Shifting Perceptions

Messengers:

We have very few, if any, limitations in how we may appear.  We may be animate or inanimate, beautiful or repulsive, impressive or mundane.  We may be astronomically large or microscopic.  We could manifest as a rainbow, a scrap of trash, a sequence in a dream, a rainstorm, a digital impulse on the Internet, a blown fuse, or gust of wind.  The image we project could last a nanosecond or a billion years.

THE EVOLUTION ANGEL



Recently, I have been exploring a book written by Todd Michael who served as a medical director of an emergency room and Level III trauma center.  THE EVOLUTION ANGEL is Todd Michael's documentation on a wide range of experiences he had while witnessing well over 500 deaths.  He reports communicating with spirits or angels or messengers.

The author tells us to always treat others with respect as they may be messengers who are a projection of God.  "We could manifest as a car driving too slowly in front of you, making you 'late' for an appointment.  We could be an animal crossing your path, a retarded person staring at you in a checkout line, a leaf falling into a pond that grabs your attention at just the right moment, a ragged homeless person asking you for money, or a small child smiling at you on the bus."

"For this reason, it is wise to treat everyone as if they were a messenger, a direct extension of God.  Be careful. Any stranger, any living creature you encounter may actually be a messenger.  Don't make a fool of yourself by being rude or aloof to a messenger of the divine."

To discuss whether or not Todd Michael's experiences are fact or fiction, is not my intention.  We are all entitled to our beliefs and I find his information to be most interesting.

What a different world we would live in if we shifted our perspective and remained mindful that God is in every single thing intending to support, encourage, and guide us through our life experiences.  We would never feel truly alone and the fear driven culture we live in would become more optimistic.  If we would open our eyes, truly open them, we would be aware of the magical world surrounding us. 

Two books,  ANIMALS SPEAK and NATURE SPEAKS written by Ted Andrews are wonderful books as a resources for understanding symbolism in animals and nature.  When we have an animal cross our path, and look up the symbolism of that particular animal, our life experience takes on more depth.  When a particular tree or flower keeps grabbing our attention, we can research it.  When the information is applied to our situation, we discover greater meaning and enhancement. 

Divine Spirit has surrounded us with angels, messengers, spirits, nature, and great synchronicity.  Our world "could" be a spiritual playground if we would only listen and shift our perceptions.
