The universe

The universe provides.

I do not remember where I first heard that statement. But it has been the cornerstone of much of my philosophy about life. And In my personal life I can say without the slightest bit of doubt, that it is true.

Whatever it is that you really need, a way to obtain that thing will be provided. Now maybe, when the opportunity comes along, you might decide not to take advantage of it because of how it looks or strings that may be attached. But salvation will always be offered.

Have you ever noticed, that some people just seem to have all the luck? Good things always happen to them and life just seems so easy for them?  I would be willing to bet you money that whoever it is that you see that has their life work that way believes as I do that the universe provides. It is not luck. It is positive thought driven by faith.

A friend of mine always shakes his head when I go on about this because he sees that for me it is truth but for him it is not. And all I can really say about that is he does not have faith in anything unseen. He's a huge math nerd and very logical about things.  We are both very intelligent and know a great many things about the world. But I know there is much more to the world than what can be seen and heard. There are things that can only be felt and directed by one who has faith that things will turn out in an acceptable way.

The best decisions that I make are often made when they are done on the principle of faith alone. It is important to know where you are going and it is important to plan how you are going to get there. But the decision to get somewhere has to come first. After all no person has the time or inclination to plan out every single step of every possibility for what they could do before deciding to do something new. The fact of the matter is that you want something. Declare that you will obtain it. Do not worry about how. How will come along afterwards.  The universe will provide the way if you provide the desire.

What has occurred to me only recently is that in not wanting to seem greedy, I have never asked much of the universe, just enough to get by. And I have been very successful, in just getting by. I was content to just float through life neither rising nor falling, just maintaining.  It has also recently come to my attention that many of the things that I would like to do are not going to happen if this habit and pattern continue.

The universe and I get to have a new conversation.  If you have been reading along with me for awhile now, you may know that, I feel my purpose in being is to positively impact the lives of as many people as I can for as long as I can, as part of a goal to make the world a better place.  Making a few hundred dollars a month is not going to make that happen.  I have discovered that I can do more for the world with wealth, than I can without it.  My desires are changing and as such my results will change. Having found the vehicle that I intend to use to create that wealth, now it just falls to me and the universe to make it happen.  The universe will provide the plan and I will take the action.
