Here is the third question in this series. I belong to a Yahoo Group that is centered on studying Mary Magdalene and recently I offered the opportunity for them to ask questions of Mary Magdalene or Yeoshua that they wanted answered. Mary wanted me to gift them with this to say thanks for honoring her in their own ways.

Question: When will the burden of debt lift from my shoulders so I can get to the business of my true calling, which I believe is helping others?

Mary Magdalene: There are many on earth right now feeling as you do that you have great burdens of debt upon you. It seems as if you can’t get out from underneath this giant rock. I understand. I would like to open your mind up to a new perspective. It may be difficult at first but here it is. This burden of debt is actually a beautiful gift given to you and created by you. You gave this gift to yourself so you could learn something.

Change your perspective...

I implore you to look at this situation as if you are above it or outside of it. Take a third person’s point of view. OK—now if you saw yourself in this situation from afar, what would you think of the situation? Would you see how it all came to be? What choices were made that brought this situation about? What limiting beliefs or feelings of not deserving the great things in life created this situation and continue to keep it in place? What would you tell this woman if you met her on the street and she asked you for advice on her situation?

Only those things brought into the light can be changed.

Accept this situation as a gift. Ask spirit what lessons you are to learn. Ask what limiting beliefs brought this about and then let those beliefs go. There are several ways to do this. Write down every limiting belief you have about finances. Write each one on a separate slip of paper. Think hard and give yourself plenty of time to do this activity. It’s worth it if you want to get out from underneath that rock. Here’s an example:

• I don’t deserve to get paid well for my work.
• I don’t deserve to pay all my bills on time and still have money in the bank.
• I don’t deserve to take a nice vacation every year.

Do you get the picture? Write these all down and even take a couple of days to do it because more ideas will come as you fall asleep or are in the shower. Now, take each one in your hand and stand either in front of the fire or a shredder (please make sure you handle the fire safely if you choose this method), say to yourself, “This is no longer who I am. I choose again.”

Shred the old belief or burn it in the fireplace. Once you have completely destroyed all of the old beliefs, you are ready for the next step. Feel how good it feels to let go of the limits you placed upon yourself from the past. Maybe some of those old beliefs weren’t even yours. Maybe they were from your parents who grew up in the Depression or things your brother or sister said to you. You can let go of them and create something new for yourself now.

Good—so within a few days of the destruction of old beliefs, sit with a fresh piece of paper in front of you and write new beliefs for yourself. Use paper you love and your favorite pen. Burn a candle and play music as you dream your new reality into being. This should be fun and wonderful and new.

Feel the energy of the waterfall bringing you abundance...

Examples of new beliefs might include:

• All of my needs are met abundantly for me now and always.
• I gratefully accept abundance into my life from this day forwards.
• The universe is conspiring to fill my life with abundance.
• I accept and give thanks that every month my bills get paid, my debt decreases, and I still have money in the bank.

I think you get the idea. Write only ones that you feel comfortable with. If they feel too good to be true and you can’t say them out loud after you write them down. Try again and word it in a way that feels more comfortable. As time goes by, you may outgrow even these beliefs and will want to write new ones. That is a good sign that you are on the right path.

Once you have your list of new beliefs about abundance and wealth, tape this to your wall where you can see it every day. Or put it next to your bed so you can read it every morning or every evening. This is an excellent practice and things will shift for you within 7 days. Yes, I said 7 days. You see the underlying principle of all of this is that money is only an expression of energy. As you shift your energy about money, the money around you shifts. Things move in your favor as you send out more positive vibes about money and your relationship with it. This is your life. Start creating it now.

My blessings are with you as I will watch to see you come out from under that rock and into the light. Enjoy the journey! Namaste.
