Cinderella and the Prince

God said:

You conceive obstacles. Certainly, you bump into them, yet, if you didn’t have the concept of obstacles, would they exist? Potholes might exist, but, then, would they be obstacles? Yet, when a pothole would loom before you, you may well say: “Oh, no, an obstacle in my path. What an annoyance.”

We have spoken plenty about letting go of the past. Today We will talk of another kind of letting go. Now We will speak of letting go of the future, or even the present. I ask you to let go of the idea that something has to be a certain way you conceive it.

Naturally, you want your path to be smooth. Then acknowledge smoothness rather than roughness. Perhaps you thought you could get where you want in one day, and it takes you seven days to get where you want, does that have to be a problem? Do you have to aggravate for what you see as a six-day delay?

If you thought you were going to have one day at the beach, and somehow it turned out that you had seven days, you would consider that a windfall.

Once again, it is revealed that obstacles are a state of mind, not a reality. Obstacles exist, yet they exist as you say so. Cannot life be okay whatever it looks like?

What if the world considered delays a wonderful thing? What if you were congratulated for taking longer than you thought you would? What if the last one to come in from a race was considered a winner? You might feel that the world had turned topsy-turvy. Yet, isn’t it time that life in the world changed its presumptions and did turn itself upside down?

Give Me one good reason why everything is to stay the same, or everything or anything is to go by your prediction or predilection. Life is not a foregone conclusion. Life is how it turns out. If you would like life to go smoothly, then get out of the way of it. Don’t you be an obstacle. Don’t you object.

Work is often considered a drag. What if work were looked at as the privilege that it is? What if you looked at your job as a privilege? What if you looked at your life altogether as a privilege? Would the world not change? Would not your world change?

What made the unfortunate Cinderella who lived in the ashes become a Princess? The Prince saw her for what she was and not what her stepmother had designated her to be. You may say that Cinderella had the advantage of a Fairy Godmother to dress her up to look like a princess. What if Cinderella’s thoughts were her Fairy Godmother? What if your thoughts were your Fairy Godmother and revealed the truth of you? Would not your mice thoughts turn into coachmen?

The Prince did not preclude Cinderella from becoming the Princess she truly was. He let go of world thoughts. After he had danced with Cinderella, he did not have a list of what he required in his future bride. His one requirement was that the glass shoe fit. It could be said that the prince was not being too fussy. He simply wanted the real Cinderella.

How fussy are you? How accepting or rejecting are you? The stepmother and her two daughters were rigorous about what life had to be. They even cut their feet to make them fit, but, of course, to no avail.

Both Cinderella and the Prince let go. Cinderella let go of the ashes, and the Prince let go of protocol and convention. What will you let go of?

CINDERELLA AND THE PRINCE

DEAREST MAESTRO, ALL KNOWING, ALL LOVING, ALL SHARING GOD OF LOVE,

Good evening, dearest SPIRIT !! This Heavenly Letter is fabulously apropos and so specific to each one of us on the planet now.

Oh, I know that we dream we're here, even tho' WE DEFINITELY ABIDE WITH YOU IN HEAVEN. Yet, this letter is such a gift

regarding obstacles in our path now. YOU SAY, "SURELY OBSTACLES EXIST, BUT THEY EXIST AS YOU SAY SO."

SO, then surely it's up to us to announce that any obstacle can be smooth, and NOT ROUGH !! AND SO TODAY I SHALL REMIND

MYSELF THAT OBSTACLES ARE TRULY A STATE OF MIND AND NOT A REALITY. It's also great fun to contemplate

the idea that we CAN AT ANY MOMENT CHANGE EVERYTHING FROM WHAT THE WORLD UP TO NOW SAID IT HAS BEEN.

What if , as YOU say, the last one in a race were considered a winner for a change! Why does everything have to go by our old

same old, same old predictions? Let's be like Cinderella. her thoughts were her FAIRY GODMOTHER !! She let go of what was

seen then as part of tradition. She decided to make all things NEW !! HOW EXCITING IS THIS LETTER, THE WORLD IS

SUDDENLY A MAGICAL PLACE BECAUSE WE SAY SO, AND BY YOUR GRACE IT IS!!!

This is basically the quote

This is basically the quote I put on Twitter from today's Heavenletter:

What if Cinderella’s thoughts were her Fairy Godmother? What if your thoughts were your Fairy Godmother and revealed the truth of you? Would not your mice thoughts turn into coachmen?

Let go and rise to the top!

Letting go has been one of my most recent lessons. It took me six months to come to terms with the possibility of losing my home, and then I decided it was OK either way and let it go. Every day I said 'this could be my last day on earth and I refuse to waste my precious moments thinking about a bank and a loan and interest rates!' I started sleeping fine, and smiling all the time again (my normal nature is happy), and then magically, my lender sent me the paperwork showing they had renegotiated the interest on my loan and it is workable for me! Thank you Lord, but either way would have still been JUST FINE.

This is such a marvelous

This is such a marvelous posting. You certainly have read Heavenletters well.

Letting go

What a beautifully written comment. I couldn't have said this better than you. And you and I are in similar circumstances. I have surrendered it all back to God, as it was never truly mine in the first place. I'm unsure as to what or where our future lies. I just know that what ever happens our family will be ok. We lost a home many years ago and our greatest joy was each other. It still is. I'm happy your circumstances have turned out this way. Letting go is tough stuff and letting go is also a blessing, as you have shown with what you have written.

This is one of those lessons

This is one of those lessons everyone has to learn something from.
I know I certainly have!
Thank you so much for sharing it and may you always be blessed!

Love,

Which Disney Princess Are You?

This morning before reading my email, I was messing around on Facebook and took a quiz called "Which Disney Princess Are You?" And who did I get? Cinderella! At first I thought it was silly.....thought well I guess I really am a dreamer! Then I read this Heavenletter in email and was pleasantly surprised. One of those synchronistic things I never could have planned. I printed this out and will reread it. Thanks Heavenletters!
