1145415_african_cats_cheetah_3The other night I received a great message through a dream. I was in a valley with tall hills on either side of me. There was a cheetah running on the hillside to my right, and I was scared of it. I thought it was running and going to get me, so I ran toward the hillside on my left. Then I saw more cheetahs running on that hillside too. Then I didn’t know where to run, but I felt fearful. Then the scene stopped, and I got the message that I would get to try the same scenario again with the option of behaving differently. The scene began again—I was in a valley and saw the cheetahs running frantically to my left and right. Even though I thought I should do something or run in case they were after me, I didn’t move. I stood where I was and closed my eyes. I focused on the peace and stillness inside of me. As I focused inward, the world around me faded from my notice and I felt peace. Then I felt a softness on my fingertips. I opened my eyes and the cheetah was standing calmly next to me.

How are you reacting to life?  Are you chasing the things you want fearfully?  Are you frantically searching for answers? Or, are you focusing inward, knowing that everything you need is coming to you?  The energy we send out is the energy we attract.  If you are wanting peace and a feeling of security in your life, it is found by going inward.  All of our needs are provided by the Source of all goodness and beauty.
