Your spirit calls to you every day. Do you hear it? Like a whisper in your ear, a shout at your back, or a knock at your door? In so many ways your spirit calls. It shows you a glimpse of your true path, your spirit’s path of heart. How many times have you walked right past it, not noticing? How will it call to you today? Has it already come whispering or knocking? Is it finally time to pay attention? For your own good and for the greater good of the world you live in, is it time? It’s up to you.
It’s never too late to change. No matter your circumstances, your ingrained behaviors, your personal issues, you can always change, take a new direction, find a new path. Let instinct be your guide, honed by spirit, your own inner guide that wishes you only well. Calamity, despair, depression are all calls from your spirit, trying to get your attention, urging you to heed the call. Will you do it this time? Will you give yourself an opportunity to turn your life in a completely new direction? It’s totally up to you. No one else can make that decision for you, but they can certainly offer support and guidance, just as your spirit so desperately wishes to do. Spirit is calling right now. Will you answer? It’s up to you.

Here is this week’s audio channeled message, proposing that maybe it’s time to move on. Of course, deep contemplation of what that means is always par for the course. Action is good, but right action is better!
Let your heart be still, your breath calm, your mind quiet. Let words of wisdom come quietly and clearly out of the darkness within yourself as you patiently wait for them to say the right thing. And what is the “right” thing? The thing you have been avoiding, of course, the thing you can no longer deny. It’s time to listen. It’s time to answer the call of your spirit. There is nothing else as important as that!
Find solace in quietude today, for it is only in inner calmness that the deeper self may be realized. There is need for such inner seeking of self and not only now during the times in which you live. This is a truth for all times. It is only through experiences of the deeper self, the spiritual self, that humanity will realize the eternal connection that all human beings possess, not as a gift, but as a reality of being human.
In moments of quietude seek the deeper self, the universal self, and ask for guidance of this deeper universal self, which is the source of all knowledge.
Your guidance will come from within the self, though your outer reality will signal your way. Your direction in life and the necessary steps to discover the deeper meaning of your life will be in alignment with your outer reality.
Perhaps your outer reality signals a direction that will lead you to a new level of awareness or perhaps your outer reality signals that it is time to take a new direction. Your outer reality will approve or disapprove of steps you are considering. You will be offered choices that may or may not be right. How do you choose? How do you know what to do next? How do you know if one step will lead to growth or to disaster?
Inner quietude will bring the answers you seek. The trick is to know just what such inner quietude feels like for you. Seeking inner quietude as often as possible will train your awareness to know what to do. Eventually, you will feel this inner resonance immediately arising upon questioning. In inner calmness you will learn that all the answers lie waiting within.
Often the answer may be accompanied by discomfort because it will, of course, be challenging you to change, to choose something out of the ordinary, to perhaps greatly disrupt the life you have been leading, daring you to face a new direction. Discomfort-in-resonance is perhaps the most challenging inner place to be.
Be aware that such moments are evolutionary ones, the moments when you are fully aware that you must change, that you are being challenged to go beyond the present self. They can be frightening moments, but if you stay firmly attached to the resonance of the moment—the clear voice of your spirit calling—you will find the strength and guidance you need.
Training the self to listen and act on your spirit’s call to change will lead to greater awareness of your spirit’s ways and means of guiding you and you will also have learned a new step in acquiescing to your journey.
Pay attention to your spirit calling you. The call today may be for you alone, a call to grow, but in the future it may lead to the growth of others as well. As we all evolve upon this earth, as we all listen to the truth of the spirit’s call, a greater sense of ourselves as interconnected beings, all desiring the same things in life and in spirit, may arise as a new reality of being human. This is already a known truth: that we are all just struggling to become more than we are; that, in reality, we are all on the same journey, but as humans we become so wrapped up in our personal woes that we forget that we all suffer.
Do not forget that each one of us is on a similar journey, the point of which is to grow in awareness of why we are here. And that is why inner quietude is such an important tool in both our spiritual practices as well as in our lives in the world. Through inner quietude the two worlds may merge and we may begin to flow through our lives more seamlessly each day.
Find inner quietude, heeding the spirit’s call, as often as possible. Find the calm self and the calm mind and let the knowing mind of this state of being human guide you. We are all readers of infinity and our training is in our own lives, in the circumstances that make up our realities and the choices we make.
May you find quietude and make a decision based on your spirit’s call today. Even if it is only a small or seemingly insignificant shift in self-awareness, such a step may offer more than you can imagine. It may release you from the place you now find yourself so caught in. Change the inner self and find how easily the outer self grasps at the opportunity for a new and different life as well. If we are hungry for anything, truly that thing is change.
