Life Lessons for Help, Hope, Healing and Happiness
Difficult times
Have you ever had a struggle so difficult that you thought you couldn’t bear it or ever get through it? I have. A few years ago, I went through a difficult challenge in our family. It was something that I never thought I would nor should ever have to go through. My heart was heavy and the burden great. It was hard not to feel depressed and discouraged. I was feeling a lot of self pity wondering why I had to deal with this particular problem. Deep down I knew that I had to think differently, but I just didn’t know how. I read the scriptures and I prayed so fervently. I pleaded for help. During this difficult time, we also experienced a fire at my parents home, 3 floods in our home, my father being ambulanced to the hospital 3 times, and finally experienced my father’s death. Oddly enough, I was actually GRATEFUL for these other “problems” because they distracted me from the REAL problem. Sad, but true. My statement was “we solve a crisis with another crisis.” It was at this time, that my husband and I felt a prompting that we needed to move and move quickly. We didn’t understand the entire reason behind it. We were happy in our home and had not planned to go anywhere, but we knew we needed to listen. It was then things began to change.
A New Way of Thinking
As we moved and began to build our new home, we were introduced to a group that taught financial strategies and investing tips. We began meeting with them and began to learn that the way we thought about money was all wrong. I realized that I had some messed up thinking about money. I lived in scarcity, thinking that there was just not enough to go around; that if someone had a lot of money, then there just wasn’t enough for me; that if I was rich, I couldn’t get into Heaven. All of this “wrong thinking” was beginning to be dispelled through scripture and new insights and reading.
“One Thought”
Then one day in our financial meetings, we were told to watch the movie, “The Secret.” That is when the real change began. As we watched the movie, we really began to understand that what we were thinking about money, life, and relationships was all wrong. One quote in the movie hit me very powerfully. “No matter what has happened in your life, it can all be changed with ONE THOUGHT!” That was the answer—to quit looking backwards and to begin thinking differently. I needed to control my thoughts. I also knew this was the key to helping my child. I just needed to know how to implement it and really make it work.
Some Good Books and A Changed Heart
From the beginnings of that movie, a seed was planted and I was lead (I believe through Providence) to a book called, “The Jackrabbit Factor” by Leslie Householder. I was craving more knowledge and understanding, so I read her other book, “Hidden Treasures.” I began learning the Laws—God’s Law’s, Universal Laws that govern our life whether we know it or not. Leslie taught me how to IMPLEMENT these laws. As I began applying these laws and gaining knowledge, my life began to change. My family changed, my relationship with my husband changed, our financial situation changed, but mostly my heart changed. I found peace. I found prosperity. I found hope. I found a way to help my child.
“You Have To Move—NOW!”
Those were the words that the Lord prompted us with. I didn’t know how we were going to do it, but I knew it was the right thing to do. Oddly enough, even though I didn’t know the “laws,” they were still working in my life. The home we lived in was a comfortable 3,400 sq ft house. It had a full basement and an above ground pool in the yard. We had just redone the yard and were in the process of a huge remodel when we were told to move. I hadn’t even thought about a new home or a plan or the like. I never dared dream for something that I wasn’t going to have, so I never visualized a “dream home.”
Do You Have a Dream? Can You See It?
As we began to have to dream again and design floor plans, I could visualize what I wanted. I was “determined” to get the house I was dreaming of. It was much larger than my husband wanted. With only 3 years left to pay off the home we were living in, he just didn’t want another mortgage. But I knew what we were supposed to build and somehow knew there would be a way to do it. The results were a beautiful new 5,500 sq ft home.
I was using the Laws without realizing it.
As I began learning these laws, I realized that I had used these laws in the process of designing and building our home. These laws had also come to play in how quickly we sold our home and how the Lord truly stepped in when we had done all we could. He sent a buyer to our home on the very day I told him, “We’ve done all we can and we need to know what to do. We need the right people to buy this home. We need your help.” I know first-hand the power of prayer and how the laws work in your behalf when you believe the Lord will answer them.
Along with the new home came a new hope for helping my child. What I surprised me the most was that in my attempt to help my child, I found that I needed the help the most. I had some terrible thinking habits that I needed to overcome. While those were some extremely difficult times, I was able to go from deep despair and pain to one of peace and prosperity.
Are these God’s Laws?
One big question still loomed over me. “Are these God’s laws?” I had found so much truth in what I was reading, but I wanted to know if these laws and principles were founded in the scriptures. I didn’t want to be “on the fringe” in my religion. I figured there was no other way to know that than to search it out for myself, so I began a “reading program” for myself. Each morning I would get up and read from the scriptures. I set a goal to read all cannons of scripture in one year. I kept a notebook by my bed and documented where I found these principles in the scriptures. What I found enlightened, uplifted, and opened up a whole new world of learning. I found so many nuggets, treasures and what I believe are some of the “mysteries of God.” I loved it so much, in fact, that I have continued the same process each year, documenting new things that I have been learning. It has been a powerful journey for me to learn how God’s laws and principles were laid out for thousands of years. And as I have “likened the scriptures unto myself,” I have gained greater knowledge and understanding.
All About Becoming
The greatest lesson I learned is this….we are all “becoming.” I realized that most of us have “forgotten” who we truly are and do not comprehend who we are to become. We have greatness and purpose and a divine destiny to fulfill. When we “forget,” we lose sight and direction and we make mistakes. But we do not need to let these mistakes be “who we are.” We can use them to climb to a higher plain. I also learned that sometimes we forget that others are in the process of “becoming,” too. We expect others live their lives “more perfectly.” We get disappointed when they don’t. By learning these laws and principles, I have been better able to see the good in others and see their potential. I wish more than ever to help others to realize this in themselves and know there is hope and help. I know it is true. It has happened with my child. It has happened with me.
