Surrender

“Spiritual work is a continuous willingness to let things go as they arise.”~ David R. Hawkins What is possible when one continually surrenders? We find happiness within us when we make letting go a part of our life process. It is part of our divine nature to be happy. It is a choice I make everyday. You can choose to embrace your divine nature to be the joy you are, in-spite of life’s challenges. The past several months have been a journey of surrendering at a whole new level for me. I let go of a relationship I had held onto for years. I let go of a business that I had spent seven years building. I let go of my perception of what thought I wanted to create. I let go of writing my book, blogging, and being on the radio. Most of all, I let go of “trying to make things happen.” I am a mover and a shaker. It is in my nature to get things done, shake things up, and make it happen. I know when to push and  I know when to let go and trust. Well I experienced a whole new level of surrendering that has brought about an unshakable peace within me. Just when you think you are doing great, God says, “wait there is more! I can give you so much more! If you are willing to receive.”  I completely surrendered myself to God and allowed myself to completely trust my higher self to flow with spirit. I connected to a deep sense of peace and love for myself. I gained a greater appreciation for my life and those that have been apart of my life experience so far. I learned to love the unknown instead of feeling uncomfortable with it. There is so much knowledge gained through surrendering control. My message to you this month is to practice surrendering more than you have in the past. Here are some steps you can take to learn how to let go and surrender. 1.Make a conscious effort to feel your feelings as they come up, acknowledge them, and surrender them to God. As you go about your day recognize how you deal with your feelings. Do you acknowledge them? Do you do something to distract yourself so you don’t have to feel? 2. Write in a journal. Writing brings awareness of our true feelings and opens the door to inspiration.Keeping a notepad by your bed is a great way to start writing. Technology is used so much on a daily basis. Writing is great way to detach from technology and connect to your true self. 3. Write your negative emotions on a piece of paper and burn it. This tool allows the energy to be transformed into something else. 4.Do visualizations. You can visualize yourself in nature communicating with God. Feeling that connection through visualization can help you to feel safe to let go and surrender your worries, emotions, and thoughts over to God. 5.Write affirmations down and hang them around the house. One of the affirmations I have posted on my bathroom wall says,” I take the path of least resistance.” It is so exciting when you live the affirmations you have been saying for a while!!! Surrendering allows you to flow with your life experiences.You will find happiness in your daily life as you practice surrendering. This is the path that allows you to flow with life instead of fighting it. Some experiences we have no control over and some we can create. We can have peace and happiness in both. We can gain knowledge and understanding of the mysteries of God through the art of surrendering. Surrendering sometimes means we need to ask for assistance. After we have done all we can, we let go, and trust the angels will come to assist us. One of my angels is my friend Dr. Eve Agee. Eve is a life coach and the director of her coaching academy. You can learn more about Eve at www.eveagee.com. I had worked  hard for many years trying to overcome my financial struggles with raising four children on my own. I found myself exhausted from the journey and didn’t realize how hard I had pushed myself to succeed. So I reached out for help. After the first session with Eve my life started to shift. The things I had been working on to create in my life showed up faster! My income doubled and I received inspiration on what to do with my business. I also began listening to my affirmation CD everyday from my phone. I am now living those affirmations I created on the CD. WOW! Powerful changes occurred when I surrendered and was open to receiving assistance. This was a very humbling experience for me. I am usually the one who is supporting everyone else. Surrendering and opening up to someone allowed me to receive more in my life. I received more money,love,happiness,inspiration,and trust in God. I discovered giving and receiving are the same. It feels free to give and to receive. Another gift that I received through surrendering was becoming  better at co-creating with God. Learning to be a creator is part of our divine destiny. Many people practice the law of attraction. The law of attraction is a great truth, however, there are higher truths available for us to receive but only if we seek them. If I want to know how to create I ask God directly, then I listen for the answer, or message he sends me from others. When we are in alignment with God, surrender control, remain detached from the outcome, everything we create comes to us effortlessly.

Dreams Come True

I have wanted to go to the Redwoods for several years. Well, an unexpected trip to California landed me right in the middle of a dream come true.Do you find yourself wondering if some of the things you want will ever happen? To be honest I ponder that question often. I wonder why somethings manifest so easily and effortlessly and why somethings take time or never manifest. What is the  secret to manifesting what you want?  I don’t have all the answers. I find that manifesting my dreams is a constant learning process with God guiding me along the way. I always leave room for his dream for me to manifest and do my best to stay out of the way. I realize I am limited in what I can see to bless my life.That is when I align myself with God’s will and surrender. There are also times when my Heavenly Father reminds me that it is essential to my spiritual progression to learn to be a creator and to manifest what I want. Balancing these two important lessons keeps my faith strong and allows me the freedom to grow as a woman of God. Here are some of the tools I use to manifest my dreams: 1.Journal Writing- The first step in manifesting is listening to the personal revelation you receive for your life. I will begin to write out my feelings and what I am going through. Then I take time to listen to what experiences Heavenly Father would like to bring into my life and write it down in my journal. Writing is taking the spiritual(inspiration) world and bringing it into the physical(journal) world. God created everything spiritually before he created it physically. 2.Vision Board- I use a nine square vision board to list the things I want to manifest. I hand write some of the items and use photos. I put three easy items, three difficult items, and three outrageous items that seem impossible. Your vision board should have different levels so you can reach beyond your limitations and create what you think is impossible,possible. I teach this method in my coaching programs. There is scientific evidence on why this method works. I won’t go into the details with you now, however you can contact me if you would be interested in learning more about it. 3.Visualization- Guided visualization is another tool to help us manifest what we want. Our mind doesn’t know the difference between a visualization and the actual experience. It accepts both as reality. When we visualize what we want our mind, body, and spirit has that experience in that moment. It is taking that spiritual inspiration and bringing it into the physical body. We have to believe it is possible before it can happen. 4.Trust- This requires us to completely trust in ourselves, our Creator, and the angels to assist us. We have to let go and trust that it will manifest. You need to realize somethings will manifest instantly and some things take time. I have also discovered that what I want to manifest changes and I have had to learn how to be flexible. Sometimes I take things off my vision board and change it. I know God is in charge and he doesn’t want to limit me in any way. I am the one that needs to stay out of my own way and not limit myself. 5.Meditation- Learning to become still and listen to your soul through meditation helps us to find the creator within us. There is a power within us that is capable of creating worlds without end. We are children of God. We have the same power he does. There is a deep humility that arises within us when we find this part of ourselves. It is beautiful awakening of our truth. 6.Expect the Unexpected- My dreams always come when I don’t expect it. This is what  makes the journey of creating so exciting and fun! I love it! 7.Accept the Gift with Gratitude- Everything is a gift from God. You created and manifested your goal or dream through the power of God. The power of God that is in you and the power of God Heavenly Father shared with you to create and manifest your dreams. Each time I receive the gift of a dream coming true, my heart opens wider to receive God’s love for me. From the simplest desire to the biggest desire I praise God for his hand in my life. Walking in the Redwoods with my granddaughter is a dream come true I will cherish forever. I didn’t know I was going to California until I few days before the trip. My life was extremely busy and I had worked 72 hours a week reaching a goal for a career change I decided to make. My anxiety was high, I was exhausted, and my life was in transition.  I got a call from a family member who was taking a trip to California  to see some ill family members.They wanted to stop in Idaho to see me along the way. Their car wasn’t in the best condition to take a long trip.The next thing I knew I offered them use of my car to finish the trip and I was on a road trip with them to the California Redwoods. This was actually NOT the best time to take a road trip, however when what you want shows up, you take it!! Things don’t always show up exactly how you imagine, but they do show up in mysterious ways.It was a great bonding time for me and my granddaughter. The healing that occurred after one day on the beach and in the Redwoods did more for me than anything else I did all year. Even though it was a short trip the experience is something I will hold onto forever. It wasn’t just another item off my vision board. It was a dream come true!

Secrets to Manifesting

 

One afternoon I was sitting quietly for a moment listening carefully for inspiration for my life. I wanted to hear something that would guide me to the next step for my life. I have desires I want to manifest that I know would be essential for my spiritual growth. I asked God to reveal ways I may be blocking myself to receive blessings from him. Limiting beliefs came into my awareness and I released all negative thoughts. I heard God’s voice clearly. His words of love, comfort, and truth opened the door to receive blessings I desired. I then felt something so powerful come over me that my heart swelled with humility and gratitude. I have discovered truths that have helped me manifest the desires in my soul. I desire to share them with you.

1. Knowledge of Who You Are. You have to know you are a powerful creator. Through this knowledge, you will be able to manifest what you desire. Manifesting your desires helps you to embrace your God Characteristics. Being a creator requires you to give up being a victim of circumstance and blaming others for why you don’t have what you want. When we align ourselves with God’s will, we draw upon his power, the power of angels, and divine love to create from our free will. Desires from our soul are selfless, pure, joyful, peaceful, loving, expressions of our spirit. When that expression of spirit is manifest, we are manifesting the glory of God within us.
2. Detach From the Outcome. Set the intention with faith, have no doubt, and let it go. Believe with your whole body. Begin with your thoughts, allow yourself to feel it in your heart, and embrace it completely in your body as though it has already happened. When we detach from the outcome, we don’t have to figure out how, why, or when it will manifest. It is a state of knowing it will happen in the perfect time for the highest spiritual growth of everyone involved. Let go of how you think it is going to look and you will open the door to receive it. When you FEEL something is possible and you allow the energy to be FREE of the outcome, it manifests quickly.
3. Let Go of Limiting Beliefs. Get out of your own way. Become aware of your self-talk and release negative thoughts that limit you. The universe is always working to support you to become all that you can become. When you do not resist this process, you open the windows of heaven to enlighten your mind and support your soul’s desires.
4. Ask a Question. Begin your day with questions and allow the universe to unfold the answers. Here are some examples: How can I help someone in need today? What can I do to make someone feel loved and supported? How can I be open to the miracles of today? How can I show my love to others? Asking the questions allows you to give up HOW the desire is going to happen. It also allows an opportunity to trust God and the universe. We become open vessels for God to manifest through us.
5. Rejoice in The Blessings of Others. Feeling joy when others receive what they desire creates a ripple effect in our own life. We receive the same joy they have, if we open our heart to it. Celebrating other’s success dissolves feelings of envy or jealousy. There is enough for everyone. There are blessings JUST for you. It is God’s way of saying I am here, I hear you, and this is a blessing just for you, from me.
6. Make Someone’s Dream Come True. When we can become answers to another’s prayer or support their dreams to come true we will receive gifts from God in miraculous ways. Sometimes we receive our desires when we support others in receiving theirs. The true gift of manifesting is giving and receiving through divine love.
7. Gratitude.Lifting our heart in gratitude to our creator is the greatest power we have in manifesting our desires. We are in the glory of God when we express gratitude in all things. The light and glory of our spirit shines bright and lights the path to receive more.

Embracing our God-like qualities to become a creator of our life is our divine purpose. We take steps in this process by letting go of our negative beliefs, embracing our power to create, and supporting others and ourselves with love. It takes practice so be patient with yourself and enjoy the journey.

Love and light,

It is ALL Good

Yesterday my daughter and I went for a two hour walk. During that time I was sharing that everything has a positive outcome. Even if you make a mistake somehow the universe will turn it into a positive experience for your soul’s growth.   I have realized over the years that it is impossible for good not to come! It always does! There are always blessings that come from every experience.  I have no more judgments of bad or good experiences because what seemed to be bad always turned out good. There is the constant force of light moving us forward to grow spiritually to evolve and embrace our divine nature. I have experienced a powerful loving energy that supports me to expand into Christ consciousness when I live in gratitude for every experience. When you make a conscious choice to see the positive in every situation, there is a miracle that awaits you, if you will listen to spirit and be aware.

When you change your focus to the positive in your life,  inspiration, solutions, truth, and understanding comes. There is good in all things.  Doors of opportunity are open even when you can’t see them. Love, abundance, peace, and joy is available the moment you are willing to stop resisting and accept it.

There is immeasurable value for you and your experiences. It is for your growth and the growth of everyone around you. BE THE ONE who will choose to see the good in everyone and everything. We are all connected and we touch each other’s lives whether we are aware or not. When we support ourselves and each other with positive thoughts and words, our souls are nurtured.

The universe is always, always, always, moving us, guiding us, and supporting us to see the Divine in all things.  It is all around us. It is in us! It is our soul’s purpose to receive good, to learn from good, to remember we are good. All is good. All is God. Opposition is the big illusion! When you face the opposition and focus on the good, the opposition loses power.  The miracle of peace comes and spirit can move freely to guide you in the direction of your highest good. Surrendering to the spirit of God without resisting or attempting to control, opens the door to the peace within. It’s your choice to get discouraged or pulled down from opposition or rise up and rejoice in your blessings. What will you choose today?

Love and light,

Johnna Andrea Tuttle
