Knowing Your Soul Path |
|||||
Question: Do we each have an individual path that
we have already decided upon before our birth or are things changing as time moves on? For instance, maybe God planned to
use us (those of us who pray to surrender our lives) in one way, but with the way things have gone, could better use us in
an entirely different way? What is the best way to serve God and the highest good of all involved? Mary Magdalene: Thank
you for your question. This has to do with the process of what beings decide before taking on an incarnation and how that
affects them in their incarnation. It is true that before a being incarnates on the third dimension—on Earth, as the
example we’re talking about right now—that individual makes very specific agreements relative to what they want
to experience in their lifetime and how they want to serve. They decide how they want to make use of their spiritual gifts
and their spiritual energy, for the greater good of many. This is what you might call living your life purpose. It is a combination
of both furthering your own personal soul growth through your incarnation, and also bringing energy and manifesting for the
greater good of many beings while you are incarnate. In general, souls do make soul agreements before they incarnate. The major events of your life are chosen at that time,
prior to your birth. However, within that there is a great deal of space for your free choice during your lifetime and your
incarnation as to the more day-to-day aspects of what you will be choosing in your life. You also have choice, to a certain
extent, as to the ways you will be fulfilling the agreements you made. So it is a combination. There is free choice after
you incarnate, and it is also true that you have exercised your free choice as a soul prior to incarnating. Some of what you
are experiencing in your Earth life is the continuation and the fulfillment of those choices at this level. However, one of the challenges in the Earth plane is that you do not remember
this process. You do not remember the soul choices you made. For many, it is a confusing process to have clarity about what
your soul path is and to feel confident that you are on your soul path. There are two things I would suggest that are most helpful in knowing and being clear about your soul path, and being
confident that you are following your soul path. One is to be very connected to your heart and to allow your heart to guide
you. This is something that I have spoken about before. I talked about this in depth in the book that I gave through Mercedes, Mary Magdalene Beckons. That
book contains many messages from me about how to be in your heart. This is very important for many people at this time. What many people don’t understand is that it is not simply
about desiring or intending to be in your heart. That must be supported by your very real relationship with your body, your
sexuality, and your emotions. Your degree of development and mastery in these three areas will greatly influence your ability
to be in your heart or not. So I have urged many times that people focus on and become strong in these three arenas, handling
anything that you need to handle that is not full and strong in these areas. The one that is most challenging for people, in general, is the emotional arena and the way that people respond to
emotional pain. I have given great instruction through Mercedes and through the book that she created out of my instruction,
which is available to people to help you in that area. I again urge people to make use of this to help you to stay in your
heart, which will inform you as to what your true soul path is. It’s confusing if you are coming from your mind. Your
mind is important and your mind supports you in many ways. But your mind is not capable of having the kind of clarity at the
soul level that your heart does. This is why being strong in your heart will be a great support. The other reason that being strong in your heart is a great support is because
it allows you to open to your higher self. Your higher self has access to your soul wisdom and your soul path. So once you
are strong and able to be stably seated in your heart, you will be able to make this connection with your higher self. And
your higher self can help to give you the information you need as to what your soul wants you to be doing. It is not so much that there is another, separate being, who you might refer
to as “God,” who has plans for you as to what you should be doing for your soul work or soul purpose in this lifetime.
It is your higher self that will be guiding you. Your higher self is an aspect of God manifesting individually for
you. You will understand over time that God is not a separate being somewhere
else who is directing the play of events here on Earth. Everything that is here, everything that is manifested is an aspect
of God. You are an
aspect of God. All is an aspect of God. Your higher self is the part of you that remembers this most clearly. Your higher
self can help you to remember your God-self and know your path as your God-self. As you grow spiritually, this will all become
much clearer. But for most beings at the third-dimension, this tends to be a confusing area. Opening to your higher self will help you to have the clarity you need. This is a very important part of
the transformation that all beings are in the process of right now. Opening to your higher self will help you to move into
the next stage of spiritual growth that humanity as a whole is prepared to move into and is in the process of going into at
this time. In whatever way you are able to connect with your higher self, that will help you. For most people, this will involve a progression that requires that you first have the ability to open your
heart and to live from your heart. Within that step, there is a progression of doing things that allow you to be in your heart—mastering
the areas of your body, your sexuality, and your emotions so that your heart can open and you can become stable in living
from your heart. On that basis, you will find an ease in opening to your higher self. And your higher self will begin to guide
you. This is the most personal form of your guidance in
God. It does not come from a separate God who is in charge. Your higher self is God, and this is the aspect of God that is most directly accessible to you. I offer you my fullest blessings and love, and support you in your
process. I urge you to strengthen whatever needs strengthening. And of course, I am not just speaking to you. I am speaking
to all beings in saying this, that all may become full in living in their heart and connecting with their higher self, which
will give you the wonderful gift of understanding what is right for you in each moment of living your path in God. Blessings to you my dear one. If you would like to receive more messages like this, ***********************************
