Expect More


We generally get what we 'expect' in life; not what we hope for, not what we wish for, and often, not even what we pray for (say, what?). We get what we expect. The energy of expectation draws things to us. The problem is, many of us expect the worst and hope for the best. Or we expect things to be hard and difficult and challenging. And guess what? You guessed it, they are.

When we expect something is hard to do or hard to overcome, chances are we avoid it. We want things 'easily and effortlessly.' We want things to flow. Yes, we want that, but chances are we don't expect that. And when we think something is hard, we avoid it and struggle against it. 

But we can adopt a 'miracle mindset' simply by replacing the word 'hard' with the word 'unfamiliar.' I love what Pam Grout writes in her book, E Cubed, "'Hard' is a four-letter word that is one of the most dangerous words in the English language. It's especially damning when combined with something you want to accomplish, such as lose weight, change your thinking, attract money, or get a hot date!"

What have you been avoiding simply because it is hard to do or hard to accomplish? I'll bet it isn't hard for everyone, so maybe it isn't hard at all, simply unfamiliar. And we can do the unfamiliar all day long. So, let's give it a try and see what happens.

Wisdom From Ernest Holmes
Because we fail to realize that Principle is not bound by precedent, we limit our faith to that which has already been accomplished, and few “miracles” result. When faith finds its proper place under Divine Law, there are no limitations, and what are called miraculous results follow.
