Discover for yourself
+++++++++++++++++++
The things you know without a doubt are the things you discover and experience for yourself. Though others can guide you, lecture you, persuade you, scold you or encourage you, what becomes a part of you is what you experience for yourself.
Your belief may indeed be strong and unwavering. Yet there is a difference between belief and certainty.
Certainty comes when you actually live your beliefs and put them into practice on an ongoing basis. For that is when you will discover and experience for yourself the essence of their truth.
It is interesting to speculate about what might and might not be true, what might and might not happen, what may or may not work. It is powerful indeed to know for sure.
What you’ve been told is a good starting point. Take it further, put it into practice and discover for yourself.
Honor your faith, your trust, your belief by bringing it all to life through your efforts. Truth will rise to a whole new level when you discover and experience it for yourself.

“Instead of tormenting yourself with questions about the future – what is going to happen to you… what dangers threaten you – or dreaming dreams that will never come true, learn to create your future yourself. Yes, starting today, you can prepare your future. By means of thought, of imagination, you can choose the ideal direction for yourself and can ask heaven for the conditions and qualities that will enable you to appear one day as a being of peace, goodness and light. Even in this incarnation, you will be able to see certain results of the work you have undertaken. But understand that, above all, you are preparing your next incarnations. Because the reality is absolute: you will return one day to this earth, and what you will be, the situations you will encounter, depend on you and how, from this moment on, you prepare your future existence. Understanding this truth is fundamental for your future.”
