Need is a word you don’t need. Needing is an affront to yourself. When you feel you need, you are feeling needy. Feeling needy, you put yourself in a weak position. Needing is not in your best interest, beloveds. If need is your position in life, then change your position. There are much better places for you to come from than need. Need is the last place you want to come from.
Once you get off your need kick, the whole spectrum of your life will change simply because you changed your outlook. The time has come, beloveds. Get up off that Needy Chair and sit in the chair marked I Have Everything.
Without question, you really need to feel that you have no need. You have wants and desires but not need. Needing puts you in a false position. It is a kind of reverse fairy tale, for the ending is not happy. Stay away from need. It is the last thing you need.
What is wrong with needing, you might ask. What is wrong is that it puts you in the position of a beggar. If you see yourself as someone needing love, for example, you will pick up crumbs of it off the street. You will believe that you are dependent upon a handout from someone else, perhaps even anyone else.
One who feels needy will become a taker, a user, yes, even you. With all your good intentions, as one who feels needy, you take, you contrive ways to be given what you feel you must have and have not received. How much love is enough for you? How much do you feel you lack? How much do you feel you have to have? Change your perception. Turn your life around.
You are not so dependent upon love from the outside as you seem to think. It is from yourself that you need to find love. You already know that I love you with all the love on Heaven and Earth. When you can feel nourished by My love, you will hold more love for yourself. Loving yourself, you will not be desperate, beloveds. When you say you need, you are saying you are desperate. Do not even be desperate to give love. Give love, but be not desperate. Come from a position of not needing.
Perhaps you say you need a job. Fine, go get a job. You will get a better job faster when you do not come from a place of overweaning need. Come from a place of confidence instead. Who needs a needer? Be a giver. You have something to offer.
It comes down to this: Do you see yourself as someone worthy? If you do, you won’t be grubbing. You won’t be a money-grubber. You will not be a love-grubber. You will not be an attention-grubber.
So long as you see yourself as needy, you will be a grubber. As you see yourself, you are.
Better to see yourself as a rich man. This is why you NEED to count your blessings. You want to start seeing yourself as a possessor of good fortune. You want to start seeing yourself as fortunate. You are fortunate. You are reading My words. You are listening to the beat of My heart. You are a Being of God. I am your Father. I am your Blessor. I am your Fortune.
Memorize your blessings, and you will never have to think about need again. Everything is within your own power. Your power is not outside you. It is within.
You say, “God, can it really be so simple?”
I say, “Yes, it can be.” I say, “Yes, it is.” How you perceive yourself is how you are seen.
Those in need grovel. You are not to grovel. My child does not have to grovel. He has only to know he is blessed.
