This is in answer to the how of becoming sovereign. This is the nuts and bolts. In every process you are involved in, that you want to see do well, to succeed, you willingly involve yourself in the nuts and bolts of the business.  What follows are the nuts and bolts of the business of becoming sovereign.

 

 

You have been told to ask. “Whatsoever you ask the Father in my name, He will give it to you. Hitherto have you asked nothing in my name.” John 16:23,24

 

 

But you don’t know how to ask. What are the nuts and bolts of asking? First of all, what it is not. Asking is not anything you do with words. It is all too possible to use words one way, and have a totally different meaning in your heart. The language that speaks to the field of all possibilities, which you wish to access, is the language of the heart. This is the energy that surrounds you at any time, that you give off. Your energy field is your asking.  So, how to have an effect on your energy field?

 

 

• First of all, never stop giving thanks.  Give thanks as much as possible, in every situation. Appreciate every little bit you can.  If you want patience, appreciate every little example of it that you see. Even if you can’t think of anything else to be thankful for, you can give thanks for any situation just as it is. Because just as it is, have you brought it into existence, so that you can forgive it, transcend it, just as it is. By training yourself to give thanks for what you previously took for granted, you are learning to fuse giving thanks and taking for granted. This is an important new skill.

• Second, assume you arrived here today. Here on earth, in your present body, situation, location, region, whatever shauri you see yourself in, you arrived here only today. You have no memories of the past to draw on to judge the present and react with fear. You are not motivated to blame anyone. You have no ego to protect, no story to advance.  You see the situation before you in the fullness of that situation. You are able to regard and accept it fully, confident in your Source ability to figure out any conundrum. In fact, you look forward to the conundrums, because you know by now that your Source always has the most elegant, win-win, beneficial solutions.
• This is immense. This is what exists before the race memory of original sin. A kind of clear-eyed candor accompanying perfect confidence. You just arrived here. You will do whatever is best to do in the present situation, to bring it to fruition and highest good. As though you had arrived here yesterday.

 

•  Is it possible for you to both thank for something, and simultaneously take it for granted? Because this is where you need to be.
• When you deliberately try to create a situation, by imagining it, affirming and so on, you try too hard and miss the mark. You need to relax into the role, friend. Instead of willing it to come to you so hard as you do, lamenting its absence, wishing hard, and so on…instead of what you presently do, narrow your focus to one small detail that implied the edifice had come into place. Instead of willing your perfect home to manifest, being motivated, working hard, crossing items off lists and shaking a stick at the sky in all your other various ways, instead of this, occupy your mind with a pleasant problem that implies the manifestation had already taken place.  Will I paint my bedroom in rose cream shabby chic, or bleached sand southwest? In my garden, should I focus more on food to eat, or food for the eye?  Why not both?  And so on.

 

In this way, you change your entire frequency with what is basically a turn of the mind. This little trick is one of the nuts and bolts.

Consider: how does the martial arts expert break a concrete block with his hand? At the moment his hand is going through the block, his mind is already out the other side. He focuses on the bottom of the block, how his hand will feel after the feat is completed. (Analogy courtesy Gregg Braden.)

That is, in his suggestion, he assumes the work has already been done. And how do you feel when something has already been done? You lose all tension about it, it fades into the background, it becomes taken for granted.

And this is the genius shortcut way to creating a different reality: simultaneously give thanks for it, but take it for granted. Relegate it to part of the background by occupying yourself with some loving detail of the reality you wish to see manifest. With love, occupy yourself.

 

God is in the details
