Experience, conviction, and knowing one's self...

Tuesday, March 30, 2021

People may ask you why you have this or that belief or conviction about your life — your understanding and feelings about things.  They are looking for convincing reasons that you put forth that explain your conviction. There are those who base their beliefs on scientific data, or on what the latest authority or celebrity has told them, or on tradition, or what their parents, or society, and/or the media have put forth as reasonable to believe. Then, there are those who say, “This is just how I feel about it. This just rings true to me. I know myself and I know this to be true.”

I am encouraging you to trust in your own experience, dear one, to be in touch with who you really are, your true identity.  Conviction into the truth of your life, your feelings and understanding in what you belief and trust to be true, is best known through your own experience, dear one, and then looking inward for the truth from Me, or your own spiritual guide. 

The key phrase here is looking inward. You cannot know about yourself specifically, without looking inward to your own being. As you do turn inward, you will turn to the Wholeness of you, the Transcendence of you, and to guidance and understanding from Me, One who loves you and knows you intimately— better than you know yourself, dear one! I am directly there to help you see clearly what is right for you. I tell you, we are inextricably intertwined as One! 

To join within to Me is to join with the wisdom and spiritual reality of who you are. If you do not turn to this foundational truth of your being, you will be as a branch cut off and blowing around with what ever breeze comes by—adrift like a tumbleweed. Your choice will be to “ go along and come along,” with the latest spin or blowing from the mainstream dominance or media—something outside yourself.   

Your conviction into the truth of you will come as you experience the outcome of what is being given to you, from guidance, dear one. It will feel so right for you, and even if it seems far from what the obvious or typical response would be, you know it has been perfect for you. Conviction into your truth will grow, dear one, as you join within to your Wholeness, your identity of Oneness with your Creator/Sustainer. Base your feelings, your conviction and your forward movement on our relationship of Living Love, God’s meaning  for you, and as you, your true identity, always. I love you dearly, and know that you are never alone.
