What I Learned from my Dentist about Living Abundantly
October 04, 2017
Living abundantly can mean SO MANY things! Some people think it's all about money. An abundance of money is great - I love the feeling of increasing my financial security and being able to have fun with money! What abundance in my life do I treasure most? It is the little, surprising things that are meaningful just to me. For example, I had a dentist appointment recently, and the dentist asked me what exciting things I have going on in my life. I figured he really wanted to know, so I told him about a new project my team and I are working on that will include an online course and a coffee table book. With a smile and some excitement in his voice, he told me I was definitely onto something with my idea and topic, and asked me if I knew that there is a scripture in the Old Testament about the topic I shared with him. Before I could answer, he looked it up on his phone and read it to me. Not only that, he offered an insight that I hadn't thought of that will make our message even more powerful! He wrote the scripture from Proverbs on a piece of paper for me, and BAM - I sat there with my bright shiny new smile, in awe of what just happened! I now have a powerful introduction for our online course and book! For me, that experience was living in the flow of abundance...it was like heaven was reassuring me that I am doing the work I am meant to do here. We ALL have our own special purpose in life! Listen and watch for the signs that heaven is sending you. Then take it a step further - ACT on the thoughts and ideas that come to you. The more you pay attention and take action, the more your life will begin to fall into place, or into a "flow." A positive flow.I have definitely noticed big changes in my own life the more I learn and grow and take action. I have learned to take action even if it feels risky, scary, or different. I have learned to take action even if others (including those I am close to) do not understand. Ultimately, I am learning to put my trust in God on deeper levels than I ever knew I was capable of. As that trust grows and expands, my fear, worry and doubt diminish, and taking action becomes empowering because I know He is on my side. Fear of what others think about me has been an excuse for me in the past to not take action. When I let go of that fear, I have more experiences like the one at the dentist. Those experiences are evidence to me that I have what it takes to be what God created me to be and to do what He put me here to do.I practice taking action every day.
