With all this talk about our economy, a friend asked me to ask Yeoshua (Jesus) about this so here’s the question and answer: What do you have to say about the state of our economy? The world seems to be in a state of panic over the economy. Do you have any thoughts about this? Is this a necessary breakdown so something better can emerge? Or is this financial crisis an illusion?
Focus on creating good in your own life--focus within...
YEOSHUA: The state of external events and conditions is really irrelevant to who and where you are on your spiritual journey. Focus on you and where you are right now. Do you have enough to eat? Do you have a place to sleep? Do you have clothes to keep you warm? Then if the answers are yes, do not focus your intention on the fear and illusion of lack that is all around us. This will only leave you feeling depleted. Focus on creating more and more good in your life and in the lives of those around you. When many individuals take on this focus, their energy begins to be a rock dropped in a pond that ripples out to those in the community, the city, the state, the country, and the world.
State your intention or prayer that you have all you need always. There is always enough. Affirm the bounty of this earth to provide for every person. Keep this in your heart and feel it. This is the way to change the world—one positive thought-feeling at a time or one vision of peace, love, and bounty at a time. As someone said, “Be the change you want to see in the world.” In order to do this, you must not focus on the fear and illusion and lack that floats around us every day. Focus on you what good you can bring to your life and to those around you. Focus on the love and support. This focus brings about more of this to everyone. As you attract positive energy, it will rain down on everyone in your vicinity. That can only be good. Enjoy watching this process in action. It is fun to witness.

I’ve had some people not want to return my emails or don’t return phone calls and when I ask my intuition for why this is. I hear the answer that they are not ready to hear what I want to share with them or that my spiritual growth scares them a bit. I was confused about this so I asked Yeoshua (Jesus) the following question: Why does it seem like as we move forward on our spiritual paths, that some people turn and run the other way?
YEOSHUA: Ah, yes. This has happened to me many times in my life. Sometimes when you open the cloak and let people see who you really are and let them see how powerful and in tune you are, they run. It is because of this same mirror effect. They do not wish to see how powerful they are so they turn away. You are reflecting something to them that they are not ready to see about themselves so they turn away. It is almost as if you are too bright for them to see you clearly.
Everyone is a mirror of our own behavior...
Just as people can be mirrors for things you need to examine about your own behavior, you may also reflect good things to others. And sometimes the others don’t want to see the good in themselves. It is a dualistic phenomenon.
So, when this happens, send these people love. Keep them in your prayers and hope for their return to your side. This is all you can do. They are on their own journey and there is nothing you can do to help them except send them love. They need to return to you of their own volition. Keep the faith that you are steady on your path and continue to walk and hope that they will return to walk with you. This will happen many times on your path. It is the nature of being a teacher.
Ah, yes. And it is also the nature of being a student. If you are reluctant to be united with a new teacher or set of teachings, be aware that this may be happening to you. You may not be willing to see the good or divine in yourself when you look into the eyes of your teacher so you feel that you want to turn away. When this happens, begin to meditate on opening up your awareness of who you are. Open your connection to spirit and pray upon the intent that you wish to be the best of who you can be at this time. Pray to be opened up gently and in a wonderful fashion. Pray to see the light of who you are and who you can be. Let the door be opened up to who you can be. You don’t need to step through the door.
Just let the possibility exist that you can be more than who you are today. Just opening up to this possibility will allow you to look in your teacher’s eyes and begin a new journey. Be well and be at peace.
