I receive numerous messages from people who are "struggling" to "make a living" for various reasons.
The truth is life should never be a "struggle", it was never intended to be a "struggle" and we should never have to "make" a living.
The very thoughts and actions of "making a living" and "struggling" will guarantee more of the same, because such a person is focused on the material world as the primary Source of supply. Pushing the physical world around will never result in long-term abundance.
Even those people in the world who are extremely wealthy often began their wealth from a very young age with a dream to be someone great, or to live in an abundant way, and they focused on and lived their dream until it finally became a physical reality.
Other negative factors are thoughts of fear and worry, both of which will cause whatever is being worried about or being fearful of to be "chased away".
I have written about this several times previously in various contexts, but I simply cannot stress enough the importance of the realisation that the true Source of health abundance and happiness is not without, in the physical world, but within from The Source.
Plain and simple - we are all individual channels of expression and experience of the one Source, Who will provide absolutely anything we desire for the asking. If we are capable of imagining it then it is always there for the asking. There is nothing too big in our imagination that cannot and will not be provided with focused thought supported by true Belief, Faith and Gratitude.
Jesus spoke frequently about Belief, Faith and Gratitude, but alas these have been misunderstood to mean "belief" in a deity called "God", and blind or abstract "faith" in the deity "God" or "Jesus" as a "saviour", all totally erroneous concepts in the context of the theology and doctrines of the church, and not what Jesus, real name Jeshua taught at all which was Spiritual Growth and Metaphysics for the most part.
Let us take a look at another of Jeshua's teaching on this subject:
"And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. The life is more than food, and the body is more than raiment. Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls? And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit? If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest? Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith? And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also". -- Luke 12:22-34
How much clearer can this be?
Here Jeshua sets out the truth that we must never toil in the world without, but that everything we could possibly need is available to us from Source, our Father within.
Let us analyse this profound passage in more detail:
"And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on".
Here Jeshua is saying that we should never worry about how we will eat, or find the clothes that we shall wear.
"The life is more than food, and the body is more than raiment. Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?"
Life itself is much bigger than mere physical food, and the body is much more than the physical clothes that we wear upon the temporal physical body. Consider the birds - they are fed from the natural storehouse of abundance without effort - they do not go out into the fields to sow seeds, and neither do they have a barn full of grain, and yet Source, our Father, God feeds them effortlessly, just as they are aspects of himself. He then goes on to say - if God ensures that the birds are always provided for, how much more will God provide for us as human beings?
Jesus then goes on to say:
"And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit? If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest? Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these".
What Jeshua is saying here is that whosoever by thinking or worrying about about how to acquire their needs, will actually acquire them by so doing? So why worry and doubt, and look to physical actions as the solution to needs?
Consider also the lilies and other flowers and plants of the ground. They do not struggle to grow and to flourish, they grow and flourish naturally and effortlessly. Even King Solomon with his vast riches could not appear in the same splendour as these lilies and other beautiful flowers that grow and flourish in all their glory by Divine Providence and guidance of Source.
Jeshua then goes on to say:
"If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith? And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you."
If God clothes the grass which, even though is here today and gone tomorrow in such finery, how much more will be clothe us - we should have more Faith in Our Source of supply instead of believng it must be aquired by toil and sweat and physical means.
We should never physically go out there and "work" for the means by which shall eat, or drink, and neither should we be in any doubt. Even though the people, countries and other "powers" in the World crave after these things, Source, our Father, God already knows we have need of them, just as do the animals, birds, flowers and all other of God's creation, so instead of seeking, striving and struggling for our needs in the physical world, we should instead look within, with true Faith, and then all of our wishes, needs and desires, will be "added unto us", in other words they will arrive into our experience naturally, effortlessly and infinite abundance, because God, Source, Divine Providence, already knows we have need of them here on Earth.
And Finally Jeshua goes on to say:
"Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also".
Here he is reminding us that we should have no fears, because it is our Fathers pleasure to give us everything that we could possibly wish for, need or desire - whatever God has, we equally have.
So have no qualms about divesting ourselves of physical possessions, or giving to others, and provide ourselves instead with our Source of supply that is eternal, and never fails us, and where no one can take it away from us, or where it can decay, because our true treasure is where our Heart is - Within - because we should always know beyond any doubt:
"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened" -- Matthew 7:7-8
Because: "is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom"
