injustice that they have meted out to others.  

You see it is all taken care of and we cannot really judge another because we do not see the whole picture. Therefore we cannot know all the causes of his or her seeming failures or difficulties in the life. 

Many suffer because of the injustice of others, but eventually their good will come to them if they are deserving of it. Many, you know, will only learn through their troubles. In good times they feel it is only their just due and fail to give gratitude for their worldly goods and their gifts of talent or whatever they have developed. They themselves are responsible for both their troubles and their good although it is often very hard to see that this is so. 

There are no accidental successes or failures in life. It is all as we ourselves decree and must be worked out by the self within.

There are also times when seemingly all we do is right and brings to us all we could desire in life. This is because we have earned this or it would not be. 

Everything works well for those who work in the light and keep themselves in the light of God and prepare to work out their lives with this as their goal in life.

Reaping and Sowing

 

We all reap what we sow and there is no such thing as luck or really of accidents as such either.

 

Those who harbor hate, resentment, jealousy, envy and kindred emotions carry a viper in their breast. They know not the terrible damage they do, not to others, but to themselves.  

God’s laws are not mocked, justice does prevail, and punishment is done to the physical as well as the mental of the one who allows thoughts of these low vibrations to come into his or her auric field.

We all reap what we sow and there is no such thing as luck or really of accidents as such either. They are caused by the laws of cause and effect and all people benefit or reap disaster according to their true inner life which always, in the final analysis, manifests in the physical in some manner.  

Of those to whom much is given, much is expected. At some time in the life they have been desirous of better things and, if deserving, the Spirit loved ones have worked out for them conditions that will bring into fruition that which is their innermost desire. If the contrary is true then, “Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord,” and in due time it is brought out, because it is only in this fashion that the person will eventually learn the laws of life.  

Love is the first law and truth is its star.

The Law of Attraction

We may not always wish for that which we receive, but be not deceived, it is deserved or it would not come about.

 

We feed our mind with the thoughts we entertain. The law of attraction is in evidence here and we attract to us that which we actually and fully expect. 

We may not always wish for that which we receive, but be not deceived, it is deserved or it would not come about. 

Thoughts, as you well know, are things and can be seen on the Spirit side of life by those who are adept at reading the thoughts of mankind. If the desires are such and the life of the person who entertains them is a good life, then many times, the desires can be and are fulfilled. 

But if, on the other hand, the person involved is of a low vibratory order and has evil thoughts, then no matter how strong the desires they cannot be achieved because he must first overcome all the evil in the mind. This is a law and no one can offset it.  

We all are subject to laws of life and all receive what is deserved whether it appears to be so or not. Sometimes we see an apparent victim of the evils of others, but in some way he or she has placed him or herself in a vibration where this is possible to come about and then it must be worked out both by the victim and the victimized. 

Life is never all a bed of roses, or we would not be placed upon the earth plane where the ofttimes hard lessons of life must be learned.

Mind Power

The mind power of most people remains untapped, like a mine containing diamonds in a vein yet unreached. 

 

The mind power of most people remains untapped, like a mine containing diamonds in a vein yet unreached. We do not reach these treasures easily for they must be earned, must be worked for because in no other way can they be attained.  

Once we have even a glimpse of the wealth of power they can bring to us, we will not rest until they are obtained, and yet we cannot struggle too hard for them. We must become truly quiet within in order to get to the depth of the mine of the mind. 

Then when we suddenly, or following a long period of quiet times, finally arrive where we can tap this rich vein of the spirit, we know we have arrived. There is then no doubt, no fears, for all becomes clear, lucid and we can read the thoughts of others and see and diagnose their ills. 

Indeed there are no secrets, no thing that will not yield itself to this hidden God-power so much desired, so much sought for by those who are truly wise. “Seek and ye shall find. Ask and it will be opened unto you.” Admonitions, yes, and we seldom take them to heart and truly believe them as we should.

Deep quiet pools of thought yield rich treasure.
