Renewal comes only after devastation has occurred, for new life can only arrive through a process of death and resurrection. When seeking change, or when confronted by change, do not be thwarted by the difficulties that arise, for those difficulties are the trials and tribulations that will lead to something new. There must be sacrifice if there is to be new life.

Let life’s unfolding process guide you onward, showing you what comes next, but don’t forget to be fully alive and participatory, making choices that will lead you out of the potent fires of change and into new experiences of growth. Be strong as an ox, prepared to withstand what comes to propel you forward, but be also as gentle as a kitten when appropriate, enlivening and incorporating all that you are as you take your journey of change.

And don’t forget to look always for the positive notes in each day’s events. As small as they may be they hold the keys to progress. Your Self will thank you, and don’t be surprised if real change arrives sooner than you anticipate!

We are on vacation this week. You might have noticed there was no audio channeling on Monday; Jan totally forgot! And so it was decided that Chuck would not publish a blog this week either; he is taking a much needed break! But our Soulbytes will still be posted every morning, though a little later than usual! Here is today’s:

All birthings are painful. New life takes work. Transformation is the result of a fiery process. Taking life one step at a time is good advice, but it is far better to allow life to show you the way. Even though it may lead you down a painful path, full of misery and mistakes, in the end it may be your salvation. For life is all about learning to be fully human but also about learning that you are fully spirit as well!

One step in the right direction is all it takes to start anew, but then let life itself guide your every step after that, showing you what you need and what you don’t to live a life of fulfillment. All you need do is be willing and stay aware, learning to read the signs and symbols, the dreams and messages, the transformative material that will guide you on your way. Remember: Everything is meaningful.

There are variations and degrees of control necessary to successfully navigate life. Too much control leads to inhibitions and lack of participation in life while too little results in one calamity after another. Both can be equally devastating. Moderation and balance in all things, inner and outer, bring life and self into alignment. And then life proceeds along with a compatible and fulfilling steadiness so that no matter what comes to greet you, you are in a good energetic position to deal with it successfully.

When in the darkness do not fail to remember the light. When fast asleep do not fail to recall waking consciousness. When the mind is overtaken with worry, fear, or hopelessness do not forget the breath of release. Do not forget either that it’s all a dream. You are dreaming all the time. Don’t forget to wake up in the dream you are in and find its meaning. Day or night, awake or asleep, it’s all a dream. Time to wake up!

Upon arising each morning remind the self of the Middle Way and your own path of heart. Seek balance, moderation, and goodness in every step of your day, staying conscious of who you are and why you are there. Your presence on earth matters greatly. Discover the intention of your soul’s journey, finding meaning in each moment, each breath, each thought, each action. When you create your life around the principles of balance, moderation, and goodness you can’t go wrong.
