Spiritual Dreaming

dreams do come true…Do you really think for a minute that God doesn’t want our dreams to come true? Perhaps we’re the ones who get in the way, not Her/Him.

OK, so how do we get out of our own way?

I’ll give you an example. My dream has always been to live on a property – a place of beauty and tranquillity where I can produce the food we eat, grow beautiful flowers and trees, overlook a serene lake or river, write, and have others share as much as possible.

Periodically I do the homework to see what’s out there, and for how much. Then I become agitated and upset because achieving this lifelong dream seems a long way off, and I don’t want to be so old that I can’t lift a shovel when it finally happens!

On a recent occasion when I was actually quite distraught, my beloved said something which just stopped me in my tracks. He said “dreams are meant to make you happy not sad”.

Then I remembered! (Every-day spirituality has a lot to do with remembering.) If you have a dream that is worthy, that contributes, or that you have always wanted, this is what needs to happen:

  • Put it out there! – meditate, pray, express your intentions/desires
  • Don’t expect any other person to deliver your dreams
  • Do whatever is in your power to align with your dream every day. By all means work towards it. My mum always said “God helps those who help themselves”!
  • And above all, remember, the ‘How’ of the thing is none of your business! The Universe knows the means by which all things come into being so we don’t need to!
  • Smile! (and appreciate what you already have)

May all our dreams come true (whenever the Universe feels it is time)!

Love, peace and wisdom
