What do you believe? The answer shapes what you experience. When you shift your belief, you shift your experience. If you want to do this, here’s a little exercise to help.
Take a look at the thoughts that are creating barriers throughout your day – the excuses and limitations that are keeping you from your dreams. Write down these beliefs that are holding you back. For example, “I never have enough time” or “ I never seem to fit in.” Once you have your list, replace each negative belief with a positive one. “I don’t have time” becomes “I have all the time in the world.” “I don’t fit in” becomes “I am extraordinary and one-of-a-kind.” Or perhaps, “Life is full of suffering” becomes “Life is a sacred opportunity to experience love.” See how expansive your new beliefs make you feel. Realize you have the power to choose them.
When we choose more expansive beliefs, it becomes obvious that unlimited potential is at our fingertips. Each moment offers infinite possibility to create a higher dream. And then we realize that our old beliefs were steeped in a lot of fear, and we can have love instead. In fact, I believe this is what we’re here to do. Choosing love is the spiritual journey.
The problems that directly affect our lives are showing us our fearful beliefs. They are ours to take responsibility for and heal. And this starts on the inside. We must go within and find where we have created each discordance – each opportunity for growth – and then heal it with forgiveness and love. As spiritual healer Dr. Hew Len teaches, you can do this by saying the following words: “I am so sorry. Please forgive me. I love you.” When I say these words, I feel that I am curing the root of my problems – my belief in the absence of love. And, as Dr. Hew Len teaches, we can do this with any problem we see in our reality. That’s right, all the discord in the world. Whoa.
You see, the work that you do to heal yourself helps all of us to heal. This is what the Christian story of Jesus is all about. He showed humanity how to get back to love, starting with each person, from the inside out. When you love yourself as much as you can and forgive your human mistakes, you do this. When you believe in yourself with an open heart instead of fear, you help transform us all. This is one of the most important things you can do with your life.
When you leave this world, your loving beliefs are all that will remain of this temporal experience. You see, life is a precious opportunity to see how we’ve been denying ourselves love so that we can accept more of it. When we do, we remember that this is our natural state. Finally, with grateful hearts, we recognize ourselves again. And at last, with sublime awareness, we get back to God.

Suzy,
Knowing that unlimited potential is at our fingertips is a truly sobering and liberating thought. Although it may take many lifetimes to realize this amazing truth, expansion in the here and now is something we all ought to embrace.
Timely message in a world that so desparately needs this message. Thank you.
Thanks for your insightful and thoughtful comment!
So when we change our attitude we change our beliefs. Than we begin to look for thing to supports our beliefs and that shift our experiences!!! OMG!!! I have never looked at it like that. Thank You!
I absolutely love the way you point out that things will support our beliefs. What a great way to put it. My favorite experience of this is synchronicity – when the universe speaks directly to us in uncanny ways. Thank you for being here and Sharing the Spiritual : ) ~Suzy
Faith is a quantum leap from believing what you see to seeing what you believe. it brings the soul to the experience of truth beyond reasonable doubt
I love the way you put this! Beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing your insight here and being with us.
To me, faith is the ultimate trust. I can say that my spiritual growth skyrocketed when I began trusting myself and the universe. And then life’s magic made itself known absolutely everywhere! ~Suzy
thank you, Suzy. you must feeling WOW! with your life.
Suzy, I agree with you. After many years of earnest ‘spiritual seeking,’ one day I spontaneously blurted out the word “trust.” Ever since, I dropped all my ‘seeking’ and learned to simply trust my Self. And like you, boy has my journey gone ‘turbo!’ Thanks. :)
Awesome to hear! Your blog is Beautiful and resonates deeply, kindred spirit:

BELIEVE in yourself! LOVE yourself! These two are life’s greatest lessons for each one of we beings here in these human suits. Enjoy every moment of this life, yes it may seem difficult at times and it may look dark at times but on the other side of that unbelieving is a wonderful life waiting for us to believe in ourselves and to love one another.
