The other day I was trying to download a video on my device, but because I hadnt noticed any sign of the page loading, I kept clicking repeatedly on the download button, but still nothing happened. I continued doing this in frustration until I decided to take the time to investigate what the problem was. Only then did I catch sight of the blue download indicator that was quietly running its course, indicating that each time I clicked on the button it immediately started attempting to download. Turned out that it was my impatience which was delaying me...always resetting or re-starting the process each time I clicked. And Isnt that just how it is when we ask God for something? We ask and through His perfect Will, He grants it spiritually in an instant. But we are on earth and so there is naturally a time lapse until its physical manifestation. Unfortunately, it is just during this period of wait that we agitate, fret, fear, lament, complain, doubt, give up and even accuse Him of having abandoned us...yet all the while, these negative attitudes are the ones truncating, delaying and sometimes even cutting off the fulfillments that were approaching. When we ask genuinely and humbly, we must begin to inwardly align ourselves with what we desire, by striving to think, speak and act (in one word Become) in accordance with it. By setting out proactively to prepare ourselves to receive it in trust and faith, as well as being willing to give same to others when we can, we pave the way for the physical unfolding of what Above, has already become deed, e.g. going out with an umbrella if we asked for rain. Next, gratitude is indispensable to receive...hence, in faith we should give thanks for all that is approaching but at the same time, also learn to release it to His Will, to bring forth if/when/how He considers best. Finally, going ahead under intuitive guidance, to do whatever is within our power towards its realization, is necessary to physically receive what we have requested.
