In my last post What Is A Guardian Angel? I shared a channeled message from the Council of Light. In today’s post, I’m sharing another channeled message from the Council of Light on the topic of PATIENCE, a trait many of us lack in the western world’s fast-paced society. Although, I have to say, even in the western world, there are plenty of slow-paced areas, and I’m grateful to live in one of them 😉—but that doesn’t mean it’s any easier slowing down! When you’ve been conditioned to charge through life at top speed, always doing and never just being, slowing down is an adjustment, but a welcome one, at that.

Patience

We often come to tell you about patience. It’s not that our words go unheard, but that you find them hard to follow. Where you are in your time/space reality, patience is not promoted or cultivated easily. Your world is fast, busy, noisy, and you have become so used to it that when a suggestion is made to go against what you are used to, it meets resistance. (I know I’m guilty of that!) We understand this resistance, but do you?

Often, your resistance is a refusal to change. Sometimes it is from a lack of knowledge. And sometimes it comes from fear. Can you imagine living your life at a slow pace, taking your time, feeling slowly, thinking slowly, speaking slowly? Can you imagine not having what you desire within the time that you call ‘convenient’?

Your world is rife with convenience, and that makes you more impatient. The more you want and the faster you want it, the further you get from patience. What if we told you, you could have exactly what you want, the thing you want most, but that it would take several of your years? How would you react? Not very well, for most of you. (Yep, that’s me!) So you draw things to you that come more quickly, but that aren’t what you truly want. You settle, and you accept less, because you do not want to wait. Why is this?

Have you asked yourself why you settle for less because you cannot wait? If your dreams were a day’s journey away, yet right in front of you were some pretty good things that caught your eye, and you thought, ‘Oh, these will do. Let’s go for it!’ And you forget about your real dreams because they take more effort or take longer to arrive. Are you selling yourself short? What is it you truly want? Do you want your dreams, or do you want whatever is available right now, even if it leads you into hardship or struggle or difficulty?

What Does Patience Mean To You?

Think about this for a moment. Think about what patience means to you. Do you have the time for it? We see how your physical body reacts to the idea of patience, how you have trained it to react. Your training hasn’t helped you. Then we see how your physical body reacts to the idea of having something now, not wanting to wait. Either way, you have trained your body to tighten up, to tune into chaos, because you believe you aren’t getting what you want if you have to wait.

But, waiting, and slowing down, will help you see more clearly, to decide that what you have right in front of you, the thing that you got because you couldn’t wait, is not, in fact, right for you. But it is right for you, of course, in showing you it isn’t right. However, there is something better for you, if you can wait. Find out if you have patience as one of your spiritual gifts with a Reach Your Potential Intuitive Reading.

Value comes from waiting. Joy comes from slowing down. Burdens are lifted when the pace is slower. But only if you can free your mind from the idea that you cannot wait. Why do you believe that something is wrong if it does not happen soon? We often tell you “soon”, that your thing will come soon enough. (OMG! I hear this from Spirit so often!!) But what is soon? Soon does not exist except in your mind. You put a limit on how long soon should be and when soon never arrives within your time limit, you think that something is wrong, or that you will not receive what you want, and you give up, or you get angry. (Um, yes, I’m guilty of having a tantrum or two 😂.)

Do you see the value of waiting yet? We want to teach you how to wait, but first you must let go of your idea of time. The thing that you want will come to you when you are ready for it. How soon is that? Only you know the answer to that, because it comes from you. You place a time limit upon many things, which limits you, restricts you and stops you from realising what is possible.

Imagine if you had waited a long time for the thing that you most want. You would have avoided all the things that came to you in a short time. Those things that weren’t really what you wanted and that led to struggle or difficulty would never have arrived. You would have avoided so much struggle and difficulty, and you would be glad you waited. But, where you are, that is not how it is for you. At least, that’s how you perceive it.

You can change your reality, though. You can live in a different reality from all others. You can have patience, and you can wait. And your reality will be just fine. So, how does that sound to you?

That sounds amazing to me, but also hard work 😂, but how does it sound to you?
