We look to, and learn from, those who have overcome adversity and have shown true grit in their lives. Those who have found within themselves, the way to move forward through crises and hardship, are witnesses who inspire us all, whether they are aware of the example they are setting or not. 

In big ways or in small, through overcoming myriad problems, whether it be addiction to sex, drugs,  alcohol, job and financial issues, health concerns, overweight, relationship issues, mental health problems — the list could go on and on — those who have shown courage and fortitude, perseverance and determination to get through, give us hope that we can find our way through that which impedes us. These ones often report that they have a belief and trust in God’s power abiding within them and that they were motivated by the love and support they have from others. They say they could not never have overcome their problems alone. 

Many speak not of will power, but a yielding to a greater power that they have found within. My challenges on earth when I was there in human form, my calling, my mission, was to give those who were suffering under the minute and often paralyzing rules and regulations of the dominant Jewish religion, the knowledge that they have available directly within, the Holy Spirit who would free them and alleviate their suffering. I said I would be with them always, even as I left the physical plane, and I have kept that promise. I am with you in spirit, now, dear one, even this day.  

I said eons ago …" I speak not of Myself, but the Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works.” And I am saying that still to you who are reading this. Let Me join you there in whatever challenge you are working through. Let Me be that support that guides you, shows you the way and moves you forward in whatever challenge you are facing at this time. Together, we will bring the power of living love to bear on the situation,  as you turn within to Me — even if you need Me on a moment by moment basis — I am there for you. I am that One who will give you the loving, helpful support you need. Divine wisdom and intelligence will lead the way, with living love shining its light, as God’s meaning for you.  Turn to Me now, dear one,  I am here. I love you dearly, and know that you are never alone.
