You know that saying, “be careful what you ask for because you just
might get it”? Well just the other day I
was thinking about that saying and what I realize is that sometimes we get exactly what
we ask for but we either don’t recognize it or we don’t know what to do with it or how
to act when it shows up. It could be money, a new car, a significant other,
etc. Too many times we pray, “God send me a man/woman” but when they show up we
either don’t embrace them or if we do embrace them, it’s only for a brief moment
then we discard them for whatever reason. The reality is if you don’t take the
time to really think about the things that you want and be specific about the
details, you won’t recognize it when it shows up.
Everybody is searching for
something, some more diligent than others, but the fact still remains that we
all want things (a new car, a new home, a spouse, to be loved, a better paying
job, more money, better health, etc, etc, etc.). But unless you take the time to
think about the details and really focus on what that will look like and the
impact it will have on your life, you could very well miss the opportunity to
get what you want or if you do get it, you risk misusing or abusing it. The Law
of attraction says "like attracts like" and "what you think about you bring about" because you are on that frequency. So whatever you ask for you will get but
unless you take the time to envision what you want, it will show up but just
not in the form or magnitude you expected. Confused? Don’t be. Ok here is an
example. Let’s say you want more money in your life and all you say is “Lord send
me more money or make me rich”. Well “more money” and “rich” are so vague. More
money could be $1 or $20. Rich could be having millions, but it could also be having
more friends, being more popular, or just having enough to pay your bills. Or
let’s say you ask for a spouse, “Lord send me a good man/woman”. Again a “good”
man/woman is so vague. Good could be someone who is law abiding, has some sense
of values and a pretty decent person over all, but they lack the ability to fulfill
your desires and could be self-centered and have no clue how to please you.
The universe/God will use their interpretations
of what you asked for based on your life – how you live, the experiences you
have had thus far or your definition of “being rich” or with the men/women you have had in your
life because that is what you think about. I once heard a story about a woman
who grew up in a home where her mom was physically abused by the men in her
life. Her mom kept going from one bad relationship to another. When the woman grew up she told herself she
would never be with an abuser, however she too found herself experiencing the
same things with the men in her life that her mom experienced. Why is that? The
answer is, it is because she focused on the negative experiences she saw her mom endure and she brought it to herself.
Every guy she dated treated her the exact same way her mom was treated. Believe it or not, most times than not people
don’t think about what they want and if they do, they don’t do so in detail. Instead,
they think about what they don’t want – which is what has already manifested in
their lives. Unfortunately, because they think about what has already happened,
they do so in detail which lays the foundation for all their future experiences.
As a result they keep having the same experiences with money, their relationships,
etc. over and over again.
The universe/God will give you
what you ask for. If you are vague, you will get what you’ve always gotten, but
if you give specific details, then you will get that. The fact is the universe/God
needs specific details in order for it to manifest in the form you want it to be.
Yeah I know we all believe that God knows everything and therefore He can read between
the lines and give you what you want. Well news flash, while He is all knowing,
He also only operates out of the desires of your heart. So if you don’t even
know what it is you want, how can you expect him to give it to you? Think about
it. While God desires to give you good things, He is not going to push/force
anything on you. He gave you free will, that means He gave you the ability to
make choices. He allows you to decide whether or not you want to serve Him and to
live a life pleasing to Him or if you want to do your thing which may not be so
pleasing to Him. He does not force His
will on you so He won’t venture to push things on you if you are not clear on
what you want.
So if you ask to be rich
or for a good man/woman, then you need to be clear what it is you are asking
for. Take some time to really think about what it is you are asking for. Be very
specific on what that will look like. If it’s money you want, then how much
money do you want and don’t just focus on the money but focus on the things you
will buy with the money. If you are asking for a spouse, then be specific about
what they will look like physically, their personality, their purpose in your
life, etc. The more details you add the better chance you will have to
recognize the things you ask for when they show up. What you want is very
attainable, the answer is in the details. I’m just saying. I got issues – what
about you?)i(
