EP 239: Finding Faith When You Think You Dont Have It with Emma

Published: April 8, 2020, 9 a.m.

This is a call about accessing faith when your logical mind has doubts. Today\u2019s caller, Emma, is feeling anxious about not being able to access her faith. She says the mental understanding of God has her optimistic about the future but she wasn\u2019t experientially getting it. And, an uncertain future is exacerbating her anxiety.

A relationship with a higher power can be complicated just like a relationship with people. We can go through ebbs and flows where we are totally into it and we feel it and then there are times when we are questioning everything.

\xa0

Part of the reason many of us feel anger toward God is that we see a lot of suffering. We even see something like the pandemic and wonder if there really is a God. Remember that we are made from the image and likeness of God. The reason there is suffering in the world isn\u2019t necessarily because God or the universe did it, it is our free will that has created what we live with on a day-to-day basis.

The universe, I believe, is always helping us move more and more toward evolution. It points out the contrast of when we are out of alignment with harmony, balance, and love. And as a collective, we have been out of alignment for a long time which is just one of the reasons we are experiencing this difficult time.

\xa0

If we project human behavior onto God or onto the universe it will never make sense to us. We have to see our higher power, without judgment. God/Universe is an all-knowing, all-loving thing. All it wants is for us to know ourselves as it, to know ourselves as unconditional love, untapped possibility, and oneness.

\xa0

We forget that God exists inside of each of us and we live in a world where we are still evolving. You don\u2019t have to earn God. The more we shift into the energy of love, the energy of gratitude, and the energy of worthiness, there will be less suffering.

How can you experience the unconditional love of the universe if you don\u2019t feel worthy to receive it?

Consider/Ask Yourself:

  • What does faith mean to you? Do you feel like you have it?
  • Do you want to have faith but you just don\u2019t feel it?
  • Do you think you are worthy of being loved and supported by God or a higher power?
  • Are you a bit angry at God and the universe and you are not sure what to do about it?
