You have everything you need
Edited on Sun Dec-13-09 11:45 PM by BanzaiBonnie

Thanks to mysticalchick for the lead to Slade Roberson. I've been looking at his website this afternoon. It's impressive.

I especially liked this:

http://www.journeyinpro.com/2007/07/an-interview-with-spiritualist-slade-roberson-shift-your-spirits/

This is a key point from the interview:

PK: If you could give one piece of advice to those wishing to connect to their own angels and guides what would it be?

Slade: Trust that you are not missing anything. There’s nothing “outside” your experience to bring in. There’s no secret ingredient that you’ve yet to discover that’s not already there. The secret shift is entirely your perspective. You DO hear your guides. You ARE receiving divine messages every day, all the time. Release your expectation of what those signs are supposed to look like or what those messages and voices are supposed to sound like. The signs and messages and symbols and nudges are all right in front of you. It’s an Easter Egg hunt — messages are hidden in plain sight. If you feel you can’t hear the answers, step back and look at everything you’re already hearing and start asking “Which of those sounds are my divine answers in disguise?” Don’t discount the really simple, common, everyday stuff — that the answers you seek may be piggy-backed on emails from friends, or a passing exchange with a stranger at a convenient store. Maybe this interview is providing you with one of those answers, right here on this page. Maybe it’s the television show you just happen to catch while channel surfing. Maybe it’s the song that’s stuck in your head. Maybe it’s the bumper-sticker on the car in front of you…
Start wondering. When you go looking for these answers, these signs, these divine communications, preface every thought with “I wonder…”
Don’t expect a booming voice from heaven accompanied by a thunder-crack and an ethereal beam of light. Sometimes, you get these Big episodes — but generally, it’s just not that extreme. You’re not likely to experience many of those bigger-than-life scenarios.
Look at everything in your conscious awareness as if it hides a clue, a piece of the puzzle, a fragment of a mosaic. What magic is masquerading in the mundane? What wonder are you dismissing simply because it seems ordinary? You ARE hearing voices, messages, language — look at everything that represents a voice, a message. Consider all the possible vessels and forms of information you are bombarded with.
Look again at everything that might be speaking to you — it is.
PK: What would you like every person out there know about divine guidance?
Slade: Divine guidance is not supernatural — it’s super-common. It’s everywhere. No one is excluded. You can exclude yourself by making choices based on fear or self-doubt. How might your life change when you decide to behave as if you are divinely guided? Because you are. If you knew who walks beside you, you would have no fear. Whose permission do you require to create the life you want to live? Permission granted — please proceed.

2. Sweet, eh.
For those who feel unsure, just relax and notice what you notice. This is one of the best explanations for how to pay attention that I've ever seen.

And the interview with him is so telling about what those of us who are listening to our voices go through. The doubts. Our ego concern for what others will think. But once we begin to act on what we know or hear, it gets much easier. We can help others. We can make a difference.
